    One of its abilities or perks would have to be acid blood, which would give the survivor a delayed injury every 3-5 pallet stuns or after a DS. Maybe the injury occures 20-45 sec after it triggers? Maybe they have an opportunity to do something to "cleanse" it before it triggers, like infection?

    Maybe, but having it trigger on DS would also encourage toxic play and people deliberately trying to proc DS. It turns it into a win-win for the killer. Free hook because no DS, or perk activates.

    A killer/survivor hybrid

    It would be fun to see a hybrid killer/ survivor

    Killer's perks and survivor's perks are opposites of each others

    The lore would be something like the inner struggle of someone...

    Now I really want to type out my idea for me being in the game... HAHAhahaha

    Ghostbusters, Jurassic Park (I know they're weird but they would be cool for maps and stuff) and Beetlejuice would be cool.

    Sadako from Ring.

    No idea how she’s work though, because she doesn’t do much in the films.

    (IT) Pennywise

    (TheRing) Samara

    I would love the entity as a killer, i know that might sound silly.

    But how cool would it be if the entity took a humanoid-ish figure and started to join the trials to get work done itself.

    It would be a dark and tall figure, slightly creature-like (kind of like the demogorgan) but it would have a terrifying face.

    No idea what the power would be, but lore wise i think the entity deciding to get its hands dirty would be epic.

    I want a classic Vampire whose power changes depending on whether or not they feed on downed survivors.

    They could spend blood reserves to change into a bat and fly, or use it for some sort of chase power/instadown.

    Can't really think of any Killers i truly desire to have in here, but the closest to that would be Left 4 Dead 2's Spitter.

    My wishlist:

    1, 2 and 3.) The Horror (Jason Voorhees, once he gets out of court). I see him as doubled down Tier 1 Myers. The ultimate jump-scare killer. Nurse-like movement speed, but zero (or maybe 2-3 M) horror radius out of chase (during chase, make it stupid like 32m), with a sort of spirit walk ability that cannot be initiated or cancelled if the survivor has line of sight on you. And by this, I mean whatever direction the survivors camera is pointed. This gives the illusion of him never teleporting - he always disappears and appears out of the Survivor player's line of sight, as if he walked there. Not sure this is viable, but it would be great if they could pull it off without it being unfun/unfair to play against.

    4.) The Vampire (Dracula, or an original killer that's a vampire) - We don't have a vampire killer. Vampires are icons of the horror genre. They can turn into a bat or rolling mist to cover areas quickly, they start weak but get powerful. I would also love a mechanism where you can actually charm a survivor into helping him. If a survivor is looking at you in mid-chase (or their camera is pointed at you), you can use the Charm power to compel the Charmed state on a Survivor. Essentially, it'll force a choice on a survivor - they must do something to sabatage his team within 60 seconds. A few options could be inflicting wounds on another survivor, inflicting self-harm by one state, or sabataging 20% worth of progress on one or more gens. Charmed state ends early if the Vampire decides to hit them or Charms someone else. If they choose not to do anything, in 60 seconds, the vampire gets a strong permeant buff to his speed and swing recovery times.

    5.) The Horde - Yes, as a killer, you literally play a "Horde" of Zombies. Again, just given how iconic zombies have become to the horror genre. Imagine its a worm that's like 8-12 meters long... it's a traditional M1 killer, but one of its abilities, it can change which side is its front and back, forcing a lot of uncomfortable 50/50s during loops, since half of some loop at any time is occupied by the Horde. Also it would be the art departments magnum opus. lol

    6.) Pinhead - An iconic horror villain we could stand to gain.

    Let’s just say, I’m a huge fan of licensed content. There’s so many that I’d like to see in the game. This is in no particular order, like, at all.

    1. Nemesis/RE3
    2. Jason/f13
    3. Xenomorph/Alien
    4. Springtrap
    5. Death Angles/A Quiet Place
    6. Clock Tower
    7. The Ring
    8. The Grudge
    9. Psycho
    10. The Thing
    11. Candyman
    12. Reanimator
    13. Creature From The Black Lagoon

    And much much more, there’s really only one license that’s a hard “absolutely not” from me. That’s Jeepers Creepers.

    OMG, yes to Xenomorph. That type of killer is basically what this game was designed to host.

    Shapeshifter as werewolf that can attack and a regular surv without terror radious

  • TheStabbiNAngeL
    TheStabbiNAngeL Member Posts: 1,264

    Chucky could be a stealth killer with a terror radius of 24 meters,moving at 4.4 ms he could be like Oni raged induced everytime he misses an attack inside a chase his rage meter could fills a little.When he gets stunned or flashlight blinded this could increase it alot leading to a devastating one shot ability, to make his power change in gameplay they could add an add-on such as the Amulet of Damballa like a mori class which could allow you to take control of another survivor for faster game play but no one shot,you could only preform Damballas Chant though once per match

    Next would I would want The Predator only thing I could think of right now is him being able to track survivor's footprints when using thermal vision footprints would disappear after 30 seconds I guess.It would be cool if you could use the smart disc but it would have to be remote controlled .

    I kinda just want more video game license deals to happen in general to be honest.

    Those are some of the ones I wanted.

    Scarecrow: Basic movement speed, 32 meter terror radius. Can transform into stationary Pole mode to reduce terror radius to 16 meters and can put up to three fake scarecrows with 16 meter terror radii. They can be taken down but he gets them back every 60 seconds one at a time. His addons give him additional scarecrows, reduce his base TR, increase his Pole and fake scarecrow TR, reduce the cooldown on setting another fake, and an iridescent that grants hemorrhage and broken to survivors that stay in his terror radius or that of his facsimiles for too long.

