When are they gonna show some love to Ghostface?
Could swear he's played less than Demogorgon. His addons are awful, his power recovery is trash, he gets revealed extremely fast, etc.
But the one who gets a buff is Demo and the killer people want buffed is Pig (despite her being able to kill an slow down the game just fine, as Ghostface you're still gonna have 5 gens done by the time you find someone)

Ghost face is really good. He's basically michael but better.

Although the changes and problems that I have with Ghostface are mostly different than yours, I do agree that he does need some changes and even a buff to make him not only more viable but more fun to play as/against.

I agree, Ghostface needs a few adjustments.
I mean, if the next mid-chapter ends up being the Myers update, then who knows, we might get buffs for GF too. After all, the Bubba update updated Billy to keep the theme of chainsaws. They better not hammer GF though.

His detection mechanic needs improving, he shouldn't be able to stand in the open and keep rapidly crouching and remain completely undetected, not to mention sometimes he can fill up like 50% of your screen and it still doesn't work properly.
His addons are also really bad, he has quite literally 3/4 good ones

If they do, I would be pretty upset, GFace is one of my top three mains, the others being oni and phead

Probably around the same time they remember Nurse used her power to MOVE as well as attack, and thus remove the stupid AF interface-screw cooldown, since she now has tokens. Both together are stupid on a new level.
So basically; never. Because it would make Survivors angry.

I can't wait for them to give GF the overheat mechanic.
"We will be updating the Ghost Face so that he starts sweating vigorously in fear someone will reveal him while holding down the stalk button, taking him out of stealth mode after holding it down for 3 seconds."

You forgot the mechanic: Survivors can now fight back; Whenever GF attempts a stab, Survivors can hold the power button & fight Ghostface for his knife. If they make an Easy Skillcheck, they take his knife & stab him with it.
GF can cancel this attempt if he passes the new 'Jesus That's Impossible!' Skillcheck; he has to stop the arrow on a 1-pixel-wide mark, while the skillcheck bounces around the screen at 10 times a second.

Micheal is better in my eyes, ghost face got really nothing going for him against any swf or good looper so I think he need some love as well

Ghostface is in a good spot, besides the buggy reveal mechanic. He has 1 shot down, can hide his terror radius to get close and get free hits, he’s basically the most balanced killer for both sides. As for his add ons, while not ridiculous they’re not bad by any means.
Also sidebar, Nurse is in a good spot too, and if you think she should be reverted get good at blinking.

Considering myers is one of the weakest killers its not hard to be myers but better.

Changes that I'd like to see for the Ghostface that'd increase his quality of life:
- Hooked Survivors can no longer reveal the Ghostface whilst in Night Shroud
- Survivors in the dying state can no longer reveal the Ghostface whilst in Night Shroud
- Spine Chill no longer trumps the Night Shroud ability
- Survivors must be oriented and facing in the direction of the Ghosftface to reveal him
With regards to his addons, other than the power recovery ones, they're all hot basura. The issue is what can they be changed to? Your guess is as good as mine. I feel his weakness lies in looping so perhaps things to address that?
One change I've been thinking about is the "Ghostface Caught On Tape": Survivors who reveal the Ghostface in Night Shroud are Marked for 30 seconds. Strong for sure, but it is an Ultra Rare.
Any thoughts?

Gods, don't I wish for all of them. it's stupid in the extreme that downed & hooked Survivors can break his power.
Then again; Ghostface is a victim of the mentality that all powers need a built-in counter, but they were too lazy to think it through. They just went 'Survivors can break his stealth' without thinking about: looking around corners, being hooked, or being on the ground. It was just easier to make it work all the time.
Mostly because Survivors are the $$$ of this game.

he needs to throw his knife like in the movies

Not saying anything about Ghostface, but Nurse does need some improvements.
Pretty much any Nurse main will tell you that she isn't any weaker than she was before, just more tedious and less fun to play as. They literally just raised her already overwhelming skill floor without lowering her skill ceiling.
If they wanted to remove her from the lineup for being too powerful, they should have done that, not make her into a buggy, irritating mess with the most "limit power for BP" add-ons in the game taking up, almost all of her brown add-ons.
Now pretty much the only people who actually play Nurse tend to be sweatlords who don't care about anyone, including themselves, having fun, and only care about winning at all costs.
I'm not saying the "nerfs" should be reverted, but she absolutely shouldn't remain in the state she's in right now.

His power is bugged to all hell and the vast majority of his add-ons are garbage. He needs some changes, not a full rework but something to make his base kit playable.

I would like to see an addon rework,improved reveal mechanic and a reduced cooldown.
30 seconds is waay too long imo
1 -
WHATZUUUUUUP?!

I would argue the only people who maimed her before were the sweatlords, she was such an easy win. 2-3 blinks on such a short cool down was just silly. In her state now (bugs aside) she my favorite killer to play. Extremely rewarding when played right and punishing for mistakes. If you really want old cool down run both cool down add ons, and she feels almost the same.
Really, aside from bugs she feels like she’s in a great spot balance wise, maybe still too good but without a rework she’ll always be that way.

Be careful with what you ask because if they change GF he will get nerf hard they cant do a killer rework right

Ghost face is way over powered as it is when Will the servivers get a speed buff to combat some of this killer speed. We r running for our lives at a cool jog.

I disagree with this post entirely. Every part. I've gone up against Ghost Face 5.34% of my matches and Demogorgon only 1.53% of the time. Also, every Ghost Face I've gone against, even the times when I play him, do EXTREMELY well. I think the worst I've seen a Ghost Face do is a 2k by the time the gates are powered and that's the worst. I'm usually able to end a game with 3 gens still needing to be repaired unless there's a swf. Even then, I don't think I've had as much trouble as you're claiming Ghost Face to have in a WHILE.

His recovery is fine when you manage it correctly (though I'd like a 5 second drop in cooldown as well) and the only bad add-ons he has are the stalk movement speed add-ons (Shape uses them better).
I'd like for them to spice him up SFX-wise. Make Marked survivors hear his old Night Shroud ambience for the duration, restore the sound effect when a Mark expires, and give him chase music.

He needs a cooldown reduction to his power or make it harder to reveal him. Good survivors will constantly be revealing him which forces him to be an m1 killer most of the game.
Also, a lot of the new maps are very open and you can see him comming from miles. Myers suffers from this as well.

I don't understand why so many people complain about his detection. I have no trouble kicking him out of stealth and survivors I face certainly have no trouble kicking me out of it.
If you want to go off "whose plated the least" I think that's Nurse. Does that mean we should buff the strongest killer in the game >.>

I'd just want M1 not reset his stalk meter so that you can stalk people to 99% and injure them than 1 shot them when they fully heal. cooldown is easily fixable through add-ons. his stalking is too niche and too punishing so you rarely see him.

I'm a Ghostface main and have been since his release, I'm top 35 on the leaderboards currently so he's pretty much all I play. He's in a good spot for the most part but he needs some base recovery. 30 seconds CD on his power is very crippling so against higher level teams, addons are a must. Also the buggy reveal mechanic that screws over both sides needs to be addressed as well.

Ghosty boy it's best killer in this game, if he gets buff i'l be glad.
