What are your most favourite reworks/ changes/ killers of this year? What do you wish for the next?
Hey guys, I think it´s time for some positivity and love in this forum :D
There has been a lot of nice changements this year, I am really happy about. I think there has never been so many changes like this year. Would like to hear what you boys and girls think about :)
Please be so kind and don't start any discussions or hateful speeches here. Everyone has his owh opinion and can post it here. Thanks in advance and have a nice time <3
To start with I dont know what my favourite changement is, cuz I love all the new killers, the map and perk reworks. If I had to choose one, Id decide for the doctor rework. Since his release the doctor is one of my favourite killers and since his rework I like to play with and against him even more *-*

My favorite change was Leatherface, hoping we will get Chucky next

my favorite changes were map makings like springwood (though I still miss the old graphic) and the new animation of generators when interacting and having come to the game at the 4th anniversary event <3

The update to Lightborn is my favorite. After dedicated servers became a thing, I suddenly started having issues avoiding blinds; Lightborn just makes life easier.

I think the rework to Ormond was actually a surprise highlight for me. I know other players have run into problems with it spawning way too many deadzones, but I've been lucky to get some less-borked versions of it and have had some really fun (and close) trials there as both roles.
Considering Ormond used to be an absolute misery of a map for most killers, this feels like a really solid change to me.
Killer of the Year is probably Blight. He's pretty fun to play, pretty fun to play against, and has a high enough skill ceiling to remain a pretty exciting character to learn even a few hours in.

I totally forgot: The most thing I wish for the next year is the MMR system and some map balancing and fair pallet spawns for both roles <3
0 -
my favorite changes were probably the mori nerf and the WGLF buff- 1 from both sides
for next year, im hoping that breakable walls will be reworked. imo they just dont create diverse gameplay and they staple in boring and braindead loops that shouldn’t be in the game.

Doc rework. While I liked old doc I find the new one a lot better and much better to play in higher ranks.
1 -
The perk changes from the last mid-chapter patch gives me a lot of hope for the future. It feels like the developers are actually willing to bring some interesting and risky perk design into their game, most notably with the Blood Pact change.

I am excited to see what changes we will face in the future: D I hope all your dreams come true <3 Some love to demogorgon would be also nice <3
0 -
Well good news, Demogorgon was confirmed to be the next killer to be getting tweaks after Clown in the latest Q+A stream.

Leatherface.
Even though I hate going against him now because I still haven't figured out what to do to counter him besides jumping a window, and even then you never know.
I want a big bug fix patch. Also visual updates for the characters. Unless they are going to look like they did in that Christmas trail. Because no thanks.

I liked bubba rework, and I'm excited for clowns. Hopefully plague gets looked at soon
0 -
Yeah, I agree with u guys! Bubba´s rework is also great. I mean he has become very powerful at chasing people down without being overpowered <3 I never played him a lot before the rework, but now he is quite fun :3
0 -
Yes, I am very excited about it <333
0 -
Id say don´t be too greedy with pallets :3 I mean he is nice at chasing u down or destroying pallets quickly, but therefore he is missing some mobility :3
0 -
Favourite was probably Ruin. Love the way it works now and think it was an excellent change. I'd say Doctor was also a really good one.
The rework I want is Hag. I don't think she'll be touched for a very very lon time but it's the dream for me.
0 -
True, but he doesn;t really care about breaking pallets and if he didn't use too many charges we'll just be on you again. lol
I dunno, I just haven't had any luck against him lately. 🤷♀️

Several things:
Mori Nerf (finally, it only took them years to see that they were the most broken thing on the Killer side)
Blight, since he is a very well designed Killer and he was a relief after the Killers before him were just like "yeah, you lose in a chase if the Killer is not stupid, regardless what you do"
New Gen Animations.
What I wish for:
Key Rework (IMO if Moris and Keys are reworked the biggest problems on either side are dealt with) as soon as possible
Rework of dumb Killer Add Ons (Tombstone Piece, Pinky Finger, Iri Heads, Exhaustion Add Ons...)
Hag Rework to make her fun to play as (at least for me, lol) and fun to play against (like, give her more chance to chase Survivors but remove her oppressive gameplay around hooks)

