Eyrie of Crows
On the Eyrie of Crows map, one of the staircases in the main building has a glitch that causes killer collision. It does not appear to effect survivors. I was being forced off the ledge of the stairs or had to go to the far wall side of the stairs to continue up the staircase. There is also a collision bug at the top of…

Terminus bugged
Edit: Platform PS4, unsure of Killer platform. Terminus is not keeping survivors broken for the additional 30 seconds (tier 3) after exit gates are open, as the perk states. I just played a game against The Clown on the "Yamaoka Estate - Family Residence" map. The Clown was using the perk Terminus. I was playing as Ace and…

Uptick in Distortion usage?
Am I the only one noticing Distortion in a lot of survivor builds recently? It's gotten to the point that when Shadow Step or Off the Record is in play it catches me off guard because I think it's just Distortion again. I do think it's a pretty good perk now, considering you can recharge the tokens, but I feel like I only…
-
Solo queue sucks because...
Well, for a lot of reasons. But in this specific instance, I'm talking about a game I just played where a David and a Nea wanted to bully a killer with flashlights and then literally threw themselves at the Huntress after finding out she had Lightborn. Typical crybaby survivors. "WAHHHH they fairly countered my flashlight…

Hag Disfigured Ear Addon Does Not Cause Deafen
System: PS4 Killer: Hag Add-on: Disfigured Ear (Triggering a Phantasm Trap causes the Survivor to be deafened for 6 seconds) Survivor Played: Jonah Vazquez Map: Racoon City Police Department Bug: Any time I triggered a Hag trap, I did not receive the "deafen" effect. I could still hear everything, including other…

MMR results after 1000 games
I have 4k hours in this game and one of my friends has about 1.5k hours. We assume that we are near the top end of the MMR system, but probably not the absolute best. We don't use full meta perks (usually only 1 BT and 1 DS in our 4 man swf). He started a survivor spreadsheet when MMR started to keep track of the killers…

Fully depleted medkit = no heal?
I'm just going for a tome challenge to "fully deplete 5 medkits." I've been bringing a brown medkit with double healing speed addons just so I can use it immediately and finish it. I'm making sure that I don't hit any great skill checks so I can make sure the medkit is fully used. But after the medkit is completely…

PS4 issues STILL
I can play as many survivor games as I want and have absolutely zero issues with it. But whenever I try to play as killer, I get the infinite loading screen. Every. Damn. Time. I can't even complete half of the event tome because of this #########. FIX IT.
-
Three times in six trials...
I get RCPD. I'm about to start bringing map offerings every trial instead of bloodpoint offerings just so I can avoid this horrid map. Autohaven, Coldwind, MacMillan, or Saloon from now on!
-
Raccoon City Police Department
It is EASILY the worst map on the entire game. For survivors and killers. I tried for a few months to enjoy this map, but it has been impossible. I'm miserable any time I load in, regardless of what side I play on. Survivors: unless you played the Resident Evil games and know the map by heart, it's impossible to figure out…
-
PS4 Disconnection
Platform: PS4 Issue: Since the most recent patch released I've had a few games where I become disconnected right as the 5 second countdown to load in begins, or at some random time during the match. If I'm disconnected during the trial, I'm sent back to the end game screen and it shows me that the KILLER disconnected…
-
Do you face the same killer on the same map often?
I'm sure this is just wild coincidence or something that I just have seared into my mind after over 3k hours, but I feel like when I play survivor on certain maps I play against the same killers a lot. For instance, I feel like every time I load into Shelter Woods I play against a Mikey. When I load into Groaning…
-
Midwich is the worst map
Period. 50/50 killer/survivor, 3k hours. Midwich is literally the worst map in the game, for killers and survivors. I highly doubt you can convince me otherwise. There's too many pallets for survivors to use, even if they're unsafe. Stuns still gain distance. It's almost impossible to find a safe way to get from the first…
-
Not sure if cheaters or a bug
Just played against what seemed like a three or four man SWF. I was Wraith (rank 1, 3k+ hours) and we played on Lery's. I definitely made some misplays, but felt I was holding my own for a while. Then, suddenly, I was chasing a Claudette for quite a while, following her blood trail and scratch marks. I wasn't catching up,…

Played 4.5.0 for two days now. My feedback.
I played the mid chapter update for two days. Approximately 10 survivor matches and 5 killer matches. My feedback is as follows. -The new UI is horrible for killer and survivor. Having to look at four or five different areas of my monitor to find the info that I could find in one area previously is not only irritating, but…

Killer mains: rate my solo survivor build
Dead Hard, Decisive Strike, We're Gonna Live Forever, Aftercare. I know DS is problematic for some, but I try not to use it offensively, and after the patch, it will be impossible. I still plan to run it for potential end game plays and for the 1/10 chance that the killer tunnels me off hook. Other than that, I think I…

First killer game of the night
-4 man swf -Springwood offering -two hook offerings -map and key six second switch Yep. Sounds about right.

