[PC] Onyro - Tape Editing Deck Addon Not Working Properly
DESCRIPTION OF THE ISSUE While running the Killer was using the Tape Editing Deck addon, I was able to build condemned while holding the Cursed Tape. I was also able to build to collect a second Cursed Tape and remove twice the normal amount of Condemned in the process. This addon seems to be bugged and does not actually…

What Is Your Average Playtime Per Day (Within The Past Week/Month)?
Below I have provides a rough time estimates of Hours Per Day spent playing DBD; this does not have to do with "Total Hours Spent Playing DBD", this is solely about how your average playtime per day within a recent period of time. Responses such as "Does Not Play Consistent Enough To Have A Definite Average" and "Would…

This Game Is Actually Unplayable
20 FPS the entire time. Stuttering. Rubberbanding. Powers not working properly. Teleporting. Before the update I could stay at a solid 60-80 FPS. Now Im at 20 FPS... 20. Not everyone has a high end system and before DBD was a game I could consistently play without any issues, but after the update it has basically become…

I Would Have Preferred If The Update Was Delayed Honestly
I played the PTB and it was a buggy mess, mostly because of the changes to UE5, and I remember making a post (that later got merged into another thread) stating that "I think the community would have preferred if the update/PTB was delayed to iron out all the issues since it's basically unplayable with how buggy/glitchy it…

New Huntress Skin Provides Massive Advantage
The Wind-Up sound that Huntress normally makes while lifting up her hatchet is insanely quiet from the Survivor's perspective and is basically non-existence since the chase music is loud enough to entirely cover it up. Huntress is a character that revolves around not just visual cues for her power but also auditory cues,…

How Do You Feel About The Game And Forums?
Any opinion goes, Id just like to see how people feel about the current state of the game and/or the game's future, or the Forums. Im not going to bother putting my likes/dislikes here, frankly most people wont even bother to read it, seems that long responses dont generally get engagement so Im just moving away from long…

So Yea, Meet Your Maker Is Just Dead Now
Im surprised I havent seen many people talk about this in the Off-Topic section but the BHVR Forums completely removed the Meet Your Maker section. "The entire world of Meet Your Maker has been explored," was basically them telling us that all future content would be stopped… but oh right, we got skins… that are mostly…

Will The Community Be Compensated For Shop Price Changes?
With shop prices changing, I was wondering if we would receive compensation for the prices being changed since some outfits have inconsistent pricing. I feel like I would have waited to make a few purchases had I known that the prices were going to change, and just finding out about this has made me concerned that I might…

Why The "Hug Tech" And Other "Techs" Are Good For The Game...
The Hug Tech With the Hug Tech being removed, Ive seen a lot of claims against it and I feel like a lot of the criticism regarding it is really 1-deminsional since it fails to acknowledge the room for skill expression and map knowledge within DBD. It's not "uncounterable" like people say, since there are various ways to…

Demogorgon Is The Perfect Killer
I know when people look Killer powers, they normally check a certain criteria as to rather the Killer is good or not. Typically they want a bit of slowdown, a chasepower that is decent, and some form of map mobility. For me personally, I dont really look at those qualities, but moreso the potential for playing and…

[PC] Missing Cosmetics
I just now noticed that some cosmetics are missing from my inventory, specifically Im missing the “Infected - Black” shirts. I still have the Infected - Red shirts but not the Infected - Black shirts. I had these cosmetics a few days/weeks ago and they are just now missing. I relied on them for a cosmetic combo for my Nea…

Why Does Wesker "Need" Hindered With Infection?
8% Hindered. Wesker is a Killer that already has a decent chase power to begin with, there are only niche exceptions where his power isnt good (mostly involving open spaces on Coldwind) but on most maps and areas in the game his power is exceptionally good. He can even throw Survivors, which leads to situations where…

Skull Merchant Rework
I know BHVR said that they dont want to completely remove a Killer's identity but I had an idea for a rework that would make her more interesting and overall more fun. NEW POWER: EYES IN THE SHADOWS Skull Totems The Skull Merchant can now place Skull Totems around the map, a remnant of those killed by her hand and a…

What A Perfect Way To End The Event
At least I can complete one Bloodweb. /j In all seriousness, I would have thought that we would have gotten more Bloodpoints for taking the time to farm the extra Blood Trinkets, but we didnt. I mean, the event had a rough start, but I consider it to be an overall success, I just wish it had a more satisfying end to the…

Decisive Strike Buff Is Better Than People Give It Credit For
Ive seen a lot of people say "Decisive Strike is not going to do much after the buff to 5 seconds" and how everything is doom and gloom. DECISIVE STRIKE'S DESIGN… Decisive Strike was never meant to make tunneling outright impossible, in fact literally all anti-tunnel perks are like that… in fact, all perks that are meant…

Fun Fact: Insidious Unknown Countered With A Single Trick
Ive seen a lot of clips of people using Insidious on the Unknown to try and fool Survivors into thinking it's a Hallucination... Hallucinations have Aura Reading tied to them so the only way to actually get this to work is to do it in an area without obstructions to prevent the lack of Aura Reading from being obvious. BUT…

