    lol I believe many of us have seen the movie.

    My vote is an obvious no.

    A Xenomorph should punish those who make themselves too visible and those who stray too far from the rest. I think it would be insane if you could fend off the alien using fire or burning equipment you can find it craft or something.

    I think an Alien chapter is my most wanted (after Jason/F13). Imagine the space attires for the survivors.

    I'll frown at you when we get an uninteresting chapter like legion again.

    Also Ellen Ripley from Alien Resurrection looks like Michael Jackson if you're not sold yet

    You really miss Friday the 13th don't you?

    * * * * * * Input is good, the killer would have to play the same on every other map so water wouldn't work.

    My stance remains unchanged: It wouldn't fit.

    It would fit. That kinda attitude will get you nowhere but cocooned to the basement wall.

    @Orion you supported Alien being in this game as a chapter. You're a very knowledgeable user and you have 'experienced' dbd enough to understand what is good and what is bad for the game.

    Most of all you know what fits and what doesn't.

    I believe Orion has a good sense of what players want. Alien is one of those things that you just have to stop everything and play/watch and experience whatever it is that's there. An Alien chapter would be a beacon to all alien fans in all of gaming to check out dbd.

    The lore itself could grow so much more in-depth and it can make the game explore new ideas. You could even have a survival game mode where you have to fend off the alien using fire and equipment.

    An alien chapter can add so much variety and the thickest lick of paint you've ever seen to the game. If it ever happens and they get it right. It could be the greatest thing behaviour has ever achieved.(I don't really follow behaviour outside of dvd tbh)

    It could be a multiplayer alien isolation dbd cross over game thingy. It is a great combination.

    I'de be down with some cosmic horror making it's way into the game. (besides the Entity ofc, they are a cosmic lovecraftian themed horror obviously)


    Power: face hugger.

    You leave a face hugger, if a survivor passes near it, it attaches to them, alowing there aura to be seen, and sapping the strength to throw down pallets.

    when ppl need to think any type of non humanoid creatures wont be in the game like(predator,alien etc) whatever any of those arent humans so it wont happend besides an alien in this game everyone will play him since hes sooo fast in the movies and in the game, climb will be soo broken since alien can climb walls etc so no

  • AshleyWB
    AshleyWB Member Posts: 4,061

    The thing about facehuggers is that they come from those eggs. If you have those facehuggers you need a means to destroy these eggs. This would mean flamethrower or Molotov given or craftable by survivors.

    I am in favour of a killer whose counter is aggression, just as long as the killer can also be devastating if you have no means to defend yourself.

  • AshleyWB
    AshleyWB Member Posts: 4,061

    A Xenomorph doesn't have to climb. It can make up for it in many other ways. I feel like the alien should be a slow movement speed but it gains momentum whilst moving making it go faster.

    It's a incredibly strong killer which can pig crawl really fast and ambush attack maybe.

    There are so many options you can take. As long as they respect what the Xenomorph is and provide something different then I'm fine.

    I feel like they can get creative on this though. It depends on how capable the devs are making a power so fresh and new.

    Nope. The Entity has about as much reason to bring a Xenomorph into its realm as it would to make a Killer out of a swarm of bees.

    Can we just kill this thread man? Alien in this game would be stupid... as would Hellrasier.

    This is more for "slashers" overall. That's the idea at least.

    It's not about alien science fiction space crap.

    Chucky, Ghostface or any original killer would be great. I would prefer more original killers.

    I love the "doesn't fit this trend that I've decided is critical therefore it doesn't work in the lore".


    The "lore" for this game is a framing device that fits literally everything.

    Completely right.

    Freddy wouldn't fit the lore because he's in your dreams.

    Literally everything is possible.

    No I do, but having stuff with space theme's is just silly. Pinhead might be okay, but humanoid things is what we need. Thing's with a realism touch at least.

    I would love Predator in this game, but I don't think it would feel right.

    Just throwing in whatever powerful "cool" killing thing doesn't mean it will be good.

    It is possible to work around the lore, but that doesn't make the lore dismissable. Unless there is a valid reason why the Entity would bring a random instinctive beast into its realm as a Killer, I don't see it fitting.

    If some of you were in charge of new chapters you'll actually have another swamp map, a person made from trees as killer and a slap as the killers power.

    Boring where is your imagination and how can you say that's fun when you'll later complain saying it's boring and samey.

    If I were in charge, the next Killer would be Miss Trunchbull. ๐Ÿ˜œ

    I'm not really a huge Xenomorph person. I'm not against the idea, but I'm not for it either. Although, to be fair, I feel the same way about Jason, Pinhead, and Ghostface.

  • AshleyWB
    AshleyWB Member Posts: 4,061

    I share this view. Except an original Mrs trunchbull rip off .

    Sometimes you gotta delve deeper and understand how much more change can come. New content should add a layer to the game and not just a chunk on the side.

    I wish there was more behind some previous chapters. They are recycled killers maps and perks which have been tweaked enough to be deemed different.

    Why I'm so for an Alien Chapter is because it is a leap into an humongous pit of potential content.

    Naw, i can only see Predator being brought into the DBD realm because killers are brought into it willingly or not.

    The whole concept of predator is he's a hunter hunting game, kind of like how killers are hunting for the entity.

    But anyways the entity could just grab a young predator during it's hunting trials and each map can pretty much play out like the "Predators" movie.


    Dude i'd honestly nut if i could just hear the Predator heat vision swap sound effect in this game

    "SCHWAAP~"

    The Xenomorph is technically part human and the Entity has brought non humans into it's realm before such as The Clowns horse, in any case a Solo Survivor DLC with just Ripley would be more then sufficient enough for me.

    I NEED MORE

    Xenomorph cosmetics could be ones from each movie too.

    The next licensed killer should be Jason vorhees, now stop before you say oh he's under copyright protection. Your wrong most of the Jason are under the same copyright except for the one used in Friday the 13th ix (9), hes rights are owned by another company and is a way we could get him to come to DBD then we can finish the dream team of killers.

    Also I don't understand how anyone would think jeepers creepers would make a good killer, devs said we will not get a flying killer and he's over all not that great. Just my thoughts on that.

    about as much sense as Ash running around in a Hawaiin shirt with a puppet.

    Lore does not matter to most of us. If it did, Ash wouldnt even be in the game ;)
