Skull Merchant set a bad precedent
So recently, Houndmaster's add on 'knotted rope' was nerfed massively. Knotted Rope - basic attack cooldown when hitting grabbed survivors is reduced by 2% (Down from 10%) If that sounds terrible, it is. BHVR, by their own words, made this add on intentionally horrifically bad and unusable so that way they could 'avoid it…

Houndmaster mistletoes
Unless I'm wrong, she has no way to use these right? Like she cant even play the gamemode? So why am I still getting them in all my webs? Its literally just wasting points. Can we have them taken out of her bloodweb or be refunded the points spent on them?

Worst Change on the forums
I HATE how now when you click on 'dev' or 'community manager' in the main screen that it no longer takes you straight to the dev's comments it now gives you a list of every post that a dev has commented on. Its so annoying like I just wanna see the dev's comment not scroll through 3 pages of people searching for it. Can…

Whats the point of this killer?
God ever since they added the ability to just wipe away her traps shes been such genuine garbage. It makes me so mad that every killer I loved just gets gutted (Hag, Skull Merchant), changed to be unfun for me (Onryo), or just launches in a trash state (HoundMaster). I really don't see the point in playing Hag now a days.…
-
Anyone else not like level design?
Like idk everything just is super unimmersive and unrealistic like ik this is a game about an entity taking people into different realms but the a lot of the locations are based on real places/movies set in the real world. Like why is everything in haddonfield so GIGANTIC and massive? Why is badham still using old house…

HamsterMaxxing In Dead By Daylight
Any tips in Hamstermaxxing? Any builds or killers you guys think would fit the hamstermaxxing idea? I was thinking Blight was a good hamster-esque killer but Im taking all suggestions
-
So Skully just gets Freddy'd huh?
I've never actually been this mad about changes before and Ive been PISSED off at some things BHVR has done. But this? Butchering Skull Merchant to a barely playable state with NO compensation? Thats your plan? Just nerf her so harshly that everyone stops playing her so you wont have to deal with the complaints? This…
-
BHVR's behavior is really gross
Openly admitting in a STREAMERS LIVESTREAM that you intentionally gutted a killer to put her in such a weak state no one would want to play her until the rework and laughing about it is sick sick work BHVR. Seriously what the hell? How unprofessional and flat out disrespectful to your players do you have to get? You are…
-
Is there any plans to improve Legendary skins?
I just was wondering if the devs have said anything (or can comment on this) on the possibility that Legendary skins will get more added to them soon or in the future? Like possibly prestige variants, their own banners in menus/stores? Anything to add more oomf to them

Is 2024 the year of drag in dbd?
I think its interesting we got three pieces of drag content back to back. First with Mother Ru being introduced under the name Vecna for some reason, then castlevania, now with the dragula crossover? Very interesting turn of events is what I'll say in the least… (Shade to Vecna not Roop we are Roop stans here)
-
Do we still need the PTB?
This is a genuine question, why not just release the content when the PTB is supposed to drop so EVERYONE not just PC players get it early and then after 3 weeks (or the next week since the changes are made based on 1 week worth of player data) just do the changes? A lot of PTBs recently have launched with very minimal…

How are they adding killers to 2v8 in the future?
Basically does anyone have any information on what they plan to do with future killer implementation (or if a dev/mod would answer that would be super cool) Like are we doing it 5 at a time in chronological order? Will we sometimes get more or less killers? Will we get licensed killers (If you cant answer this part its…

