Still no love for Freddy or Michael 😞

Michael Myers is the oldest licensed killer in the game without receiving any significant changes to his power, and people have complained for years over just how weak it is to play Freddy. The fact that neither of these killers will be touched in the upcoming patch is really disappointing.

I personally like playing as Michael Myers, but the fact that he's the only killer that can literally run out of power is absurd, and that needs to be addressed.

Having control of survivors in the dream world as Freddy is interesting, but only being able to put down a puddle or a pallet is also ridiculously weak, and as such he needs a buff.

I just hope the devs show these two some love at some point, because these two are long overdue for some attention.

    Agreed. They said they would look into making changes to Michael, but it'll probably be a while. I remember reading somewhere Freddy was on the to-do list too, but there was no official date yet.

    Yes, and Good Lord, can we please find a way to get Michael a new outfit to slay in🙏🏼

    He’s been stalking around in the same garb for too long😩

    If they can work him to be actually fun to go against sure.


    They need to start by removing both the stone and the piece from his kit and then work from there.

    Freddy used to be able to see non awake survivors outside of terror radius. He even had a slowdown to action speeds. Now he a shell of his former self. Myers is surprisedly the license who made other licenses popular yet he left behind. Rip

    Yeah, the thing I find so frustrating with Myers is that I've had plenty of games where I can't stalk survivors anymore, meaning that I'm just a regular m1 killer. Not having a power was ridiculous. If his add-ons need to be changed in order to rectify this, then that's fine, but he is long overdue for a rework and I'm amazed that hasn't happened yet given that he's the oldest licensed killer in the game.

    MM is one of my more chosen killers just to have some fun with. The limited stalk meter is outdated for sure.

    Myers and Freddy are fine!, a bit broken I'd say!
