Should Freddy be nerfed as well?
Comments

Did the person ask for any advice? Not the first thread where the person asks for nerfs either. So really sorry that my comment is not as constructive as you wish it would be.

Stop. Nerfing. Killers.
They are supposed to be the power role and they keep getting pushed further and further from that goal.

What about giving constructive feedback instead of throwing ######### at people for disagreeing with you?

I think he's fine as himself but some his combo's are bit crazy like three Jump Rope zipper combo, with Pop and BBQ. Stops Any progress you made by just nuking it with pop by teleporting across the map. Then they combine sloppy, you end up with stupid long heals, 10 year long Gens that give him insane amounts of time to travel.
I think if his add-on combo's were changed a bit he would be fine, I'd actually wasnt Behavior to bring other killers to where he sets in the league after those add-on changes. He's a tough fight, just not an impossible one, until those add-ons are played then if not everyone can run freddy great he just creams the team.

Oh what happend? couldn't get all the gens done in one button press? Could save the whole team? Couldn't go the whole game without going down? Boo boo. God, you survivors have it way to good. And the comment about removing billy's instadown.........you know.......the whole point of the character made me actually sick. If only we had devs that wernt so biased towards survivor.

Thats got to be the best joke ive heard in years

At this point its not 1v4 its 4v1

The only killers that need nerfing are Hillbilly and Ghostface.
Hillbilly because he has too many strengths with little downsides and Ghostface because he’s hands down the worst killer BHVR has ever created. While not specifically OP he just sucks so much fun out of the game.

Adding bots so you baby plebs get the matches you want was pretty damn constructive.
0 -
so because hes "unfun"to you he should get nerfed?
0 -
Why need bots when we already have you? Takes the same skill to beat one as to beat you.
0 -
He seems to be unfun to the vast majority of people that put any time into survivor.
Also lol you’ve done nothing but complain about DS because it’s “unfun” to you.
0 -
So anything that's un-fun for survivors needs to be nerfed right? 🤦♂️
But what about all the BS that's un-fun as killer? You think we like gen rushing? You think we like swf's running coms? Toolboxes? DS? BT? Clicky-clicky? Keys? Sprint burst into sprint burst again? God loops and windows? T-bagging and get gud messages?
I don't know how there's anyone left actually wanting to play killer and enjoying it. People like this have RUINED this game for killers. Say what you want, and attack me all you want, but the stats are beginning to prove all us killers arguments now. By the way, how are those que times again?? 🤷♂️

false. I complained about DS being abused. even the devs have stated that its not being used as intended .
Also there are several people who dont mind playing against ghost face myself includer (rank 3 survivor and rank 1 killer)
0 -
When I said you were not new to baits I was correct. Alltought this bait is easily not absurd, is not an good one, since you doing with no effort so: 4/10 bait; your bait idea is just easily perfomed with 0 effort, so your other bait with Clown were actually better, but I gave you points for staying in the post.
0 -
And even ghostface players know his reveal mechanic is completely busted and not working as intended.
0 -
I agree. As soon as match starts and I see him I feel like dying. He’s so lame.
1 -
that's not a problem with players Its the game itself, instead of calling for a nerf call for them to work on the mechanic. because I can tell you after playing ghost face for several hours stalking doesnt always work .
-dedicated servers makes leaning impossible sometimes
- you cant stalk through corn but survivors can break you out of corn (and behind cover)
-you can get broken out of stealth even from behind cover.
Also a lot of survivors dont know how to break him out of stealth, you have to make sure he is directly in the middle of your screen. make sure your character is not in the way at all.
so in the end players are not abusing ghost face like survivors are abusing DS. it's the devs who messed up with the reveal mechanic. so instead of asking for nerfs ask for them to look at it .

and after billy and freddy, who is next on your list?
why even bother playing, sounds like a farming sim is more appropriate
^ directed at anyone saying to nerf more killers
0 -
Lmao ive played him too and you can be slap bang in front of a survivor stalking them and they dont even start to reveal you.
Hes just an awful, awful cheap killer. The go-to killer for campers.
1 -
I'm done. I gave you multiple reasons why he doesnt need a nerf. instead of saying you were overreacting you keep making excuses. have a good day.

You mean the 7 second invincibility plus reset if you wake up before you fall asleep? no thanks.

His stalk mechanic is buggy as hell but hes not a cheap killer or the go to killer for campers. His stalk mechanic is just as likely to fail him as it is to actually work in his behalf. Furthermore camping a hook in stalk is probably the easiest way to lose your power, as hooked survivors are the best at revealing him. They have 360 degree view while hooked and can reveal him from behind walls. through walls, through corn. They need to make his mechanic more consistent so both survivors and killers know when it will work or when he get revealed. As for camping killers, Bubba will always be the go-to for camping. His fast one hit down with an area of effect element allows for multiple downs on demand when camping.

