lets discuss why are camping and tunneling considered bad?
survivors tunnel gens as killers tunnel survivors to gain an advantage. if a killer tunnels a survivor to make the game a 3 vs 1 it is seen as bad (the whole killers should go for hooks not kills mentality)...yet survivors dont finish a gen halfway leave and go work on another gen unless they are chased off. killers…
-
lets discuss proper etiquette in dbd
As killer: what is the proper etiquette if a survivor is afk at the beginning of the match? Do you go slug them and leave, hit them once and leave, ignore them and chase the teammate, down them and hook them? As killer: do you give the last survivor hatch if they stop wiggling on your shoulders/is the last one left or do…

lets discuss which characters are worth getting to p100
and why thalita and skull merchant are the correct answers? Hey if I am going to be playing dbd for so long I want to see the very best the game has to offer ^_^ edit: is there really that much of a change in what killers get in addons at a p100 level? what are the communities picks?
-
lets discuss why is it so important to win for some players in dbd?
why not just play the strongest builds if it is that important? why not just use nurse specifically if 4ks are all that is important? sweating to get a 4k every match just leads to harder and harder matches and more mental stress...what is the point? is it ego? gen rushing and getting out of the game in 5 minutes when it…
-
lets discuss survivors taking responsiblity when they are being tunneled
if you get tunneled then make it not worth the killers time to chase you...simple as that. first of all are you running windows of opportunity/off the record/an exhaustion perk or unbreakable/decisive strike? good can you hold w and run to an undesirable structure for the killer to run after you? (killer…
-
lets discuss your favorite post match discussion
I just finished a game on cowshed using a meme trapper build (padded jaws with coffee ground sloppy,stbfl,corrupt, plaything) and got a 3k with a hatch escape...one of the people who died proceeded to message me and tell me that trapper is overpowered. i asked why and he/she said there is no way around trappers traps…
-
lets discuss is the new anti camping buff really going to change the gameplay that much?
I am glad it doesnt work when end game collapse happens (and base kit borrowed time needs to be shut off in endgame collapse as well) but any good killer will just proxy camp far away enough to not allow the meter to build up. I could actually see a rise in make your choice/monstrous shrine on faster killers and…
-
lets discuss are thana and dying light viable perks anymore?
it seems hard to make any viable builds with these two perks (aside maybe a plague build to encourage cleansing) and dont see why these two perks cant be buffed back to their original percentages thana is countered by having at least 1 survivor healed (and should punish hurt survivors but resiliance and prove thyself…
-
lets discuss dbd game problem fixes are usually punishments for killers
it seems more like a stick (for killer) than carrot approach killers face camp then we will give the survivors free unhooks (stick) instead of say grim embrace to incentivize going after the unhooker (carrot) killer tunnels off an unhook then we will give the survivors a tankable hit(stick) instead of say taking away hit…
-
lets discuss skull merchant is good for dbd's health
dbd is a 4 vs 1 team based game correct? skull merchant forces survivors to work as a team to win the game...the team has to coordinate to gen rush effectively(attacking the 3 gens strat immediately to apply pressure) and how to learn to actually loop to take up the killers time (not just predropping pallets and holding…
-
lets discuss why are some bullying aspects still in this game?
for killers hitting survivors on the hook...no purpose but to bully the hooked survivor for survivors being able to tbag the killer...no purpose but to bully the killer (which is made even worse after a sweaty game) no purpose in the game but to antagonize the other person...are their any others i am missing? flashlight…
-
lets discuss dc penalties need to be adjusted to be longer
I play solo queue mostly and tough out unwinable games and also don't lobby dodge as a killer (just a side note before the killer main or survivor main gets thrown in). As for the dc penalties: I am just going off the number of dcs i have encountered in the last two nights and survivors are just giving up at 5 gens with no…
-
lets discuss are any of the licensed killers worth buying for their perks?
deadlock seems like the only remotely playable perk with the new meta? or am i missing a really obvious meta with licensed killer perks? what are the communities thoughts?
-
lets discuss what is the most overrated killer/survivor perk and why?
lightborn? shadowborn? deadlock? for me its lightborn personally since it is so situational to flashlights what are the communities thoughts? edit: changed the title since i only put killer perk before ^_^ for survivor i would say decisive strike/deliverance since they are both very situational
-
lets discuss what quality of life change gets fixed next?
survivors being able to hold a button to bleed out faster after a certain time hooks not breaking when a survivor dies on them survivors keeping a game hostage by hiding in lockers and walking around the map not doing objectives shrine of secrets updating daily farm maps/knights maps being balanced what are your thoughts…
-
lets discuss hex totems and a possible ruin buff for healthier gameplay
Right now it has 100 percent regression and is disabled after a survivor death (along with the nerf of being a hex/cue overzealous boost)...would it be so crazy to keep everything the same but buff it to regress 200 percent(possibly back to 100 if within a 32 meter radius of the killer to prevent gen camping)? It promotes…
-
lets discuss does lethal pursuer outclass corrupt intervention in every way?
