The "rat debate" in DBD
I feel like the changes to Wake Up have awakened some of the debate around players who hide a lot during the match, which in turn leads to their teammates getting killed off sooner. Personally, I just never had any talent for stealth in this game. It feels like the killer is always five steps away from me and I can't even…

Dead By Daylight War Mode
So I had an idea of a mode that would heighten the chaos of DBD by letting both sides be extremely powerful. It's a 1v4 where there's six generators to be repaired. But everyone in the trial gets to use eight perks each. So it's double the power and unpredictability, making survivors somewhat near as powerful as killers…

Three things that would help fix DBD
Add other objectives to DBD a long with doing generators. And give players enough BP to allow them to progress in the game a little, even if they don't escape or the survivors do gens super fast. I don't care whether it's finding herbs, collecting cursed spirit orbs, kicking deranged entity sculptures, collecting fungi,…

It would be fun to combine two different oc killers into one killer to make the "ultimate predator"
I think it would be interesting to do an event that is like "killer fusion" where two original killers are combined to make a new killer, but with some form of both abilities. Or perhaps a new ability that is some kind of combination. For instance, Nurse/Huntress would have nurse's blink and huntress hatchets. The…

The only way to combat "go nexts" is to turn dead teammates into ghosts
I've been giving it a lot of thought and I think the only thing that's going to cut down the whole "killing ones self on hook to go to another game" is to make it so that when someone dies, they become a ghost and are still in the trial. To make it to where you're butt doesn't leave the game until the trial is over, so…

Having some major issues getting kicked from the game on ps4
In the past couple of days, I've been having problems getting booted from games due to either the server crashing or I get a "must be connected to Internet to play" message. But the thing is that my internet is fine. I've done the internal checks on my PS4 and my connection appears to be solid. I also play other online…

Truly hoping custom matches get bp and challenges in 2025
The main thing I hope for in the new year is getting to play as killer in custom matches and at least getting some BP or being able to complete challenges. Heck, I would be happy with just challenges alone for that matter. Sometimes, I just want to try out killers and perks and do some challenges without getting curb…

Which of these characters do you want most in DBD?
Wanted to make a poll of the top characters I would love to see in DBD. Feel free to share your own.

I wish Dead By Daylight had more official merchandise
My brother brought up a good point as we were unwrapping gifts today. He said he had tried to find me some actual DBD merchandise, but it was hard to find. I know there are a few things, but the majority of stuff that's out there is bootleg or things artists make. It's not official stuff. And it's not in places like Hot…

Killers and survivors you would like to see in DBD
I think my two top survivors to add would be Elvira and Buffy. I feel a tad bit more hope about Elvira after seeing her appearance in the Killer Clowns game. And Buffy really is the ultimate survivor. I think it would also be cool if we could get some legendary skins for her that are other Buffy characters--Willow, Giles,…

Which survivor getting tunneled most?
Killers, you see these four survivors in your lobby. Be honest, who really, really, really ain't making it out of that game alive? Who you going for first?

Hex: Trading Places (HUD switching hex)
I think it would be interesting if there was a hex that gives the killer the survivors HUD, and gave the survivors the limited information on the killer's HUD. This way, the killer can see who sits on gens, who's on death hook, doing a totem, etc. Meanwhile, the survivors are deprived of using the HUD to gauge what plays…
-
Lore pages or other items hidden in maps
I think it would be a cool feature if there were things hidden in maps for killers and survivors to find. And finding these objects gave the player something like extra bp or rift progress. This way, even if a team or a killer isn't doing very well, they can still wander around the map and "find Easter eggs" and still feel…

Dead By Daylight Story Mode
Okay, hear me out. What if, along with the rift, there was some kind of monthly or bi monthly story element to DBD. Every player (both killer and survivor) gets to see cutscenes that revolve around a story centered in the Dead By Daylight universe. But you have to achieve a certain amount of rift progress to unlock the…

I wish that Venom The Last Dance wasn't so depressing
I watched the newest Venom movie and I have to admit that, for me, it really lacked the magic of the first two films. I don't want to give away any spoilers, but both the title and the trailers make the sadness of the film pretty obvious. But I think they kind of went a bit overboard with it. It was a film with very little…

DBD event ideas
I think it would be fun if DBD had an event called Deception where a killer had the ability to take the form of one of the survivors. Perhaps you could even change between the different ones, so you could pick the most effective time to turn into each survivor. As an added bonus, turning into that survivor also let's you…

Tips for new Dead By Daylight survivors
I wanted to start out by saying that, in the end, there are really three different versions of Dead By Daylight, there's swf DBD, there solo DBD, and there's potato DBD. And each version has its own things going on and what you can and can't get away with. And you have to learn how to identify which version you're in and…

My tips for playing against Pinhead in solo q
I know that a lot of survivors, especially those in solo q, feel like giving up when they find out they're playing against Pinhead. They fear that no one will solve the box and it will be endless chain hunts all around. So, as someone who plays Pinhead often, I wanted to share some advice in how to best deal with his main…

Dead By Daylight confessions
My DBD confession is that, if the final gen pops and it turns out to be NOED, I'm on that exit door and my ass is gone. I'm gonna leave all the NOED heroics to the swfs who are all on coms communicating about where the killer is, where the totem is, who's gonna hook trade and hang around to unhook, etc. I don't have any of…

Some sequels need to take a break for a while
I'm not saying that all sequels are shameless money grabs, and there haven't been any good one's ever, but there sure as hell seems to be more stinkers riding the coattails of nostalgia than there needs to be.

A visual heartbeat style mechanic for killers (or longer visual notifications)
As someone who struggles to hear things in game, I always play survivor with the visual heartbeat. When I play killer, however, I have to use spies from the shadows since I can't track survivors through being able to hear them, or generators being worked on really. By the time I can register there's been a sound…

Satisfying moments in DBD
I had a solo q game where a Jake tried to become "best buds" with a Wesker. He was sandbagging the whole game and forcing us to do a 3vs1 from the start. (Including taunting people on hook) As soon as the Wesker had the game in the bag, he knocked down and hooked the sandbagging Jake. The dude immediately gave up and died…

What do you think would improve the Dead By Daylight experience?
What I believe one thing that would vastly improve the Dead By Daylight experience would be to able to go into a custom game and play against bots AND actually get bp and XP for doing so. Hear me out. If you could get the rewards of playing the game and completely bypass the toxic nonsense, the terrible teammates, the…

The downward spiral of DBD
I don't think some people quite understand that a ton of people adopting the meanest, nastiest attitudes in a fandom are the cancer that eats a fandom up. It takes something that should be enjoyable and fun, and turns it into a toxic energy drain that people walk away from. And know some of you are already going "Well,…

How to deal with teammates who swarm killer and hook all game
I was playing solo q against a ghostface. I'm pretty sure that the other three players were part of a swf, because they literally never left one anothers side the entire game. Literally within minutes of the game starting, ghostface had downed one of them, and at this point the other two players followed him the entire way…
