Freddy only exists in our Dreams. And even then he is a Nightmare.

I'm not super surprised Freddy's a low priority right now, considering some of the other issues to tackle, but it is a shame to see. We'll hold out hope he gets some love later on...

I love Kruger. Terrified me as a kid.

Not sure what people were expecting. Back in the first AMA when he was acknowledged it only sounded like he was a blip on the radar. Whereas Twins had something more definitive. Seems like it could be a long while. Especially with Skull Merchant and 3-gen stalemates being a higher priority.

Well. Freddy got shifted from ‚blip on the radar‘ to an even lower priority. Idk.. seems like people should be more outraged at this. It’s pretty much at the point where nothing will come for Freddy for the next year at least..

They also said they have nothing planned for Myers right now :/

They announced the Twins rework 1 1/2 years ago (said it would be their turn right after GF and Legion). Then Caitlyn 3Genner happened and had to be reworked. 💀
At this point, I am not waiting for the rework anymore. It will come eventually but until then I can play the killer as they are. Clunky and kind of unpleasent but also fun.
I mean, you are not wrong but on the other hand... Who would be outraged? Freddy is barely a part of DBD anyway. There are like 3 dedicated Freddy mains and people like me who don't know what other handicap to give themselves.
I have seen people suggest to make his dream pallets base kit, give him an addon pass and be done with it but I feel that this wouldn't really change anything. He would still be weak, kind of boring and the least faithful adaption of any license they've done so far. I'd rather they take his old kit and go from there.

remenber when they did the same for the legion rework ? , is probably gonna take 2 years or more to happen if not them just look at the promise of the twins rework? yeah is not gonna happen anytime soon

I almost completely believe that his "obovement" will be completely useless.....I love playing for him, but it seems like the last time they did something really good in terms of killers.. it was a long time ago. Yes, there is a stranger, but he is problematic and may be killed, killed very soon. I honestly don't want to get anything good from them anymore....

i blame skull merchant she's probably taking his place and others in priority rework list.

Maybe in 2025 he finaly might be better and more interesting killer hopefully. Until then, he is stuck with worse Clown bottless that only effect sleepy Survivors bruh and map teleport that gets slowly turned off as gens are getting done.

Oh wait... not even soon. Yeah uhm... maybe for the 10 year anniversary we´ll get a heads up.
RIP Freddy

RIP Freddy. Hopefully you get removed from the game, because THIS is not what YOU deserve at all.
Just make a return of OG-Freddy (coding is saved, right?) and give survivors Incapacitated-Effect while in Dream Transition. Boom, killer done and old Freddy-Mains would love it.
But... FREDDY IS DEAD, because they dont care. Its a sad time and I think its time to end the fight for him, because its pointless. They wanted to rework Twins and now, after almost 2 years since Patrick announced it, it will just be some little addon-tweaks and bug-fixes. And this took them 2 years?
Freddy has to pay the price that the devs werent able to see in a 1-year-development of Skull Merchant what will happen with her? Like, SERIOUSLY????

Coming soon!!!
Twins are crying in a corner for over a year now...

All it takes is a little buff for survivors to scream and cause a big rebound nerf.

Lol. Lmao. Freddy mains taking another fat L, enjoy getting buffed in 2 times googolplex years!
2 -
I knew this was coming. Thank you.
0 -
How many L do Freddy-Mains have to take? But hey, its just Freddy, who cares....
:-(

Probably something akin to the Clown ""Rework"" where he can now use both pallets and snares without addons, coming in 3-5 years.

They must be working on a really good License chapter for Freddy to get kicked down to the low priority list.

- Killswitch SM.
- Finish/release Twins rework/addon pass.
- Finish/release Freddy rework/addon pass.
- Finish/release Pyramid Head rework/addon pass.
- Finish/release Myers rework/addon pass.
- Finish/release Blight rework/addon pass.
- Finish/release SM rework and remove killswitch.
In all of these cases the issues were the result of the devs short-sightedness and lack of understanding the state of the game for releasing/updating these killers in this fashion. None more egregious than the SM, which should have been obvious during internal testing, much less PTB , how much of a problem this character was going to be.
The others who have been waiting years for fixes shouldn't have to wait longer because of a more current mistake that never should have happened in the first place. Take SM down, finish and release the list of other characters that have been known for years for having problems, then deal with SM and re-enable.
Putting out one set of players (SM) for a while is far better than continuing to put out multiple other character's players, or the entire survivor player base (Blight, and to an extent Myers). Everyone paid their money and put their time in for these characters. The bigger investment is the many instead of the one (SM).

Now now, there can't be a Freddy thread without me!
...And I was just here to see defeat. Again.

I want OG Freddy back. With Adjustments (!).
Then, I want to discuss with other Freddy-Mains (currently there are... 6... or so) different strategies.
