Killer Side Is So Strong!
I mean come on! Look at this hook placement! Solo Q is doomed! (All jokes aside, I'm actually enjoying the new update. Seriously tho what the hell is this lmao)

Matchmaking Incentives
Is there supposed to be a notification or something that shows which side needs more players at the moment? Or do you just have to guess?

Someone please tell me if HOY is gonna be a canon sub-realm in the Entity's dimension. These characters need a break lmao

Cloud Status Unknown
Been over 2 years since I played this game and I decided to redownload it for poops and laughter. Says my Cloud Save Status is Unknown on Steam. Is my save data exploded like it did back in the day, or am I good?

What Have I Missed? Other Than All Of You <3
So I just got off the Island and I'm checking into MCT now. Been getting blasted for 3 months so I've missed a lot and I don't have a lot of time to check up on stuff. Anyone feel like filling me in on stuff I missed?

Farewell Dead by Daylight Community
It's been a long time in this community but I finally have to say goodbye to both this game and all of you. I've known some of you here since the Steam forum days and despite my gripes with the game, the community here is something I've been very attached to since Day 1. Hopefully the mods won't shove this post into…

Not Restoring Legacy is Undermining, Reply to Event Post
Back in June, @Peanits made a post regarding Legacy and why they chose not to restore it to players who rightfully earned it, stating that it would undermine the community that has been with them since 2016. Here is the quote: "To award Legacy to the rest of the community would severely alienate and undermine that part of…

Guide On Using Markdown/HTML Code For Forum Usage!
So these forums are a lot more entertaining because we can do things like text colors, easier access to Strikethroughs and the like. I decided to make a guide on the possible text manipulations you can use as an easy reference for the forum users. The link @Clyde made in his Forum Guide post nicely links to the Wikipedia…

The Rift Is TENTATIVE: Voice Your Opposition!
If you look closely in the roadmap, in the first section that shows when the Rift is coming, you can see the term "tentative" under it. For those that lack the vocabulary, this means "not set in stone." Not sure if they mean the release date or The Rift itself in general, but let us begin to voice our opinions on this.…

Restore Legacy to Those Who Rightfully Earned It!
I'm bringing this up again because it is still an issue that has not be fixed even after nearly 3 years. BHVR is fully aware of the file save bug that happened back around when Hag released, and many, many players had their progress reset. I was one of them. And yes, I was properly compensated 20 million Bloodpoints for…

The New Audio Is Preferable for Both Sides
As a Survivor, the music is still loud enough in my headphones that I can clearly hear the heartbeat and the approaching music. I can also hear the breathing of the Killer easier because of it, so it also assists in locating him sometimes. As a Killer, the lowered chase music is highly beneficial. It gives Killers a needed…

If Devs Care About Game Health, They Should Rework All Maps Before New Content
Since BHVR hijacked Rainbow Six Siege's roadmap design, they should hijack the idea Siege had about a year after launch with Operation Health. As the new Killer proves, once again, there are only 3 Killers in this game worth playing at a high level. The map design and pallet placement is so ludicrous that it hurts any…

Infectious Fright + M&A + Distressing?
Has anyone tried this combo yet? I saw another user mention a 48 meter Infectious Fright Myers user, and I was curious if anyone has tried this combo on other Killers, such as Hillbilly, Doc, or even Legion with his Iridiscent Button. Is this actually a somewhat viable combo if you were to throw Ruin on it? Or would you…

Dear Fellow Survivors Mains
This video right here is the reason Killers hate you all so much. Excuse the language, especially at the end of the video: Worst Game In A Long Time For those not willing to watch the clip, I ended up winning this one. I made a few mistakes here and there as Killer as it has been a minute, but I just wanted this to be here…

Dev Balance Mindset
https://forum.deadbydaylight.com/en/discussion/comment/523279#Comment_523279 So with the new patch going live on the PTB, we get confirmation that it was fully intended for downed/hooked Survivors to be able to reveal GF, including the Killer Instinct effect, despite GF having a massive cooldown of 30 seconds. I'm placing…

Petition to rename "The Ghost" to "The Boo"
Since he shys away and becomes powerless when you look at him. He's more like a Boo from Mario than a deranged serial Killer that stalks his prey. Big oof on this character yall

Concerns About Endgame Mechanics
So I have two main questions with how the Endgame will work in the upcoming update. 1. The gate seems to get fully powered once the Killer closes the hatch, no matter how many gens are left. Will this not present the same problem but a different position? By that I mean instead of Survivors camping the hatch, won't they…

DS Changes Are Great.
Incoming "losing survivor fanbase" and "killing the game" sentiments. This change to DS is absolutely needed for the overall health of the game. Before DS ever existed, Survivors had no trouble surviving and winning matches despite Nurse being in the game AND having 3 blinks at the time. At the point we are at now,…

Wake Up Call: Why This Game Should Not Be Balanced Around Voice Comms
I'll continue to bring up this video every time it becomes relevant. Now that more issues are getting fixed for Killers, the attention is now coming back to the genrush and the capabilities of SWF groups. I would just like to quickly remind everyone what the original intent of this game was, and why I and many other solo…

Petition To Either Create Ranked And Casual, OR Balance The Game Around SWF
From Mathieu Cote himself, the reason why this game was balanced around Uncertainty Factors. This is this fundamental reason SWF breaks the game, and the devs have failed to support this fundamental: https://youtu.be/YH5jhyU6GjU I wish to set forth a petition for the Devs to do as the title suggests. If you agree, please…

How To Fix Doding and Last Second Swap
Two of this game's biggest issues that remains as a general QoL issue are the problems of lobby dodging and last second switching. For those who do not know the term, dodging is what a Killer, or a Survivor using a program to detect the Killer's IP, does in order to pick and choose their matches. Of course, one of the main…

Give Legacy To Players Who Bought Non-licensed DLC
So, because old Legacy will likely never come back (nor will it likely ever be restored to those who lost it, such as myself), and Doctor, Feng, Ace, and Hag will soon all be free, BHVR should give players that purchased these DLCs before the change Legacy cosmetics for these characters. I think this would be a great…

Hex Perk Rework: Curses and Curse Bearers
So I've had an idea to buff Hexes for quite a while now, so I would like to throw it out there for people to discuss. We already know Hexes are easily found and disposed of due to poor spawns. The devs have been working on a Hex rework for some time but haven't had anything come to fruition. Here is some of my feedback:…

Insane Game Breaking Glitch In the PTB
So for my very first game, I experienced something quite... extraordinary. I did not even get to properly test anything. What I think happened is the game loaded the assets for me incorrectly. The game is supposed to load the map from the host, aka the Killer's game and computer. It seems to me there was some kind of weird…

Exactly How The New Pallets Will Work: MUST READ BEFORE PLAYING PTB
So, quick reminder for all players how the new pallets will work. I will sum this up as nicely as I can for it to make sense, as the devs do not always elaborate well. How They Used To Be So, with how pallets worked since version 1.1.1, the stun timing had been changed to occur at the beginning of the throw rather than the…

Odd Forum Settings
So it looks to me like this forums has some odd settings when it comes to posting rules, like how we can't delete comments and you can only edit a comment for the first 15 minutes of it being posted. Why such odd settings?
