New licensed killer idea - The Terrifier
I just finished watching The Terrifier with my boyfriend tonight. Great horror movie, 8/10, would recommend. Watching it gave us a great idea for a new killer - The Terrifier! The spooky clown guy who murders everyone and cannot die. It was great and surprisingly did not totally rely on jumpscares to be scary. The clown's…

The Ranking System is Broken
Assuming that most of these arent SWF, the ranking system is definitely broken. Playing killer, it's frustrating to see survivors who are much higher rank than me playing against me. I don't know how these people get matched to me but I really think it should be fixed. This was one of my games (I was killer, aka the rank…

Relating to the survivors in a personal way
Not often do I think about writing a forum post like this, but i've been thinking about it for a little while actually. One thing I love about this game is the diversity of it's characters. Especially with the new chapter. But my actual favourite survivor is Jane. And no, it's not just because of umm... the dump truck. I…

So DCing isn't okay but hook suicide is?
You say the DC rate has gone down 35% now. That's great, except the fact that it didn't get rid of people leaving early for no reason and ruining the game for everyone else. I just played a match (solo) that had an obvious two-man swf (matching usernames). The swf decided to hook suicide because apparently the other solo…

I had jeff, and then I didn't
A few days ago I noticed that I had Jeff unlocked, which was weird because I didn't remember buying him. Whatever, might as well level him up to get his perks. I probably sunk a good 1mil bloodpoints into his web (got him to level 32, it even says that when I mouse over his locked character portrait), and then the next day…

Decisive Strike not activating after succeeding skillcheck
Platform: PC Issue: I was playing as survivor on an autohaven map, against The Legion. The killer picked me up and the skillcheck for DS appeared and I completed it, but it did not work and the killer kept walking with me and hooked me. It just happened to me. I was playing Jane.

"Sorry, there was an error loading your match"
it's almost as if the game knew this type of matchmaking isnt okay.

Depipping against AFK killers
This should NOT being a thing. I can't believe the game still allows this to happen at no fault of the survivors. I just played against an AFK wraith. Yenno, the kind that stands still, cloaked, unmoving the entire game. Every survivor in my game (including me) lost a pip/rank. Why? Because we got no boldness points and…

The one flaw with Pig's RBT
I watched Noob3's video on when the Pig came out, and how he was excited to learn that the RBT kills a survivor if they try to leave with an active trap on their head. I thought I would try to force someone into this situation today. I guess my luck was just against me because I let a David go with an active trap on him,…

Unpopular Opinion
Since the Ruin change, NOED has become part of the killer meta now, whether people like it or not. I never used to use it but I have to now since there is no early game slowdown anymore. Since it has become part of the meta, I think that survivors should not be allowed to harrass killers who use it. Saying "get good" is…

New problem: hook suicide
After DC penalties (which are great, btw), people have found a new way to leave the match early when they don't get what they want. Survivors who want to DC but want to avoid a penalty will instead throw themselves at the killer and then suicide on their first hook. This ruins the match for everyone else that they left…
-
And you wonder why people are DCing
You can't possibly claim to not know why people are DCing more when your ranking looks like this. This poor killer DC'd after the first generator was completed. I don't blame them one bit. I play solo but even if this was a SWF it wouldn't matter. This is WAY out of the 6 rank limit.

You cared about their fun so much that you took away mine
As we all know, Hex:Ruin was completely changed in the last update. So far i've only played survivor since then in order to complete that half of the tome II challenges. But I decided to work on the killer side. I played a round as Spirit on Gas Heaven, and boy, let me tell ya. TL;DR at the bottom if you don't like…

Off Topic: What do you do on really cold/snow days?
This may not apply to players who live in warmer climates that don't get snow. But here, in northwestern Canada, it is currently -38C with the wind chill (-36F) outside, and i'm pretty bored. My furnace kinda died so my house is cold, but I reset it and it's working to warm up now with 2 heaters helping. What do you guys…

protesting the Ruin changes: how to
Instead of using all of your mori's and being as toxic as possible... let's just strike from playing killer for 48 hours. I saw this suggestion in another thread, can't remember who said it otherwise i'd credit them. I really think it'll be much more effective than anything else. Upvote this post if you want to strike from…

