If you could revert a change to a character, perk, or map, what would you choose?
If I could revert a change to a character, perk, or map I'd revert the Hillbilly nerf. I miss old hillbilly, he's nothing more than a sad shell of what he used to be, but what would you guys revert if you had the chance?

Hillbilly and either autohaven or macmillan

I'd probably revert the Freddy rework and instead just buff his old power.
12 -
I have a very long list of changes that I would revert, starting with Freddy's rework. I miss Old Freddy, my sweet and precious Old Freddy.

The game map, before it was annoying, now it's straight up "kill me please i don't wanna play here"
7 -
Revert the removal of respawning hook regardless on hangman trick
2 -
Right now, just Hillbilly. His addons are ridiculous and/or not strong.
3 -
I stopped playing Billy a long time ago but, yeah, probably the Overheat meter. That said the Add on nerf was 100% justified. I miss playing against him, he's always been fun to play against.
I'd remove Hawkins outright.
I'd revert the Freddy buff, I used to main him before the change and while he was incredibly weak he was fun. I don't find new Freddy challenging or enjoyable to play.
The HUD. I still think its awful compared to the old one.

Killer: Easy, Freddy's rework. His older self was way more fun, I miss him so much.
Map: If I could, I'd revert pretty much every single graphic rework, as they all suck in my opinion. If I had to pick one in particular though, it'd either be Auto Haven or Crotus Prenn.
Perk: This ones kinda tough, but I'd go with the Hangman's Trick nerf from a little while ago. It had the potential to be a decent tracking perk, but the devs decided to nerf it back into the nothingness.

From most to least wanted?
Freddy (to first Freddy)
The Game
Billy
Lucky Break
The Asylum realm
Badham

I'd definitely want Old Freddy back at the top of my list. I miss him so much :(
I also hate the Crotus Prenn rework. I don't know if its my eyes, or the map itself, or my tv, but everything just blends together and makes it impossible to see further than 10 feet in front of me.
I also want Old Billy back. As a killer who never runs addons, this is just such an unnecessary nerf. Not saying some addons didn't need a nerf, cause they did, but basekit Billy was fine.

Are we allowed to modify things in any way, or does it have to be a hard rollback with no changes? Because I reaaally want to "revert" the change made to Pig's RBTs during endgame, but I also want to modify things so RBT + EGC =/= miserable experience
3 -
For me it's really simple. Remove the rush forward from dead hard. I hate Dead Hard when used for distance. It took more skill to time it as the killer swings. Now it's just a brain dead hit E to get to a pallet or window.
2 -
Freddy is an obvious one but I would also revert clown’s visual rework. His pink bow tie looks stupid especially on his prestige set
2 -
Oh I guess..
- Hex RUIN.
- Have both the NEW and OLD maps in the game with and without the changes. (I like them both).
- NEW MOON BOUQUET (it was fun and made this game SCARY)
- ECG - instead Be a GAME TIMER (60 minutes to play the match) .
- Old Freddy wasn't bad.
- Old Doctor was more fun
- Old Hatch rules.
- Old sprint burst.
I didn't mind this game on launch tbh.

Old freddy bubba hillbilly nurse and doctor
old maps and animations
And old events PLEASE WE NEED THEM BACK!
1 -
Freddy and Macmillan.
2 -
I wouldn't revert any maps, because all the new maps look great.
Perk? Unrelenting. *evil laugh*
Killer? Hillbilly, just so we stop hearing about it.
2 -
Freddy. Return him to how he was 2 years ago.
2 -
Old Billy
I honestly don't care about new releases, i just want my boy back.
3 -
i would 100% get Billy back to his old glory.
sadly that also means keeping the old Add Ons (which were kinda busted), but ffs thats a small price to pay!
1 -
Old Freddy and old Hillbilly.

I cant decide between reverting coldwind or the game.... my reasons are as follows:
In the new coldwind farm map the devs made pallet loops larger and therefore stronger also, it is very difficult to see scratchmarks with how bright it is on that map.
In the game there are far too many pallets in general (aproximately 30) with too many safe pallets and a total of FIVE (5) GOD PALLETS.
Both of these maps annoy the hell out of me with the new changes and i want them fixed or reverted.

Easily old Freddy. I miss the big guy.

