What do y'all want to see as a killer?

I want a grim reaper type killer, with the robe and scythe. What do y'all want?

    A kickboxer gone insane with brass knuckles and he punches survivors faces.

    A vampire inspired and/or a flamethrower using pyromaniac. I just want to see the survivors burn.

    Left 4 Dead's Tank or a tank-type character.

    Which is, y'know, super strong, loud, slow (but not slower than Survivors of course), etc.

    Their own take on a Jack the Ripper character. I really want an aristocratic type killer with a top hat and suit with something like a cane for a weapon.

    The Alchemist from the lore would be cool.

    If they planned it out and revealed him in that way it'd be sooo cool.

    As a killer? A balanced game, where I'm not pressured 24/7.

    Jack Torrance.

    He'll have the ability to go crazy and oneshot people.


    Hm.

    Just like what was leaked for the next killer. 👀

    A Doppelgänger who uncontrollably switches into a different currently playable killer every so often.

    A Shapeshifter who can disguise as different survivors.

    Won't happen though because of three letters: SWF

    The Telepath, who stands still and temporarily mind-controls (truly takes control of) a random survivor who has been “bugged” with his special ability attack. The effect should last somewhere between 10-20 seconds each time.

    While he can’t hurt the survivor directly with attacks (because he can’t control the killer’s body during mind control) he can interfere with survivors in many ways.

    • missing skill checks
    • running toward where the killer is standing
    • pulling pallets
    • depletIng exhaustion perks/throwing pebbles/etc.
    • dropping items in dangerous places
    • preventing hook saves
    • using other elements that survivors may try to avoid (similar to not cleansing against Plague).
    • running away from the gate at the end of EGC
    • and many others!

    On top of all this, he can identify the location of the survivor and others nearby before he loses control.

    Nosferatu or maybe Vlad the impaler....

    Werewolf, he could run on all fours for good map pressure and either have a shred type ability like demo or an ambush like piggy.

    I want exactly what you wrote or a mumie killer with a pyramid indoor map.

    Call me old-fashioned, but I'd probably pay to play a werewolf.

    I want a plauge doctor, would fit in pretty great thematiclly and there's tons of different things you could do concerning his power.

    Make disturbing crows pass on the plauge (whatever debuff that would even entail)

    Releasing rats that can hide in gens or lockers that debuff survivors with the plauge when they come near/interact with it.

    Ect, ect.

    Another shout for a Jack the Ripper character.

    He gets extra bonus for catching the female characters..

    Lets see.

    • I'd like to see a prison warden, be it a ~modern military prison warden or a medieval dungeon Gaoler/Executioner. As a Pyramid Head fan this might be a way to get an expy incase we want an original instead a licensed. A personal concept is based on placing traps that spawn walls like the exit blockers.
    • Someone classy as #########. Be it a vampire or a gentleman hunting the most dangerous game. Can cross over with the whole Jack the Ripper - theme. (Record of Ragnarok's Jack would fit the design) (if the devs cant rig the face we can always tet another masked killer)
    • Some beast tamer. The concept of a slow killer who has multiple attack drones patrolling the map seems interesting, if complex to design.
