    Just make a killer that doesn’t get Survivors easily butt-hurt and I think that’ll be good enough for their end. :lol:

    Please not another reduced speed killer. Stealthy, tactical, afflicting, deceptive, or brutal; any one of those would be a welcome trait. Just not another slow killer with a burst power.

    If the new killer can be bullied easily it will be well accepted.
    Isn’t that all killers? :cry:

    Fun fact: it will be the third killer in a row with 110% m.s. and a hindrance useless power tied to a 20 seconds cooldown and a double stun.

    No 110% movement speed killer and make it fun to play and go against, that's all I ask

    I'd say a Cool Design, Fun to use and unique power but Ultimately I just want them to be viable against SWF.

    I hope its annoying as ######### to go against. The slow progression from Legion is weak to omg ######### is this killer was absolutely hilarious.

    I want another Billy/Nurse Tier killer, kind of tired of having to play those 2 to bury SWF
    So can spirit and clown *Especially* spirit
    Clown kind of requires good add-ons and perks but can become mad strong
    Spirit if you get your mind games perfect can be better then nurse. Bit of luck/bit more skill then nurse but oh is it satisfying

    I got a 4k with Pig against a SWF team. That game got me to rank 1

    Not a single killer to date has came without an army of mad cuz bad, butthurt suffering, survivors creating a cryfest on the forums. It won't occur in the future either because the world is full of Dunning-Krugers.

    Good ideas to me:
    -Shapeshifter like some kind of magician, can disguise as another survivor? (Neutral idea actually, can probably be too weak or overpowered)
    -The wendigos from Until Dawn would be TERRIFYING (dlc)
    -A little girl or creature that can crawl through walls slowly, or hide and teleport through lockers.

    Bad Ideas:
    The killer is super slow with little reward
    The killer can be easily be dodged and spotted (Colorful rainbow pony furry!)
    Ur Mom Gay
    The killer is Peppa Pig
    A killer that is the Legion again, but worst, the killer can now only kill survivors by struggling to drag survivors by rapidly pressing space and slowly moving towards a hook.
    A shapeshifter that turns into an item in the environment like in prop hunt. Just no.

    This begs the question: "What would be fun to go against?"

    We want a challenge and not a migraine, I think.

    I dont think we could ever have a killer that is a fun a challenge and not headache inducing maybe fun and a challenge but is a pain

    Don't give the Killer perks that literally has no benefit for them but huge potential for the others, that's not cool.

    Oh i completely agree that the pig is good and so can other killers man. he just stated that there was no one released recently that could compete with nurse. i was simply telling him he was wrong :) that being said though, while pig isin't near spirit/clown levels, she is really solid, the mind games you can pull off/ the delay from her traps make her a great killer

    Why not 110% ms? I hope it is another 110% ms honestly.

    Except for legion, every single high tier killer except for billy has 110% ms or lower (Nurse, hag, spirit and huntress)

    Do's
    +It should be enjoyable, not boring either as play or play against. I hope it is both.
    +IT SHOULD REQUIRE SKILL. That is the most important thing. Me use m2, me becomes better approach is terrible. I hope it is another huntress, hag, spirit, nurse tbh.
    +Either strategical killer like hag or muscle memory killer like nurse. We didn't get a strategical killer for a long time so I am kinda hoping for a strategical killer.
    +More general perks that help players throughout the trial.

    Don't's
    +No more boring mechanisms like mending.
    +No easy powers.
    +No more situational perks for killers.
    +No more useless perks.

    Yeah yeah, I know. I'm just proud of myself for that game so I wanted to share. Also when I play Wraith, unless I'm really f_cking tired, I always get at least a 3k. Proud of myself :chuffed:

    Warning: Opinions stated like they are facts below

    I want another mind games killer.

    Like seriously. Mind games are the most interesting player interaction you can really have.

    If there is an objective best answer then it either becomes a puzzle game or it becomes "is your muscle memory good". Strategy requires uncertainty and that means there can't be a best option, however randomness is boring and uninteractive. Thus the Uncertainty should come from the players and your ability to manipulate, predict and fail to be predicted by them.

    I do consider spirit to be the best Killer (In terms of fun. Not power)
