[v8.0.0-8.4.1 (PC)] Demogorgon's portal emergence is not truly silent with Red Moss
hi! sorry if this is not the appropriate place to put this. i figured that i should make this a known issue (or at least ask whether or not this is intentional design) since it nullifies a portion of an add-on. with the red moss add-on, it's specified that 'emerging from a portal is completely silent'. however, this is not…

What is our end-of-year verdict about the game, BHVR, and general criticisms? (2024)
hi gang :] i'm back with yet another thread because i enjoy reading people's responses and picking brains, as well as writing college thesis-length posts as we all know, dead by daylight has seen some significant changes this year. between new chapter additions, to adjustments to reworks, to more community engagement from…

Power Struggle placed on a short cool down after a successful stun
hi! first game-related suggestion i'm making but i wonder if power struggle may ever get glanced at for a little bit of a tweak. i personally dont have an issue with this perk, but i did notice that on maps like 'the game' this perk can protect a survivor a little too much after they get downed in a pallet dense map.…

do finisher mories give you more or less bloodpoints than normally hooking a survivor?
i'm asking because i never used this feature before and i'm too lazy to find out xd

how do we feel about all these balance recommendation posts on these forums?
this is a general question i have for the forum community purely out of interest. i noticed that there's a very large set of individuals on these forums that suggest all sorts of different changes and recommendations, primarily paired with strong opinions about their vision of the game. it made me wonder how we as players…

an interesting set of questions i just thought about
i was scrolling through the forums today and saw that the general topic of "balance" seems to be the one big thing that's usually discussed whenever i log in, and it got me thinking about the state of the game and how the developers have been slowly gravitating towards the point of achieving a neutral point for both sides.…

good morning, community!

reminder to take a break if needed
seeing an influx of frustration today. if you find yourself stressed out from dead by daylight, the game is not as fun for you anymore, you're feeling negative about the people around you, or you feel like your time is being spent in a way that doesnt make you feel satisfied, i suggest you take a break! heres of list of…

optimization of DBD's code
is there any idea for when DBD will get a facelift? CPU usage seems a little high nowadays with all these new things that are getting added to the game, even for more powerful processors!
-
changes to the forums!
title basically says it all! i think it would be a nice QOL to be able to properly customize our profiles so we could share more about ourselves rather than having to rely on the activities section to update our statuses. this is more personal for me, but i would also love to be able to receive notifications about…

hi! make sure you do something good for yourself or someone else! organize your information, give water to a plant, give canned goods to a charity, pet a cat! if you're winding down for the day, sit down and play some dbd with a friend, watch a favorite streamer, participate in one of your beloved communities, or just hang…

how is everyone doing today?
did you do anything fun? did something funny happen to you in-game? i encourage you to share, i feel like the positivity is needed today after the sad news of a beloved member's passing
-
reminder to have some fun and try something new today!
if you're feeling bored or tired, try to be innovative! come up with a new playstyle, invite a friend who's never played DBD before and spend some time teaching them some stuff, shoot for hitting as many great skillchecks as possible, try not to go down at all in chases, practice 1v1'ing survivors as killer, catch up with…

this community needs a little bit of a face lift, people too
and i'm not necessarily talking about just in appearance, i'm just talking about us as people with this silly little game we all like to play. how we handle each other, what we find joy in, how we express our opinions, and how we overall live our lives beyond these screens ive come to realize over the course of a couple of…

people are cool
a troll is running around on here and spewing hate so i just wanted to hop on real quick and say you guys are awesome and make my day you deserve the right to live and be who you wanna be, and you deserve to participate in things life has to offer as a good person happy pride month for those who are in the LGBTQ+ community…

Do you think White Wards are still serving their purpose?
i had a little bit of an epiphany as i was playing the game today. because of current add-on/item retention as well as the frequency of which a survivor can easily collect items because of the new bloodweb features, refill their items in match, etc., i wondered if there's still a reason for the offering to exist? if it…

community maps/custom content and map variants!
hi im back on the forums again lately ive been thinking really hard about ways that i feel the community could be refreshed and i settled upon the idea of custom maps or community maps! i realized that dead by daylight doesn't exactly give as many options for the community to fully interact with the game creatively outside…

i'm not understanding the excessive level of negativity within and outside of dead by daylight
hi im back to rambling again but i've noticed that ever since maybe around... 4-5 years ago or so, the environment in community platforms surrounding dbd as well as the game itself have been becoming less and less positive people are just generally unhappy and tend to treat the game and its content like its a chore or an…

Is there an uptick in repeating maps?
I'm just curious to know because I've gotten the swamp maps at least 6 times in a row now as demogorgon 😅 its getting a little old

Dead By Daylight's playtime retention is admirable, as well as other things about it
hi i have the tendency to ramble on these forums a lot, so im not expecting anybody to read, but i just wanted to kinda dump my thoughts on dead by daylight's playtime retention and replay-ability before i head off to a dentist appointment. x) it's very interesting to see how such a simple game can manage to be played time…

How difficult is it to translate the Demogorgon's playstyle to the Dredge and Hag?
Hi! I just wanted to ask this question because I was curious about what you all might think of this. I've been a Demo main since their PTB days, so a lot of my muscle memory is with them instead of other killers. I noticed that the Dredge and Hag share a similar playstyle at the base, but branch off when it comes to…
-
Is there any chance for the phantom hits at pallet to be addressed?
I understand why its in place, but when using Demogorgon's shred on a survivor that drops a pallet right before you hit them, you still end up "hitting" them but get stunned or break the pallet, and it gets very confusing. This goes for m1's too for most killers, its just overall kind of annoying in the end, especially…
-
Does anyone else miss the old Freddy?
maybe it's just me feeling nostalgia or something, idk but i really miss old freddy's kit, both playing as and against him. it was fun trying to guess where he was coming from and having to try and figure out a game plan early on, especially based on the builds you make with your perks that can either make the game easier…

Any tips for trapper?
Hi! So I recently started playing more Trapper to try and get away from sticking with the Demogorgon (after playing it for about 2 years straight), and I wanted to ask the community for any tips with the usage of traps? My traps work only about 40% of the time, and I typically try to place them in ways that survivors least…

Is there any discussion about the modders in this game? Any plans to take action?
this is just a question that i've had raised for many months now. ever since a few months ago, there's been a massive influx of modders coming into lobbies and ruining the game experience for everybody, both killer and survivor. games either involve the generators flying by and exit gates randomly being opened, or more…

Self-care, a thread
and no, i'm not talking about the perk. x) this is just a thread to remind us that it's important to focus on ourselves and our well-being, for the sake of others, and for the sake of just who we are. did you drink and eat today? are you getting enough sleep? are you taking care of yourself, your hygiene? are you making…

Exactly how efficient is the reporting system?
this is just a question towards those who've used it before! i, unfortunately, encountered a second game that involved people insta-popping gens at the start of the match, but i wasn't able to record the in-game footage or take a screenshot because it all happened so fast, so i can't provide any visual evidence, and i'm…

Glitched challenges and The Blight
hi i made another thread. whoops i've been hearing that bugged challenges are all over the place for this rift. oddly enough, i think blight's challenges are bugged too! i'm wondering if anyone else is having issues with this one. i recently bought blight with shards about a day ago, just so i can start working away at the…