2v8 honest thoughts (Long)
So I've been playing a LOT of 2v8 lately and this gamemode has really brought me into the game again! Before this I played maybe one match of DBD a week as I had pretty much lost interest in the game, but 2v8 really revived the love I have for DBD at least temporarily. With that being said I have a lot of things to say…
-
Need 2v8 clarification
so 2v8 is coming soon which ofc I’m excited about but I need to know, are you only able to play the 8 survivors that are there or can you play any survivor but just with different classes? I seriously need to know this because if I can’t play ANY of my favorite survivors I’m fr just gonna not bother even touching survivor…
-
I feel like Kate Denson is very overlooked
When I say this I mostly mean in regards to her lore. She is the only survivor who we know has fought off the entity and won of her own will (unlike others who the entity played with, hers was a direct attempt at taking her and failing). Shes such a strong force of positivity and light that she somehow manages to ward off…
-
Okay come on
Let me preface this, unlike DnD, I have a very personal connection to Tomb Raider. Tomb Raider Legend and Angel Of Darkness are games I grew up with when I was younger and Legend especially holds a very close part in my heart as before my Nana passed she would play it with me at her old age and then even do her best to…

'DBD isn't a horror game'
I see this said a lot to justify overly comedic or non horror things in this game and it gets on my nerves more than anything. so far starters, DBD IS a horror game. It doesn't matter if it 'stops becoming scary' its still a horror game with a horror centric theme that, until last chapter, has always kept the horror…

We exchanged Chinese culture for this?
Yk as a Chinese player it was sorta weird that they announced they'd never do LNY again and that no more would be done to celebrate the event thats celebrated by billions of people all across Asia, but did you guys really have to replace it with an event thats even worse with horrible BP gain? I mean...already was super…

Yellow tape...
So I noticed it this update, I'm not sure if it was this one in specific since I haven't been playing religiously since this one, but WHY IS THERE YELLOW TAPE EVERYWHERE NOW😭 At first I thought it was just midwich but no its in Red Forest and Lery's as well and I KNOW neither of those maps had the tape before hand. I curse…

Unknown needs a big nerf
I had very high hopes for this killer, after seeing the trailers and reading the lore, I was VERY hyped. But the gameplay against him just feels so miserable and it feels like I can't even play a single match against him without dying. His ability to make me only play with my left hand is sickening and there needs to be a…

Pls rate cosplay
My son did a Skull Merchant cosplay, hes pretty new to this but he loves Adrianna so much he decided to put his best foot forward. How did he do?

Console switching is miserable
Okay so Ive been trying to switch to my PC account for DBD full time which has been extremely hard for a multitude of reasons. I've had this PC account for years with a little over 600 hours on it yet barely anything because of how miserable this games grind continues to be, but also because MMR is MISERABLE! I mained…

Plague is still better at 3 genning
I’ve always held the opinion that most killers in their own way can hold a type of 3 gen. However, even skull merchant at her peak was not comparable to Plague at max potential. I ran a test before they reworked COB/OC to see who could hold a better 3 gen which sadly never got to be finished, but recently I’ve been testing…
-
A genuine question to the balance team
Why is the balance team so insistent on killers only having one optimal way of playing? I've noticed with pretty much every single killer rework they do, they do gut the problematic playstyle while also gutting every single other potential playstyle a killer might have -Sadako -Skull Merchant -Billy -Freddy They buff one…

Which cosmetics should be exclusive
I dont mind exclusive cosmetics, HOWEVER they should never be purchase only. I see people upset about event cosmetics coming back which is valid because those cosmetics show you actually sat and played the game during that time and got that cosmetics, thats the biggest difference between event exclusive cosmetics and FOMO…

Hamster pun dbd names?
So I might get another hamster soon and wanna give him a dbd themed name with a hamster pun. He's gonna be a Syrian hamster so one of the big boys if that helps. Anyone have any name suggestions? Both gendered names are welcome as Im unsure of the hamsters sex atm as I haven't picked one out but I like to be prepared lol

