How do I change rendering API to bypass this error?
So apparently the new upgrade to Unreal 5 is causing an issue with my video card. Despite what this error message says, my card cannot be have the drivers upgraded as it's an older card and 22.6.1 was the last update released for it. So, how now do I change the rendering API, or is this going to be a constant thing every…

The idea of "Quitting new content until all current bugs are fixed"
So, I see a lot of people say this…. That BHVR should pause all new content and concentrate only on fixing bugs, but… it's not that simple. I've tried using analogies to restaurants to explain why it's different, but… nobody seems to get it. So I figured I'd open a discussion here… maybe others who understand why this idea…

PSA and Plea to BHVR: The Killswitch does not apply to anyone currently logged into the game.
So as my title says, the killswitch does not actually disable anything until you log out of the game and log back in. Now, I am not telling you this so that you can abuse it, i am tell it to you as a warning as tonight, a full six hours after the Bloodshot Eye offerings were killswitched, my friends and I went up against a…

Iron Maiden music and Twitch!
So I just found out via Sammymjay that the Iron Maiden skins include Iron Maiden music in the lobby, which hey that's cool. BUT this is an issue for streamers who cannot use the skins without a DMCA strike. Oh wait, they can turn on ANONYMOUS mode and then they are fine! Huh? Anonymous mode? Why? Why is the DMCA toggle…

A friendly reminder that the vocal minority are not the majority.
The developers of of Dead by Daylight (and nearly every other popular game) get a lot of hate because they seemingly don't listen to their community. But we here on the forums, those on social media, etc are not the majority. Developers have many avenues that they look to for design changes. I play another game that had a…

Do Auric Cell Purchases on PTB Carry Back?
So, never actualy done so, but since the Store IS technically active on the PTB, if I were to buy a skin on the PTB , would it carry over to the Live servers, or what? Similar, what if I were to buy new Auric Cells while loaded into the PTB?

Problem with the Adam Challenge in current tome?
So I and a streamer friend both were trying to do the DIversion challenge, and multiple times we threw our pebbles immediately after a survivor was hooked and... nothing happened. I was doing vault locations and she was doing generators and... nothing... So, I've never used Diversion before and so what are we doing wrong?

How many games have you "thrown" trying to get Release Them All?
As the title says, how many games (so far) have you guys thrown trying to get this stupid Haunted Tome challenge of releasing 3 haunts in a single match? If it wasn't mandatory to get enough points to complete the event, I'd skip it. This is seriously making me angry, especially as I seem to be the only one in the matches…

Note: Lethal Lollipop is a Purple!
So today I bought some AC and got the new Haddie outfit. I DID see "Lethal Lollipop" on my screen when I purchased the AC, but...I couldn't find it until I realized even though it shows as "event" colors in the pop-up, it's actually a purple.

Tome Challenge: AVOID all other survivors until after they are injured, then heal them.
The title is not the name of the challenge, but it might as well be. Seriously, what is this challenge? If you happen to "reunite' with all 4 survivors while they are uninjuried (or spawn together) then you CANNOT complete this challenge.

The one thing Killers do that STILL annoys me and always will...
So, for the most part I've reached a point in Dead by Daylight where I am there to have fun. I play the way I want, and I expect others to do the same. We might not always agree on what is fun, and that's okay. Hard tunneling me? Not fun for me, but no salt to you if that's how you wish to play. Face-camping me? Not fun…

Why not force a restart as part of the Killswitch?
So like the title says, why not force a restartt as part of the killswitch? Maybe let us finish whatever game we are in, but as soon as you get back to the lobby screen, you get an error that says the killswitch has been implemented and you must restart your game? The fact that so many players can and are just staying…

Accessibility problems and avoiding certain Killers.
So, as we all know, certain Killers can be problematic for certain players. Plague for those with Etemophobia, Clown for those with Claustrophobia, The Doctor for those like me who are autistic and suffer from sensory overload are just examples. I understand that just a straight "I never want to face The Doctor" toggle…

