Do you think ghostface will get a rework? Or a addon pass

Title I honestly kinda hope for a slight rework and addon pass

    My money is on an addon pass and some minor changes to his basekit- I'd imagine most of the work is going towards his reveal mechanic, but it's possible they have more ambitious plans than that.

    I'm really hoping for some kind of rework. If they can make his reveal mechanic actually work, a slight rework would be acceptable but I have zero faith that they'll be able to figure it out. In that case, I'd like a complete rework of his powers. Right now as a survivor, it feels like you can be starring GF in the face and no reveal will happen and as Ghostface, it feels like if the survivor can see the edge of one of your little robe ropes, they reveal you.

    Not to mention I absolutely hate that stupid 99 system. I don't feel like GF is being a very sneaky stalky killer when he's right on my ass and then goes into sneaky mode for half a second so he can hit me.

    Add on pass is not a solution if u wish to be a decent opponent for coordinated survs.

    Despite of that...I think ghostface will get an addon rework and legion a rework

    If I remember right every other time they've done a character revamp like this (e.g. Clown, Hillbilly, Leatherface) it's been more than just an add-on pass, especially since add-ons numerical changes are easy to program so they don't take months and months to do. Basically the longer a revamp takes the more likely it is they're doing something more than just changing a few add-ons.

    I just want them to fix his reveal mechanic to not be so wonky. Stare at him with nothing in line of sight, won't be revealed. Hide behind a rock taking up 99% of the screen, somehow can reveal him from that 1% not covered by rock in the corner. It's so obnoxious.

    As long as 99ing is still a thing, I don't really mind what they do to him. 99ing people is what turns Ghostface from an incredibly easy to play, weak, and boring killer with low potential into the strategic, high skill cap and deceptively-strong snowballer that he is in his current state. They can mess with the reveal all they want, or the power recovery, but this needs to stay.

    It's the thing that makes him fun, (for me, anyway) and I don't care if they make his power recovery 10 seconds and give him the ability to fly - if 99ing goes I will probably never play him again. Luckily, Ghostfaces rarely 99 because there are very few Ghostfaces that play him as more than just "stealth M1 killer", so I'm not incredibly worried.

  • Add-on pass because the power itself is fine. I don't recommend trying to make stealth work when you have 4 able-bodied survivors slamming gens while you're trying to Expose them...

    If I remember correctly they said legion was getting a addon pass
