Maps need a shakeup - and I'm not talking about balance
This is something that's been rattling around in the back of my mind for a while, and I think the moment I finally snapped and decided to make this post that, frankly, about four people are going to read was when I was playing on Greenville Square and realised that half the map is literally just rocks and boulders with…

'Lights Out' makes me want to punch my own lights out
I tried to play through ten or so survivor matches of the new 'Lights Out' Game Mode. I have to say, if nothing else, this event really makes you feel like Alan Wake in the Dark Place... Desperate for escape. Surrounded by encroaching darkness. Void of anything but fleeting hope, snuffed out the moment I realise the killer…

Why I'm struggling with Dead by Daylight: A Statement
Hello people of the Fog, alas, the time has come, yet again, for me to ponder my Dead by Daylight and Hooked on You: A Dead by Daylight Dating Sim journey and whether or not it should come to a close. The game has weighed on me with the weight of a thousand pebbles but I have forced myself onward. I collect bloodpoints. I…

Dead by Daylight/Red Dead Redemption 2 Crossover - Arthur Morgan Survivor Concept
Arthur Morgan – DBD Survivor Concept (Spoilers for Red Dead Redemption 2!) Bio “Arthur knew, finally, in that moment where the darkness began to give way to the sun, that he would die. Micah had beaten him within an inch of his life and yet, somehow, he had begun to drag his frail body over to where the revolver lay, one…

Seriously, what's going on with the killers during this event?
My experience with this event has been awful the last few days. I main survivor, and pretty much more than half of my games have involved killers going out of their way to play nasty for no reason other than spite. Bubbas burning brown offerings and facecamping from the get go, survivors being hard tunnelled out from the…

Why play Skull Merchant at all?
Throwing my proverbial hat in the ring here. I've seen many arguments state that the only way to play SM optimally is to prioritise 3 genning - essentially picking three gens that are close together and patrolling those three while planting drones on them consistently - this is from the very beginning of the match. I do…

Why I can no longer enjoy Dead by Daylight
Hi people of the Fog. I didn't want to make this post, but ultimately I feel as though it is the only course of action I can take given what has transpired with this game over the course of the last year. Some of you may take offense to what I am about to say, and for that I am sorry (skill issue). I hope that with this…

PS5 - game is crashing whenever I play killer for more than five minutes
Today I've booted up the game and queued into killer with Deathslinger no problems. Then randomly after I reel someone in around five minutes in my game (on Dead Dawg) full on crashes and I'm kicked off the game entirely. n I chalked this up to be a random crash and rebooted and played a game of Sadako on Red Forest. Same…

What ideas do you guys have for an original killer - what would you like to see?
I think we can all agree that BHVR hits it out of the park when it comes to original killer designs. Now that the next chapter is very likely to be original, what kind of killer are you hoping to see? I've always had this idea of a survivor turned killer that could be really cool if executed well. Some sort of parallel…

Differences between Console and PC DBD? Thinking of switching temporarily
I've only ever played DBD on console. Recently I've been put in a situation where I'll be away from my Playstation for some time. I have a decent laptop that I'm sure could run DBD on half decent settings and a plug in mouse. A friend has told me to get the PC version so it looks like I am begrudgingly. Any advice for…

Which killer has the best chase music?
I'm biast in this response but I have to say Deathslinger. His music is just such a jam. Really makes me come alive in the chase when I'm playing him or against him. The aesthetic is on point too. I would give a runners up to Dredge for similar reasons. It's really fast and tense and adequately fits the image of some giant…

Does anyone else feel obligated to continue playing the game at the moment and not know why?
I'm wondering if this is just me because I'm genuinely convinced I'm insane. I play this game nearly every day when I have free time. Whenever I play it with friends or stream it I must sound miserable. I feel dejected and pessimistic about most matches as soon as they start. I slog through one match to the next and the…

Based on your experience with the update, what additional changes does the game need?
I personally think survivor needs some QoL basekit updates to improve the survivor experience much as killer got some much welcomed changes to improve theirs. For example, a basekit Kindred and an ability to view each other's loadouts before the match begins to improve coordination and strategy amongst survivors that…

This update finally drove me to uninstall DBD
I'm not sure what the community's personal experience with the update has been, but mine has been awful. As someone who enjoys running off-meta builds I was excited to experiment with the new survivor perks that had been buffed with this update. Unfortunately I didn't really get the chance to use them in more than half my…

How can I play differently as a survivor to counter a Spirit?
Hi, average maybe slightly below average survivor main here. I've found that consistently when I verse Spirits I have no idea what I'm really doing and run around like a headless chicken whenever they pull out their vacuum cleaner and phase which leads to me being on the floor 90% of the time. The other 10% they're not…

Question about the Upcoming Bloodhunt
The Bloodhunt today is supposed to 'double your bloodpoints' at the end of the trial. Is this the equivalent of throwing in an extra set of streamers (an extra 100%) that applies to the points you earned during the match or does it double your total BP after flans and that have been calculated (so you end with 150k, and…

Concerned about Legion with this latest Developer Update
We all know that Thanataphobia is already a must for Legion and that Legion as it stands isn't exactly the most invigorating killer to face. As much as I love having to mend for five minutes every match, I don't want to spend half an hour repairing gens because Thana now slows the speeds by 22% and gens take ten seconds…

PS4 - 'Sprint Burst' permanent speed bug on Shelter Woods
I am playing on PS4. I loaded into a game on Shelter Woods vs a Blight. The very second the match started, I had a greatly increased movement speed, as if I had permanent sprint burst. A speed boost was still applied for when I would walk or crouch as well, like if you started walking mid sprint burst. It was literally…

Speed boost bug on Shelter Woods - is this new and can I get banned?
I just had a match on Shelter Woods vs a Blight. Only problem was that the second the match started, my Laurie was moving insanely fast. We're talking at least sprint burst speed, permanently, regardless if I was walking or sprinting. I felt like I was chasing the killer more than he was chasing me. Anyway I cranked the…

Daily rituals should reward rift fragments as well as bloodpoints
Was thinking about this and if rituals were to reward you fragments it would help reduce the grind of the rift by a fair bit (I know for the 2nd rift I really struggled to complete it because I took a break for a few weeks and had to buy the last six tiers) whilst also encouraging players to log on daily and play so they…