Dead By Daylight's Monetization...
I love Dead by Daylight, I started playing in 2018, I have thousands of hours across PC and Console, so I feel as if I have enough experience and time dumped into the game to where I can actually talk about the issues with the monetization. In all regard, I will do my best to be as respectful. I love the game and I only…

What Is The Dumbest Post-Game Complaint/Salt Youve Gotten (As Survivor/Killer)?
Im making this after being inspired by a recent post-game chat interaction. Survivor got upset that I didnt respect the 4% unhook (1 Survivor was dead, the other 3 Survivors were alive) during EGC. In the post-game chat I was called "Sweaty" repeatedly... and would you like to know what I was using? H: Thrill of the Hunt,…

For The People + Buckle Up
I just wanted to address a lot of the claims that try to defend For The People and Buckle Up since I personally feel like they fail to actually address the issues and weaknesses of the perk combo. At times it feels more like people are intentionally beating around the bush to keep a busted perk combo in the game as opposed…

Thing That Mildly Bothers Me
It's a Bloodpoint Event. Which is amazing. A lot of people have been bringing their Anniversary Offerings and Bloody Party Streamers to boost everyone and that's nice. But there are those few people who bring Map Offerings, Hook Offerings, and/or Moris during the Event. Ive seen a lot of Survivors and Killers do it, so…

So Is Meet Your Maker Dead Now? (BHVR Blog Post And The Future of MYM)
Twitter Post: https://twitter.com/MeetYourMaker/status/1768324011879010604 MYM has announced their future set of cosmetics and content to release... and it's not looking good. There does not seem to be plans to introduce new traps, guards, or mods/augments, and releasing cosmetics that are literally just slight reskins of…

Thank You BHVR
BHVR seems to been on a hot streak lately since they have been doing a really good job listening to community feedback. First off; PTB to Live Servers, they listened to a lot of the PTB Feedback and made good changes. Granted I dont think Huntress needed a buff at all, I do think they addressed the more problematic aspects…

Not The “Event For BP Grinding” I Was Hoping For…
Why do I feel this way? Running the Event Offering(s) discards the Bloodpoint Offerings. This is suppose to be “the event for BP grinding” only for it to quite literally negate Bloodpoint Offerings. EDIT: The Bloodshot Eye Offering has been Killswitched. Likewise, the main method for farming the event, removing Droplets…

Remove Killer DC Penalty Versus 4 Bots
If all 4 Survivors DC, why should I be forced to play against bots? There is no realistic reason to keep the DC Penalty if I DC from a match that literally no other players are actively engaging with, if I wanted to play a PvE game, I would be playing Helldivers 2 or Warframe, not Dead by Daylight. I want to be able to…

The New Killer Has Resulted In A Lot Of Transphobia :(
The new Killer has outfits that cater to men and women but I’ve seen a lot of people intentionally using these outfits with names (often using slurs) specifically targeted towards attacking and harassing trans people. I’ve had 3 matches already where people have done this and targeted me for using a Trans Pride charm, I’ve…

Lobby/Survivor Name UI From Killer Perspective
Please, for the love of all that is holy, make the names of Survivors actually readable in the lobby. It feels like every few updates the UI is changed and it becomes impossible to read people’s names because everything is so zoomed out and the names are too small as a result. You guys keep zooming in and zooming out over…
-
I Like The New Map
There are a lot of pallets, but a lot of the pallets are really weak and can be mindgamed from both sides, which I really enjoy. Holding W can be done but against many Killer powers and from how decently open it is, it can be hard to do effectively sometimes. I also love the way it looks, and building upon existing…

Blindness Addons Are Better Than People Give Them Credit For
Windows of Opporunity is one of the most used Survivor perks due to it providing valuable information that helps Survivors avoid deadzones created by other Survivors. A lot of people complain about WoO (I think complaining about it is a massive “skill issue” but I digress), and while I don’t really care if people run it or…

(Off-Topic) Warframe Fashion (Bc Why Not)
With Account-Merging opening up for a bit, I used it as an opportunity to finally get all my console stuff on PC. I made a massive jump in Mastery Rank but I got all my Warframes and cosmetics back (unless I rebought them, since I didnt get anything in return for that unfortunately). Weapon is unrelated, it's just my…

"Leafy Mash" Really Needs To Return (Billy)
Leafy Mash was a Billy addon that was removed with the Billy rework since a lot of his addons were changed, I think this addon should return, and for a good reason... Apex Muffler. For those who dont know... Leafy Mash was an addon that removed your Terror Radius upon downing a Survivor, the effect lasted for 15 seconds…

Which Killer Has The Best Nodding?
The action of nodding is using the muscle and tissue within your neck to move the vertical position of your head (and face by proxy) up and down; which is normally associated as a way of saying "yes", showing approval, and/or saying hello. (Idk why I thought it would be funny to write a full description of what nodding is…

