    I'm surprised there hasn't been a vampire killer yet

    I think they sort of avoid the classic movie monsters and aim more for slasher killers. Sure, you could make a Vampire that operates similarly, though Oni kinda already does that with the blood orbs.

    Alien Chapter. With Xenomorph killer and Ellen Ripley as survivor. Amanda Ripley from Alien:Isolation as Legendary character. Jones the cat as an AI based perk. The Nostromo as the map. New survivor item smoke bomb kinda based on Alien:Isolation.

    Why? Because Alien is a very iconic and heavily influential horror science fiction movie and a classic. If Dead by Daylight sees itself as the Walk of Fame of Horror, this is definitely a great candidate. And as seen with Demogorgon (and Krampus and Minotaurus skins) the killer doesn’t have to be human, and the Xenomorph is humanoid enough to get the animations done.

    Vampires, mummies, pirates, etc. There's a lot of killers that they haven't done yet, the idea of a slime monster would be cool.

    I totally agree and like those things, but like I said, it just seems like BHVR wants slasher movie killers and not classic horror monsters.

    For licensed the main 2 id like are

    1. Resident evil - i just love the series and it feels so natural adding it especially since silent hill is in already

    2. Until dawn- love the game and thematically it could fit well. Having a motion based sering killer could be very interesting and survivors from until dawn could easily fit in with dbd.

    A chapter where they stop adding useless perks that do exactly the same thing as old ones but just a little better, aka the buffs those old ones should have.

    In terms of licensed Killers, I'd really like to see Resident Evil, Until Dawn or Five Nights at Freddies. I think they're all bring Killers with interesting mechanics and perks to the game.

    In terms of general, I'd really like to see a priest be added as a survivor. I was kind of surprised to learn that a priest/vicar wasn't the Survivor in the chapter with Plague cos it could've been an interesting contrast - the Killer whose faith led them to darkness and a Survivor whose faith drives them to seek the light.

    I think we should get jack nicholson with the axe

    1 starter perk called heres johnny - smashes through objects 200% faster

    another perk could be called the shining - reflects 50% of blindness back at the survivor

    :L

    For a non licensed killer I could see a scarecrow type killer being interesting. One that has scarecrows mounted on the map with the killer being able to pose as a mounted scarecrow. Would be very stealth focused. Have a farmer be the survivor (which im super surprised we havent had much of a traditional farmer type character yet).

    Demons, just so we can have Tony The Pimp! :D

    There's even scope for Hank the Gym instructor cosmetics from Demons2!!!!! The head would be the same, but I'd pay top dollar just for the extra beads of sweat!!!

    King of the Hill chapter.

    Hank comes after you with propane and propane accessories. Every time he gets pallet stunned, he does his trademark "Gwuhuhuh".

    Only if Bobby is the survivor and Hank says "Damnit Bobby" whenever he sees him

    Id really love Scooby doo themed cosmetic set release even if it doesn't explicitly mention scooby doo but once that heavily imply and resemble them

    I can't believe people don't demand Black Christmas chapter. C'mon, it's classic!

    The Shining. I know Jack Torrance is just a dude, but I love The Shining. He'd be called "The Caretaker" obviously.

    Licensed: Fnaf, Outlast, RE ( Jack Baker, or Mr. X), F13

    In general: A pirate killer with a map ( I hope the next killer isn't a Pirate pls), Werewolf killer, Civil war, WW2, a jinn, or a mummy

    A killer that wire the exit gates explosives so that the cocky little ****s leave staright away.

    In an seriousness, pirate or medieval theme would be cool. Plenty of perk ideas such as "Mutiny" "Walk the plank" or "Take a knee" Sworsdman"

  • Sacre

    Resident Evil for sure


    Lemme pallet stun a G monstrosity it would be funny

    I'd want a chapter full of bug fixes and balance changes. The game has plenty of content right now, they should stop bloating the game with more perks & skins, stop wasting months on something that only the minority would like (such as ruining the UI), and instead give us something everyone would be thankful for. A game that works as intended.

    Licended: Buffy the Vampire Slayer

    In General: A fire related chapter with a pyromaniac killer

  • SnakeSound222

    Resident Evil with Nemesis as the Killer and Alien with a Xenomorph Killer.

    Not really a horror show, but I'd love a Primeval chapter with a Future Predator as a killer. Being hunted by something that quick, that deadly, and that you literally cannot hide from bwcause it hears everything around it? Nightmare fuel.

    Edit: Also, John Constantine paragraph. Matt Ryan version, because that's basically the character from the comics.

    A killer with a flamethrower as his main power.

    Flamethrowers are among the most frightening and evil weapons ever used in human history, it would fit a DbD killer very well. And of course he has to wear a cool gas mask along with it.

    That would be cool and could be very unique. But I think they already said they don’t want to create a killer as powerful as the Nurse again...

    If I had to go with something that seemed reasonable, a mage that controls the elements in different ways.

    If I could go with anything, The Scissor Man, Jennifer Simpson and the Mansion from the first Clock Tower game.

    for licensed chapters; Bioshock. I want to run around as a big daddy drilling into stuff in the watery hell of rapture.

    for original chapters; I'd love to see more horror takes on normally non-horror genres like with Deathslinger was for cowboys.Pirates, Astronauts, Vikings, knights, etc. I'd also love to see more monstrous killers, especially a non-bipedal killer. There was mention of a giant spider killer in the early days of DBD that wasn't done due to costly animations, but I'd love to see them make an attempt now.

    I really wish more survivors weren't only from the modern era. A survivor from the distant past would be really cool and different. A survivor with a completely different sense of aesthetics than the rest of the cast. I know the horror trope is "ancient horror unleashed on everyday world" but it'd be a nice exception to the rule. The killer and survivor could even be from the same far-flung era, having continued their chase into the fog.