I Played The PTB So You Don't Have To!
This post is 90% data and 10% opinion. Opinions at the bottom. I have played 4 games in the PTB (My usual amount), 2 killer and 2 survivor using whatever was changed or added. NOTE: I do NOT own the Doctor and didn't get a chance to ask any killers about their experiences. If you have anything you'd like to add on your…

Does anyone else feel this way?
After completing all archives challenges and getting to rift tier 70, I feel like.. I have no more purpose to play DBD. Before challenges, it was fun to try different builds and goof around, or challenge myself to do whatever as killer, but now that i've completed all the challenges and can't get higher in the rift, I feel…

Basement 4k Challenge + DC's
I've been trying to get the 4 basement sacrifices challenge today and I was about to get it.. And then 2/4 of the survivors DC'd. They did the usual "GG EZ" "TOO EZ" responses in the post-game chat. One of the other survivors was actually reasonable however, which I appreciated. My point here is that these types of people…

Exit gate bug?
Lately i've been noticing a bug as killer and it's really annoying. The last generator will get completed, and then all 3 of the remaining generators will pop with the bubble icon, and then when the exit switches show up in their bubbles an explosion notification will happen next to both switches. It's really confusing as…

A spot where you can't pick up a survivor
I just played a game as Legion on Badham Preschool and there is a spot on the map near the shack that you can't walk into far enough to pick up a survivor. Here are some videos, sorry for my obnoxious keyboard clicking. EDIT AGAIN: here are the videos, please let me know if they dont work I could pick up the Claudette as…

Playing survivor felt awful this last week
I played many games this last week, and it's gotta be the worst week of DBD survivor i've ever had. I play each role about 50/50, and I am really trying to finish the survivor challenges in tome level 3, but it seems like survivors were given challenges that are much much harder than the killer ones. At the very least, the…

My issues with the new map
Though the aesthetic of the new map is pretty, there are a lot of practical aspects of it that I don't like. I'll list them there are too many statues around the main structure. they make looping difficult because I keep running into them and they are too big to go around without having to correct my path. this is minor…

Idea: Minigames!
Instead of a casual mode, I thought of an idea: minigames. The minigames could be played on their own or while in queue for a match (similar to skirmish on Overwatch) and you can earn BP from doing them. Maybe not a lot, like lets say the max is 5000 BP per minigame round. They could be short and include types of games.…

I've been in queue for 20 minutes
No joke. I'm trying to do challenges and I'm working on survivor ones now, so I thought id queue up. I got into queue 20 minutes ago. I am watching YouTube while waiting and I finished a 23 minute video and I'm still waiting. I play on PC and I'm in Western Canada, so tell me why this is taking so long?

I'm not a fan of the new organization of the forums
I liked how it was before. General discussions was right there and I didn't have to go through 2 pages to get here. It's annoying especially on moblie; can't just go to general from the homepage, gotta click an extra link to get me where I want to be. Maybe this annoyance comes from my distaste for folders on my phone. I'd…

SWF Matchmaking went too far in the other direction
Originally the matchmaking for SWF was based on the lowest ranked player in the group (I think, correct me if i'm wrong). Then they changed it to take the average rank of the group, but it would usually be very very close to the lowest ranked player in the group. Meaning, it would match with a lower ranked killer and that…

What are they changing about Legion?
I wasn't aware that Legion was getting any changes and I can't check the patch notes right now. Someone enlighten me?

Totems and the EGC
As of right now, hex perks don't deactivate if they can't be used anymore (this is not the same as them being cleansed). ie. ruin won't deactivate after all the gens are done. This is kind of an issue if you decide to bring NOED and ruin. This discussion is NOT to talk about whether or not NOED is balanced. It's happened…

Do I need to worry?
There was a security breach on the forums recently, as you guys know.. so do I need to worry about hackers getting my password? I use it for more than just DBD forums and I really don't want to have to reset my password on everything.

For anyone wondering what Father's Glasses looks like
this addon is a game changer for me - the blood is neon red so survivors are much easier to follow than with scratch marks or hearing. I used to think it was regular blood.. boy was I wrong. Get the first hit and bam, they're basically dead.