Badham Preschool Main Building Basement
Idk if this has been talked about already, but the anti-camp measures for the Main Building’s Basement on Badham Preschool is insanely easy to camp since the surface floor is high enough to avoid the anti-camp measure. Even if you somehow managed to unhook yourself from the Basement, it is likely the Killer will just…

I Don’t Quite Understand This…
Before I start, I’d like to say that this has nothing to do with BHVR or the game itself, this more so has to do with a small subset of the community (that is not representative of the community as a whole). So I went against a streamer who was constantly yelling and cussing people out over minor stuff or people not…

Might Be My Hottest Take Yet
Old DCing was better than before... kind of. Obviously having the DC Bots helps fill in for missing teammates and is far better from a gameplay experience since you are not put immediately into a 3v1 (unless they DC while dying on hook) and it makes the game feel a bit more fair when a DC occurs. But... here me out. Old…

Distortion Isn’t OP, But It Has Issues
Perks. DBD is full of them, go figure. And obviously some perks are better than others, which results in a meta forming… and I’m stuck here question how Distortion of all perks managed to become “meta”. Realistically, Distortion counters Aura Reading, which while some people pin as “Aura Reading being too prevalent”, Aura…

"Remove Store Notifications" Button
With the introduction of the Iron Maiden cosmetic, a LOT of Survivors got shirts from it and I really cant be bothered to sit there and click through every character and select the cosmetic just remove the "!" icon from the item shop. The funny thing is, I posted this suggestion MONTHS AGO since I knew something like this…

Tunneling Actually Explained.
This post is not complaining, moreso just explaining the mindsets for/against tunneling. In any game, players will normally take a variety of different paths based on the effort and skill required and the reward; for games that have win conditions, this is, of course, winning instead of losing. Strategies and tactics…

How Do You Feel About The LT Wall Structure?

Demo Buff
DEMO BUFF WOOOO YEA BABY!!! During Patch 6.1.0, the Basic Attack recovery was made faster and Pallet Break speed was made faster Demo was never buffed to compensate… BUT now they are! :D It’s such a small buff but I’ve been asking for this for such a long time. Having my fingers cross for Demogorgan to get an addon pass to…

What Is Your Favorite Era Of DBD/DBD Forums?
An Era is something that historians typically use to categorize time periods and events to make them easier understand. China was known for their Dynasties, sets of rulers contained with a set of bloodlines or families. USA was known for their various revolution and territorial expansions. They have a clearly defined way…

Kill Rates And Data
Kill Rates were released by BHVR for the month of December to January and I can firmly say that all of my stances on the game remained unchanged from it. When the developers state the “Data does not paint the full picture” meanwhile I’ve seen people go and make extremely long threads about how the game is “X-sided” and…

Onyro's Balancing Dilemma
Onyro is in a really tough position. While people typically point towards Blight or Nurse being in the "tough to balance area", I would disagree since Onyro seems to have taken the cake in terms of being tough to balance, and while a lot of people like to state how "simple" changes to "simply fix" her, I feel as if a lot…

Game Recommendations
Ive been playing a lot of DBD so I typically just take a break from the game once I feel as if Im burnt out for a bit. Ive been playing a lot of Risk of Rain Returns (after I 100% all achievements for Risk of Rain 2), and Idk how fast Ill get through RoRR so I was wondering if people had any game recommendations.

Hot Take: Spirit STILL Needs An Actual Rework
I feel ashamed that this has to be considered a "hot take" to begin with. Spirit is an accessibility nightmare, and the last time I pointed this out I had a LOT of people who disagreed with Spirit being reworked to be made more accessible, so let me address some of the claims head on. "If Spirit is an accessibility issue,…

Changing The Color Of Aura Reading
Accessibility is a really nice thing to have, and I see no downside to being able to change the colors of Aura Reading... Accessibility For those with Colorblindness, it might be a good idea to implement this since it can just outright change the colors from something that is difficult to see to something a lot more…

How Much Has The "Lights Out" Modifier Affected Your Queue Times?
I remember a few years ago, BHVR said that they were testing out new gamemodes but were concerned that new gamemodes would split the queues and probably make queue times worse as a result. I personally have not had too much of an issue queuing for either gamemode, and I was curious to see how people's queue times have…

How Well Does DBD Handle On Linux?
I swapped from Windows 11 to Debian12 (Gnome ~ Linux), Im not the most experienced when it comes to Linux but I am 100% willing to learn and accept the challenge of it. How well does Dead by Daylight (Steam) run on Deb12? Im assuming it will use Proton like my other games but I wanted to check with others first.

I Love LIGHTS OUT But There Is An Issue
(It starts with) One thing... I personally, dont like to tunnel or camp, I try my best to avoid doing it, but the lack of a hook counter overall just really throws me off and I find it really difficult to tell if Im hooking the same players over and over. As a result, I sometimes tunnel accidentally and it normally results…