    Siren: Can copy the sound effects of one injured survivor by activating Siren's Call. Siren's Call removes her terror radius but decreases her speed slightly. She can teleport between broken totems in order to enhance her mobility. Her addons give her bonuses to base stats in certain conditions, granting mangled, and an iridescent that occasionally highlights uninjured survivors when they get too far away from her(like an Object of Obsession but with a minimum range of 48 meters and only if they're not crouching).

    I think it'd be cool if there was a Vampire killer who could use a special ability to attach bats to survivors up to 24 meters, his terror radius, and they fly around the survivor like a crow. It would give him tracking ability and he could get relatively close enough to survivors to begin with. Also a mist form that lets him glide through vaults and pallets but causes an attack delay so he can't just hit every time he goes through.

    And lastly, the Terminator. I originally hated the idea because I thought it would turn it into an action game, but after watching the movie and hearing his theme music I could easily see him being in it and I'm surprised he's not already. The artist Mr.Envy gives him a TR of 24, maybe that's fair. I'd give him 32 meter TR. Either way his ability could be when a survivor is in his TR he gains Termination tokens slowly. While in a chase he gains Termination tokens quickly. The Terminator can expend a token which grants special effects for 4 seconds(causing his eyes to light up red): He cannot be stunned(but a pallet will force him on the other side of it) to include perks, he gains a quicker vaulting speed(25%), he can make break actions more quickly (20% stackable). It rewards the player for tactically speeding up his actions and helping to make chases less painful. It does mean he has a built in whispers however, but I think it just fits his character to have that. His addons could increase the speed he gains termination tokens, increase the timer his ability stays active such as an iridescent that causes each token to last 12 seconds, and increase the various effects of his ability(an uncommon that further decreases break action time, a yellow that increases his vault speed slightly further,etc). He could have perks named from the first movie, things from that line "It can't be bargained with, it can't be reasoned with. It doesn't feel pain, or remorse, or fear and it absolutely will not stop. Ever! Until you are dead". Maybe I'm getting greedy but I really want a perk named "Until you are dead".

    I like the idea of a killer who has multiple powers. You know how where the item slot is for survivors, there is the killers power slot but you cant change it. I think it would be awesome if there was a killer with multiple powers, making the killer like multiple killers in 1 and survivors never knowing what to expect

    Oh, and going against the Terminator should have an achievement. If you point at a body and you are in the Terminator's terror radius and you get the unhook then you unlock "It can be bargained with" and another for pointing at generators called "It can be reasoned with".

    Spoilers for Danganronpa but

    Mukuro Ikusaba. The sixteenth student, lying hidden somewhere in this school. The one they call the Ultimate Despair. Watch out for her.

    I've even dreamt up a concept of her as a killer with help from a friend of mine who plays the game. Dubbed, The Fenrir.

    Weapon: Combat Knife

    Movement Speed: 4.6m/s (115%) (normal stance)/4.4 m/s (110%) (defensive stance)

    Terror Radius: 32 meters

    Height: Medium

    Ability: Mukuro has two stances, a normal stance and a defensive stance. Press Left Control (or whatever it is on the console versions) to switch between stances. It takes 0.5s to switch stances. In Normal Stance

    4.6 m/s movement speed

    Press M2 for a lunging attack similar to Demogorgon’s

    Slightly increased cooldown on missed attacks

    Slightly increased window vaulting speed

    In Defensive Stance

    4.4 m/s movement speed

    Pressing M2 at the right timing will prevent a pallet drop and stun

    Slightly decreased cooldown on missed attacks

    Slightly decreased window vaulting speed

    Perks

    Battle Trance: When pushed to your limits, your mind goes on auto-pilot, making your speed and reflexes increase. When Tier 1 of Bloodlust activates, your attack speed and lunge range increases by 5/10/15%. Does not stack with like perks. (Level 30 perk)

    Hex: Sadism: A hex rooting its power on despair. When a generator is completed, earn a token. For each token, survivors’ healing and repair speed is reduced by 3/6/9%. Stacks up to three tokens. Effects do not stack with similar perks. The effects persist as long as the hex totem is still active. (Level 35 perk) (Definitely going to replace this with something else fyi, not sure what though)

    Deception: You've immersed yourself amongst your peers and tricked them into thinking you are an ally. After hooking a Survivor, gain the Undetectable status effect for 20/30/40 seconds or until you take an offensive action. (Level 40 perk)

    But I sure do know my slashy boi

    I've seen a lot of call for Pennywise, but are there any Stephen King fans who want to see a Misery chapter with Annie Wilkes as killer and Paul Sheldon as survivor? (definite perk name for Annie would be "#1 Fan")

    I'd also kind of like a Silence of the Lambs chapter with Hanibal Lecter as killer and Clarice Starling as survivor. (definite perk name for Lecter would be "Quid Pro Quo")

    Maybe I'm showing my age with these two, but they might be fun.

    This:

    Not just because I created it and put so much work into it, but because I believe that the unique game mechanics it introduces would be a blast to play with. Aside from Blight, most new killers released since Plague feel like combinations of other killers (Oni feels like a combo of Billy and Shape, Ghost Face is a combo of Pig and Shape, etc.), and because of this it feels like the devs are running out of ideas. With these little monsters, the Red Light/Green light mechanic, and the ambush focused gameplay they were built for, I feel they would introduce a fresh feeling original killer that everyone would have fun with. If you have the time, please give it a read, if not then I've also included a TL;DR version for convenience, and all creative criticism/feedback is welcome.

    Original vampire

    Original werewolf

    An elementalist killer maybe

    Also they should think about cyberpunk coming out soon and release a cyberpunk killer, with a flamethrower or something