Does Dead by Daylight even HAVE a canon?
So, a streamer I am friends with wants a simple yes or no answer this this question: "Are the new Legion comics canon?" I have tried to explain to her that Dead by Daylight lore is a multiverse, so there is no one single canon. Even the in-game lore with Tome #3 contradicts part of The Legion's origin story. I've tried…

Killer Vision Bug: Legion Party Crasher (Julie)
Platform: I am on PC, but the issue was first mentioned to ME by a console player. So seems to be universal. Step 1: Play as Legion using Julie's "Party Crasher" skin. Step 2: Enter a frenzy and start running. Her hood cuts into the FOV as she moves her head from side to side, obscuring a large portion of her vision, not…

What's your favorite Nicolas Cage movie?
Ghost Face: "What is your favorite Nic Cage movie?" You, quoting Nic Cage: "That's one of those questions, that's impossible to answer. You can't limit it to just one." *Suddenly you feel a knife at your throat.* Ghost Face: "Looks like Susie wants an answer too... I'd hurry up if I were you." So, Ghost Face and Susie are…

2000+ Hours and I Still Don't Know How the Bloodweb Works!
So, I've been playing for 2000+ hours, and yet every time a new character comes out, I have to become familiar with the bloodweb before I am able to use the new auto-complete feature. So, how DOES The bloodweb work? Okay, jokes aside, I totally understand needing to become familar with the bloodweb for new players before…

Haddie's Masquerade Mask Graphical Error?
Platform: PC at least, but I assume all. Steps to Reproduce: Play Haddie with her Masquerade head. Description: So, it seems there is a strange graphical glitch with Haddie's hair on the Masquerade mask. It seems that there is an extra section of hair just off to the side and down a bit. Overall I love the look of the…

Disappearing UI - Survivor DCed during Mori
Platform: PC Step 1: Perform a Mori. Step 2: Survivor disconnects during the Mori animation. Result: The UI never returns for the rest of the match. Characte was Legion and Perks were A Nurse's Calling, Coulrophobia, Lethal Pursuer, Terminus. Addons Broken Pin and Iridescent Legion Button. Map was Eyrie of Crows.

Noir Claire Legendary, Please!
Can we please get a Noir Claire Legendary? You have a great relationship with Capcom, so please make it happen! Maybe you are already working on it, and if so then thank you! If not, I am a Claire main and I will instantly buy this outfit the day you release it. (Was just playing Resident Evil 2 for the first time since…

A survivor disconnect should count as a Kill for Adept Purposes!
Multple times I've done very well, gotten a +2 Pip and yet I didn't get Adept Dredge because some salty survivor DCed halfway through the match... so I get only a 3K. Also, that's the even worse ironic part... before this latest patch, I got a +2 Pip which would have meant I got the achievement anyway.

Stop saying "Spaghetti Code" as an insult to game developers, please.
The very nature of programming is that it's complicated. VERY complicated. When you make a change on line 12,456,774,778,999 it can have an effect on line 22,565,335,666 which have nothing to do with each other and why did this change affect... doesn't matter it did. So then you have to scour the code and figure out that…

PSA: Actually read Scourge Hook: Monstrous Shrine before you use it...
Seems a LOT of Killers lately are running Scourge Hook: Monstrous Shrine and then.. facecamping. Like, are you not reading the perk correctly? It's a perk encouraging you to NOT FACECAMP. It rewards you for NOT FACECAMPING. If you are facecamping, it literally deactivates the perk.

