A light in the fog with the new chapter
Hey all, I'm sure everyone has seen the new chapter "Tools of Torment" and heard all the discourse about it. Even I did and I haven't played the game seriously in about 1.5 years now. But this post isn't about the new Killer, her design, the complete lack of a chase ability or her insane 3 gen potential. It's not about the…

An odd thing about the new Thanatophobia
In case you (somehow) haven't heard about it yet, this is how Thanatophobia will be changed with the upcomming hotfix patch: "Each injured, dying, or hooked Survivor will now provide a 1/1.5/2% action speed penalty. If all four Survivors are either injured, dying, or hooked, Thanatophobia grants an additional 12% penalty…

Dredge locker teleport suggestion
Heya, As we all know by now, if there is a set of multiple lockers next to each other, then the Dredge's locker teleportation ability will always prioritize a locked locker over an unlocked locker, unless there is a Survivor inside said unlocked locker / interacting with it. In other words, the Dredge will always teleport…

One thing about the new Thanatophobia I see almost everyone get wrong
Hey all, I've seen this misconception a lot today and therefore felt the need to make this post addressing it. What I'm talking about is the statement that "Legion and Plague are unaffected by the Thanatophobia nerf" (or variations of it). I don't think that is a very accurate statement to make. I do believe both Legion…

Help me decide the next cosmetic to save up for!
I just had a quick stroll around the store and have difficulties deciding which cosmetic to go for next, so I thought why not ask you guys and girls what you like best? I'll provide you with a screenshot of each cosmetic in what I find to be a fitting combination for it below: Option 1: The Trickster's "Brilliant Dye"…

Jolt description error
The last sentence reads "Generators affected by Jolt immediately lose 32 of their progress" I'm pretty sure that should be a percentage based number instead - and it's most likely not 32%. EDIT: I just noticed it also doesn't say anything about going on cooldown anymore. This is not the PTB where the cooldown has been…

I fear the Dead Hard changes have missed the mark
To clarify what I mean with that: The main strength of Dead Hard, at least in my opinion, did not lie in Dead Harding for distance, but rather in the fact that it was usable at any time without having an actual activation requirement that needed to be fulfilled. In fact, the oh so hated "Dead Hard for distance" was but a…

Deathslinger is depressing.
I played a couple of Deathslinger games yesterday evening. I had played some Survivor games with a friend and decided to let the evening ring out by trying the "new" Deathslinger out myself. I went in with the full knowledge of what they did to him and I went in expecting to lose my matches with a "I don't care, lets just…

My one complaint about the Community Challenges
Once you are done with your contribution you just sit there and wait for the next one to unlock, which then repeats the same problem. I think we should either be allowed to keep farming for this specific challenge to unlock the next one faster or we should be able to select and work towards the next challenges too once we…

I am returning to DbD! - and a question regarding MMR
No, the title is not deceiving you, I am indeed planning on reinstalling DbD and joining back into the fog with the start of the anniversary. I've made this decision based on a few factors: A friend of mine who actively plays the game and said he missed playing with me The overall good changes and patches that were made &…

Dead by Daylights biggest problem
Prologue Hello everyone, First of all, this is not actually a post that I really wanted to make. As some of you will probaply know, I no longer play this game, so my enthusiasm for it has dwindled too. I have just not been having the motivation to make a long post like this one for a long while now, though I did write down…

One change I would want to see, if Borrowed Time was actually made basekit
I think we can all agree that we can't just give Survivors BT basekit for free. It's one of the most picked Survivor Perks, its easily one of the strongest Survivor Perks as well. Just making it a basekit fuction would literally be a free 5th Perk slot per Survivor and is going to further widen the gap in strength between…

Was MMR a good addition to DbD?
hey all, its been a while since MMR released now so we've all had some time to get accustomed to it. since there has been quite a lot of controversy about it prior to its launch, i just wanted to quickly come by and see how the communities view on MMR has developed. thank you for participating!

