Frequently asked questions

There are a few reasons why you might be unable to view a player's statistics:

1. Incorrect Steam ID: Ensure that you've entered the correct Steam ID. A small typo can prevent the system from locating the player's profile.
2. Private Steam Profile: If the player's Steam profile is set to private, their game data won't be accessible. To view their stats, the player needs to set their profile and game details to public.
3. Steam Server Issues: Occasionally, Steam's servers may experience downtime or delays, which can temporarily prevent access to player data. In such cases, it's best to wait and try again later.

Several factors can lead to discrepancies in your progress statistics:

• Steam ID changes: If you've changed your Steam ID or created a new account, previous data might not carry over.
• Privacy settings: Altering your profile's privacy settings can affect data collection. Ensure your profile and game details are set to public.
• Steam server issues: Temporary issues with Steam's servers can result in incomplete or delayed data synchronization.

If inaccuracies persist, please contact our support team for assistance.

To locate your Steam ID:

1. Open the Steam client or website and log into your account.
2. Click on your username to access your profile.
3. The URL in your browser's address bar will look like https://steamcommunity.com/id/YourCustomID or https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/YourSteamID.

This numerical Steam ID is what you'll use on Dead by Stats.

To set your Steam profile to public:

1. Log into your Steam account.
2. Click on your username and select "View my profile".
3. Click the "Edit Profile" button.
4. Navigate to the "Privacy Settings" tab.
5. Set "My Profile" and "Game Details" to "Public".
6. Ensure that the option "Always keep my total playtime private even if users can see my game details" is unchecked.

These settings will allow Dead by Stats to access and display your game statistics.

Dead by Stats aggregates data from various sources. If someone else has searched for your Steam ID or if your profile data has been collected through other means, your statistics may already be present in our database, placing you on the leaderboards even if you haven't personally used the site before.

Our statistics are based on in-game achievements and actions. If you've used a killer's power even a few times, it can significantly impact the stats, especially if the sample size is small. Additionally, certain achievements may be easier to obtain with specific killers, skewing the data. For more accurate statistics, consistent gameplay with each killer is recommended.

Currently, Dead by Stats only supports tracking for Steam (PC) players. Console platforms like PlayStation, Xbox, and Nintendo Switch have restrictions that prevent external sites from accessing detailed gameplay data. Therefore, we cannot provide statistics for console players at this time.
