Killers: A Question (Long Post)
Before I get started on this post I feel that there needs to be a few points made in order for this to be effective and not immediately dismissed as a bait thread. This is a question regarding toxicity. Let me first give my definition of toxicity! Toxicity is not face camping, slugging, or any perk. The devs have already…

Where do you file a report?
I've never wanted to submit evidence with a report against another player until last night. Is there a place where you can/should submit a video from a match along with a report against a player? If anyone could let me know that'd be great. The video is of someone using obvious cheats.

Puzzlebox: Would you rework it? How?
I am sad to report that I've barely gotten to play the game since the release of the Hellraiser chapter but from what small handful of games I've played against Pinhead (the rest were the ole usual crew) I have to say that I really like going against him. He felt fresh, engaging, I saw a variance in skill and how punishing…

Your Dream Survivor: Concept discussion!
If you had complete control to design the new Survivor who would they be? What would they look like and what would their outfit themes be? What would the basis of their backstory be? Do you have any perks you'd include? I'd love to hear and discuss them together! Mine would be the teen slasher lead girl trope! I grew up in…

Survivor Main: I played 40 rounds of Killer... [Long Post]
I've always been a Survivor main. I've played Killer and I've had phases where I leaned in that direction but for the most part I've always enjoyed playing Survivor more and have developed my DbD skills more in that side of the game. Recently I decided I'd play 40 rounds of Killer (I did about 10-12 a night) to get a feel…
-
Broken DH? Survivor totems? Other questions...
Hi everyone! I'm having trouble tracking down answers and thought I'd reach out to the community for some updates! Dead Hard is broken on consoles. Do we know when that is going to be fixed? My friend has said that his game freezes for a second or two every time he uses it or that he has appeared behind the Killer. I've…
-
Is anyone changing their main due to cosmetics?
I hope everyone is enjoying the double BP event this weekend! This post is something of a mini-rant and combination of curiosity and seeking solidarity. I've been a Kate main for years. I have every teachable and base perk on her in the max purple rank. I have unlimited items on her including anniversary items that I…
-
What updates/content did I miss?
Hi there, everyone! I've been down and out with health issues and am only now being able to check the DbD forum/Twitter from my phone for the first time in about two and a half weeks. While I know the information is here I also know that I can count on you lovely people to answer some questions and get me back up to speed!…
-
Killer Campfire?
We all know the lore of Survivors reuniting with one another again and again by the campfire after their attempts at escape. But what does the lore say about Killers? I can't even speculate because I genuinely don't know if this has been addressed or not. Do the Killers have a neutral ground where they go between rounds?…
-
Killers: Never Hooked to Mori'd
Hi guys! Let me first say that this is not an attempt to start an argument or to start a pile-on of toxicity. This is something that I'm genuinely curious about and would love to get Killer main's opinion on! Let's all be kind and respectful to one another! My question is about moris and the recent uptick I've personally…
-
Daily Challenges: Always for the other side?
Do the daily challenges always seem to be for the other side for everyone else? I have started to think that maybe it's just because I always complete the Survivor ones but in the past two weeks I've cleared one every chance I have and I've only gotten one Survivor challenge! It's always Legion, Clown, Trapper, Huntress,…
-
Survivors: Do you consider this taking the game hostage? (light rant)
A question for my fellow Survivors! In the majority of games that I have played in the past two weeks when there are two Survivors left in the match the Killer will slug to ensure that the hatch opening is never an option. I have played a few rounds where Survivors have called this taking the game hostage. Some talking…
-
Any news on the character reworks?
I thought that Dwight, Meg, Jake, and Claudette reworks were going live last month. Any word on when we are getting those?
-
Tunneling Tactic Increase?
This is not a thread debating the tactical viability of tunneling. The devs themselves have said that tunneling is acceptable. It is what it is. What I'm wondering is if anybody else is noticing a huge spike in it lately? I've seen it constantly the past two weeks. I played 8 rounds tonight and was tunneled in literally 4…
-
The Kate Rework I Want...
The Kate rework is out and the more I look at it the more I dislike it. I feel it is such a huge deviation from her original model and that it makes her look both angry and rodent-like. Because I am a die-hard Kate fan I decided to rework what I wish she would look like instead. And I thought I'd share it with you guys! 😊…
-
Character Model Rework Releases
I think that Meg, Dwight, Claudette, and Jake release on the 15th with the Resident Evil chapter. Is that correct? When are David, Adam, Feng, Kate, and Ace reworks going live? Thanks in advance, I am struggling to find a definitive answer to this! 😊
-
Hitboxes & Sync?
Have there been any recent announcements about a plan to work on hit boxes and better game synchronization between Killers and Survivors? Everything that I'm finding in my search is from quite awhile ago.
-
Killers (& Survivors): Who do you ship?