To everyone who likes the MMR system better than the previous Emblem system
Hey all! in case you've missed it, i've made a Poll the other day about whether the community likes or dislikes the MMR system in order to see how the view of the community has changed (or not changed) between the latest MMR test run (with MMR being a rather controversial topic) and now after its full release. as of right…

thats it, im out. cya all in a week when this is over.
ive given MMR a lot of chances now. ive been playing quite a bit ever since they started this test and i keep telling myself "its gonna get better soon! im sure MMR is gonna give me a better match next game :D" - and i have yet to have a single enjoyable game. here is how my matches went so far: 1) they stomp me and i get…

playing a bot match unequips everything on the played character
i know there was a known issue like this before where everything on every character got unequipped, but since that has been addressed in a bugfix patch before and the issue is still at hand (on a much smaller scale though), i feel like its right to treat this as a new bug? anyway, you still lose your entire loadout when…

reworking some bad Ultra Rare Add Ons for Killers
hey all! it probaply doesnt come as a surprise to anyone that we have some pretty terrible UR Add Ons for some Killers. this post is going to try and buff or outright rework those Add Ons into something that might be better. as always, if you have any suggestions and / or ideas of your own, please share them down below! (i…

Survivors shouldnt be able to duck under Nemesis Tentacle Strike
ive had a strong suspicion that this was the case when playing him, but up to now i always said "gotta be latency. im sure on their screen the tentacle didnt just slap right through them!". today i went in a Custom Game with a friend - and my suspicion was right. Survivors can avoid an Tentacle Strike over small obstacles…

would anyone else like to see those as actual cosmetics? (ft. Executioner & Oni)
a while ago i made a post about a really cool visual bug on Oni (pic below for reference), so you can consider this to be a part two of that. this time we'll be featuring the Executioner with a really cool looking blade! here is a zoomed in version so you can see it more clearly: btw if you want to recreate this ingame…

let us disable chat filter
seriously. its annoying, its unnecessary and it KEEPS FILTERING THE WRONG WORDS. just learned that "hawkins" is blocked. why? yes this is (at least above the line) a rant. because i keep getting completely normal messages censored & conversations screwed by this thing for absolutely no reason. and the best part? it doesnt…

The Trappers visual update
hey guys, i just wanted to quickly take the time and make an positive post about the latest update. it has its ups and downs, but i think we can all agree on the Trappers visual update being a very clear up. not only does he look really good now, they also updated his Bear Trap skins - they not only look much cooler now,…
-
So i just checked DbDs Twitter account (for the first time in eons)
and i found this: (yes, im not a very active Twitter user) so, do we all agree that we need a Blight skin that has him puke rainbows now? one of the few skins I'd pay money for, not gonna lie. please?

So... we're getting an auto ban feature.
and i am honestly scared of that. the way it was worded makes it look like a certain amount of reports will automatically lead to a ban on your profile, which, obviously, would be quite a problematic thing due to the possible report system abuse resulting from that. basically, people could start reporting you for nonsense…

Hook Suicides
hey all, a rather short (looking back at it after writing it, it wasnt that short after all - ive added a short TL;DR at the bottom ^^), rantish kind of post today, so my apologies for that. so ive been playing quite a bit of survivor recently. obviously my main goal is getting the tome challenges done, so ive been doing…

So i opened a locker...
no idea ######### happened here, but i opened this locker with a survivor inside. this is what happened as soon as i started pulling them out: the locker stayed like this for the rest of the trial.

Why should i play Trickster?
genuine question. i tried, but every game ive played him the survivors beat me. and it wasnt even a struggle for them, i filled up maybe 50% of my hook meter by the time the 5th gen popped and then i struggled really hard to get any kills at all. and then i get teabagged, flashlight clicked / chainblinded and made fun of.…
-
chat filter...
okay so i was originally going to make a list of unnecessarily banned words, but during the testing for this i noticed something. apparently the chat filter will randomly be banning words without any good reason behind it, but then wont ban them in literally the next message. an example: the german word "ich" (which means…

The reason why Trickster is such a bad killer - and why the buffs will barely help
hey all! today i'd like to take a bit of a closer look at the Trickster as a character and his ability and quickly break down why i think the killer is in such a bad spot balance wise, even after the freshly announced buffs, and would like to point out the problems that need to be addressed. so to begin this, i'd like to…

