My unlisted maps are getting played?
One of the maps has reached prestige 10 and expired, but someone managed to play it after expiring and not being listed on social. Another one is my cruel maze test on normal which I removed from the active list for a reason. It still get played? What is going on?

What changes do you believe will happen in the future?
If there is a patch coming, what changes do you believe will happen? It could be anything from rework, nerf, buff, removal or added features. For example, warmonger got its hitbox increased, arc barrier got nerfed, etc.
If you see a bunch of kills from someone, but no replay for them, does that mean they blocked you?
My base wasn't even unfair. It was just more clever than they were apparently. :P
How are the base names chosen? Weird coincidence
This may be a silly question, I was just wondering because I only started playing last night and I saw the exact name of my small Indiana city that most people don't know exists in the raid map. I thought that was funny and a huge coincidence because what are the odds? Either way I'm have an absolute blast with the game,…
meme that i'm too lazy to make
"get out of here custodian. this place is too tough for you" "too tough for me?! why that's ridiculous." "i'll have you know i raided a dangerous base last week" "and i only died for 20 minutes"
ETA on patch?
I like the game but come on. This crashing and freezing and infinite loading screen while doing anything and everything is getting really old and annoying. Its not beta anymore
does anyone else find it hilarious?
so many players now instinctively - almost as if trained by traumatic experiences - shoot the bedrock that lines my base's hallways. it's hilarious to watch and activates my monkey brain serotonin system. mainly because i dont have any fake blocks or 2nd phase bedrock imitators, but i have a TON of bedrock in my base. and…
Would you support guard cosmetics?
E.g. warmonger skin that resembles a futuristic robot with katanas?
Holocube Changes - Please Upvote If You Agree
Heya all! Anyone else sad that the Holocube can ONLY imitate bedrock? Especially if you wanna make a really pretty map? Not only that, that some Stage 2 cubes look like bedrock until the gen mat is grabbed I would LOVE if this was made important to the Dev team to be able to color/retexture those cubes so you can hide them…
I asked the customer support about exploits
I asked if using targeting through an acid block and killing Harvey at the start is an exploit. They answered like a politician the first two times and after 3rd time I asked for Yes or No answer. They still answered like a politician. It seems that they have not yet decided if those are exploits or not. They could not say…
A new low in outpost design.
I've felt like playing a bit today. (Just raiding, until they guarantee visits to an outpost I'm not investing a minute on that.) No less than two outposts had a way to kill Harvey instantly at the start. That's a new low. Naturally I've reported the outposts (I feel that's an exploit that's not mean to happen) and blocked…
Im Really Getting Tired Of This...
Most bases Ive come across are just Genmant kill-boxes that abuse the Second Wave Corrosive Cube exploit. I really hope this gets fixed soon. Ranged weapons are basically useless, running is basically useless since traps activate quicker than normal Second Wave traps (because the Boltshots/Incinerators are not actually…
What to do with "Masterd" Outpost?
I have prestiged my outpost 10 times. it now ran out of GenMat and i can't refill it anymore. Is it now just for testing and friends?
I´m confused about Bug reports
So we have a Bug report section on this forum, that has all reported bugs on pending for revision since february and a link on reddit to a special Bug report website, that kinda looks like the DbD cheater report page. Which was pinned by a dev yesterday. We also have a 5 page long thread on the Steam Bug Forum about…
What makes you acculade a builder?
Hello fellow custodians! I just got my "critical acclaim" achievement and was ... somehow unpleasingly confused by the percentage of players who already got it. Maybe I'm getting uncommonly lucky on my raids, but most of the bases I visit have something to deserve a good word - it can be overall enjoyable and make you feel…
Worries about Game design (King of Thieves)
I used to work on a mobile game with identical concept. It's called King of Thieves. And it works better in all aspects, unfortunately. Let me explain. In KoT you have stronger motivation to RAID dungeons, cause: a) Your reward could vary in a very broad range. And you can see your potential reward in advance. b) You…
Prestige 10 is the dead end?
Once the outpost is empty for the 11th time, it can no longer be refilled? What's the point, I thought at 10 prestige you can replenish it endlessly. But no, it's useless now. For what? I created such a good outpost, normal, 216 raiders, 973 kills, not a killbox but an interesting one. now delete it? it is very sad For…
Good Outpost Killing Raiders? Jokes on you!
My hard outposts don't record kills. The replay and the records show 0 raider kills in the stats, but when I actually watch the replays they've died A LOT. Why spend the time and effort to make a hard base if you end up getting no credit for it and it is just a giant waste in the end? It sucks being penalized for putting…
Why are these outposts both rated dangerous? The difficulty rating needs to be reworked
Wow, This Is Amazing Game Design...
Diamond Springs (Brutal Rating) was active for 17 hours in the "prime time" for my region, and guess what. It only got raided a single time. ONE SINGLE RAID. Guess what, now I cannot Prestige my base, because I do not have enough Prestige Points, because of stuff that is actively out of my control. Words cannot express how…
How do i Recycle raidable outpost
So how do I get a obtain a new set of outposts? I just hit a point where it seems like the 5 brutal outposts I have to raid are all using the 2nd wave corresive cube exploit, you know where the traps are behind a 2nd wave corresive cube but triggers because of the transition anyway. I have reported them because they used…
Improvement to prevent unbeatable levels
I'd like to suggest that players need to play suceccfully their own level before they can make it life. That would stop unbeatable deathtraps where you just take about 20 guards with dead man's switch, make a long path with corrosive cubes all around the path, let the guards drop in the cubes as soon as the GemMats are…
How to earn the currency?
How can I earn currency so I can buy my own Outposts?
What's the point prestiging ...
If I get one single visit? My outpost, prestige 3 got raided 8 times in total (and did 17 kills). (edit: that's for the 3 prestiges) From that I got 4 Fun, 2 Brutal, 4 Ingenious and 1 Artistic I feels stupid to pay for 12 hours if nothing happens during that time. Talk about a waste of both time and resources.
What is your favorite Outpost Difficulty for raiding and why?
When choosing an outpost to raid what difficulty do you select the most often? And why? Or maybe you choose outposts based on some other factors? I noticed that recently I'm playing only exclusively on Brutal maps. Both in co-op and solo. Those ranked Normal are just a walk in the park most of the time and Dangerous are…
The Best Part of This Game is Watching Replays
I enjoy the dungeon building experience but it is so much more rewarding when you can actually watch players raiding your dungeon. Seeing a well placed trap kill someone is so fun. I literally sat down with a bag of popcorn last night to watch raiders attempt my dungeon. Best part of the game imho.
Do raiders get the same type of GenMat that your site provides to you?
For example, if I buy a base that generates GenMat for the monsters advisor, and I think "it'll be cool to make something monster themed", will other players raiding my all-monsters base get the GenMat for the advisor who does monsters?
Outpost rules?
I am worried someone will report my outpost and it'll get taken down or worse banned is there a list of rules of any kind?
To kill, or not to kill(box)
So I've built up a few burial sites and have noticed a growing trend... Either a raider blows through my base in 5-10 minutes with 0-3 deaths, or they quit after 4-8 deaths. I have a couple that have "tricky" corners that get maybe 1 or 2 kills before the raider learns it and it's no longer a threat, or I have a somewhat…
2 PATHS FOR HARVESTER HARVY!!!
Finally someone explained it in a video! If you have been trying to figure this out too, go here! https://youtu.be/-6V6mipHjgU If links make you nervous, search Tarkis Zone Multiple Entrances for Harv on Youtube!
Masquerade doesn't work?
Holocubes with the masquerade mod still are avoided by guards, I can't even make a patrol path over them as the path drops me down despite the description mentioning guards aren't affected by the holocubes with masquerade active.
Question for those who get few to zero raids a day
How many times do you raid in a day?
"Block the tombs movement" for more overall raiding
When a raider gets fewer resources, it must raid more bases. So blocking all tombs will increase the amount of raiding. I already blocked all of my tombs just for that reason. Tough choice, but we must do sacrifices for the common good. Btw, I do not understand the fuss about tombs. I already got 10+ more maps and 25k…
Raiders Keep Leaving
Recently I have noticed that a lot of recent Raiders have just left the Outpost instead of trying to reach the end. It's annoying as I won't get the deserved about of kills from the base due to the lack of skill and perseverance from raiders... I don't use any cheap tactics like Kill Boxes and actually use smart traps from…
To anyone who complains about a killboxes
They're not that long.
How to get enough to Prestige Brutal Maps?
I have multiple small/medium normal/dangerous rating maps that get plenty of raids and therefore a decent number of kills. However when trying to make a large brutal map it becomes impossible to prestige because it requires way more prestige points, but only gets raided 2/3 times every 12 hours. The few raids it does get…
Is There a Plan for Open World
The current world feels a bit claustrophobic to me, I see the loading screen with the guy on the bike and that's what I wanna do, so that there's other ways of farming these materials, and looking at these outposts, anyone can raid them, anyone could team up, it'd be really nice to see a 3rd dimension to this world, it…
What is the punishment for the real exploiters?
The major issue currently is targeting through the acid block. Too many maps with full rooms of blocked vision and flames in nonsocial matches. Then there is the grey area. Using piston to kill the rover at the start. Rover can be saved with a quick shot, but with melee-only gear, it is not possible to save rover. Sure it…