When survivors kill their teammates
Obviously this has been happening for a long time in this game, but lately I have been accused more and more of "camping" because I hook a survivor, see all three other survivors in my direct line of sight, and I don't leave the hooked survivor. If you are a survivor (or more likely a swf) that does this, stop. What…
-
Open letter to the swf that bullied me...
A few night ago I was playing Clown so I could get my "chase survivors for 300 seconds" challenge done. I load into a game with a Saloon map offering (and I believe a hatch spawn offering as well), and figured someone wanted to just play that map. Boy, was I wrong. I never realized how many double lockers, or lockers in…
-
Is not throwing pallets a new meta I missed?
To preface: I'm a PS4 player (crossplay on) and I definitely haven't been playing as often as I used to, but I have 3k hours in the game, probably 60/40 killer, but more survivor when I've played lately. I just started trying a tome challenge to destroy 25 dropped pallets. In one game as Spirit and three games as Trapper I…

Exhausted on the ground
What is the point of dedicated servers, hitbox validation, etc. if at least once per trial I use Dead Hard, get hit, but get an "exhausted" status effect while I'm laying on the ground? The server obviously recognized that I used Dead Hard AS the killer swung. So why am I not rewarded for having good instincts/reaction…
-
Hard tunneled three times in five matches
Title I'm only complaining a little bit. Just wish I could have normal gameplay tonight instead of running a killer for 4 gens, getting farmed and downed again right before the 5th gen, and then the killer getting 2 kills on 3 downs because of NOED. feelsbadman Carry on
-
Desperate Measures opinions
What are your thoughts on Desperate Measures? It seems situational to me, but I feel like if a killer is snowballing pretty well, it can help with a reset very quickly. I've used it in five matches as survivor and gone against it in two matches as killer so far, and I have found that it is most useful when the killer is…
-
This is why survivor mains get a bad name
I mentioned "no salt" because this guy's Playstation bio says, "DeadByDaylight and writing to me? Please don't salt the message. Let's be friends." Survivors that think they're entitled to DC and ruin the game for the killer and, more importantly, their teammates are complete trash. And this is a RED RANK survivor. Guy…

Are map offerings a PC thing?
I have over 2k hours in DBD on PS4. It wasn't until cross platform was introduced that there is a map offering in seemingly every single match that I play. It doesn't matter if I play killer or survivor, someone else is probably bringing a map offering. Is this typical PC behavior?
-
Six games in a row
I've been on a mini DBD hiatus for the past few months, usually only playing when I get bored of other games or after enjoying one too many adult beverages... I'm playing (relatively) sober tonight, and for the first time since the MMR system released. I have now played six killer games in a row where the survivors have…

Red icon in top left of screen
I just played a game against a Hag on PS4, and it was laggy as hell. I vaulted the same side of one pallet 3 times before the animation registered, but I was hit because of it. And I don't mean I vaulted, vaulted back, and vaulted a third time to the original side. I mean I rubberbanded during the vault animation twice…

Escape when next hook would kill you
I know I'm late to the party, as I haven't been playing DBD as often lately, but in stage 3 of the tome there is a challenge that is worded as follows: "Escape 1 trial(s) when your next time on the hook would immediately sacrifice you as Kate Denson." I have now done this as the last survivor alive (automatic death on…

Every time a new killer comes out on console
Why is it with every new release, survivors on consoles act like jerks? Console players don't get a chance to feel out a killer or his perks on PTB. We have to learn on the fly, even if you are in red ranks. I'm not asking for free wins, by any means, but today... I've played three games as Pyramid Head so far. In my first…

Is lag switching on PS4 possible?
I just went up against a Freddy on the Saloon map and he downed me while he was nowhere near me. I juked him after a hook save and when he teleported I started working on a gen. He came straight back to the gen I was on, which was kind of expected. As I was running away, he kind of lagged through me. I was confused,…

