Well, The next chapter is without a doubt the Bird Box ....
I am guessing this is 100% unintentional, and a result of some bug, but my game (through Steam) just started doing this today. It's like this on every screen. The options and everything else that shows up on the overlay is visible and interactive, but the background (namely the actual GPU rendered space) is not. I already…

Spawn mechanic issue?
I have 3k solo survivor hours and this week is the first time I ever witnessed this issue. Sometimes while spawning there is quite a big difference in terms of how certain survivors get to control their character faster than others. It can not be just ping/latency alone, because from my personal POV (spinning animation…

Brown medkits bug?
Has there been a change made to brown medkits that I am unaware of? None of my brown medkits (and the same goes for the ones found in chests) are capable of healing a full health state. Unless I happen to get and hit a great skill check, they all seem to lose charges when the healing progress is already over 99%, but not…

If it were not for swf, this licensed killer would be fantastic.
Obviously, swf+comms would kill this killer power at its core but imagine if we could have: The monster from It Follows. A killer capable of randomly turning into one of the remaining survivors with No Terror Radius or aura...but only capable of walking towards you. Imagine this situation: you're working at a gen, you see…

I hate playing against pinhead but.....
Nothing gives me more pleasure than escaping with the Lament box in my hand. Trying coming now, sucka...... PS: I know that the box will respawn, but its not about the box. It's about sending a message.

Solo survivor is getting more and more hopeless
2.3K hours, over 2K as solo-survivor and sadly I can no longer say I see any semblance of light at the end of this tunnel. Look, I understand SWF is an issue, and I am not going to tip-toe around it. Significant changes were needed, and had been needed for a while with regards to it. However, there is also the other side…

Rift - "Self Preservation"
Can someone explain to me what this rift challenge actually asks for: Hide in a locker within 5 seconds of being in a chase with a killer. Am I suppose to camp a locker, hope a killer spots me, and within 5 seconds of the chase start notification sprint jump into that same locker?

Where are all the Oni killers?
In the last 2 weeks (70 hours or so) I have only gone against one Oni killer. It's not like Oni is a low-tier or a licensed killer, so where did they all go?

Escaping purgatory servers.
For reference: US-based Solo Survivor-main playing on a PC through Steam. I have encountered the following scenario before (last year in August, when crossplay was first introduced), but it eventually went away on its own. However, it appears to have resurfaced....and with a vengeance. Normal Server: Start playing DBD,…

Pre-match disconnects/cancelled matches cause a real de-pip
Is BHVR playing "whack-a-bug" behind the scenes? Because everytime one bug gets fixed, another fixed one seemingly reappears.

Fair Maps
Before I tried playing killer for real recently, I had no idea how insanely large some maps can be for killers. On the other hand, some maps are insanely killer-sided as well. This being said, what are some of the most fair maps in DBD, equally for both killer and survivor?
-
Lonely Killers
Killers should totally have their own lobby. Seeing the possible team of survivors. And then the entity should just pull one out at random into the match. Like a giant arcade crane machine.... And they could even struggle if they want if they happen to see 2 keys, 4 medkits etc. Change my mind.

How does vertical distance affect range based perks?
For certain perks, Devour Hope for example, the killer has to be a certain distance away from the hook for it to result in a token/effect. At the same time, on certain maps like Haddonfield, Springwood, even MacMillan's Ironworks with the really tall building, there can be a huge vertical distance (basement to 2nd floor)…
-
The frequency of Moris is bananas
Perhaps labeling Ebony Moris ultra rare was a miclick because this is a bit laughable. I am a survivor main, who got Legion to do the 45 scream challenge and take a look at this. How does it make sense for any killer to end up with 3 Ebony Moris and 1 Green Mori before level 30, especially without any prestige
-
Party creation failed
Every time I click on the survivor option in the main menu I get "Party Creation Failed" and get kicked back into the main menu. Killer lobby, and killer matches start up fine and play out without issues. I have alredy tried disabling/enabling crossplay.

