New Killer idea

Would a shapeshifter that mimics survivors appearances and uses a wraith like decloak to attack work as a New killer?

    Hey Sally, The devs have said this would be a cool idea and they would love to do it, but no plans yet to implement that.

    Cool idea, but this killer would be crushed by SWF.

    As awesome as this idea is, SWF would absolutely destroy it

    Unfortunately you are right. They would have to get creative on how to fool swf groups

    I would love to see the Wendigo in the game. However (spoiler alert)



















































































    The psycho wouldn't work cause it's just Josh and he never killed anybody

    What would needed to be put in place to help this type of killer against swf?

    I kinda thought of something like that. But only with a Chucky the Killer Doll killer, who could possess a survivor being downed and then being snapped out of the survivor after 20 or 30 seconds. In that time he could like stab other survivors as the survivor with the survivor perks.

    Imagine possessing a Claudette who has Empathy or Bond and Sprint Burst running after you xD

    He was psychotic and did go overboard at times. He could see this all as a huge "prank"

    It would make every game game against that killer very tense and exciting in my opinion

    This idea has already been suggested by someone else. I don’t see how it would get past SWF though because they’ll automatically know if they’re not one of the group. 

    I actually look forward to see a killer like this though..
