The Amanda's Letter add-on for The Pig has been Kill Switched due to an issue with incorrect RBT count.

For those playing killer, who are you picking for Lights out?
I want to maximise fun over “winning,” so my personal choices are Bubba, Myers, and Twins(not slug twins) .
what are yours?

I would say Hillbilly if I weren't absolutely awful at him, but I'm sure someone else can pull it off. The idea of him showing up behind you with no warning ready to chainsaw you is terrifying.
In my experience, any Killer that you want to stay away from at all costs is a solid choice! They all become stealth Killers, so I've had fun taking advantage of that opportunity to get up close before they can start running.

Not Freddy :(

pyramid head, something about having pyramid head chase you in the dark is scary asf
billy, having him zoom at you is terrifying
or deathslinger. hitting shots when you can barely see them is satisfying. and having a spear come out in the dark is so scary

Knight, since my main is literally unplayable.
Tarhos here will be filling in for Freddy, I suppose.

Hag has been crazy for me
1 -
I'll start with the Nurse because she is my main on the Killer side.
Also, in my opinion, stealth is a great tactic against Nurse. Survivors will have better chance that if I play, say, a stealth killer. (I think.)
But vulpixia has made what I believe is a valid a remark about Lights out. The TL/DR is that Legion is probably the best killer in this context.

Dredge has been pretty fun!
no 4Ks yet (if at all😄) every match has been even
Interesting, vs’ing Survivors w/o Windows

Freddy is not playable in this mode?
do we know why? Technical issue/bug or licensing issue??
0 -
Nope, he isn't.
There is already a merged thread about it:

Gosh, no disrespect, but play every other m1 killer without power. He is not so unic gameplay wise to be that upset.
2 -
Go Ghost Face or Myers.

I'm thinking the best killers are going to be ones like:
- Doctor for finding survivors easily
- Myers for the instakill factor
- Onryo for the teleporting around
- Bubba for the insta down
- Nemesis for the zombies actually being decent
- Plague for forcing survivors injured or getting your power
Honestly there are a ton of potential picks here its pretty interesting. Most of the low tier killers actually become good, while the high tier ones (nurse/blight/spirit) have a much harder time.

Slinger is kinda insane on this gamemode.

Just tried out trapper and it was pretty fun. I got lerys but it was actually good still and i landed a few traps. Including a game winning one where 2 people stepped on 2 nearby traps at about the same time.

I’ll be playing Onyro. :)

Trapper is pretty fun here. You can set up some traps in peace and watch survivors fall for them later haha.
1 -
So far I've played Clown, Trapper, and Skull Merchant; in order, my main, a killer I thought would benefit from the gloom, and a killer that has some in-built tracking to overcome the gloom.
Trapper worked out pretty well, which is an unexpected little boon. It's nice to feel like your traps might actually catch survivors...
0 -
I've only played Trapper and Myers so far.
Myers because is like playing Scratched Mirror with tier 2 and tier 3 of his power but without auras.
Trapper because the traps are harder to see in the darkness and because survivors can't see you placing the traps from afar.
I want to try Nemesis because maybe zombie auras can still be seen and zombies help you to track survivors and because the zombies are more dangerous in this mode.
I was thinking in trying Oni because he should very strong in this mode, but one of the maps is Lery's which is very bad for him, so idk.

Doc can't find people. No TR = no zap.
0 -
His zapping works, even with no TR.

Thank you.

Onryo, Pyramid Head and Naughty Bear. First two will probably feel damn scary to be chased in the dark by, and I want Naughty Bear to feel scarier in this gamemode.
0 -
I've been using it as an opportunity to try out killers I don't know well since it's pretty low-stress. Skull Merchant has been fun so far, and looking forward to trying to get jumpscare shots with Deathslinger.
1 -
Playing as Xeno is a blast. Even though the turrets give warning, most survivors at end game chat claim they screamed out loud.
5 -
The power of stealth is MAXIMIZED when I'm playing as myers. I'm stalking from a distance, and they can't see me. I mean, I can't either but I know I see them if I'm stalking from a distance. It spooks them even more once they hear my tier up.
0 -
I’m currently queueing in as Hag! should be interesting…
0 -
I'm going to make survivors play Alien Isolation whether they want to or not
9 -
I've been playing Mikey. But for the most part I've been playing him like vanity mirror without the wall hacks. Its hard to stalk in the darkness. But I am adapting. First match I think I popped one tier 3. Now I am popping most of them.