Biggest Skull Merchant defender's opinion on the rework
So, if anyone at all remembers me its probably from my rigorous defence of all things Skull Merchant and my 'I told you so' about her rework. While my original statement ended up being true, the devs have done some tweaks on her from PTB -> live release and I decided to bite my tongue as some of the changes seemed to big…
-
Did you guys have to gut SM?
There was so many other options that could've been taken. -Drones radius cant come within 5 meters of a gen (Remove drone minimum spacing and and give another drone as compensation to make her more spider like) -Moving Drones that steer around areas (Forgot the complexities of it but someone gave a great idea for it)…
-
When will maps feel immersive?
Like why does Borgo just look like a weird flat wasteland with a burning building instead of a burned down village? Why are the badhams home devoid of furniture and lifeless even after the Haddonfield rework which redid these same structures? Why are the houses and furniture so gigantic in Haddonfield? Hunting Grounds is…
-
So which SH girl do we want next?
Now that we have the absolute best SH character in DBD (Maria) who do we think should be next as a legendary? Realistcally I think Harry is going to be his own survivor and with that assumption under place this is what I personally believe will be the order -New Silent Hill Chapter with Harry as survivor -2 Legendaries |…

So is BHVR gonna do anything to address toxicity
Took a small break when TCM came out, came back to try alien and every match was just a tunneling and camping Alien who’d slug for ages, and legion. Like this game would be so fun if every single player didn’t try hard to the max every single match and be as toxic as possible while doing so. It’s one of the only games I…
-
Killers and Surivors are both horrible
Seriously neither side is more or less toxic. I keep seeing "Omg when I play survivor these awful killers are so toxic" and "When I play killer these survivors are so toxic" well yeah because everyones toxic to each other for no reason lol. Ive run a non meta build on a killer I'm not experienced with and gotten curb…

BHVR please stop flexing that we cant beat all challenges
This is so annoying how every now and then you guys make a challenge you are well aware we as the playerbase cannot beat (You have the data tracking emblems so you guys are well aware of whats doable in what span of time with your playerbase) and idk if its because you guys think its funny or if its because you want us to…

Why hasn't a killer with a scythe come
I mean seriously we have a sickle wheres the scythe :(
-
Why move the live but not the PTB?
Title. That made no sense to move the live back so many days and include in the live all the sections saying “The PTB will be today!” And then add that little ‘It’s not available today’ disclaimer. Why not just make it available today?
-
When will we start getting similar cosmetics to netease?
I mean come on the quality difference/style couldn't be any different between main game and netease when it comes to cosmetics and yet BHVR still hasn't realized that the netease cosmetics are well...better. If BHVR started making cosmetics in this style (even if it was only like one a month) I'm sure they'd sell like…

Soooo Elodie has platform sandals now
Does this mean we can finally start getting much more proper heels and stuff like that!

30 minute DBD writing challenge
So me and my sister did a challenge where we had to make a DBD character in 30 minutes total. We got 20 minutes to write a backstory, then 10 minutes to write 3 perks! Here's mine and if you guys want, join the challenge and add yours below too! DBD - Huang Zi Xi Backstory: Huang Zi-Xi was a studious and observant girl…

Question about Ada
Okay devs, you probably cant answer this but I really wanna know, is there any plan to facially change Ada Wong to be more like her remake counter part? Jill got an insane face lift that makes her model look ported straight from RE3, can Ada get something similar?
-
Biggest issue with this mid chapter I feel
So personally, I think the biggest problem isn't actually the nerfs but the lack of buffs in other things. Ofc the nerfs were imo justified all around, but other perks should've been buffed in significant ways for a true meta shake up! You can't JUST nerf the strong stuff, weaker things should also be brought up and I feel…

Weird thing I noticed with SM
So with SM, idk if its just me, but does anyone have a trend of like either getting 4ks or 1ks? My current stats are 21 4ks 1 3k (hatch) 4 2ks 11 1ks

Was this hacking?
I went against a legion who at the end of the chase I dropped a pallet on. I began blinding him then he activated feral frenzy, jumped over the pallet, and knocked me down. This is 100% a hack right? He did nothing else suspicious the entire game but that single incident was crazy. I'll upload the clip to better show what…