"The weaker Myers" has faster stalk base kit, and can have no terror radius until attack for practically the whole trial.
In reality, both are strong in their own right, but have different play styles.
Ghost Face is Myers, but has to be stealthier to be so.
0 -
Its definitely buggy in his favour. Very much so. On odd occasions you can be revealed behind a rock but that doesnt compare to all the free hits or even instadowns you will get as survivors struggle to reveal him.
As for camping I can actually count on one hand the number of Ghostfaces I’ve seen that dont camp the hook. I say that with no exagerration. Its not hard to break los with a hooked survivor. Just hook them in the jungle gym and walk around the outside for example. You can go in a game against a Leatherface and only a minority will camp. With a wraith its about a 50/50 chance. With GF though its pretty much guarenteed they will camp the hook in that game.

Buffing the weakest killer in the game
He gets decent rework
Survivor logic: well, let's tell them to nerf him again into the ground
2 -
Begone with your Hillbilly Rework words of Demons. NEVER touch little Billy. And Stop Condoning it!
0 -
No. Freddy is fine.
0 -
Here's how I look at it. You can't touch the top tier killers in this current dbd era because they're all killer have anymore. Nurse was an exception because she's still the top killer and Billy comes in second. Before you can even think about touching them, you need to fix the core game first.
If the dev's really started nerfing killers in the ways you are suggesting then killers will either leave the game completely or become more desperate to the point of pure toxicity because that's will be the only way to win. It will make killers camp more, slugs more and bring even more ebony's. Is that what you so desperately want survivor mains?

Yes, Freddy should absolutely be nerfed, something shoud be done about his power. The fact he can uses whatever he has (fake pallets, snares, teleportation) with no downside makes him the only killer in the game this way. Every other killers have some sort of slowdown or some other downside when using their power. They really went a bit overkill with his rework, now it is the easiest killer to play and yet one of the top3 killers. "Easy killers" to play should be weak killers at top level play, whereas "hard killers" to play should be the best killers at top level play (which is already the case with Nurse). Freddy is really a braindead killer with no learning curve and everyone hates to play against him now.
Gen Speed should also be nerfed for survivors though, it is a bit too fast against most killers right now.

How would I theoretically teabag the entity at a pallet. I did my job, I ran to the strongest pallet on the map, camped it, dropped it, and then teabagged.

Oh noooo my feels are hurt boo hoo lololol.
You sure got me good. Great counter !

Good

They only work on players in dream world. If you play smart you are not in dream world, and his snares/pallets dont work on you are you have already dropped them before the chase has begun.
0 -
Anyone who says "Freddy is fine" hasn't played enough games against Freddy. It is the most dull experience you will ever have.
If I play smart, the auto timer that puts me in the dream world won't do that? Good to know.
0 -
Or you keep one survivor awake at all times and he wakes the rest up without having to go to the bubble or miss skill checks.
0 -
It's a shame the timer applies to everybody and that waking up takes longer every time you do it before waking up with the clock. Guess I should outskill that too.

how about people stop asking for killer nerfs? Your queue for getting a decent killer is that good eh? You’re ok waiting longer and getting ######### killers? Because that’s what you’re advocating for. There’s already so few killers they have to match purple and red teams against green killers.

Freddy: I genuinely never really understood why people hate going against him so much. Forever Freddy, I completely understand but just Freddy in general? He's a killer that's at his strongest when you're asleep. In other words, whether or not he gets stronger lies entirely in your hands as a survivor... Yes, he can spam snares but that just makes him a better Clown and no one seems to complain about him and even Clown has add ons that make his reloading speed extremely fast so that he can "spam" his bottles. Fake pallets are a gamble if you're asleep but that's just another reason for you as survivor to wake up. His mobility is fine too and he even loses his mobility the more gens get done. Again, in other words, it's entirely in your hands as a survivor to which parts of the map Freddy is going to be able to teleport to.
Ghostface: Practically a slower wraith with a broken stalk ability, also can be broken out of his stealth ability. To be honest, I found I struggle more playing against Wraith than Ghostface, especially now since he doesn't have any form of mobility and gens are able to be done quickly.
Billy: He's got mobility which is perfectly fine. Honestly, if you're not outpositioned you're not going to go down easily by his chainsaw, and that goes for insta saw too. Though, insta saw is a bit on the edge and I would see why these addons get changed or so. Everything else about Billy is perfectly fine imo.

"Should this killer be nerfed because he's strong?"
OOF.

Bait. No killer needs a nerf right now, Trapper and Leatherface both need a buff
0 -
Or you could just get used to his lullaby and or use perks like spine chill. You are call for a nerf of a killer when the devs have given you core mechanics and perks that counter killers mechanics.