Previously I asked which Survivors you guys shipped and got so many fun answers! Now I'd like to know which Killers you ship! 😍 (feel free to ship Killers x Survivors too!) I ship... Nurse x Pyramid Head - maybe this is just because of the nurses from S.H. but it just clicks in my mind. Trickster x Kate - they are both…
-
Easiest Killer to Play?
When you play Killer who do you get the most wins with and why? Certain playstyles lend themselves to certain Killers so I'm curious to know which ones you all find most intuitive! I have the most fun with Legion but am the worst Killer in existence. I'm so bad at it! That said I have to go out of my way to not get a 4k…
-
Your Dream Costume
To counter some of the heaviness of the forums today I thought it'd be fun to talk about cosmetics! If you could have any costume for any of the existing characters what would you choose and why?
-
Player 'Liking'?
With talk of new rating systems (the auto-ban and such...) did they mention something positive like implementing a reward system for likes? I cannot stress enough how badly I want me liking well-playing Killers to actually do something! Even if it is just a notification for them, or a measly 25 bloodpoints, I think this…
-
Does anyone know how to friend cross-platform?
I'm on a PS4 and I've got a few Steam users I'd like to play the game with. Searching for their username or their Steam I.D. doesn't bring up any results. Does anyone know how to do this? Any help is appreciated! 😊
-
Hatch Glitch?
I am completing the challenge of No One Left Behind. The match is against a very serious playing red rank 1 Killer. I find the hatch long after it's opened. I'm standing on it. And... Nothing? I press R1 over and over and nothing is happening. The Clown is a few yards away and has time to casually walk over and kick it…
-
Survivors: SWF Antics
Odd question for Survivors! When you're in a SWF how much of your chat is related to the game? My friends and I probably SWF 'wrong'. Our chat is almost entirely jokes or personal conversations to such a degree that we will often miss Killer cues due to laughter or have to stop mid-sentence to remark about how long someone…
-
Survivor Challenge: Blood Debt
"Unhook a Survivor who unhooked you earlier in the trial 3 time(s). Must unhook them safely." Get hooked twice. Get unhooked by a different person each time. One of them must get hooked twice and unhooked by you both times. The other must get hooked once and unhooked by you. Am I understanding how to do this correctly? And…
-
Nemesis/Zombies: Questions!
I've not yet had the time to watch the announcement video so my knowledge is entirely limited to articles and this forum so far! So I apologize in advance if this information is readily available. I understand that Nemesis can spawn the zombies. Have they said how many? Do they expire or are will they be constant threats?…
-
Your Dream Map/Survivor/Killer?
If you had complete artistic control over a chapter release what would your map/Survivor/Killer be? What themes would you base it around? Would it be an original set or is there a licensed franchise you'd want to have adapted to the game? I would love a Victorian mansion map! Something on the smaller/medium side but almost…
-
Killers: A Genuine Question
Hi all! Survivor main here! This question might sound salty and/or bait-y but I genuinely want to know something! This is not an anti-Killer post, this is not an anti-perk post, this is not meant to provoke anything negative. Do you enjoy chases? Be honest! So often I've been seeing Starstruck paired with the terror radius…
-
Red Rank: Huntress, Spirit, Bubba
I just got to red rank again as Survivor and have played 16 rounds tonight. I've only gone against Huntress, Spirit, and Bubba. I wish I was kidding. Is this typical in red ranks now or am I just having a really unlucky night? It's not that I dislike going against Bubba or Huntress it's just that I'm kind of.... Bored?
-
What rank SHOULD you be?
Honest evaluation time! What rank do you think you should be at based on your skill and gameplay? The pip system fast-tracked me from rank 20 to rank 8 in a matter of days. I'm sure I'll be back to rank 1 by the end of the week. But if the system was an accurate representation of skill and gameplay style I'd say I really…
-
The Weirdest Match I've Had... (Rant)
I just had one of the strangest rounds I've ever had and am basically just ranting about it! Entire cross-play match. Rank 1 Wraith with add-ons. Rank 1 Survivor. Two Rank 3 Survivors. Despite not being very good I constantly pip and went from rank 20 to rank 9 in a matter of days so that's where I'm at. I am fairly…
-
Original VS Licensed Characters
Which do you prefer and hope to see more of in the game? While the licensed characters are fun and have crowd appeal I personally hope to see a lot more original Survivors and Killers in the game. The dev team is so creative and comes up with great lore that I think really shines the most when they have total freedom in…
-
Killers: Do you check Survivor names?
Hey Killers! When you're in pre-game do you check Survivor names and recognize/memorize names? Does it ever affect the way that you play your game if you recognize a Survivor? I'm just curious! I think I went against the same Killer once and that they were less aggressive the second time around but I don't know how much of…
-
Are there any Rift challenges you can't complete?
