    It is old so I might have actually answered this thread but if I didn't

    Chucky

    Pinhead (The Hell Priest) is at the top of my licensed character wishlist. My idea for the power would be a midrange chain attack that pulls survivors towards the killer. Unsure what limitations would be needed to balance this because I'm not getting paid for this. 🤣

    Chucky is my second choice. I don't know what you would do for the power, or how to deal with his size with regards to carrying and hooking, but it would be awesome to have this character in the game!

    It goes without saying that Jason would be a dream addition, but who knows when the legal troubles will finally be resolved. As an alternative, I'd like to see Victor Crowley in the game.

    A killer that is actually able to compete at the highest level would be good but I don't think we'll EVER get those anymore.

    The shark from Jaws.

    I don't think he's been mentioned for a while...

    PUMPKINHEAD!!!

    The Tall Man/Reggie Bannister

    Tony the Pimp (survivor)

    Blake/Stevie Wayne

    Rawhead Rex (apparently there's a reboot coming?!)

    Oh and if you want to catch the eye of the current Generation

    Demogorgon / Steve Harrington!!!

    I'd gladly chip in for Tony the Pimp, he's well up for licensing his likeness out!

    There are plenty of cool killers to choose from, but the best choices would be selections with unique powers the Dev's can replicate. Whichever they choose needs to feel like the killer from the film. While I do like Freddy, the representation of his power in film did not translate very well into gameplay.

    as pyramid head might be really unlikely, Silent Hill Downpours Boogeyman might be a good alternative

    You have heard of "Bear in a china shop", but we are now presenting "Xenomorph in a ski resort". I mean i would watch that.

    @Peanits It wouldn't have to be the Nostromo, necessarily. I mean, the Xenomorph was originally found on an alien world.

    The Thing if not for the fact that SWF would completely ruin it.

    Don't know if it counts (get it?) as a licensed killer but Nosferatu would be cool.

    From now on, whenever people ask this question, I'ma leave this here: (video)

    Either this, Clementine ( from TWD) as a survivor, or an Alcatraz/MOTD map.

    that game was awful but KORN's ost for it was great

    A xenomorph as someone said would be cool, an alien killer would be original and fresh for the game. Also it should be a new stealthy killer, we need more stealthy killers, there are few.

    I just wish they would have had Nancy from Wes Craven's Nightmare on Elm St. instead of Quentin from 2010, and of course, the OG Freddy. You could argue that Nancy wouldn't work because she died in the movies, but Laurie also died, and she's still in the game.

    As for a new killer, I would definitely like to have Jason, but F13 is a competitor game, so I don't know if that would even be possible.

    Other than Jason, I can't think of any other licensed killer I want in the game.

    Chris Walker would be an amazing killer. Idk about Wallrider though, cuz he was OP in Outlast, and having him toned down for DbD would be odd. And also, if it was a chapter, they'd have nothing to go on for a survivor, cuz you never see Miles' or Park's faces. But I'd love to see good ol' fat man run around a new Asylum map looking for survivor heads to rip off.

    I would love to see this list of killers


    Chucky

    The Miner from my bloody valentine

    Pinhead

    If I get any cross-over killers I will be happy, mostly of the outlast series

    Marta

    Dr.Trager

    Chris walker

    Movie killers devs have achieved already

    Something that is actually rank 1 viable and not another killer to lose in the tier of unviability if we actually want to win.

    Pinhead is so iconic, I don't know why more people don't request this one. It would be so much fun to snatch a survivor in those chains as a power.

    You know what needs to happen?

    Pale Man from "Pan's Labyrinth". I know it's not from a horror movie but #########... that bastard gave me chills!

    Also, are creepypastas licensed? Doesn't matter, I want Slenderman or Clockwork in the game (If u don't know her I highly recommend said creepypasta).

  • Ember_Hunter

    Until Dawn Wendigo would be a scary killer... Seeing the aura of ANY moving survivor within range. Survivor: Tbh, any of them work, probably Emily, Matt, Sam or Josh is best.

  • Kaytosh
    Kaytosh Member Posts: 46

    I'd highly doubt Josh to make the cut. You know, for the whole being dead reason.

  • Ember_Hunter

    Also, I have an idea for slenderman:

    He moves every 3 seconds, and his terror radius is actually a visual thing. As he gets closer to survivors, survivors get more and more blinded. They get stunned if the screen turns 100% fizzy. Slenderman could be a decent killer, since he is almost unpredictable :D

    Until Dawn is a PS4 exclusive though so I dont think it'll make it into the game. I would personally love to see Pinhead make it to the game. Imagine how cool and gruesome the mori would be

    I don't really care, as long as hey are more than 2 outfits (more than Regular and Prestige). Kinda like Ash, but they also get the recolors of the regular and 2 other paid outfits.


    If Jason get announced with multiple outfits, oh BOY!! Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, Part 4, Even Part 5, where it wasn't Jason (that was the movie with Jason's Father as the killer, right). If Jason had an outfit for every movie, and possibly even the one he had exclusive from the game, ohh!! Cyborg Jason.

    I'm fanboying too much over someone I haven't even seen 10 minutes of, but boy, the outfit potential. It'll be a REAL shame if he only had 2 outfits.


    Wait, what was this about, again?