I'd remove the tome. As a solo survivor, it completely destroyed the game for me. It's hard enough to get teammates willing to play and not just hide the entire time, but going into the game now where literally all three teammates have NO intention of doing anything but throwing so they can get a challenge done is what made me quit. I came back a few days ago to see how bad the game was these days. I quit sometime before Blight came out, I believe it was. If I couldn't remove the tome, the unnecessary map changes. Old Autohaven. Yamaoka Estate. Coldwin. Crotus Prenn. Why fix what's actually broken in the game when you can destroy things that are perfectly fine?

Billy boi

Give Pyramid Head his ass back

Killer: Hillbilly and Doctor. Hillbilly was fine before his nerf, he just needed a few of his add-ons changed. Old Doctor was also more fun to go against than the current one.
Survivor: Kate. I miss her old hair.
Perk: Lucky Break. I feel like that old Lucky Break was more useful than the newer one.
Map: The Game (Gideon Meat Plant). Gideon is one of the worst maps in the game now and I miss the look of the old Gideon map.

The previous version of Balanced Landing. It was awful, got buffed, was fun, then nerfed back to awful. I miss the stagger reduction.
2 -
For powers, I'd revert Nurse and get rid of the added cooldown.
For appearance, I'd revert Kate to get back her old hair.
For maps, I'd revert the Coldwind maps because they're bright as the sun and the corn blindness has me dropping every chase and going afk early on each time I end up there.

kinda wish they left Surveillance untouched, even if it was bugged no one complained about it, and the perk was 10x better for it.
Clown's Exhaustion addon, afaik Huntress was able to keep hers.

Revert basekit change for Billy and revert the Autohaven update. It used to be my 2nd favourite realm beside MacMillan and now it's pretty much down there with crappy maps.
New Coldwind is now on 2nd place. MacMillan and Coldwin were pretty successful but I just miss the old ambience and look of Autohaven. This one feels to open and weird. It has no depth to it.

I miss old hatch rules, i miss dueling for the hatch with the killer and getting crows while the killers afk. I hate how the killer just closes it and i die bc the exit gates are 10m away from eachother on the same wall.
I miss old lucky break for 180 seconds and just blood.
i miss old animations
i miss the servers BEFORE dedicated servers. Dedicated servers are the worst thing the game devs couldve ever done.
i miss old billy and old freddy (playing as him)
i miss old trapper when he could place a trap under me on the hook
i miss spinechill not going off for stealth killers and being spooked by a scratch mirror michael
i miss the old maps and wished both reworked and unreworked versions could be played at the same time or atleast in customs.

Billy or auto haven

I'd revert all map reworks, ESPECIALLY LERRY'S, i'd remove Breakable Infinites, just delete infinites don't force killers to still have to deal with them and know wich piece of wood is good or bad to break. Revert to Old Legion and DELETE DEEP WOUNDS, the worst killer mechanic to have ever existed, even worse than Spirit. For Perks revert GearHeads Nerf.
0 -
Please God no. I still haven't got over the PTSD of people running Lery's and The Game with old Balanced Landing. Can you imagine it on the new maps? It would be beyond broken.

Kates ptb scream
the billy rework

hillbilly and auto haven, new auto haven is fine but not as good as the other graphical reworks.

Hillbilly, autohaven, the twins nerf that was stupid,

Personally, I just wish they’d revert the changes to grass on the updated maps. Trapper used to be so fun but now he just feels really frustrating. The grass doesn’t even hide his traps at all for survivors playing on low settings. Really frustrating. Such a bizarre decision considering that they’re essentially nerfing an already meh killer for no apparent reason. The new grass doesn’t even look better in my opinion. Just feels like a huge middle finger to Trapper tbh. I know that they’re never going to actually revert the change to grass. All I can hope for at this point is that maybe they’ll give him a substantial buff/rework sometime soon.

Revert the nurse nerf.

Of course it was fun, you could run killers forever on haddonfield.

Id probably revert the rework to hex ruin. The new ruin rewards killers for applying pressure but not all killers are good at that. Old ruin at least bought you time because it actually slowed down gens. M1 killers with no mobility have a hard time getting use out of current ruin. Besides ruin didn't have much affect at higher ranks because good survivors hit great skill checks. So this rework was just to cater to newbies.
0 -
Old Ruin
Old Freddy (But be able to hit non-sleeping survivors)
Old Billy
Old Badham
Being able to have old Coldwind's lighting but on the new layout.

Old Piggy! I miss her 24 Meter Terror Radius; it was so especially and unique for her back then! I miss the old Endgame buid she could have had, when traps will Trigger during the Endgame after the last gen is pop! Now placing a trap on Survivor is useless after the final gen, and they can escape the map with it on!
