is it me or is the 2v1 situation getting insufferable?
lately, the absolute worst games of dbd have been games that end up in a 2v1 situation. after two survivors are dead, and you have two survivors alive with a killer. all three people in this situation want to win, so what is the best option for each? for the survivors, it's to wait for your teammate to die. for the killer,…

the knight's new bug and why it could be a feature
so, for those not in the know, the knight just got killswitched. this video explains why very succinctly: thanks to DStrike for this video. what i'd like to talk about is how this bug could actually be a cool feature for the knight with some small tweaks, and could make this killer a lot more interesting to play as and…

cosmetic descriptions are kind of boring now :/
so... this is a criticism my friend pointed out, and i agree with it. cosmetic descriptions for the last while have been terrible. they've been like, "he wore a hat". literally the description of jake's new hat is "he put a feather in a hat". compare with another one of his items, the wild suit jacket. "Custom-made suit,…

EMPs in-hand need to be accounted for
while playing as the singularity it's not uncommon for my biopod to be emp'd, i destroy and replace it, infect the survivor, they emp themselves and the new biopod, i destroy and replace it, and they grab a new EMP. i feel like i'm constantly fighting uphill just to infect survivors. i think that if a survivor takes an EMP…

bloodweb item/offering distribution
i have a few issues with the way the bloodweb distributes items that are coalescing into like... one big frustration. my survivors never get maps or keys. i always get medkits and toolboxes. because there's so many of them, and only three keys and two maps. i'd really like to see more maps and keys in the loot pool, and…

stop trying to make overheat happen, gretchen wieners
i'm so flustered by these billy changes that i just want to cut to the chase here. if you deleted overheat from the game and then made every addon that activates on overheat instead apply a status to survivors that you hit, then made the speed you're removing from engravings basekit, billy would legitimately be a killer…

Bond does not reveal allies' auras in all cases.
platform: PC description of the issue: when playing against a killer using the perk Knock Out, the normal dying aura is obscured beyond a certain range. however, while using the perk Empathy, you can still see a dying survivor's aura highlighted in yellow, not in red. Empathy says, "the auras of survivors in the injured or…

hey devs, why do you guys keep doing this?
you take a perk that needs some help, buff it too much, and then nerf it beyond where it was when it started. this has happened to thana, and now it's happening to eruption. why? why make eruption worse than the version of it that you yourselves already decided was too weak, and buffed? what is wrong with moving eruption…

a case for bringing back bonus BP perks.
since the removal of the BP bonus on bbq, among other things, a lot of killers are no longer feeling incentivised to not tunnel and not camp. the quality of games in the wake of this has noticeably deteriorated, as i'm sure that everyone has complained vigorously about. i think that, genuinely, the best way to combat this…
-
i never get survivor rituals
can you guys please make it so that the ritual has a 50/50 shot of choosing survivor or killer first, and then randomly select what the daily actually is? because honestly, like. i do not think i have literally ever seen a daily ritual for survivor, in all my time playing, ever. and i want some. :(

finishing mori changes & bleedout timer
if survivors can pick themselves up after 45 - 15 seconds (based on perks) then i feel the bleedout timer no longer has any reason to be 4 minutes long. survivors already have so many ways to say "you can't pick me up". sabotaged hooks, decisive strike and flashlights can do a lot to prevent a killer from picking up. if,…

accessibility setting for Plague
hi dbd team! my boyfriend has extreme emetophobia. being infected by plague makes him feel physically ill to the point he can't play the game. he really likes playing DbD otherwise, but any time he plays against plague he has to: a) turn the sound off so he can't hear the sound of her vomiting because it makes him throw up…

If Wiretap & Open Handed won't stack...
then please make the exclusion clear in the description of Wiretap this isn't about whether they should or shouldn't stack. all i'm saying is that any time there is a perk that is an exception, it should be in the description of the perk, just so that it's obvious and clear. "The aura reading range of Wiretap cannot be…

could matches contain 8 generators instead of 7?
just getting a little tired of 3 gens with the new changes. feels like killers are more capable than ever of patrolling 3 gens while kicking constantly (all the kick perks got a huge buff, basically) plus they take longer to fix, plus the nerfs to chase makes it hard to really deal with a 3 gen any more against any killer…

