Multiplayer games can be an opportunity for great connections and competition, but not everyone is nice or plays fair, so online games usually have a reporting system to identify and punish anyone who breaks the rules. In the case of Dead by Deaylight, the in-game reporting system isn’t as intuitive or easy to find.
DBD's Failed eSports Scene
You can report any player in-game in Dead by Daylight for four reasons: Harassment, Griefing, Exploits, and Unsportsmanlike Conduct. You can only report things that happened to you or another player in the match you were in, you cannot report players from other matches, such as streamers or friends. If you're unsure which category your situation falls into, here's an explanation for each:
If you have experienced any of the above situations, you can report the offending player after the game has ended. When the game has ended, go to the scoreboard by clicking on the small arrows. Hover your mouse over the hidden report button on the right side of the line of the player you want to report. A button with a thumbs up and a thumbs down will appear; that is the report button.
After clicking report, choose the category and describe what happened. The system ignores the reporting player, so you will not be notified of the progress of the report, for example if the player is banned.
