Privacy mode as mentioned by others, I just came here to add a screenshot showing the option in menu and description shown in-game.

This was asked a few days ago as well and just by scrolling down the Ask the community category I found this,

Perk or addon.

They do ban cheaters permanently. That claim of a week makes no sense, where did you get that amount? EDIT: Missed the theory above this post which mentions the number. Easy Anti-Cheat gives hardware ban on 3rd ban as far as I know and since that is being used as anti-cheat solution on this game they also manage the bans…

Yes, anti-cheat is a thing but like most anti-cheats it doesn't ban instantly when someone cheats but at a later date. This is a thing because it can fool cheaters to think that the cheat isn't detected and also makes it more difficult to develop cheats because they don't know if you get a ban or not for using it unlike…

HOW TO REPORT A PLAYER You may only report things that happen directly to you or in a game that you were in. Reporting for other people is not allowed and these reports will be discarded. (ie. Reporting someone on behalf of a friend, streamer, or other) FILL THE IN-GAME REPORT An In-game report MUST be made. This is not…

It was a thing way back in the day. But when it was moved to weekly thing the announcements stopped being useful. https://help.steampowered.com/en/faqs/view/7016-8AFD-19F7-F397 - they also have this FAQ on their support portal. Since you can disable Steam overlay either globally or per game basis there wouldn't be a system…

Are you sure that is the case? Because it seems load cosmetics from your point of view and switch to their own cosmetics during the trial for some, including me. https://forum.deadbydaylight.com/en/discussion/280076/everyone-in-the-lobby-is-wearing-my-cosmetics

Yep, all of the survivors have same clothing selected as I have on my own survivors.

In-game they are using whatever cosmetics they have chosen themselves, it's just in lobby where it uses the clothes selected by the person whos point the view is from. Items and charms are also originals, while clothes are clones.

Screenshot as requested. PC, Steam.

There would be match ID and game engine assigned unique ID for players ("Cloud/Player ID" in game settings). I am curious what you mean by "couldn't get their steam links because they changed it before I could load it." part? Does Steam load current URL or old URL which might become invalid if gets changed once or more. To…

Usually when you are getting this error it means that your Windows install is broken. Have you tried reinstalling your Windows?

The description text says merciless victory, not 4k. What I usually do is to leave a survivor or few into dying state 1-3 times just to make sure that I get enough emblem score for merciless and this method also allows you to get it even if one gets the hatch. If you try to do a quick speedrun it wont work, allow the…

You can only receive crowns on the original killers and survivors. Licensed killers and survivors cannot obtain them due to licensing issues, same with custom cosmetics and skins. The licensor has to agree to the customizing of their licensed content first.

Yep that explains one part of the puzzle, different ISP and very likely different router and/or modem as well. Only unknowns after those would be server you get connected to by the game and if you have any other users in the same household using the same connection for other things while you are playing the game.

Internet Service Provider.

Sorry I missed that part. Forgot to ask, do you have same ISP or not? That can have some variable to the ping as well.

Then it's up to the connection type and load on the household/connection. Different routers can also affect things a bit. You still haven't specified if you use wired or wireless connection. Or you just get connected to different servers, because this game has servers in several locations and doesn't always connect to the…

Ping is mainly dependant on distance and after that the connection type, connection load and device comes in play. For example if you are using fiber optics with wired connection and no other clients on the same household/connection gives you the lowest possible ping, assuming location is close enough to the server. Then…

That's the thing, I don't have any details on this. I am asking for other player experience here. I am not trying to submit a bug report due to missing key information. Only had to fix my files around 3-5 times since I started playing in November of 2016 but I am pretty active on helping other players on the forums and…

I know all of the solutions, this is not an ask for help with an issue but a feedback about issues that players, including me, are having. I have personally tested multiple PCs and hard drives. No issues there.

The errors seem to point towards your graphics card and because there aren't a certain action causing the issue but rather happening at random it could be your hardware or graphics driver and not a bug. Unfortunately the matchmaking bans for leaving are issued no matter what, even if you get kicked out without any action…

What error does the crash reporter pop-up say? It could be specific to your hardware and/or software.

Long time ago around the time when in-game store was introduced there was a bug similar to this. When purchasing items your older items would disappear or the item that you purchased wasn't visible, until you launched the game again and everything would be there and fixed. I thought this was fixed already, you should…

If you are on Steam there was or still is a bug with Steam overlay making the mouse movement in-game very sluggish and slow. Installing Steam beta (from settings in Steam) fixes that, unless the live build is already updated with it by now. I had to install beta yesterday to be able to play properly.