Attack on Game Tone
this is going to be a very difficult topic for some people to read. for others, it's going to be very easy. that said, i feel like i really want to start talking about this before it gets to a point of being unbearable. one game i used to really like was team fortress 2. and then they added hats, which was super fine. the…

can we get some more L4D characters?
i mean. valve will basically allow you to do whatever you want, right? they seem really relaxed as far as crossover content goes (given the period of time where literally everything had either a tf2 crossover or a l4d crossover, like DBD for example). let's see Rochelle or Francis in the game, i think they'd be a lot of…

i can't find my perks! please just make them alphabetical!
i don't care what tier they are! i really don't! and it's not like i can voluntarily equip lower tier levels of perks, so PLEASE, they're all in different places on all my characters and I AM LIVING IN HELL. please make them alphabetical, i don't care about tier, i am on my knees. praying and begging and crying. i am…

bit disappointed with Hooked On You
i do get that you guys have made this based on, like... popular demand. that you sexed up the killers a bit and made 'em hotter, and then made a dating sim where you can date them. but like... do you really have to berate me so much for being into trapper? i like bigger men. i think they're really hot. confidence is a huge…

does pain resonance and dead man's have to be changed because of merciless storm?
okay, so. pain resonance allowed merciless storm to continue proccing for "40 skill checks" under the right circumstances. and? question one: does that need to change? sometimes things go bad for the survivors all at once, and that's okay. sorry that this can happen, but at the same time, dramatic moments like this can…

it's just not fun any more.
i just tried to get adept sadako and got lobby after lobby of survivors bringing the strongest possible perks, playing as hard as they possibly could, and being nasty in the chat afterwards. so i switched, equipped a bunch of strong perks including devour hope, stomped the hell out of the lobby i was in, and noone said…

PC - Killer locker grabbed out of sync and got stuck
Survivor: Jonah Perks: Lithe, Windows of Opportunity, Borrowed Time, Boon: Circle of Healing Killer: Bubba Map: Azarov's Frequency: Just happened once, but it basically ended the game, so I'm gonna report it anyway :/ Steps to recreate: Just have the killer grab you on the same frame you try to enter the locker, and the…

hey so about that prime promotion
quick question can i not see or redeem it because i live outside of the US? or is there another thing preventing me from being able to see and redeem it? edit: 👀 seent it turns out you have to scroll down for a mile and also can't search the word "dead" because the prime site sucks

left behind is creating a bad play environment
i am tired of teammates whose entire plan from the start is to let us all die so that they can get hatch using left behind to find it i'm tired of it this isn't fun it's not fun to have a perk that actively encourages throwing left behind should only activate after the gates are powered, or should just be an entirely new…

would anyone care if there were no more crossovers if it meant no more NFTs / license endings?
honestly, like. the stranger things license ending is just, frankly, ridiculous. NFTs are completely intolerable for anyone who cares about the environment. (this is not an NFT debate thread). does bhvr think we really just hate the original content that much? last i checked, we love the original killers & survivors. most…

More map offerings for killers.
let's just be honest. 4 survivors. 4 players, 4 bloodwebs, 4x as many map offerings, and they only need to use one to get the map they want. killers, in their bloodwebs, should get 4 map offerings per map offering node, instead of just 1. let killers offer map offerings just as frequently as the survivors can. it's…

what survivor perks do you have... in real life?
which survivor perks from dead by daylight are true to your abilities in real life? for me it's probably iron will - i don't vocalise when injured. several piercings done and not a peep the whole time alert - weirdly, i can tell when the front door of the house gets opened because of the way the air pressure moves. anyone…

devotion to the unseen challenge tip
i just did this challenge as t1 myers. you don't have to actually become undetectable from the perk, you just have to be undetectable and hit someone. probably also works as ghostface. just thought i'd make a post about it, maybe people didn't know. or maybe everyone knew and i'm late to the party lol

stop posting 1v1 cowshed videos and saying "look how survivor sided this is"
1v1 cowshed is a meme and it's not indicative of a real game situation. chase starts in shack, not at a generator every pallet in the game is up and ready to go survivor gets a clear warning and headstart no perks noone else to chase no setup time for the killer no killer power no reason to drop the chase no real decision…

just picked up trapper. any tips?
having a lot of fun with this dude. i was having fun with plague but i got kinda bored, so i'm gonna play trapper for a little while. so far, basically, i've found that trapping the basement is super effective. but it's getting old kinda quick, even though most times in the postgame chat has a good laugh about it. i'm…

so that rank reset bug...
being reset from k8 to k19 made me feel terrible, but then i started being given... you know, r20 survivors in matchmaking and besides the occasional higher rank person who insults me for being rank 19 (which i report because, y'know, that's ugly) i'm actually having a grand old time going easy on people and having them…
