Lich v Dark Lord Power Discrepancy
Simply put: why does the Lich (aka Vecna) have a cooldown at the start of the match before he can use his powers but the Dark Lord (aka Dracula) doesn't for his? They have similar effects, and Dracula's are arguably more powerful, but one Killer can use their abilities immediately and the other can't. I wonder whether…

Possible Exploit on Haddonfield Maps
On some iterations of the Haddonfield map group it is possible for Survivors (possibly Killers as well) to get stuck on top of a hook if they fall off of one the open rooftops from the main building. As far as I can tell this can mainly be used to become untargetable by most Killer abilities or to hide. It was used against…

People who bring map offerings to Chaos Shuffle:
Who hurt you? If you wanted to play a randomising game mode, why are you trying to remove the randomness? If you're scared of not having control over everything in the game, maybe you shouldn't play a game mode like this.

Vibe Check on Resilience?
I'm seeing this perk on at least one Survivor in pretty much all of my games. If I'm not playing a very oppressive killer, gens go by scarily fast, especially since regression perks have been nerfed, and after the event everyone seems to have a million Commodious Toolboxes with Brand New Parts. What's more, Resilience can…

Please give The Knight some love
I love the concept of the Knight. A strategic Killer who can multitask and manipulate Survivors while looking awesome to boot. However, the reality of The Knight does not live up to the fantasy. His power is incredibly buggy and difficult to make work in so many places, especially on crowded maps or tight loops, and even…

Colourblindness and Coldwind Farm
I'm colourblind, but a lot of the time it's not really an issue in DBD like it might be in some other games once I put colourblind settings on. The only exception is when I struggle to make out scratch marks and auras compared to the ground textures and corn colours on Coldwind Farm maps. This has actually caused me…

Survivors with high Prestige and low hours, what's your secret?
I'm seeing increasing numbers of survivors with really high prestige numbers in my lobbies, but when I check their hours (when I can, I can only check some console players), they often have very few hours, sometimes less than me. It's not that they only level that one Survivor, since they run the full gamut of perks. Even…

Clown Still Bugged
Clown is still bugged where his bottle switches in midair if you change bottle type, and the marker to tell you which type of bottle you're using is still gone. I also assume the camera glitch is still present but I didn't see that when I was playing.

Hating Mastermind: what other unpopular DBD opinions are there?
Normally you can tell pretty quickly that a certain playstyle doesn't gel with you, but for some reason it's taken me this long (basically a whole year of playing him on and off) to realise that The Mastermind has no redeeming qualities for me. It just clicked in the middle of a game as him: I hate how his power feels, I…

Timeline on fixing Clown bugs
Is there an ETA on when there might be a fix for the two Clown bugs– the one that prevents the Killer from seeing which of his Afterpiece bottles are being used and the bug which causes the type of bottle to be switched mid-toss? Thanks :)

No grand ideas, just need to vent
Just had my 3rd match in a row tonight where I got placed against extremely high Prestige Survivors in really coordinated groups and got destroyed. And all that after a massive loss streak yesterday trying to improve my Singularity play. I've messaged a few Survivors afterwards and they had at least double my hours in the…

Singularity sucks to play as so badly
I know that in theory he can be very strong. But having the terms of your power dictated by Survivors is awful and makes him feel incredibly frustrating and unfun to play. The steps required to use his power effectively are not only almost unfeasibly complex at times, but also extremely vulnerable to very simple Survivor…

Made for This has got to change
This is personal. I don't like being gaslit by a perk. I don't like not being certain why some hits don't connect when they would have normally, and having to consider whether it's latency, cheating or this perk. I don't understand why being injured in DBD should be a condition that makes you better at everything than an…

Another day, another Twins bug
(PS5) Yet again Twins is fatally bugged. I unbound Victor to chase Survivors on Toba Landing, near the threshold of the main building (see image) that connects to the upper floor, and could not move, charge my pounce, or swap back to Charlotte. Unlike a previous bug I've experienced with Twins, the UI remained visible and…

Do you ever just stop chasing Survivors because you know you'll never catch up to any of them?
I've just been having some of the worst matches of my life recently. I chase Survivors but somehow I never catch up to them before they reach a really safe window or worse a pallet. I either have to spend 5 minutes trying to mind-game them and they predrop the pallet anyway, or just brute force it and accept I'm getting…

Skull Merchant: Problems, Solutions and Questions?
A large amount of traffic on this forum (particularly in General Discussion) seems to be jeremiads about how bad Skull Merchant is, and how the devs should killswitch her to rework her or just straight-up remove her from the game (neither of which is going to happen). I like the idea of her playstyle as a tactical, set-up…

Seeking Advice: Making Oni Less Painful on Console?
Basically the title. I love the idea of Oni as a killer, but he's unwieldy, awkward and so easily outmanoeuvred when you're not playing with M+K. All of the things that make him challenging as a killer make him horrible for me on console. The 'aim assist' you get when Demon Striking near a survivor seems to make me miss…

Red Forest, or Why did BHVR Have to Make a Difficult Map Worse?
Something of a vent post really. Red Forest (particularly Mother's Dwelling) was generally agreed to be one of the worst– if not the worst– map domains in DBD for Killer. Far too big, an very unforgiving main building and tons of safe loops. Since I don't play S tier killers frequently I struggled a lot with this map,…

The 'Did You Have Fun?' meter on the Postgame screen
Does this do anything? Does indicating that I did not, in fact, have fun as Myers on Cowshed against a 4-stack SWF who made me wait until the end of EGC to leave and teabagged at the gates register anywhere and possibly influence future BHVR policy with regards to how to make their game fun? Or is it just a placebo effect?

Can a Survivor self-unhook after the Entity Summoned points event?
Trying to determine whether a survivor in my game was cheating or just insanely lucky. Endgame Collapse, 2 survivors dead, 2 never hooked. I catch one and hook them before other survivor leaves. They still get to attempt to unhook because they were hooked before last standing survivor left, no problem. They make a couple…

RPD and Dredge
The RPD maps are almost unplayable as Dredge. There are massive swathes of both maps where there are simply no lockers. What lockers there are are often tightly bunched together or centred around hooks, making Reign of Darkness practically useless. I know that RPD is pretty survivor-sided in most scenarios anyway, but to…
