Jurassic world chapter would be cool
I know it's not explicitly a horror movie franchise. But saw an article recently about bhvr partnering with the universal jw franchise on an game unrelated to dbd and in the article it talked about a crossover event between dbd and jurassic world and how cool it would be. "I give you.... the Indoraptor" Been thinking about…

I'm pretty sure we're gonna get vecna as a killer
I rest my case

Why is endgame chat a thing?
This genuinely confuses me. Like we can't get in game voice chat but apparently it's fine to have a text chat where the killer and survs can interact, immediately after the game has finished and people will be at their saltiest? Lucky for me I'm on xbox so I'm not exposed to the salt of endgame chat. But tried a few rounds…

Missing bloodpoints
Just finished a match with party streamers. I did pretty well and my ridt BP challenge showed I got 85k bp but i only had 15k when i loaded out of the match. Anybody else had this?

Finally joined the prestige 100 club
Welp after months of BP grinding and a real boost from the masquerade event i finally got my beloved jeff to prestige 100 😁 Since i hit prestige 80 and above I have noticed a LOT of killers dodge lobbies with my jeff now. Which is funny because when it comes to chase I am distinctly mid, at best 🤣

Separate ranked play and make it more interesting.
So a suggestion I've made, and seen a bit of on the forum is make a casual playlist so that survs and killers who want a less stressful toxic experience can play with less pressure, try out new builds or killers they are weak with, without getting absolutely wrecked. It's a win win. There is a casual experience which will…

So who's been reading the dbd legion comics?
Just picked up the second issue yesterday and quite enjoying it. Few really cool references in there and I like the cover art charms that come with it.

Did pallet vaults get nerfed?
I was reading the patch notes and I know they messed about with vaults distances. But I've noticed when I vault pallets it seems a lot slower and I'm getting hit way more often on pallets, didn't see anything about it in the notes tho

Would be cool to have a wall climbing killer
Been mulling over what the alien's mechanics might be like. And got to thinking, one of the best horror moments is that whole moment when it seems safe then something drips down onto the character, they look up and get pounced from above. It's a very "Alien" move, but regardless even if they haven't done this with the…

Seeing stamper turning up a lot in the lore
There's the stampers in doctors and dredges lore and now a different stamper showing up in the lore for nick cage as well. I'd be interested to see if they expand on it, perhaps a family working to feed people to the entity or part of some kind of entity related cult.

Good survivor crutch perks for chase.
This one is for survivors who are middling/bad in chase, much like myself. I can keep a chase going for a decent time on a good day, but usually my chases barely break even for the time deficit you need to build of killer time wasted on chase vs survivor time wasted away from gens on unhooks heals etc. Been figuring out…

Well onryo is broken for solo q now
6 games in so far tonight. 3 have been onryo, all 4ks. 2 at 5 gens, a 4 mori game and a 2 mori game where I got slugged and left to bleed out. One game we actually got a gen done. Just as onryo forcibly slugged all 4 of us (without hooking anyone at all) and finally mori'd one then eventually hooked the rest. All less than…

Gen rush discussion.
Been seeing a lot of complaints about genrushing recently and want to get more views on it. What do you consider genrushing? When is it good tactics and when does it get to the point of being "toxic" and what might be done to "fix" it? How can you effectively counter it? As someone who plays both roles I have mixed…

Can dead hardy still be done? Mods pls help
Trying to do the dead hardy challenge and it won't pop for me. It's designed for old dead hard, wording is "use dead hard to avoid a basic attack by a nearby killer" Now I've tried this several ways, whiffing DH while killer is on me and hoping the miss, had that happen a couple times and it's never popped, nailing a dead…
-
(Can mods answer?) How does dead hardy challenge work now?
No it's not a typo, I'm not asking about the perk but the challenge in tome 2 which I'm currently working through because I like lore drops. The dead hardy challenge is "use dead hard to avoid a basic attack by a nearby killer 1 times" So do i just have to hope a killer whiffs and misses when I DH or has it been updated to…

Are people are burned out by the event?
I've been rinsing dbd these last couple of weeks for the masquerade, it's pushed me a considerable way through my prestige 100 jeff grind, it's a good event. But I've noticed these last couple of days people are getting mad triggered. Had more toxic messages in one 3 hour game session tonight than I usually get in a month.…
-
Anyone else having issues with the encore encore challenge?
It won't trigger for me, the description is to activate any invitation effect in chase once. Bht when i do it's giving me a counter out of 3 and haven't managed that yet

