Anyone else disappointed Myers hasn't had a makeover yet?
I mean come on you've already touched up his map and I think even updated Laurie's model, why is Michael still looking like a 5 year old was playing with clay?
He's subjectively the most iconic killer on the roster and he looks worse than the Trapper did at launch, AND YOU GUYS PAYED TO USE HIM.

Okay,you mean his optics. Yeah, he looks somewhat derpy and I wouldn't mind a glow up.
A lot of players also seem to hate his power and call it weak, while I myself "admire its purity ". Its deceptively simple, but bypasses a lot of the survivors defensive techs by putting then directly into the dying state.
The only thing any his power that I really despise is und juice mechanic. It would be rad if survivors regenerated their stalk juice slowly over time and especially if a sacrificed survivors stalk juice would be distributed amongst the remaining survivors.
Losing a pretty full survivors to a hook suicide or their "buddies" unwillingness to save them can screw you over big time.

I do remain hopeful that he'll at least get a H40 skin eventually.
And I agree that the limit to stalking survivor is a bit old and outdated. You shouldn't lose your power after some point in the game.

Not really, as he still looks like Michael Myers to me. But he does kind of look cartoony compared to the rest of the updated killers, though.

I personally kind of like how cartoony he looks. I do not feel the rest of the killers are close to "realistic" so it is not as though he stands out THAT much, to me, at least.

Yeah, not only does he look kinda derpy, but he doesn't look like Myers in the first Halloween. He's far too tall and muscular, while Myers in the movies is pretty physically average looking. Also I'd really wish they'd get rid of that dumb grunt he does when you stun him.
1 -
Yeah, that's how I feel about it. I don't really care as he looks normal to me.
0 -
Yes. He needs to be more muscular, with a much higher pixel count and get a new g-string, shirtless cosmetic.

I mean, he broke a car's window with a single hit of his hand. He's far from being average.
1 -
That's the point. He has unnatural strength because he's not human. To me, it's far scarier seeing an average looking dude hold you up with one hand and pin you to the wall than seeing a buff guy do it.

Funnily enough I've said the exact thing word for word about dead survivors, distributing stalk between the remaining ones.
Another cool idea I had is that you press Special Ability/CTRL to Tier up. So if you hold down CTRL, his stalk is identical to before, activating as soon as you've gained full stalk. But you can also "Store" your power by stalking the bar full, but activate it whenever you want by pressing CTRL. This would help with not being able to tier up on a survivor you've fully stalked.

I'm for this

Yeah I had tombstone and ended killing those survivors who had not been stalked much. It's very outdated mechanic to run out of stalk it should recover slowly. Other than that I find him fine but maybe he should be also faster in tier 1 and at very least better lunge so schratched mirror might actually be decent to use.

He looks fine. You've either never watched the original movie or you're making this argument in bad faith.

I don't think he needs a rework.
With the recent update he's better than he was.
Myers is about resource management and timing.
I'd say the most he needs is for survivors who are at max stalk to slowly regain it so he isn't left without a power during a long game. Otherwise he's fine.

Priorities. There are bigger fish to fry. Michael looks fine imo. What he needs are actual buffs.

Give the man a makeover and he will turn into Mariah:

He doesn’t look bad.
maybe give him a texture pass, but he looks perfect the way he is.

Not talking about a rework, I'm talking visually.

Let me list the problems with the dbd model.
His head is flat, face isn't the right shape, the whole mask is pure white, the neck on the mask is too short, hair is too short, shoulders are too broad, he's too ######### tall, and his hands look like play-doh.
It looks like the original at a glance but seeing them side by side they are very clearly different and BHVRs design looks more like an homage than the actual character it's supposed to be.
Freddy looks more like his movie counterpart than Michael does with HIS movie counterpart.
Am I wrong for wanting something done better while knowing that the designers CAN do better?
1 -
Yeah because the design team need their priorities on things other than the designs and concepts of characters.
1 -
I think his model looks fine for the most part although they could fix up his hands. They're really big and goofy looking.
0 -
The model is ok just gotta fix his gorilla hands.
It'd be great to get another licenced skin like the old dirty mask from the recent Halloween films, even though they aren't that great.