PS4 skillcheck bug
I played on Disturbed Ward against a Pig. While trying to get my RBT off, my skillcheck bar disappeared and stayed hidden for the remainder of the trial. I could still hear skillcheck notifications, but had no visual prompts whatsoever, causing me to fail any skillcheck for the rest of the match.
-
I've been gone for about 2 weeks and...
I was just wondering what the new thing to complain about is. Surely survivor mains and killer mains each have about four new things to gripe about, right?
-
What should killer difficulties actually be?
Looking at the killer "difficulty" today just made me think. For instance, The Doctor has a "hard" difficulty. I think Doctor is one of the easiest characters to play well with, considering he hardly needs tracking perks, even after his passive nerf but overall buff. Hag is "intermediate," but I think she is only behind…

Not a bad first Deathslinger game

With how fast gens go now, is Fire Up viable?
Hear me out. Last night I was just trying to do my EGC sacrifices and Rancor tome challenges, so I put on a full endgame build, complete with Fire Up, and it felt amazing getting those buffs when three, four, and five gens were done. Now that killers can expect two or three gens to be done before the first chase is over,…
-
What is your go to cosmetic?
I like having my girlfriend customize my characters. She's not much of a gamer (pretty much just Minecraft or Sims), so when I ask her how I should customize she gets a little excited, like she's part of my game. I use Ace and have the Smoking Jacket torso and bottoms with the Sharp Ace head. She said he looks like Hugh…

Revert rank reset changes
It's only been two months and the rank reset changes have already been God-awful. When I used to play rank 1 survivor, I would get some potatoe teams every now and then, sure. But now that anyone that plays for more than five hours a week is in red ranks, I'm getting constant games where "red rank survivors" can't last…
-
Give Me Challenges
After playing for over 1k hours and hitting red ranks every season, I need to spice my gameplay up. What are some killer or survivor "minigames" that you play to try and add variety to your games? Give me meme builds, challenges, or things I could handicap myself with to make the game more interesting!

The Ever Elusive...
Finally got my second ever Devour Hope 4 mori. And I was just going for a Pig daily of chasing survivors for 180 seconds!

Suture/Needle & Thread
Are the BP bonuses for these bugged? When I hit great skill checks I am only getting the 150 point "Great Skill Check" score, nothing additional. PS4

Best Feeling As Killer
I just played a rank 2 killer game as Wraith. I just needed a daily: sacrifice 2 survivors as The Wraith. I thought, okay, easy enough. Don't need to sweat. Don't really need to do anything different than I usually do. Build is as follows: Addons: Bone Clapper, Swift Hunt - Blood Perks: Corrupt Intervention, Haunted…
-
Prove Me Wrong
For the longest time I thought Head On was a pointless exhaustion perk. Didn't help you gain distance, didn't help you if you screwed up in a chase, just a quick stun for a killer. I have now used Head On (with Q&Q) for about 10 games, and jumping out of a locker and stunning a killer midchase is the most satisfying thing…
-
Daily Killer Rituals because...
My last seven daily rituals, or eight if you count the Nurse challenge I trashed for a new one, have been killer rituals. Playing on PS4 I've always had longer queue times for survivor than for killer. But since the Ruin nerf announcement, it seems that queues are even worse. Granted, this could be due to dedicated servers…
-
Dead Hard on PS4
Twice in three trials I have been hit during a Dead Hard animation. I get downed and exhausted before the animation is even finished. Is this some new dedicated servers BS or what? At least before the animation wouldn't even start, even if I got exhausted.
-
Console Queues
Is anyone else having queue issues on console? I play on PS4 and have been waiting for a survivor match for over 30 minutes. I have twice entered a lobby only for the killer to immediately (seemingly) back out and getting a host disconnect message. Why can't I get into a match??
-
Is my problem PC vs Console or...
NA (North America) vs. EU (Europe)? Let me start by saying I play rank 1 survivor and killer on PS4, have over 1k hours in DBD, and play in the southeast USA. I consider myself in the higher, but not tip top, tier of rank 1 players on PS4. Having said that... Why are my red rank teammates complete potatoes?? I swear, 90%…

Blood Warden buff suggestion
As soon as the Exit Gates are POWERED, not opened, Blood Warden activates. The auras of any survivors OPENING, not located inside, an Exit Gate are revealed to you. Once per match after BW is active, hooking a survivor will block both exits for 60 seconds *once the gates have been opened*. This allows killers that run BW…
-
No One Left Behind
Everyone is talking about the Kindred buff, but what about NOLB? I have yet to test it because I only played a few killer matches today, but it looks like a God tier endgame perk. 100% BP, 50% altruism speed, and unlimited range Bond during EGC? Pair it with BT and literally nobody will get left behind. Has anyone had a…

"Match Consequences"
It seems like half the time I escape, I still lose my items and addons. What's the deal with this?? Edit: I am NOT using all of the charges on said items.
