Why is there no representation of an old woman as survivor ?
We have Bill as an old man, but we have no old woman survivor. I prestiged my Laurie recently, and I thought (having never seen the movies) that she was in her 40-50s, but she is in fact very young like many, many, many other young survivor women in the game…
May we have a granny survivor please ? It would be so unique. For inspiration, think about Carol from The Walking Dead or Ana from Overwatch. Both women past their prime but still great warriors able to survive.

I headcannon Jane,Yun-Jin and Zarina in their 30's but BHVR doesn't seem interested to do older than that

Bill is the only one I would consider an "old man." The others are older, sure. But op said Granny.

Tapp you can say just looks older. Ash was born in 1957 so that means hes at least 57+ as in Ashe Vs Evil Dead series in 2014 he was 57 which was around the time he was taken. And Ace is at least 50-60 easily

old people aren't real in dbd bill is just pretending for the clout

That is a killer exclusive perk, to have old ladies. Because apparently old women are horrific? I didn't imply it, Behavior did. I think grandma's are sweet. Not murdering psychos. That ain't my kink, bruh.

BHVR can make Nea old if they want. Maybe they can team up with AARP and make a Twitter post and everything.

You or me, because I'm pretty sure I meant that as a joke.

“Woman”
Now, I’m not too familiar with Left for Dead, but I’m fairly sure Bill doesn’t identify as a woman.

Sorry I've been dealing with people that would unironically mean that in an incredibly malicious way for a week, my sense of humour is really jaded rn. My bad

Elise from Insidious and the Red Demon PLEASEEEEEEEEEEE
2 -
In my head canon she does.

Yeah I have been asking for such a char for a long time now.
it seems like they have changed their approach of creating normal everyday people and are opting to young-attractive-successful ones. Which is tiring, but probably marketing-wise way smarter. At least they are getting getting diverse with ethnicities/nationalities and sexual orientations now.
(still wishing for more body-type and age diversity)
OMG. A whole Twitter post? I think that you actually kill some of the people that ‚don’t care for the lore‘ at this point

Bill was a partner with left 4 dead. I believe behaviour got it for free or incredibly cheap which is why Bill is a free character. He is also highly recognisable, popular character. An old woman survivor would be just fine, but that's why Bill exists, but not an old woman.

Because it's very tough for them to get away from killers when they're using walkers!

Haha I love it.

Old Sarah Connor and the Rev 9 terminator from Dark Fate??

If there's Bill from Left 4 Dead, is it possible to get Mom from Back 4 Blood?

This is so much fun to think about.

Omg I would love Carol from the Walking Dead!
She turned out to be such a badass character.
I would also love to see Elise from Insidious, what a great character she was!
7 -
I still wanna see Wickerbottom from Dont Starve transformed into DbD model/artstyle. I just really like her character design (and generally Don’t Starves character designs…)

Can we also get a survivor in a wheelchair while we're at it so I can get the full Texas Chainsaw Massacre experience as Franklin.
It's okay if maps aren't wheelchair accessible we'll make them accessible.

Sadly no, as this would require completely new hitboxes and animations for every interaction of survivors and between characters (surv-surv or surv-killer interactions).

New Survivor: Betty White

Only reason bill was free is because valve don’t want their content in other games being paid content. It’s why his rift was free too

Id love to see this tbh. Give her a mad max style skin like Jeff and I’m sold

I've always wanted an elderly woman in DbD, most of our female characters are quite young at the moment and it would be nice to see some more diversity in age and body types.
Also, it would be amazing to have a badass old lady in game. I'd love that.

All survivors actually just have a pill collision for a hitbox which is why you may notice jank hits on let's say Huntress.
As for animations sure but just imagine it with me - A perk that puts a survivor in a wheelchair - a worse No Mither if you will. As for killer pickup just make the entity yank the wheel chair. It would be the same concept as letting the killer pick up a locker with a survivor in it and hooking the locker instead. Makes complete sense and good luck unhooking someone in front of me now Dwight.

ive been trying to suppress that memory..

You can't have these as survivors. You would have to give them the power to actually chase and harass the killers and that just won't do xD.
I mean it would be hilarious to have them grannies bludgeoning the killers into submission, but I don't think that would work.
0 -
That’s what I am talking a out with the hitbox, a surv in a wheelchair would be even more off and would actually need another hitbox.
for the animations it’s more than just picking up survivors. Every Mori, Healing, getting healed, repairing, Totem cleansing and blessing, running, walking, exit gates, etc pp all would need new animations..

If anything they would make an armless survivor and that could work. (Still new animations) but could work decently well
And I mean truly armless no Ashley type stuff.

It is honestly a shame. It is like BHVR can make male survivors all distinct with different body shapes, ages, etc, but when it comes to female survivors they absolutely can not make them different (ethnicity not included). Jane is like the only exception in all regards. Jane is the oldest if I'm not mistaken, but still being about only 30, and she has a unique body shape. Every other female survivor has to be skinny young girl boss with funny quirk.
I get that those are the type that sell well, and they are a business after all. Still extremely lame that every time a new female survivor is about to come out, I can't help but sigh as Jeff or other actually unique survivors are forgotten

Because killer players would feel bad killing a helpless old lady.
So please add old Laurie.
