New chapter 16 killer and map idea

Hey devs of DbD,

I have a suggestion for you guys for the next chapter’s killer and map. It would be a great and fun idea to add Jason Voorhees in the next chapter of the game. A lot of people have been asking for this. As we know from the movies Jason has insane brutal strength. I was thinking that his power could be that he throws his machete which impales the body of a survivor thus instadowns him/her. The machete will be stuck in the body of the survivor. The killer has to go over to the survivor to grab his weapon out of him to get killing again. In the meanwhile when the killer does not have his weapon on him, the player will see the bloody hands of Jason when walking over to the thrown machete. The killer can not injure other survivors when he has already thrown his machete. If the killer misses his machete throw he can just walk up to the stuck machete for example in a tree and pick it up. Normal (m1) hits will not count towards an instadown, but put a survivor in a injured state. The killer can not put a survivor in a mending state, that would be a little too OP in my opinion. The map which comes with the chapter is camp crystal lake. A decent sized lake in the middle of the map where survivors and killers can walk through. Survivors will suffer from a 10% running/walking penalty while in the lake. The killer only suffers from a 5% penalty. This makes it easier for the killer to have map control. 

I hope you guys can work something out like this for the new chapter.

(community let me know if you agree or disagree with me and why <3)

    For legal reasons, this simply can't happen at the moment. The machete power sounds intriguing, but it doesn't sound like something the dev's would add. I REALLY like the lake effects you mentioned. That seems like a great idea!

    These ideas seem awesome! I would love for this to happen, but due to the legal issues going on, we will have to wait. But I do think they will add him sometime in the future. Just gotta be patient!

    So basically insta-down hatchets... but if he misses he can't M1.
