Gen Regression: A General Change
EDIT: Welp, I confused which forum I was posting on and used some HTML that doesn't work. Whoops! Will edit shortly. Hey all! So I wanted to talk about gen regression. Specifically: your standard, run-of-the-mill, kick the gen and walk away regression. Killers these days with very few exceptions all have to run gen control…

Anything to be Done About SWF Groups? (Very Long Post)
Hey all, tl;dr: Please read "The Rules" and "Solutions So Far" before posting solutions to the following question: What could be done to help balance out SWF? Feel free to vote for solutions you support. So I've been thinking about this for a long time and I just legitimately can't think of any solution for good SWF teams…

Is the Game Killer/survivor Sided, Do You Have Data?
Hey all, EDIT: PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE provide DATA alongside an opinion. My goal here is to get some data, not to argue based on personal experience or anecdote. :( We'll just wind up in a salt-fueled argument if we're talking about personal opinion with no evidence to back it up. If you don't have data and you're in this…

Probably Not Worth the Effort, but Plz...
Can we please give Ghost Face emotes? The same emotes survivors have and/or his little wave?

UI Customizations for Streaming/Ghost Face
Hey all! I've noticed that often times streamers and youtubers have to go out of their way to block out the names of survivors either because they're offensive or just to keep them anonymous... I was thinking it would be cool if there was an option to just toggle names off and instead just get a 'player 1', 'player 2',…

A Miracle Occurred!
I got a single survivor in a game that was at or below my rank! It IS possible! It only took 12 games! ... I was legitimately excited. XD

"Last Man Standing" Score Event for Survivor?
Hey all, It's been brought up that if you play well during the match and don't get hooked until the very end, you don't get the chance to escape from the hook or struggle for points... We also know that survivors notoriously get fewer BP than killers - that's not an inherently bad thing, but I think giving one survivor the…

Object of Obsession Minor Change
Hey there! I think by this point it's pretty well understood that OoO is a bit overpowered in SWF contexts. It'd be fine if one survivor got the benefit of knowing where the killer was at the expense of the killer knowing where they are, but in a good SWF team the entire team gets that benefit and the only way to stop it…

Hex Perk Suggestion
Hey there! Before I get into it I just wanna say: I'm no game designer, I don't know what's best for DbD, but I throw this out here more for inspiration than as a recommendation. With that said, here's a hex rework: Totem Changes: 12 Totems now spawn around the map. Reasoning: Due to the way some perks below have been…

Suggested Feature: "Minor Tomes"
Hey there! I love doing the tomes - they get me into the game and give me rewards for completing challenges that often force me to play in a style or character I don't typically play! I wanted to suggest something like "Minor Tomes" - basically, it's an infinite tome of randomly generated missions. Obviously these should…

Solo Queue Survivor Shared Info
Hey there! I've got about 3k hours in this game, and all but maybe 2 hours of that are evenly split between killer and solo queue survivor. It strikes me as a weird balance: While plenty of SWFs are just some friends casually queueing up together, a fair chunk of them are really good survivors making the most of their…

'Session Expired' Mid-Game, AFK Penalty Applied on Login
Hey there, I'm running on Windows 10 via Steam. I have not experienced this bug before, and while I can't say exactly how to reproduce it, I would imagine it involved leaving the game running in the background for some extended period of time and playing games occasionally. I usually leave DbD running in the background of…

Demogorgon and Pig Addons
Hey there, I think this is a pretty popular opinion, but I wanted to throw it out here just to have it on the official DbD forum: Most of the Demogorgon's addons affect his portals, and most of the Pig's addons affect her traps... but these are typically considered the characters' secondary powers. It'd be really cool to…

WGLF Change/Buff
Hey there! I've been hoping for a WGLF change for a long time now, so I figured I'd voice a couple of ways I think the perk could be improved while promoting healthy gameplay. A brief history: WGLF used to give survivors +50% BP per token acquired up to 4 (+200% BP total), with tokens being gained for saves and protection…

Detail Mode for Perks/Addons/Offerings
Hey all! I'm sure this has been requested before, but I'd really like the ability to see some actual percentages on perks, addons, offerings, abilities, etc. Currently it's really inconsistent: perks like Botany Knowledge say that they increase healing speed by a percentage while items like medkits say they…

Perk Tier Selection
Hey there! I was hoping at some point we might be allowed to choose the perk tier we want to use (IE, maybe pick Ace in the Hole tier 1, or Discordance when you have tier 3). For most perks, the highest level is obviously best and the only reason you'd choose a lower tier perk is for additional challenge or if there were a…
