Which do you like / want more, new realms or locations?
I've been rolling this question around in my head for a bit, and I figured I'd put it up to a poll. Which is better / more important / interesting? Brand new realms that introduce new environments and fresh ideas which evoke a totally unique mood and sense of atmosphere? Or New locations in existing realms which expand on…

Licensed Survivors (choosing a representative)
CONTEXT: I wrote this as a youtube comment, and it went on for long enough that I figure I should probably post it on the forums. It was in response to a recent video that was talking about the criticism of Quentin Smith's addition instead of Nancy Holbrook, and how Quentin is actually a great character. I took that…

Stranger Things Chapter Perks - should they be renamed?
I'm well aware in matters of licensing, the community has less influence and sway than probably any other aspect of the game. However, I'm still posting this poll anyway- because the topic is ambiguous enough (to me at least) that I still want to hear others opinions on it. So we all know that Stranger Things is going to…

Should Chain Hunt interrupt the puzzle box?
Most of us agree that Pinhead could use a bunch of major changes, the primary issue being there's too low of a reward for a power that is as difficult to use as Pinhead's. Because of this he's not in the best place right now but on the bright side the foundational concept of how his power operates is solid and he looks to…

When will we see the next HORROR ICON ?
Pennywise, Candyman, Pinhead, Xenomorph, Predator, Jason, The Thing, Chucky, this is undoubtedly the big lineup of "Horror from the Decades". And I know somebody might say "yeah they're cool, but if you put them in all at once then there won't be anything "huge" left from that time to look forward to, so better to stretch…

What is your favorite Killer Weapon (or Variant)?
There are a wide variety of killer weapons out there in the fog: Slashing instruments which cut, tear, and rend flesh, brutal blunt objects which bruise, bend, and break bone. What's your favorite? Mostly thinking about your favorite weapon out of the default options for the Killer Roster, but feel free to mention any…

Which Killers play the most similar?
As far as new killers go, uniqueness is an attribute held in high regard and prized above much else even if we don't think about it very often. A strong, viable, and well balanced killer can overall be rated as a decent addition to the roster, but if they only re-use the same mechanics and do not innovate in fun and…

Do people actually believe Pyramid Head was nerfed?
And to take that initial question a step further, do people actually believe that Pyramid Head is in a better state than he was before? (balance and overall game-health-wise). These are debatably two separate questions, but for the sake of the poll I'm lumping them into one. I say this because of a recent thread I saw on…
-
Is the Eternal Blight the Worst Blight event released?
On the forums from past comment and discussion history I've put great emphasis on the importance of events, they keep the game fresh, the community vibrant, and prevents the game from stagnating. Most of this weight most specifically lands Halloween event (I think for obvious reasons, Dead By Daylight's most important…

Auras - Devs, we want answers.
This is absolutely ridiculous. In four years of playing the game I have never seen such an absolutely horrible change made to the base game. I have no idea how this made it through development without a single person on the team bringing up the fact that visibility for auras has been drastically reduced immensely. The…

Solution to Pyramid Head
The "Why" I'm aware that the devs are trying to change Pyramid Head very subtly to encourage PH players to go for other more bold strats beyond the extremely safe strategies of waiting for a pallet drop or vault to use punishment of the damned under threat of force through M1. So, you don't vault or drop the pallet you get…
-
Should cross-progression be linked to the forums?
So right now we've got a (surprisingly) functional crossplay between multiple platforms, that likely I'm sure will continue to be refined and get even better than it already is. The next thing people are looking toward is Cross-Progression so that they can not only port their progress but also their items, cosmetics, etc.…

Would you buy legendary skins if they were cheaper?
Preface This poll is the Second part of a two part connected poll question about Legendary skins and the thoughts and feelings of the community on them. If you have not answered the first, please do so prior: I spent a long time writing an analysis of the legendary skins that currently exist in the game, going over whether…

Have you bought Legendary Skins? And if not, why?
Preface This poll is the first part of a two part connected poll question about Legendary skins and the thoughts and feelings of the community on them. If you have not bought any legendary skins for any reason, I ask you vote on the second part of this poll here: Legendary skins. People like them in all sorts of games and…

What original characters fit into licensed stories?
With the next chapter confirmed to be licensed once again we the community are only just starting to run up the speculation cycle once more, about who could possibly make it into Dead By Daylight's amalgamation of horror. However, it got me thinking about the vice versa, what original Dead By Daylight characters could you…