Catching out cocky survs in exit gates
Hands down one of the most satisfying things for me when I play killer. Game's gone bad, you have 0 kills and survs are chilling in exit gate healing for points or waiting to teabag. Then you throw them a curveball and manage to down and sweep up an injured surv in the exit gate. I'd like to know how others manage to do…
-
Are terrormisus permanent?
First off love the new dessert, great play on words and tiramisu happens to be my favourite irl dessert. But i noticed the item description says to be "eaten during the masquerade", and one of the effects is explicitly to find invitations. So will these offerings only be valid during the event or will we be able to use…

Singularity adept not working?
Twice now I've 4k'd a match with only singularity's perks and both times my singularity adept has failed to pop

Did hexes get stealth buffed?
Genuinely not sure, saw so many hexes last night and literally nobody on the team could find them. I was solo q ing so i had the usual parade of urban evasion bots not touching gens, or presumably totems. But had 3 games in a row where a busted totem stayed up all game, 2 hex devours and a huntress lullaby doctor…
-
How about, we base gen speeds on killers?
Had this thought early while posting about genrushing. Some killers are far more vulnerable to getting genrushed than others. One of the reasons I almost never play twins is that it takes too long to get anything done. If you down survs with victor it often takes ages to find and hook them. Trapper is a slow killer and…
-
Proposed facecamp changes sound pretty bad.
So let me start by saying I HATE facecamping as a tactic, particularly early in a game. But seeing the proposed mechanics to eliminate face camping is ring alarm bells with me a bit, they just don't look like they'll help much. Being able to auto self unhook won't be very helpful against a killer determined to get a kill…
-
Bhvr can balance all they like, the players are the problem.
Title says it all really, players are by far the biggest problem. Given the basic mechanics of the game it's possible for both sides to abuse mechanics to make life miserable for the other. Killers can camp tunnel and 3 gen to force wins or use cheap perks like NOED for easy kills. Survs if they have a team of strong…
-
Please explain this mentality to me
Why do people dc or unalive themselves on hook on the first down? I can understand something like that part way through the game when it's clear the killer will win and you just want to get on with the next game. But when you do that right at the start of the game you throw the game for everyone else. As surv I'm like…

Tip for everybody running the white glyph challenge.
Idk why I didn't know this before but if you escape with the pocket mirror you get for carrying the glyph to the basement you get 25k BP. Just in case anybody else missed this. Love this challenge, also a really cool way to get us to use basement offerings lol.

Why is by any means necessary killswitched?
Title. Had a scroll on here but can't see any threads on it.

Hot take: I way preferred the DH meta.
Man killer mains ######### up. Complaining so hard about DH. Now literally every surv is running lithe, SB or balanced landing and it is annoying af. You know what I liked about DH? You could counter it, SO easily. You can't counter any of these other exhaustion perks and it is driving me up the wall. Whereas with DH once I…

Early hook suicides should be reportable
I get it takes more effort to see if the person did wrong. But it literally has exactly the same effect as disconnecting and should be treated as such. It's technically sabotaging your team and refusing to participate in normal gameplay. I'm sick of seeing first down surv rush themselves onto 2nd hook phase then miss the…
-
Game needs to be more tolerable for new players
All in the title really. For more detail this game is amazingly unpleasant for new players. New survivors are in for constant rounds of dying all because they cant make a chase last longer than 30 seconds. And be realistic, how many gamers are going to watch youtube vids and spend hours and hours practicing and getting…
-
I'd forgotten how bad solo q was and boy is it bad.
Generally I avoid solo q like the plague but recently my usual swf mates have gone off of dbd and if I want to play survivor I'm often doing it on my own. I forgot how godawful it was. 9 games so far and 8 deaths in a row. Eventually survived against a hillbilly on midwich. I'm not exactly a good survivor but neither am I…
-
Please sir 🥺 can we get an oppression buff?
So I know the current flavour is nuking regression from orbit. But I've been mucking around with an oppression build on nemesis and I've found an interesting build which could be effective yet balanced. So I was trying it out with dms since pain res is now nerfed into the ground. And it makes for an interesting game. Ran…

Any other killers been having fun with vaulting builds?
Been loving messing around with superior anatomy and bamboozle recently. Lot of fun, and a side mention to my legion build with the addons for insta frenzy recharge on pallet stun and breaking pallets you vault over, really amusing combo.

Taking bets
On how long it'll be before the healing changes get reset once they go live, I give it maybe 3 weeks.