How cool is that? (visual Oni Bug)
Hey all, so i was just testing some cosmetics out on Oni and happened to switch out his body cosmetic right when he activated his Demon Mode. the result of that was that he no longer was in Demon Mode, yet the visuals of it were still there - and the Prestige Weapon looks awesome with those (the Weapon is usually not…

my suggestions for Trickster
Hey all! so ive been playing a lot of Trickster lately and, sadly, my experience with him wasnt the greatest. Overall, anytime the survivors actually tried to win, they did - quite easily on top. Lets be honest, right now he is but a 4.4 m/s M1 Killer. the main problems i found him to have are: 1) no map pressure 2) very…

lost a pip for the game getting cancelled
loading in took a while and then the "player disconnected while loading" screen popped up. then i was back at killer rank 2 :)

Deep Wound & Blindness suggestion
hey all, today i'd like to share an idea ive had a short while ago regarding the Deep Wound and the Blindness status effect. As we all know, being inflicted with Deep Wound makes the Survivor run on a timer. This is visually indicated to everyone with a bright orange bar underneath the survivors name, the bleedout bar,…

is this ment to be this way or is it a bug?
so basically, i'm on my final few Bloodwebs before i have Nurse fully maxed out (yay :D). i managed to get every perk up to level two, so only tier 3 perks will appear in my bloodwebs - yet for the last couple of Bloodwebs i havent gotten more than 3 Perks to choose from (when its usually 4), even though i have more than…

Ice-Capped Jeans is 1:1 Hillbillies default trousers
the pair of trousers for Hillbilly in the free track of the rift at tier 34 ("Ice-Capped Jeans") is just 1:1 the exact same skin as his default pair of trousers. i'm just going to assume (and sincerely hope) this is a bug.

Visual Bug with the Nurses Withering Soul cosmetic
basically after equipping the Withering Soul body on her, the smoke effect on her arms transfers over to other cosmetics aswell. dunno how its ingame, havent tested it yet. it goes away when you switch to another killer and then back at her though.
-
I too made a Killer Tier list based on their Teachables!
TL;DR: if you dont want to read all of this, you can easily skip anything from below the picture, as that is just for clarification purposes! you only need to read through it should you have questions, as that may answer them. i saw some people on here doing such lists and i thought that was a fun and interesting idea,…

broken charm
the "Postula Flower" charm isnt being displayed properly. as you can see, the charm (the green one that is selected) just isnt visible. the bug fixes itself when you unequip and reequip it btw.

I just felt the need to share this
poor Otz xD anyone else got any funny clips / stories to share? :D

Cosmetics not displayed properly after exiting the shop
i just went to the shop to screenshot some of my Killer cosmetic combos and when i came back i was greeted by this lovely boy. it goes away after witching to another character and then back on him and i dont know whether thats an ingame (in a trial) issue aswell or not.
-
Trials keep getting cancelled
ive tried playing two trials now, both of which started completely normal and played completely normal, until they just suddenly got cancelled. the game then told me that "The trial got cancelled because someone failed to load in" - 1 or 2 minutes into the trial (and yes, there was an AFK survivor each time) and from what…

Issues I have with the game in its current state
Hello everyone, i have returned from the break i took a while ago,when the last Rift closed, and within the few weeks that i have been playing again, i couldnt help but notice some problems that upset me. (sadly most are already well known problems that just never got fixed) This is not a post regarding any balancing…

Add a search bar / filter
The more Chapters are being released and the more Perks are being added to the raster, the harder it gets to find a specific perk you are looking for. Especially now, that they all have the same rarity it got even more complicated, so it would be great to have a search bar where you can type in the name and it will…

I dislike linked skins
i totally get it that sometimes you create something that needs to work together with another cosmetic piece to work, such as the Legions Mascot series (btw, can we talk about you making 4 times the exact same cosmetic just with different colouring for 10$ each?), but by linking so many skins together, you totally deny me…