Chucky, this little man is so fun in this mode.
0 -
His zapping works, so does legion. I think instead of just "removing" the terror radius, they just muted it is it makes no sound, and disabled the heartbeat.
2 -
Slinger and shooting into the dark. It's hilarious and I love it.
0 -
I can't believe how much fun I'm having with Trickster. Didn't expect that one.
1 -
I have mostly gotten Pig, Legion, or Ghostface.
0 -
If you didn’t mean to be disrespectful you could have just not commented?
let people have their favorites/mains. Doesn’t need to be gameplay related for them, especially with a licensed killer.

Could imagine Trapper being fun given its dark. I main Knight and Oni, both I think will be tricky, especially Knight with no gens as patrol targets. Think Artist will have a tricky time likewise. Just played against a Wesker who didn't use his power at all, just M1'd.
1 -
I am having a lot of fun with Knight, to be honest.
0 -
I had some fun moments with Sadako, no lullaby baybeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
2 -
Hillbilly sounds HORRIBLE for this. The idea of having a split second to see a wall while chainsawing sounds rough.
2 -
Played four games so far, Pyramid Head, Deathslinger, Hag, then Chucky.
0 -
Skull Merchant does decent for this. Scatter the drones around and survivors give away their positions.
0 -
I'm enjoying Dredge the most. Chucky is pretty fun. I really, really wish Xeno could shine in this mode, but the turrets just nerf her hard.
0 -
Playing Chucky feels rough on Lerys due to his slow speed+ constant window vaults. Since you have a heavily limited map pool and it includes Lery's, I'd rather avoid that.
How does the map look during Dredge's nightfall? I'd imagine the survivors just don't see ANYTHING.

Xenomorph, the game is so atmospheric when you face one in this mode, the sound design without the TR and HB is even better. I saw one and it was actually one of the best game in a long time.
Now playing Xenomorph is always cool, i don't see any differences between the two modes, it's mainly for survivors. It's a game mode totally unbalanced, but it's really cool to hear the screech in the distance. My only complain is the chase music, in the normal game mode, it's cool but in this mode, it kinda get you out of the vibe since it's so Aliens-ish and not Alien, the PTB one would have been better for this specific mode.
Pyramid head is also very atmospheric with you hearing the great knife closer and closer. The trails passive sounds are also cool.

So far
Started with Myers and it went well - 4K
Switch to Bubba and it went kina mediocre - 2K
Switch to doc and it was a laugh with all the screaming giving people away -4K
Then trapper and he's great, just catching players in traps everywhere. - 4K
Last game was clown overall a good game - 3K
Gonna rest on my laurels
Played a few survivor games lot of ghost face very common killer in the dark. Only one escape so far from 4 games. 2x Ghosty, 1x Bubba and 1 Chucky.
Its all been great though especially as survivor.
1 -
Does she really have no lullaby? That would be great.

I used Myers twice. I got a 4K the first time, then a hacker ruined my match the second trial so I didn't bother trying to win.
I just left him slugged after I caught up to him, but his crawl speed was probably triple the normal speed and he got out the exit gate.
He had instant Breakout of course, so he was impossible to pick up. It left a sour feeling and I haven't played Killer in the dark since.
When I get over it, I'm going to play as Chucky. I haven't even seen him as Survivor yet.
Alien is definitely the most terrifying so far although I haven't faced a Pig yet (knock on wood).
1 -
Had a lot of success with Xeno, Pinhead and Bubba.
Pinhead’s camera during casting is bugged once again, tho.
1 -
The pig, she has always had nice jump scares.
0 -
Nemo is quite comical in this mode; no TR and heartbeat - but his stomps are so loud and he's so tall that survs usually notice well in time.
I don't feel particularly compelled to continue playing that game mode... but maybe I give Doctor a shot.

His stomping ! freaked me right out
