I want to know to be honest, I hear people on the DBD club on xbox saying he is now OP because he can teleport to generators, honestly imo, he just sounds like a mix of too many killers, he should not be a doctor/nurse mixture cause of his mindgame abilities



The dream snares sound like the one hag add-on that I never see, I don't even remember its name!



Also I sort of see it already that people want a killer (that is still a wip due to the rework dropping in mid-chapter patch) that people want him nerfed already



This is not a complaint post and I am using a greatly damaged computer atm, so if you see any spelling or grammar errors its because some of the buttons work while others don't

    @pemberley That caught my eye as well, they allowed all skill checks to wake you up and now clocks (If I heard it correct) wake you up as well, it sort of makes Freddy slightly more of a threat as long as you don't manage to lose your prey

    Honestly the way I see it it's going to be a buff for people that want to play every killer the same, but most likely will be a nerf for the people that actually took the time to learn his gimmicks.

    Also, I despise the fact that he's a setup killer now. They're so boring to play as IMO, so now the only reason I feel to play Freddy is character loyalty, and that's not a good feeling.

    He could get to mid tier but higher than that? Just look at all the others licensed killers they released. Only Myers is mid tier for now.

    Depends on how the sleep function works. It seems easy to get out of and takes a while to get into, and half of his power is gonna rely wholly on the sleep function. The teleporting is limited and its gonna depend on how far the range is. If it's not very far then it's not gonna be a useful ability. I was also unclear on if trap pallets hurt you or just work like doctors illusions.

    They'll lock all those abilities behind add on and the only ability he will have baseline is the transport ability. I think that's BS because it still gives survivors yet another warning he's coming. All 3 of these abilities should be baseline imo. I just can't trust them. Look at how plague was "ok" and then nerfed. Look at legion. Look at remember me. Look at how pig was gutted end game for no real reason.


    I'm just like damn man. Survivors ALWAYS need a chance? Just revert Freddy back to release state. Lower the dream transition to 5 secs or something. Remove the ability to interact during dream transition... The end.

    I actually am pretty excited, from what I've seen, he doesn't need you to be asleep in order to hurt you any more. And the powers he is going to be given is much more in line with what he does in the movies. I.E messing with your head, scaring you, etc.

    I probably shouldn't get my hopes up though.
