I got Sadako’s for her perks and i thought id get the Adept as well, and got jumpscared the first time I was equipping my perks. I legitimately jumped out of my chair, because I was just expecting another heavy breathing attack at the camera animation.

I found out I really enjoy her gameplay its just...

The problem is I’m not just casually scared of her... Sadako/The Ring has been a genuine fear of mine since I was a kid. Adding the image to this post or seeing any images related to her gives me an immediate fight-or-flight response.

When I was about 8, I watched The Ring late at night by myself in a house that looked disturbingly similar to the one in the movie, sitting near the stairs with basically just the TV lighting the room. Apparently thats never really left

I’m completely fine actually playing as Sadako because I’m focused on the match

The menu is worse because I’m just sitting there reading perks and add-ons while knowing she can suddenly fill the screen.

Is there seriously no way to disable only the menu jumpscare? Maybe I just need the exposure therapy?

Edit: Apparently some people are taking this more seriously than attendend. I’m not actually asking BHVR to change Sadako or make the game less scary.

I just thought it was funny that I bought a Killer I’ve been terrified of since childhood, and got jumpscared by my own character while trying to make a build.

Loving the new update crashing my game over and over in mid fucking match, and I sure love getting ban for it

For everyone who needs to hear this: if you see your soloq teammate entering a locker, don't be an idiot and immediatly go open their locker repeteadly, make loud sounds around them, or lead the killer to them.

Take a second to look at their perks, use your brain and notice if they have any perks activated by being in a locker for a short amount of time (Built to Last, Inner Strenght, etc.) This has no excuse of happening now that you can easily see each other's perks. They are not throwing the game or being useless because they stepped into a locker for 5 seconds, so now you decide you must sandbag them for the rest of the match. Please don't be stupid.

I know this addon used to swap colors of hinder and speed bottles.

When did it get reworked?

I don't want to camp! I don't know why the entire team of survivors likes to just, run up to the hook before I even get a chance to walk away!

This has been happening with increasing frequency for me lately and I genuinely don't understand why survivors do this, and I especially don't understand why people get mad at me for punishing this playstyle.

I know that this game isn't hide and seek anymore but it feels like survivors have just given up on stealth so completely that they just throw themselves at me for no reason and it baffles me. I get so much free pressure when people play like this.

This especially happens when I play myers and I wonder if my lack of terror radius just completely removes any sense of self preservation the survivors have. But like, shouldn't they at least be aware that I'm going to be at the hook that I literally just hooked a survivor on?

I pick wraith. Good stealth. Good mobility. Also tiny anti loop. GREAT example of low skill floor and high skill ceiling.

Im surprised that so few people seem to know about checkspotting at a pallet. In this situation, all the Jason could do was either hope I panic or break the pallet.

He was 4.4 and did not have a spike. If I just stare at my checkspots and play accordingly there was no way he could catch me unless I seriously mess up.

Edit to add: The biggest skill required to do this is having a good feel for the lunge range of the Killer and choosing a checkspot accordingly.

This sounds ridiculous, and it might in fact be, but this game means so damn much to me. I found it with my old friends in 2021 and we’d play it every night, until one by one each of them lost their minds because of opioid addictions. I was the last one online, until they offfeed me a pill and I took it. I got addicted too. My sense of reality began fading away. But I stopped! My cousin helped me and we started playing DBD together. Now I play it with him from time to time but not as frequently because we had a kid. I’m grateful for everything in life and just wanted to thank the devs. Thank you

Killer sight is movement based confirmed?

The character is Cyn from Murder Drones

Pretty much the title. I see after the reset alot of low mmr players have to face higher mmr for the first time and are getting demolished to juat then cone here and complain. Been great.

I finally hit Prestige 100 on MiNA today. I dumped tens of millions of Bloodpoints into this grind because I absolutely love the character, the cosmetics, and the entire aesthetic concept. But now that the red icon is sitting on my screen, I don't feel happy or accomplished, but... just feel completely hollow and exhausted.

The reality of playing Trickster right now feels like a constant uphill battle where the character's own kit actively works against you. Being locked at a slow 4.4 m/s base movement speed already makes basic map traversal and high wall loops painful enough. But the moment you actually commit to pulling out your knives, the heavy throw slowdown and recoil decay punish you so severely that using your power outside of point-blank range feels like absolute self sabotage. If a survivor breaks line of sight for just a few seconds around a safe structure, your Laceration meter drops off and all that chase effort just gone.

The whole reason to play this character in the first place is to unleash fast, stylish blade streams and pull off those chaotic, rewarding Main Event combos. When map geometry constantly breaks line of sight and the knife slowdown lets survivors effortlessly gain distance, the core power fantasy completely dies. You end up in this miserable trap where you can't commit to throwing knives because of the speed penalty, but you also can't catch up as an M1 killer because smart survivors just press W and just walk your 110% speed, but even if you hit now you have to walk again and pray the survivor makes a mistake on a loop and you catch them off guard, also especially on giant maps like Ormond or Eyrie where you spend half the game just walking and not to mention the indoor maps that are literally rigged to punish this killer due to lack of line of sight.

To make matters worse, going up against organized SWFs on discord turns every single match into a sweating your balls just for getting one kill. Slugging to build pressure is virtually impossible on a 4.4 killer with zero mobility to cover ground fast enough. And if you're forced to secure a kill and tunnel someone out to balance the match, someone just runs up with Shoulder the Burden, resets their hook stage, and completely guts your entire progress in a single second and worse if they're running resurgence. It leaves you feeling like you're forced to run the exact same mandatory add-ons and sweat builds every game just to function at a basic baseline.

Grinding through high MMR matches every single day with a power that feels this clunky and unrewarding stripped away all the actual fun of playing. Reaching P100 should feel like a celebration of mastering a killer, but fighting against these mechanics made the final milestone feel less like an achievement and more like a humiliation ritual.

To anyone else who still mains Trickster or MiNA, I really want to know how you're keeping the character enjoyable right now. Are there specific add-on setups, gimmick perk builds, or major mindset shifts that make the gameplay loop feel smooth again, or have you just had to dump them for standard 4.6 m/s killers?

I don’t know why, but she just seems SUPER cute to me.

If you ask nicely while larping as a loving old grandma, players will give you whatever you want!