Meet your maker lore
Okay after my first draft got eradicated, because I used 8 emojis, what kind of lore are you most interested in? 1. The pentekath (advisors) 2. Cloning and subclones 3.

Can’t use more than one Biolink
I’m on PlayStation 4 and my friend is as well. For some reason, he is able to have multiple bio links equipped to one suit, I have both suits unlocked but I can only use one bio link and i have all 3 of the iron guy’s bio links mastered, but it doesn’t let me use all three of them. Am I the only one experiencing this?
I've Changed My Mind - Kill Boxes
I used to think there were unbeatable burial sites that people publish. Aka, what the community is calling "Kill Boxes" But I have for sure changed my mind on that. The biggest problem with Meet Your Maker is the same problem with Dead by Daylight: EDUCATION! I had NO idea the Phoenix Pack was a thing! I didn't realize I…
psa: forbidden tombs
so... probably not many of you newer players know this yet, but... this is a forbidden tomb. this baby can fit so many currency drops in it. that it will literally blow your mind. all you gotta do is hit it. even makes a mechanical churning noise like a freight train would. so you know you're close. some maps have 2 and…
Well it didn’t take long for players to start finding exploits to abuse.
The game has been out mere days and already doing raids has become a tedious, frustrating, aggravating experience. I’m almost, universally coming across the exact same 2 build strategies over & over again now, requiring me to abandon raid after raid after raid because they’re quite simply impossible, especially if one has…

Is the DC server gonna return?
Like the forum is nice and all but I would prefer using the discord. They already have it all set up and stuff so I dont get why they are not using it.
Harvester path distance
I'm trying to build a maze-like base, but I'm having difficulty trying to tie the harvester path together. Is there a maximum pathing distance or should I be looking harder for closed off parts?