i have started to use lethal over corrupt with almost every killer (except trapper/hag) yes i even use it with skull merchant you can start a chase immediately at the start of the round (which is what corrupt does as well but you know exactly where to go) lethal pursuer has better synergy with perks and addons that show…
-
lets discuss
-
lets discuss is the skull merchant going to be buffed?
no this isn't a bait thread...she is still an m1 killer at heart good survivors will run when they are exposed and having a claw trap to reveal their location doesn't really do much in the long run (wow they disarmed it on the other side of the map let me waste time going over there and the take it off before i walk over…
-
lets discuss what are your honest expectations for this next patch?
do you see an increase or decrease on either role? what new addon or perk is going to be complained about? what is going to be seen as an op build? i am excited about playing new builds but see my time as playing killer decreasing after reaching a certain mmr (as survivor will still be a more chill side to play compared to…
-
lets discuss...just some random thoughts/confession and adjusting to this new patch
bhvr thank you for taking our feedback and implementing it into this patch. are we going to be able to put a skull merchant icon on our pic here? i think i found my new main and want to prestige 100 her eventually and feel proud about it. as a warning, legion is pretty bugged so try to steer clear away from using him. are…
-
lets discuss what is considered a fair game by your standards?
for killers is it 12 hooking? no tunneling/camping/slugging? for survivors is it lots of long chases? only large maps? curious to hear your thoughts since i consider pretty much anything goes in this game except for tea bagging since it is only in the game to bully killer players and possibly face camping bubba and can a…
-
lets discuss which killers do you have to use certain perks/addons to make them viable?
with legion i have to use lethal pursuer/enduring/jolt/nowhere to hide and julies mixtape/legion pin with wraith i have to use faster pallet breaking addons at the very least with trapper either trapper sack or iri stone with doc his green addon for shock/distressing it is amazing how much a single addon or perk makes such…
-
lets discuss playing survivor is still going to be ez mode after the new patch
the proposed healing changes doesn't affect your ability to genrush...heck even overzealous is getting a buff and you don't have to waste time healing...i guarantee your matches are going to be much shorter with the new changes and the nerfing of gen regression perks on the killer side. slap on a…
-
lets discuss how to make a 12 hook game feasible?
survivors wanting fun games(as well as killers) usually state that chases are the most fun part of the game. so what are your thoughts on how we can balance the game so that killers don't lose gens quickly during chases and make it fun for survivors so that multiple hooks are feasible? would making pain res (at 15 percent)…
-
lets discuss which killers will thrive with the new patch and why?
nurse/blight/spirit are still in a good place (with the new dead hard nerf) as is plague since medkits don't affect her as much. high mobility hit and run killers (legion/wraith) should be ok even with the new circle of healing "nerf" i feel hag got hurt the worst (new way to get rid of her traps/no mobility to stop coh…
-
lets discuss
-
are any of the maps in this game actually balanced for killer players?
almost all of the maps in this game are oversaturated with safe loops(all 3 farm maps/knights map/the game) or are big maps sizes(red forest/springwood/macmillan/crotos)...i feel the only one that actually benefits killers is dead dawg and even that has a busted building I get excited when the devs say map rework and then…
-
lets discuss things that are unbelieveably still not addressed in dbd
edit: there is no way you will ever see a 3 or 4 man haste effect with the skull merchant ever(since skull traps destroy themselves after a timer...you at most get 2 people at a time) edit: it is as rare as getting full value out of thanataphobia (if not plague/or legion and legion is questionable without legion pin) edit:…
-
lets discuss what are the reasons veteran players leave dbd and is there a way to retain them?
be it mmr/unfair perks/game issues etc. what are your thoughts? I feel it is important to retain those veteran players because with backfill lobbies/mmr those high end groups will be placed with mid mmr killers who are not going to be able to handle them. i also don't want default survivors learning how to throw pallets to…
-
lets discuss why is it ok for 2010 freddy krueger to be in dead by daylight?
i have no problem with the original freddy krueger but it is insulting and disrespectful that the 2010 freddy krueger is in this game especially considering his lore. it feels like it is a line that is to far that was crossed. just why?
