So ... How Might This Have Happened?
I was playing as part of a 4-person SWF last night, and we suspected that our lobby was bugged, so I exited the party and all four of us exited all the way back to the main screen (not restarting the game). When we did, all three of the four of us had different BP bonuses -- Two people had a 100% bonus to play killer, but…

Just saw my first Prestige 100 ...
... And I immediately dodged the lobby, lol. I know technically it could be someone who had a ridiculous number of BP they've never spent accumulating through rewards and codes and such. But this default Dwight with a username of one symbol? Yeah ... I'm going with likely hacker. I'm of the opinion that the Prestige…

What would you guess the average age of DBD players are?
To start this off, I'm throwing it out there that I'm old. Like, REALLY old, lol. At least in the context of the general player base, and I'm probably not anywhere near the target age demographic of video game companies if I had to guess. I've played rounds as killer where I've messaged players after the game (I'm on…

Happy Father's Day, Everyone!
To all of the players who are fathers, a Happy Father's Day to you! And to those who are not, but who have their father still in their life, take some time today away from this board and step out of the Fog for a little while to tell them how much they matter. I lost my natural father when I was an infant. My stepfather --…

Wiggle time -- and when does it start?
Someone please correct me if I'm mistaken, but it takes someone 16 seconds to wiggle off, without perks or teammates affecting things, correct? And when exactly does that time start? Is it when the pick-up animation is finished from the killer's viewpoint? Just wondering, as I ran into someone who managed to wiggle off in…

Am I missing something here?
I played a match yesterday, and one of the survivors escaped. They ended the match with 50,380 BP. They had Prove Thyself in their loadout, but there were no BP offerings in the lobby from anyone and they had no other perk to assist with BP gains. So was it a bug, a hacker, or am I missing something else obvious? Outside…

Sometimes the reason you lose isn't the game, but the person staring back at you in the mirror
hu·bris /ˈ(h)yo͞obrəs/ noun excessive pride or self-confidence. So I went up against a fellow Twitch streamer in a match last night -- I was playing Demo and running my standard build for him these days (Corrupt, Pain Resonance, and STBFL -- with the new Dead Man's Switch added in over BBQ to see how it worked on him), We…

This Dwight Was A Magician!
I've never seen this bug/feature before. Levitation new perk upcoming? 🤣

I don't know if this says more about me or the community (or both)
So, I play on PS5. I turned my messages off the first week I played the game, when a fellow survivor sent me a message telling me to off myself and other choice words after I didn't rush the hook to save them against a Basement-camping Bubba. I'm too old and with too many things to worry about in real life to waste time…

Bug or "Feature"?
I don't see every thread, so apologies in advance if this has been brought up before. So, playing a match today and running the Boon totem perk that actually works, after getting unhooked, I went to cleanse a lit Ruin/Undying totem -- and much to my complete surprise, my Decisive Strike did NOT deactivate while I was doing…

Adept Killer Needs A Complete Rework
I'm not the first to suggest this, but my experiences the last couple of weeks is a good indication as to how badly the Adept achievements for killer are set up. I've been trying for Adepts, after ignoring them for the longest, and I've been doing them at Rank/Grade 1 for a few weeks. My SBMM rating is presumably pretty…

Question about the Malicious Emblem and The Plague
So, while making an attempt at Adept Plague last night, I ended up with what I thought was going to be enough to get the job done. Ended up on The Game (ugh), but decided to protect the upstairs gens at all costs, which worked out well. The match was somewhat lengthy, but I made sure to get plenty of hooks, only slugged…

What do you need to improve on to be a better player?
This forum is usually awash with threads begging to "Nerf perk/killer/SWF/etc.". This thread isn't about that. Instead of blaming losses on the game, more likely, the reason for those losses is located somewhere in the mirror -- or at least mine are. (Obviously, there are current optimization issues, bugs, and other things…

There are really powerful perks/survivors/killers in this game ... and that's perfectly fine.
Amidst the constant threads that pop up on this forum on a daily basis (that I would hope the developers take them in the same way movie critics take the latest Adam Sandler movie -- amusing at first, but it's a tired formula when you hear the same complaining over and over again), I wanted to share thoughts I said in…

Playing against A SWF running Ayrun's "Infinite Head-On/Flashlight Stun" Build
So, I had what might be the easiest daily there is to get, the Dream Chaser with Freddy one (basically, all four people fall asleep and you're finished with it, lol). I played a Freddy round -- and I ran into a full-on 4-person SWF running essentially what is Ayrun's Head-On/Flashlight Stun build (or their tweaked version…

So close ...
First time making it to Rank 2. It's been a rough go at Red Ranks, but it's a challenge that I think has definitely made me a better player in the last couple of months. I've only been playing since April (when the COVID-19 stuff happened and I went on a work furlough), but I've had a lot of time to put into the game, lol.…

My brush with a famous content creator!
Playing early this morning because I couldn't sleep, I get a lobby as killer as The Pig -- and in my match is the one and only Ohmwrecker! I'm a huge fan of all of his content, so my hands were literally shaking playing the match! 😮 I didn't play my best, and going after Ohm early proved fruitless, as he outclassed me in…