Dwight the Brave
This particular Rift Challenge....After the first multiple sequential attempts tonight, I started by saying things like: "can't be, this is impossible", thern "this is hard and ridiculous. I keep spending so much time so close to the that I am not helping my team at all but maybe it will happen this time. Well it didnt and…

Killer build you don't see too often.
Earlier today I went up against a killer, whose build made for a highly, highly unusual match at red ranks. I wish I had taken a screenshot, to make this quicker, but anyways here it goes. Map: Hawkins Lab Killer: Pyramid Head Perks Unnerving Presence III - 10% more skill checks within terror radius, 60% smaller zones for…

Why isn't The plague considered a bottom-tiered killer?
I have recently been looking over killer tier threads while waiting for matches, and one thing I cannot seem to figure out is why The Plague is not considered a bottom tier killer. I don't know if I would place her at the very bottom with the Cannibal, but seeing her ranked higher than the Pig/Legion baffles me. Every…

What just happened?
I just got a message in the middle of a match regarding Anti-cheat/files not matching requiring me to quit the game right then and there (just an OK button was present and it was a modal message inside DBD itself) When I turned it back on , there was another message regarding the recent update changes. My addons, item, and…

Need your opinion: Toxic/Fair ?
I would really like to hear what people think about this: Last night I played an interesting match, which caused some controversy in the post-game chat, to say the least. PRE-GAME: Killer: Leatherface. Realm: Springwood Ranks : Survivor = 2 red(one of them being me), 1 purple, 1 green Killer = Green(?) FWIW, Bubba is just…

Silent Hill realm fps
I know I am not the only one suffering massive fps drops in certain areas of this new map. I have asked and confirmed it with many other players in the post-game chat, and heard the same from both killers and other survivors. This issue was unique to this map, every other map in the game gives me an FPS that is why more…

Some strategies to counter the Doctor?
I am a red ranked survivor, yet one killer in DBD that I don't seem to still have a sound strategy for is a decent red-ranked Doctor. Thus far, the only thing I have come up with and had good results with is to constantly be on the move and try to take as many bites from anything and everything in different areas of the…

How many charges per health state?
How are health states and their healing cost calculated with respect to medkit charges? For example: I have had situations where the 16 charge medkit without addons: 1. did not actually heal a full state (blanked out at 99%) 2. healed one state and then dissaperaed (standard) and 3. healed one and had a fraction of charges…
-
How does the Syringe work with Deep Wound?
The info for the syringe states that "the effect is cancelled if the survivor changes health state" . If I were to use the syringe on a survivor affected by Deep Wound, would the syringe: Still work after they mend themselves, or is mending technically NOT a change of health state (but deep wound is)? If they continue…

About to have a transcendental experience
After countless hours, and by nowlikely hundreds of millions of bloodpoints earned, I am about to do something that I have not done before. Look at my currently available bloodpoints! Yes, that's right. I am about to zero out my bloodpoints. To my knowledge, there is no way to simply reset your current bloodpoints or…

Hook Gymnastics consensus
Today I stumbled upon this tidbit in the DBD wiki: Early on in the Game's life, hooked Survivors established a way to communicate a Killer's proximity to the other Survivors: Hanging still from the Hook means something along the lines of: "The Killer is far enough away or preoccupied with something else, you can come and…

Did Party Streamers become super rare???
This is obviously just my own anecdotal evidence but sometime in the last 2 weeks or so I got the feeling that Bloody Party Streamers were no where to be found so I decided to pick one character (level 50, maxed out perks aside from No Mither from the start) , with which I would try to collect every add-on above brown ( i…

Hardest rift challenge so far
Some of the rift challenges, especially the ones from the first tome, were completely off the hook. Now, all of these challenges are obviously doable for SWF etc. but for solo players , they are incredibly hard. As a survivor main, I have witnessed Six Feet Under on more than one occasion, when going up against either a…

A plea to all players and devs
Hello everyone, I'm currently in New York State, on Long Island, in an area hit really, really hard by the current crisis. The things I and the rest of my colleagues here have all seen by now are really, really awful. A lot of us have never imagined that things like rapid cadaver disposal would become a topic of…

Bound Enveloipe
Bound Envelope offering grants the 25% BP bonus, but why is it limited to survivors ONLY? Its a poor offering for a Green, but to also take this bonus away from the killer is ....well, rude. The Escape Cake makes sense as it is strictly a personal bonus.; the same goes for the lesser envelope. However, the Bound Envelope…

evader emblem
Is there a reason why the evader emblem does not go to at least Silver if you manage to escape without ever interfering with the killer? I have actually just got iridescent Benevolent, iridescent Survivor, gold Lightbringer, yet only bronze Evader, which felt very, very strange especially when you try to think logically…