-
lets discuss what are the best sloppy butcher builds for each killer?
just getting ahead of the new update curve with doc i am thinking sloppy/distressing/coul/nurses calling will be decent not sure what addons to run with it your thoughts? help me out with some builds ^_^
-
lets discuss the new player experience/why people play killer when survivor is so much easier?
friend of mine decided to buy dbd on xbox for 15 dollars as it was on sale says she wants to try killer(100% bonus) after spending bloodpoints on trapper(bloodpoints from the tutorial). she picks trapper with jolt brutal strength noed and agitation (the only decent lv2 perks the bloodweb was not kind). queues up 4…
-
lets discuss p100 players and skilled matchmaking
first of all, congrats for putting that much time and effort into prestiging your character to the max. don't hide them in the lobbies (as that is disingenuous) with another character with basic clothes at prestige 1. If you want fair matchmaking, don't make the killer dodge when they see the change. you will have a better…

blah blah
-
lets discuss rest in peace old skull merchant and who is next?
ah skull merchant the standard for (mostly) stress free m1 killers your rework came from so many complaints. You were the chosen killer vs bully squads now killers can go back to the nurse/blight/spirit/pig My question is who is next? Which killer as a community can we get changed and how do we change them? trapper dont…
-
lets discuss which character do you gravitate to using in dbd and why?
on the killer side i started as a trapper main because i liked big brain plays. this changed into wraith/legion/doc/blight afterwards because i liked chase builds. recently i have become more of a blight/plague/legion with a lot of knight because it is a more chill experience where i feel more in control. on the survivor…
-
lets discuss why are people dodging lobbies?
You might find easier matches doing so for now but that doesn't fix the game in the long run...let bhvr collect their data so the game can get balanced. have you no empathy for that poor new killer who has just 10 hours in the game and gets thrown into that swf group with more than 5000 hours between them? it is getting to…
-
lets discuss lobby dodging why is it only the killer's fault and not of equal blame to all players?
edit: i personally don't lobby dodge just want your thoughts i was recently talking to my cousin who plays in a swf (with 4 bills of the same cosmetic and4 of the same item depending on if they want chases/sabo/bodyblocks ) and is a p100 himself. killers lobby dodge his group and he doesn't care since when a killer finally…
-
why are backfill lobbies still a thing?
why are we punished with teams way above or below our skill level? i will gladly wait 5 to 10 minutes for a match with equally skilled players instead of being fed to a p50 to p100 swf group already queued up. i am already annoyed that my mmr doesnt deteriorate after having 4 teams back to back yesterday night i played…
-
lets discuss skull merchant/knight 3 gens are not hard to counter just adapt
remember they dont have the lethality of a nurse...they are m1 killers at heart after playing most of the weekend against a variation of skull merchants and knights the way to beat the 3 gen situation is quite similar 1) use a good toolbox with bnp and prove thyself/tenacity/sprint burst/deja vu (hyperfocus if you are good…
-
lets discuss where do players go to improve and learn new builds/techs?
just wanted to get some info from the community for the whole player base. i know there are forums and twitch players but i dont frequent them enough to share my knowledge. Youtube on the other hand ^_^ the most well known streamers (otz, tru3, dowsey, scott jund, potatolegion, ohtofu, jrm) are common knowledge but are…
-
lets discuss Is the skull merchant the most versatile killer in the game?
I am having a blast trying out new combinations all hex totem builds, impossible skill check builds with her yellow addon (no skill check warning),franklins demise item guarding builds (redsgaming has a great video his site with this build), stealth builds (chaining drones together to sneak up on survivors tinkerer style),…
-
lets discuss using the skull merchant rework for other lower tier trap killers
when the merchants drones get hacked she gets a haste bonus so why not do the same for the trapper/hag/sadako? i have seen countless games where one survivor stops the killers power(disarming traps left by the trapper, running around when carrying a survivor to the hook/flashlighting the traps with hag, turning off all the…
-
lets discuss closing the gap between solos and swf is talked about but what about killers?
the new hud helps survivors to relay information and help to traverse the skill gap but what about the gap between lower tier killers and higher tier killers? what is going to be done so that every killer is indeed viable? would higher tier killers like nurse be actually nerfed? say make her matchstick iridescent addon the…
-
lets discuss the skull merchants new changes in the upcoming dev patch
it feels like a very healthy overall change...now chase builds will be better since the brown addon to break pallets will be base kit and the added haste effect will make it easier to mind game loops(more of a wraith/legion chase). I welcome the new vroomy mami haha as well now one survivor cant go around disarming all the…
-
lets discuss what survivor perks do you use in the current meta?
i use a jack of all trades build with one exhaustion perk(usually sprint burst), one terror radius reading perk for killer(tenacity, spinechill, fogwise) , a utility perk (prove thyself or built to last if i am using a medkit or circle of healing/flashbang if i am using a different tool), and windows of opportunity(to…
-
lets discuss we asked for a new killer and we got the skull merchant
thank you bhvr sincerely...you took a chance and gave us what we gave you feedback on rememeber when we asked for less antiloop killers? remember when we asked for less range killers? rememeber when we asked for another trap based killer (might just be me)? you got it the devs listened and provided a unique killer...and…
-
should solo survivors receive an early beginning buff?
the new survivor hud was a way to bridge the gap between solo and swf but solos are still doing badly overall. why not give beginning solo survivors a buff early on faster running speed, gen repair speed, or aura reads where their fellow survivors are located for the first 60 seconds of the match? All 4 survivors must have…
-
lets discuss do you use any terminology from dbd in your life?
i like using skill issue instead of saying that was a fail lol would love to hear if anyone else uses any terms from the game