Why is killer able to see survivor items in lobby?
So, I know the first thing everyone will say, and that's so the killer can strategize on what perks to bring. However, all that goes out the window when survivors swap characters at 6 seconds and everything gets locked in,something made even easier with the new saved builds thing. So, why even bother to show me what items…
-
When did they let you able to get yourself off the hook when you are the last survivor?
So I've always been told that if you are the last survivor, you are instantly sacrificed with no chance to unhook yourself. I've been told this is also the case with Deliverance. This has been my experience... However, I just had a match where 2 were dead, one was on second hook, and I hooked the 2nd Kate (i swear I had…

Is it possible to be public matched with a friend?
So I tried googling this, but all I can find is how to form a party or do a Custom, which is not what I am wondering. I always hear people saying "oh, I hope i get matched against you someday" which, the thing is, if you are actually friends on like Steam or in DBD itself, is that even possible? Like I'm not friends with…

Camping Nerf Idea: Slowed Entity Progression?
So first of all, let me be clear that I play both Killer and Survivor. I hate camping, especially when it's done at 5 generators. You gotta get that 1 Kill, don't care if the other 3 survivors slam out the generators and 3 escapes, but you gotta get that 1 Kill even if you are making a miserable experience for one player.…

Please explain to me why you disconnect on purpose?
Okay, so this is to those that disconnect on purpose. Those that don't do this, we can speculate why and say that it's pointless and only hurting yourself and your team all we want, but... that's not what I am making this post for. Those of you who disconnect on purpose already know the consequences of doing so all too…

Grade is indicative of how much you are camped and tunneled, not skill.
Everyone always tells me "Grade is indicative of how much you play, not your skill" but they are wrong. It has to do with how much killers are camping and tunneling, and honestly, that's the best strategy for them. I've never been past Gold IV and rarely get even that high and I play more than most Dead by Daylight main…

Adept Killer vs. Adept Survivor
To get Adept Survivor: Log into match, go AFK the entire match, get lucky with a farming killer, escape. Did nothing whatsover, I was AFK the entire match, but yay. I got Adept. To get Adept Killer: Log into game and get a perfect match, chase survivors for extended times, down them, let them escape, down them again, hook…

Post-Match Survey Question?
So, I wanted some clarification since if you enter the wrong amount of bloodpoints, the match won't count for the survey, does it mean the amount of bloodpoints on the list of of players in the match, or does it take offerings into account and needs to be like my score of 31900, the nearly 100k I just got using BBQ and a…

Key related Tome challenges?
So there are some old tome challenges that are EXTREMELY more difficult than they used to be, is there anything that can be done? LIke open the hatch with a key 2 times. Which now with how the hatch doesn't even show now until you are the last survivor AND the killer would have to close it before you can open it with a…

Rework Pig's Reverse Bear Traps, please!
I'm sure there have been other threads on this, but I wanted to give my take on it. First, for those that don't know, I'll start with an explanation of how Pig's Reverse Bear Traps currently work. Each of the boxes have a trap assigned to them, and that box and only that box will open your trap. Which means, even with them…

Fix the chat censor?
Okay, I get why the chat censor exists, and I am glad it does for that reason... However, it's... seriously broken. At least some other games that try to be a "smart" filter I at least understand why, but they need to whitelist more words... Like I won't name names, but one game I play filters the following words since…

Accessibility: Some are unable to play First Person games... so let us opt out on daily rituals
As my title says, some people are unable to play games in first person due to the way the screen moves... it can cause nausea, even migraines for them. The problem comes that this makes it so if they only play Survivor because of this, it gets to a point where they pretty much will never be able to do any Daily Rituals.…
-
Excess Rift Fragments?
Okay, so as we all know, once you are done with the RIFT, you get nothing for all those excess RIFT fragments. It wouldn't be so bad except that we have over half of the Christmas gifts are Rift Fragments, so it's like... People who actually play the game get NOTHING while those who play less often get Rift fragments. I…

"Prestige benefits are a myth, it's purely cosmetic the developers said so" claim?
So, this guy on the Steam forums is INSISTING that the only reason to prestige a character is to get the bloody clothes, you do not AT ALL get any increased items in the bloodweb. He insists that the developers said this in a live stream Q&A. Nevermind that anyone who has prestiged a character knows how much increasingly…
