What if the new killer could make himself/herself look like one of the survivors in the match?

Itd be really nice to not even trust some of your survivor buddies at first, let me know what you think!

    The Killer would need more than just disguising as they would honestly be the weakest Killer with just that power.

    Load into the match and you simply avoid other Survivors until you know for certain it is or isn't that Killer. If it is, you continue to avoid Survivors and then their power becomes almost useless. It'd be very situational.

    Then there is SWF.

    Looking like a survivor. Nah, SWF would crush it and after a while good survivors will just be able to tell it's not one of the group.

    A killer that can somehow take control of a survivor. That would be really neat.

    This idea has been suggested a billion times already, and the death argument is that SWF will quickly figure out if they are the killer and make the power completely useless.

    ->great idea.

    ->i dont think SWF would kill it like everyone told you, just like the pig that killer can have two abilities and switching between survivors skins very fast would make it harder to spot.

    ->i didnt read it a billion times

    ->There is a wishlist subforum for this kind of posts

    How about a killer that has hell hounds as his helper

    SWF will spread the killer's buttcheeks and take turns buttplugging him with flashlights

    This is an interesting idea. However, it seems like a very weak killer tbh. This is good for RANDOMS but not for SWF. SWF will be able to tell immedatley if it’s one of their buds or not.

    I approve of this, it would be very cool but I don’t see how the killer mechanics are gonna work for this guy.

    Give the Mimic Killer the ability to create a random Killer illusion of their choice.

    You don't even need to consider SWF in regards to making their power useless. Simply assuming it's them and avoiding Survivors until you know for sure which Killer it is kills their power. You can easily do that as a solo player.

    Avoiding to be spotted by survivors is actually pretty fun!!! i would love to play like this, give him another power and it would rock both sides

    the devs already stated, that they had no interest in making a killer like that... he wouldnt be very strong either...

    "Hey dude I'm coming to help you on that gen"
    "ok"
    Now both know that the other isn't a killer

    "Hey you coming to help me with this gen?"
    "What gen? I'm saving this guy of a hook"
    Now the guy on the gen knows that the survivor incoming isn't trustworthy and will run away.

    Or to give you the TL:DR: the guy is countered by SWF, which is either partially or fully present in 70% of games.

    I don't trust "buddies" I only save them for points and +reps on steam. Neither do I trust the killer. I only get chased to get even MORE points.

    Wouldnt work due to swf, swf ruined this for everyone. That mechanic can literally be nullified

    Hey any credit here if you want to see the whole idea go to my account and check it out! I might have two.

    SWF yes that would crush it but still how would they know its the killer. If you have played Deceit then when in doubt always lie.

    The devs said it would be cool but swf kills it, they tell each other when they meet up. Powers to be made will be made with swf in mind. If swf hard counters it, it won't come in. A killer with a useless or nullified ability might as we just be a survivor.

    they said so in one of their streams. Also, when you think of it, all this killer could do is getting closer to the survivors, but after that he'd be just another wraith trying to catch up to them...

    For example, you see them. Then you can continue to avoid Survivors to render the Killer power useless.