i got nothing XD would of said freddy rework but that was last year. Just got back into it and while it’s cool we are getting some improvements and even a killer rework...I am a little confused about why freddy is getting nerfs...I’m not mad, just a little confused.
I would like for next year is just,
-Updating the soundtrack release so we got all the music that’s been produced over the years.
-Reworking some killer perks like most of deathslinger’s perks to be less bad. I know not every perk has to be gold, but it be nice to just have a more diverse perk meta. Plus Freddy’s perk blood warden seriously needs a rework as the meta changed like crazy with the end game collapse and it’s pretty much a garbage perk at this point. Remember me also as it...didn’t fix the issues remember me has, it just nerfed the debuff and lessened the stacks you get. That doesn’t make me wanna tunnel my obsession less.

I like the Mori nerf very much. Now I can equip them without this feeling of dread because I ruin somebodys game after the second hook. Also I think that Pyramide Head is a great killer. His chase music rocks, his abilities are fitting (cage is better then hook struggle) and he was just a good translation from his own game into this. Also he fits well into the world of DbD with the hooks and the entity so even lorewise its very good to have him here. Silent Hill fans always adored this guy and now we finaly get to play as him and against him.
I would like to see a big bug fix first. Bugs are unfun and should be purged as much as possible.
I also would love to see more perks that reward or punish certain gameplay: Perks that reward killers for not camping or tunneling (Make you Choice and BBQ are fine, please more), Survivors for not genrushing and perks or mechanics that punish these things (faster hook progress when the killer goes away / chases somebody, slower hook progress when he stands beside you).
And finaly: A good rework for Spirit. I love to play her but I get the complains about this killer. There should be more interaction while maintaining her "Ghost with a grude"-fantasy.

Billy personally. I like his new add ons and the Lore associated with them. Overheat isn’t annoying and his new scream fits his character well
0 -
Bubba was easily my favourite rework. My favourite all-new killer was Blight, definitely. And my favourite change was... Were toolboxes this year? Wait, no, almsot forgot about Mori's. Mori's are my favourite change.
0 -
I guess toolboxes had been changed last year :3 And I agree, all these reworks of moris, insta heals, toolboxes, ruin were good and nessecary :)

I think I'd like to see another Bubba change, mostly so players can't build him into a near-impossible-to-escape monster. People have mentioned pallets and jumping windows, which are valid escape tactics, but if they down you in one hit, Iron Grasp/Agitation their way to a hook, throw you on, and park nearby with Insidious, you need the devil's luck to get back off.

Hillbilly is my favourite. He was one of the most unfun killers to play against and now he's kinda balanced. Funny thing i suggested pretty much same overheat mechanic earlier and was very happy to see it going on live servers. Next killer i want to be changed is huntress and her unfun hatchets
0 -
How was Billy unfun?
0 -
Infinite oneshots and mobility. Even if you juke him and avoid his chainsaw he'll just use it again. Now he's eventually have to m1 you
0 -
Yeah, Billy isnt that strong anymore, but I LOVE his roar - His roar is why Im still playing him^^ And I really miss to play against him :'( Happy new year btw <3

Things I really liked:
The mori nerf
Things I'm hopeful for:
Key rework
Plague to get her issues addressed
1 -
I loved the Doctor rework. At first I was terrified that they were going to butcher him but once I saw the PTB footage and then actually got to play as him, I was overjoyed. I couldn't believe that this was the Doctor. And then they buffed him when the next chapter came out! This has got to be the best update BHVR did to Killer.
I'm excited to see the Clown, Demo, and Wraith changes and key reworks.
0 -
I also would like to see some AddOn and perk reworks on both sides :D

I love the new darker totems on PS5. They are harder to find which was a long time coming.
My least favorite killers are Wraith and Freddy. I cannot fully say if it's who plays them. I moan when I see them. Maybe they need some finesse?
I love the twins. They make me laugh even when killing me. It's such a great dynamic that is new.
I love Undying. I know alot of you hate it. It forces survivors to respect side objectives, which is needed. I'm a survivor main.
Happy New Year!