I am not angry about the upcoming Hillbilly changes.
Why? Because I'm angry at the lack of changes, focus, and attention for CLOWN. The single change they created for the Clown was a step in the right direction, but a single step is not enough to finish a race let alone a brisk walk. The change he got undoubtedly makes his gameplay more smooth and has ever so much (at the…

Deathslinger V. Pyramid Head - who is stronger?
I was thinking about this just today after the Silent Hill chapter dropped on the live build, but Pyramid Head in his own way kind of plays similar to Deathslinger. It got me thinking about which one was actually better and it's a question that I think is actually compelling and interesting enough to merit some extra…

Easy solution to hook suicides
I'm seeing a lot of threads crop up with a lot of comments frustrated about survivors killing themselves right away on the hook, and it confuses me because there's a pretty simple solution to solve this problem (which I'm not sure people have discussed because I'm not reading through a full 5 or 3 pages of comments on…

Comprehensive buffs and changes to the Clown
People are talking about the Clown again after the recent 4th anniversary stream where the devs said they would be working on giving some love to the clown but the community seems unsure about what to give him. The Clown and his lore to a lot of people doesn't feel open-ended enough to create some unique secondary ability…

What licensed cosmetics do you want to see?
Licensed characters sport plenty of cool looks that we haven't seen yet in Dead By Daylight, but that doesn't mean they'll never happen. What do you want to see next? On a personal level, I was extremely hyped when rumor was going around that Ghostface would see a new cosmetic and I had high hopes it would be Scarecrow…

The Freddy Theory
This is just something I thought about after Predator: Hunting Grounds came out, following the trend of really popular horror licenses getting their own multiplayer games that star them as a hunter hunting other players... It got me thinking.. What if Dead By Daylight is Freddy's story? (albeit, it's probably not but it's…

New Complete, Concrete, and Comprehensive Changes for the Clown
This was originally a comment I took the time to make on a different thread, but became lengthy enough to warrant its own discussion I feel. The Clown needs buffs desperately, and because the devs have not peeped a word when it comes to the Clown maybe because they don't know what they want to do with him yet, the…
-
Candyman for Dead By Daylight?
I know IT Chapter 2 was bringing a lot of hype back to Pennywise, but it seems the devs missed the opportunity to coincide an IT chapter featuring Pennywise with the movie's release date. I would like to see the character come in ASAP to capitalize on the resurgence of the character, however, the devs might be looking…

Everybody has a key these days
And it's goddamn annoying. It's got to be one the singlehandedly cheapest way to win. After you've played for any significant amount of time as survivor (if you've picked a main, which most have) you'll be able to stockpile keys pretty easily. Even without the stockpile however, it's so weird how half the time I see a key…

New Ghostface cosmetics
I was watching a stream when the guy who was streaming pointed out that they were entertaining the idea of new designs for the classic Scream costume while filming Scream 4. The designs they came up with were a Scarecrow and Zombie Ghostface. Scarecrow Ghostface: Skele-Face / Soul Reaper Ghostface: Zombie Ghostface: As far…

New Gen Slowdown Perk Idea: Would you like to see this in game?
I thought about putting this into a compilation of other perk ideas that I have, but I'm a bit lazy and really just want to throw out the one idea out there. It's a pretty simple idea but I think it can be pretty powerful (especially when in a gen. slowdown loadout) Everybody's heard people beating the dead horse about how…

New Disconnection Penalty Idea:
I was recently watching a podcast with some very well known DBD content creators, Fog Whisperers, like Paulie Esther, Not Otzdarva, The King, Monto, etc. I'll provide the link here: (The Section I'm discussing begins at 24:28) https://youtu.be/cHZslbVfmuY?t=1469 And very interesting idea which I was just hearing about for…

Who here actually prefers the Withering Blight event over the Hallowed Blight?
I'm coming out and saying it, the Withering Blight is absolute garbage in comparison to the Hallowed Blight. On its own, for those who never played the Hallowed blight it might still be a grand time, but in comparison in sorely lags behind in multiple categories when set side by side with its predecessor. (Vote in the poll…

Clown buff idea
Many are very much aware that the state of the Clown (sad to say for such a Jolly guy) is not in the best of shape. Despite having a power that directly impacts the chase he somehow still remains lackluster and oftentimes appears in the bottom half of tier lists. While I don't think his situation is as dire as that of The…

Additional changes to Ghostface
I have yet to play on the PTB post Ghostface buff but from what I've seen and heard it was all very, very good similar to how the Spirit was garbage on release but was buffed to high tier later down the line. However, At the end of the day, Ghostface is no Nurse, Huntress, Hillbilly, or Spirit, and doesn't have much going…