You can use resource monitor if you are using Windows 10. https://forum.deadbydaylight.com/en/discussion/comment/856286#Comment_856286

NOTE: We do not control anything that happens outside of Dead by Daylight. This includes private Steam messages/groups/names, PS4/XBOX messages, Discord messages, Twitch/social media interactions, etc. Anything that occurs on these platforms must be reported to the respective authorities.…

On consoles the game downloads data after you launch it, especially on first launch. The game modes remain locked until the download is fully complete.

The feature would also make it interesting to learn from others, for example I play more hide and seek compared to the nascar style that most seem to do, just running around in circles (best described by Humble Bundle years ago in a bundle page if anyone read that text, I forgot the exact text). Most of the time I manage…

Are you sure it was Twitch icon? Cross-play players have a globe icon next to their display name. As far as I know you cannot directly link your Twitch URL to be clickable in-game so people just set it as their display name instead. And if you reach some unknown to public number of followers or other factor you may ask for…

With the nurse rework the addons were changed, and one of the common ones makes grunts of pain louder after a successful hit. Did you check for that? It threw me off a bit because so many reworks changed a lot of addons in very short period of time. A dull, partially rusted and stained metallic spoon. Confiscated from Room…

This is a Steam downloading issue, possibly caused by corrupt download cache within your Steam files. The error message is from the anti-cheat software which wont allow you to play with wrong file version to prevent cheating. Nothing can be done with game updates or fixes since both above aren't caused by the game itself.…

Platform related speculation on the licensing part. If you want to restrict access when outside of testing period you would have to revoke access. And to revoke access you need to control it using a license to access said content. Guessing the restricted access was more valid point when save files were still saved locally…

I am guessing its mostly because of the platform choice. They are correctly using the beta feature provided there. And having separate library item brings licencing issues for the platform in use. Would be a hassle to issue, revoke and reissue it. Not really sure how to keep it there permanently and out of the 2k games…

The game can still end so it wouldn't be holding the game a hostage. The survivor can just go to an exit gate instead and the killer have option to close the hatch, hit the survivor and forfeit hatch or chase the survivor if they decide to go to the exit gate assuming the survivor is visible to the killer. The only way of…

Your save file gets copied over to PTB a few days before PTB is available. Anything you do in the PTB will get deleted once PTB ends and your live build profile wont be affected by PTB at any time.

That is a perk called Borrowed Time. It activates if the person doing the unhooking has it and is inside the killers terror radius. So to prevent that from happening you should either be far away from the hook or wait 15 seconds before hitting the survivor which got unhooked. What I do is to go after the rescuer instead…

Twitch shirt? Sure, why not. The Fog Whisperers already have their exclusive charm. It also makes it easier to use your own name rather than a billboard type "streamingservice.username". Rest of the shirts? Don't know how the tournaments worked or will work for those, probably shouldn't allow everyone to have them if they…

This happens about 80% of the time when I let go off generator while repairing it. There is already a function for it for the Overcharge perk, you are allowed to tap the generator and move away while doing skillcheck on the move. While it is not intended to generate a skillcheck while you stop repairing and move elsewhere…

I have the same issue. And when you close the overlay it still briefly plays previous audio from the moment it got muted and takes a few seconds to sync up to present audio status. For example if I open overlay when I get hooked for the first time, chat or browser the web, then get saved it still plays killer heartbeat as…

The different versions of DirectX support different functions and the exact version is required to run certain functions required by this game. This isn't a thing where higher number equals better of the same thing but a thing where new version contains fully reworked functions and isn't backwards compatible which is why…

I just recently got a 1440p monitor and did a fresh Windows install too. On first game launch the game had already defaulted to 1440p for me. It just doesn't scale the game to 1440p like other games do so it looks streched on a first glance. You can verify that by opening the configuration file with notepad or similar.…

The wording on that one causes confusion. For progress towards that achievement you have to have survivor step into your trap and after that you have to pick them up from the said trap. The grab is mandatory, if you attack a trapped survivor or they escape the trap it wont count. Did you pick up a trapped survivor more…

You can send additional player reports such as video here: https://support.deadbydaylight.com/hc/en-us/requests/new?ticket_form_id=360000942011 Note that in-game report is a must to verify that you are reporting the correct player and the match did happen. More information can be found here:…

You can create backup for both either manually or using Steam and then switch between them that way. https://support.steampowered.com/kb_article.php?ref=8794-YPHV-2033&l=

I think they are fine as long as it shows the player names with acceptable quality so they are readable. I have noticed that Twitch archived broadcasts tend to be lower quality than the actual broadcast often but if you download the video file itself (only can download your own videos) it's higher quality then. But it…

There currently is a bug that if you switched character in the lobby it shows that in tally screen instead of the correct one, also no perks.

You can see the dependencies listed here, https://steamdb.info/app/381210/depots/ , and for those you should consult the instructions listed here, https://forum.deadbydaylight.com/en/discussion/153/master-fixes-and-general-guidelines To find those the Shared Install Depot folder path is by default C:\Program Files…