Are people truly incapable of countering dead hard?
So many threads complaining about this recently. And it mystifies me, I'm no killer main for sure, but not a surv main either. I play both rolls roughly equally. For a start it isn't easy to hit, you can force a trigger by running at killer but it only works against players who M1 at the earliest possible second. Killer is…
-
How about a counter to killer instinct?
Pretty much every gameplay mechanic in dbd the game has a perk designed to counter it. You even have a perk that supresses screams Except killer instinct for some reason. There is literally no way to counter it at all. I'm not saying make a killer instinct distortion. I don't think the perk should totally nullify the…

Big brain plays with perks.
Want to see how many creative perk uses people have found. I've got two killer ones I particularly enjoy. Lightborn, and mindgaming that I don't have it. When I see 2 or more beamers in the lobby switching to lightborn is always a no brainer. But It's despicably fun to mindgame that I don't have it, and look away whenever…

Has anyone actually tried potential energy against a SM 3 gen.
With all the complaining about 3 gens at the moment (a change from people whining about DH I guess) I'm wondering if anyone has actually tried using potential energy at all. Because I see lots of complaining but not many suggestions of how to counterplay. It's a pretty useless perk tbf but if you deliberately leave a gen…

Forum comments disappearing.
Has anyone noticed a lot of comments on threads are disappearing? I've tried to view replies to my comments and had an error message saying the comment no longer exists. Was revisting a thread earlier and found one of my comments in thebthread had totally disappeared too. Anyone else had this at all?

Update mori animations for trapper and wraith
Seriously they are so boring and bland. Wouldn't take much just to give them something interesting and unique. Trapper could go for the classic embed the machete in the head, nice close up, put a boot on their chest, and work it free, plenty of cracking and a gross *schluck* as it pulls free. Wraith could repeatedly crush…
-
Why is match making so damn bad?
I am sick to death of getting matched against players with 5 times my play time. On killer i can deal with it because I'm good at killer and can compete with bully squads. I'd prefer not to have to run sweaty builds all the time but hey. We clearly aren't getting a casual playlist so ######### playing for fun I guess. But as…

Fair hook camping/tunneling solution
So every surv hates getting facecamped or tunneled early game. It's not reportable but it's almost impossible to counter. And if you die early you get less than 9k bp and if you're okaying with a swf you have to wait a while to get back in to a game. On the other side. If killer is getting stomped then sometimes it's the…

Lets see your favourite DBD memes
This is mine for sure. Few things I love more than teaching a particularly toxic surv a lesson 🤣 apart from maybe giving hatch to nice survivors who offer me gifts 😁
-
Hatch tracking with the maps.
What's the point of it? Since the map can't actually track the hatch before it appears there is literally no point to using this ability because if you get close enough to track hatch, you'll hear it. Since hatch spawn is decided at the start of a match so I reckon the map should track the hatch if you happen to walk by…
-
Some survs really will DC at the drop of a hat.
Idk what the hell is wrong with some players. Load into a lobby as clown, my aposematism sense starts to tingle. I see two high prestige survs with torches and neon outfits. One with a hidden name Switch on lightborn because that's smart. Start game. Catch and down first surv after a brief chase, 180 and pickup, sure…
-
Link between dredge and the doctor?
I've noticed that both Dredge's and Doctor's lore mention a doctor otto stamper. And I'm wondering if it's the same person? Especially since Doctor killed him in his lore because that would mean it occured after dr stamper created the dredge. Which seems odd to me. Or perhaps these killers are from parallel worlds with…
-
Fix the genrush/slowdown meta.
This is the main issue with dbd rn. Killers facing high mmr complain about survs gen rushing and survs complain about slowdown perks being OP. Both sides are right imo. If survs stack genrushing perks and have a great chase runners it's almost impossible for killer unless they run hardcore regression. If a killer runs a…

New feng skin suggestion
This is tongue in cheek before people start complaining. I'm surprised feng doesn't have an overwatch DVA jumpsuit cosplay skin. Both characters are canonically pro gamer video game streamers. It would appeal to the bright colours displayed by your average toxic feng mains. And they are both the most obnoxiously irritating…
-
What's the point of hidden offerings?
Is there really any point in hidden offerings? There's so few of them it's so easy to figure them out. Survs it will always be some kind of shroud offering, and killers it's either gonna be a shroud (lol) or obviously it'll actually be a mori offering. Might as well just remove the fact that they're hidden and make all…
