Do bloodpoint incentives only last a single game?
Playing on XBSX. Played a killer game yesterday with 100% bloodpoint incentive. Noticed it wasn't active for the second game, so I curiously restarted my game and the bloodpoint incentive returned for the killer role. Do bloodpoint incentives only last a single game, or odd coincidence?

The Perk Overhaul and The Nurse
The Perk Overhaul is coming up to shake up the game's stale meta. Killers feel like they must run slowdown perks to compete in games where generators are completed way too quickly. Survivors feel like they only have 8 or so strong perks, and have to run second chance perks in a state of the game where MMR leads to…

What's missing from MMR
How can DbD make an effective MMR system? Start tracking the right stats. Just imagine the game actually tracked killer and survivor stats. Stats available to the player per killer, such as average time in chase, injures, hooks, kills, power usage, number of gens completed, number of escaped survivors, etc. For survivor,…

The Stridor change highlights BHVR's inability to create proper balance changes
It's fairly easy to see why Stridor, an otherwise non-problematic and niche perk was changed to be countered by Iron Will, no longer countering it. It's a band-aid Spirit nerf. This is going to be slight conjecture, but knowing how the devs identify their targets for balance changes, statistics of Stridor probably showed a…

Not running any second chance perks as survivor makes you a liability
The last few days of this sweaty event has shown me that the new killer meta is to tunnel a single survivor out of the game as quickly as possible, no nuances needed. Killers I queue into are consistently trying to remove someone from the game to ease the pressure. Which leads me to this conclusion... If you aren't running…

Rank 1 Pip Bank
I really don't care about my rank. As a rank 1 survivor and killer, I could care less about it. However, the only time I care about rank is when I depip to rank 2. I find it punishing that one can go several games in a row obtaining pips at rank 1 just to lose it after a single game's performance. Rank 1 should have a pip…

Maria Legendary Skin from SH2
The Jonathan Byers skin gives me hope that we could eventually see a return to the Silent Hill license with a Maria Legendary skin from Silent Hill 2. Animators and art designers at BHVR could have a field day making her promiscuous demeanor and outfit come to life. Maria Legendary skin when?

Loadout Icon text suggestion (Survivor)
First off, I'm pretty sure these text boxes on the menu icons are new. It's a good addition even though it's a small one. But, I think the Loadout text should be reworded. It's sort of an oxymoron, saying you can equip up to 2 add-ons, and also equip an item. Obviously as a survivor you can only equip add-ons on items you…

Why do we excuse Nurse?
A high skill floor with a near game-breaking skill ceiling is bad game balance and bad game design. That's really not debatable. I understand that Nurse players have been honing in their craft for years and changing the way she plays would really screw Nurse mains over, but why is this allowed to go on when it's a…

Is NOED outdated?
Aside from minor tweaks to the tiers effectiveness of the perk in Patch 2.3, the last time NOED was changed was in Patch 1.5, which changed the perk to a Hex totem, thus removing the timer and changing it to last indefinitely until the associated hex totem is cleansed. Patch 1.5 released in late April of 2017. NOED has…

Easiest change to the bloodweb
Under no circumstances should the bloodweb be offering three new rank 1 perks when you already have 15+ rank 1 perks purchased and waiting to be upgraded. It is blows my mind that already acquired perks are not offered to be upgraded to rank 2 sooner. Bloodwebs should offer 2 new rank 1 perks AT MOST in these situations.…

Most fun killers to play against (Tier List)
Purely opinion based. Killers rated highly are fun to play against, and overall give survivors good chases. Some boring killers, though chase heavy, get lower rated (e.g., Legion and Pig). Assumption that killer is not using game changing addons or facecamping (e.g., Tombstone Myers or facecamp Bubba).

Does blocking someone lower the chances, or make it impossible to queue into them again?
I know some games have this feature, hopefully DbD does too. Facing the same insufferable Deathslinger who BMs us every other day is miserable.

A Twins rework...
I'd like to start this post off by saying that the Twins are arguably the most unique and ambitious killer that has been released. The idea that the killer's power is the ability to switch between both of the Twins is very cool, and if tweaked and set in the right direction, could be one of the more fun killers to play,…

Unintended collision on Rotten Fields
There is a sort of collision where your survivor can get stuck when attempting to run over a pile of trash. This trash pile is located next to the stacked round hay bales tile. The trash pile is usually located on a corner of the long side, and looks like a pile of opened cans and such. It completely stops survivor…

Anyone else feel like this always happens to them?
It's a running joke amongst my friends and I that whenever one of us brings bloody party streamers, the killer brings a Mori. This happens way too often to me. Doesn't matter if I bring streamers solo queuing, or in a SWF. Moris aren't so much of a problem after the change, but it still stings just a little to reward a…

Consoles need access to the pre-game and post-game chats
It makes no sense why a vital communication tool is only accessible on one platform. It devalues crossplay as a whole. Cross-progression can be complicated, but I see no reason as to why multi-platform chats are not in the game. I feel as though the lack of a pre and post-game chat contributes to the rift between PC and…

Nurse and Oni mains: why do you four man slug?
I'm sure I am not alone in dreading survivor queues currently knowing there are Nurse tome challenges. Here come the Nurse mains in full force, which isn't normally an issue unless they four man slug at 4 or 5 gens left with Infectious Fright, like Onis who are perfectly fine with slugging as well. What do you have to gain…

In Light of the 'Toxic Cycle'
I recently watched a Scott Jund video in which he talked about the endless toxic cycle of DBD. I really agree with the points made in this video. However, I really don't know how many more games I can play, executing a near flawless match with NO second chance perks and getting insta-downed on my first hit by NOED.…
