Hey y'all haven't really seen a discussion about new item ideas that we would like seen incorporated into the game. Personally I think seeing something like a camera or phone that can blind the killer with the flash would be cool. I'm interested in seeing what ideas you guys have for new items for both killers and survivors. Also not related to items but I think having an arcade map where you fix arcade games instead of generators would also be cool!

    So basically a firecracker?

    With the new item system, making them so they're not destroyed when used up, it would be interesting if there was a flashlight type that could be recharged when it's entirely depleted. Give it an extremely short battery life, and make it so when it's fully drained, the survivor can take a few seconds to recharge it by, say, shaking it or cranking it. Make it so they're locked in an animation for a while, have the item make some noise, and have them mash a button to recharge it fully before it can be used at all. If it's not fully recharged, have it passively bleed off charges after a few seconds so survivors can't pocket a charge like they can a lot of other stuff.


    It certainly wouldn't be meta, but at least it would be a choice. I know some people would like to have the option to have an item that can be used the whole match, even if it's not especially good. Kinda like how people still choose to use Self Care.