I can't play solo survivor without kindred
It's absurd that I have to use a perk slot just to prevent my team from leaving me to die in my first hook when the killer isn't even camping. Kindred should be base kit for solo survivors, even if you remove the ability to see the killer within a certain proximity to the hook. Why wasn't this a thing from the start? It's…
-
if I escape I should NOT lose a pip
I played a game recently where the gens flew by quickly and I even got some healing done for my teammates, but I am an immersed player and didn't interact with the killer at all. I escaped, and then I depipped. why? I did my main objective, which is to escape, and yet somehow that isn't enough for the game. Escaping at the…

keys were never okay but I know how to fix them.
keys suck, lets be real. they have no counter and they give survivors undeserved escapes, screwing killers who could've done really well. I just played a game as trapper where I got 1 sacrifice and there was 1 gen left to do, and the hatch spawned right next to the last gen with progress. the 3 remaining survivors decided…

lets make the devs more aware of bad matchmaking
My last survivor match. Post screenies or descriptions of other absurd matchmaking to make the devs more aware of it. This is outside of the 6 rank limit and I play solo survivor. Something just ain't right here.

The Hotfix Ruined Matchmaking
I was playing on my bf's account earlier, doing his dailies. He was rank 12 killer and I found after the match that there was a rank 20, a rank 17, a rank 15 and a rank 12. that's pretty bad ranking i'd say. Just now I load into a match, and i'm rank 5 survivor on my own account. I'm with a rank 10, 12, 16, and a rank 11…

Archives memories dialogue
I've heard others talking about how the memories have talking, and there is a little playback button, but when I press it nothing happens. There's no talking and no matter how long I wait for it to start, it doesn't. It doesn't work on any of the memories that I have so far. Is this a bug?

Some changes I think happened but i'm not sure
I might just be going crazy, but there were a lot of tiny subtle things that changed with the new update. I'll list them here. the sounds that happen when you choose perks and items/offerings have become more dull/lost their echo. It sounds harsh to me now during the offerings screen, the offerings now make a card sound…

The new changes are really hard on my computer
I have a pretty potato computer already, and now with all this new stuff, I can't get away from lag. Before, I would just play on Low with no auto adjust, and now I have to turn my resolution in-game down to 50% for it to be bearable. I know there were a lot of things added to the game, and that might make it have to…

Justice For Vommy Mommy
Even if you play the Plague the way you're supposed to, you don't get any points and the entity hates you. I've seen way more displeased entities than I have even brutal or ruthless wins with vommy mommy. Here is my most recent game. I thought I did well considering I bought her just a couple days ago. Not awful, right?…

Now That's Game Breaking
I've heard around the forums and reddit that Micheal has been done pretty dirty by dedicated servers. I find this to be a true statement, as I just played against him. To set the scene: Ormond, I was Jane, there was a Steve, a Claudette, and a Kate with me. Micheal Meyers was the killer, and I pity him. After he got to…

It shouldn't work like this
**this discussion is NOT about whether the Spirit needs a nerf to whatever. Keep that in its own discussion.** I recently played a game against a Spirit, and it wasn't too awful. I had dead hard and DS, so it worked for me. But one thing I noticed is how exposing perks and hexes effect players when playing against the…

As A New Player, This Disappoints Me
Yes I know it doesn't help to complain about the event being delayed, but it looks so unprofessional to me. I started playing this game in August and I have gotten up to 500 hours so far. I was super excited for the Halloween event, since it will be the first event in DBD that I will participate in. Plus, the skins look…
-
Keys and the hatch
Keys are unbalanced but this discussion isn't about that So as it is right now, if someone opens the hatch with a key and the killer closes the hatch, the EGC will start no matter how many survivors are left or how many generators are left. The other day I was playing a match as killer and a survivor opened the hatch and…

QoL Change: PGTW
As we all know, PGTW is one of the strongest killer perks in the game. It can literally be the difference between entity displeased and merciless killer. The only issue I have with this perk is the following: The timer for PGTW goes down after hooking a survivor. In order for it's affect to be applied to a generator, you…