Having 100% the current Rift (Survivor side, at least) I've returned to the bane of my DbD existence in an attempt to finally complete it. That is... Rift 1. "Dark Senses - Finish repairing 4 generator(s) using the perk Dark Sense. Complete this challenge in a single trial." I have never been able to get this. I've…
-
Killers - Sparing Survivors?
Survivor main here! I'm curious to all you Killers how often do you spare Survivors because of things like gestures and impossible odd scenarios? Examples... Pointing at you / boop the snoot - that sort of thing. Does that inspire sympathy or encourage unusual gameplay? 'Impossible' odds/great plays - 2 Survivors dead. 1…
-
Transfer Progress/Profile?
Will we ever be able to transfer our DbD profile to another system? I'd love to play on my PC instead of my console but I've spent so much money on my cosmetics (plus gotten Rift exclusive unlocks) that I can't bring myself to leave it behind. In truth the only reason I even still have a console is for this game. 😂 I don't…
-
Survivors: Share your favorite non-meta builds!
Hello fellow Survivors! What non-meta builds do you most enjoy running and why? Currently I am running Inner Strength, Dark Sense, Prove Thyself, and Lightweight and I'm actually having a lot of fun with it. Inner Strength - it's really the only self-healing perk I enjoy since it is conditional and requires some gameplay.…
-
Favorite/Funniest Comments
I hope this thread is taken as it is meant to be - positive and uplifting! Do you know the old saying about laughter being the best medicine? Earlier tonight I saw a post where a Killer mentioned having been called a 'pussy killer' - they even pointed out the humor with the double meaning and it gave me a bit of a laugh.…
-
Countering Spirit (Perkless)
What are some good gameplay counters to Spirit? I don't run into her enough to justify always keeping one or two of my perk slots reserved for her. I just want to understand her gameplay a bit more. I've been away for a long while. It used to be to counter Spirit you didn't run and you always kept moving unless you were on…
-
Positive After-Match Messages
What are some of the best ways you like to congratulate the other side after a match? I am looking for new ways which can't be mistaken as sarcasm. Gg - can be mistaken for 'get good' Well played - seems to be misinterpreted often Thanks for the match - seems to be taken as sarcasm English is not my native language and I…
-
Does 'Thumbs Up' do anything?
I remember a long time ago the devs had talked about implementing a reward system for 'thumbs up' for a player after a match. Has this happened yet? Honestly, even just a notice of "X gave you a thumbs up" might be nice. I just went against a rank 18, 2 yellow perk Billy who tried really hard (in a good way). He went…
-
Less fog?
I love the new maps (I've been away for awhile so I hadn't seen the updates) but is there less fog? I feel like on most maps now you can see clearly from one side to the other. Is this just my imagination or is there significantly less fog than before?
-
Graphic Updates
Is every Killer and Survivor getting a graphic overhaul / upgrade? Or is it just the original 4 Survivors and OG Killers? I'm hoping for an update to Kate!
-
Updated Character Models?
When will we get the updated character models? I've seen the pictures on Twitter, I see the new maps in game, but I'm not noticing the update on Dwight, Meg, Jake, Claudette, or Doctor. Or am I just totally blind?
-
Returning after hiatus - Questions!
Hey everyone! I've been away since about September of '20 and returned to find so much new content! I'm super excited! That being said I've got a few (probably obvious/basic) questions that I'd super appreciate anyone taking the time to answer. What's the best way to counter Blight? In playing today he was the most…
-
Survivors: Who do you ship?
Asking here because this is where I see the 'who is hotter' posts! 🤣 For me it is Dwight x Kate, forever and always. I ship the nerd finally getting the pretty girl.
-
Cheryl Mason's Cosmetics - A Question
Is there a reason why Cheryl's cosmetics are locked to an outfit and not able to be mixed and matched? I am not talking about her Legendary outfit (which has a different body and animations). I bought the dark haired Cheryl option and wanted to put that head on the default body and am unable to. Is this a glitch?…
-
Exit Hatches Need To Open Quicker
I'm ready for the spicy comments on this one. <3 But it is my honest opinion that the exit hatch needs to open more quickly. If a survivor is 3rd hook and instant dies the hatch still takes so long to open. I just had a very, very long and well played game on the PS4. Honestly there were very little mistakes made by either…
-
New Matchmaking?
Survivor main here - Rank 2 Survivor, Rank 17 Killer. PS4 player. I think I recall reading that this new update was going to change matchmaking. I've noticed that my wait times are about 1/4th what they were before but was wondering if anyone could explain what changed? The problem that has always stopped me from playing…
-
Rank 1 Killers: What else?
Matchmaking is broken. We all know this. That is why this question is directed almost exclusively to Killers who are at the top of the ranking system. What further changes would you like to see to the game and why? I mean this in a positive manner when I say that as someone who plays Killer/Survivor equally these days I…
