Why is Freddy lunge attack so freaking insane?
I can't understand why Freddy have an absolute gamebreaking attack range, is there any plans of reducing it? He is making Wraith and Lvl3 Myers look like child's play.
This need to be done he is completely unfair above every killer.

Is his lunge better than the normal killer lunge?

Nope he's fine:) learn to read the signs when he uses his teleport ability. Good luck in your future games:D

It isn't his lunge that is bigger. His body model is smaller. So essentially there is a gap in-front of Freddy before his lunge. So he always appears to be lunging shorter than he really is.

I'm not talking about teleport in the question, it's just the lunge, and i tested with friends in matches, he have a longer one.

It's weird since legion is almost the same size and does NOT have this issue.

It's been confirmed multiple times by the devs that he has a normal lunge, its due to his weapon and size that it looks like he's reaching farther than it is. You should really start watching those dev streams, that's where you can get clarification for these types of misconceptions.

every killer has the same lunge, even killers with 110% speed

Not everyone has time to circle jerk for the hour and religiously keep up with the dev streams. Their point is valid when animation to being hit doesn't line up or the killer is half a mile away from you and you get clipped it doesn't look/feel reasonable. It is extremely hard to visualize the range of these killers due to their size and small weapons.

He is an m1 killer with a normal lunge, and you can completely avoid his powers by staying awake.

This has been an issue since his release, he has a normal lunge, but the devs never line up the animations, hag/legion has the same issue where it seems like they have an extended lunge it's "normal" for killers with a weapon but the animations don't match up correctly for shorter killers.

Fast and huge, he is nowhere close to lets say Legion, so that ¨he is smaller¨ excuse is not valid.

He has the exact same numbers as any other killer.
The difference is that his extremely short weapon has the same range as trappers machete. They even stretch his claw during the attack animation to somewhat mitigate the visual dissonance.
Good thing no one has proposed the stupid idea to adjust short weapon killer range yet.

He has the same lunge as every killer, he is just really small compared to other killers in his model imo he probably needs a better animation to make it not look so disproportionate cause he doesnt hold a weapon like other killers or have a giant claw he's just ######### slapping people with the same hit box as trappers machete lmao.

He has a normal lunge but his lunge is deceptive in regard of the others.

all killers except myers and nurse have the exact same lunge range however they have different models. So small killers with short weapons (like freddy) seem like they hit from further than they should where as big killers with long weapons hits look more accurate.

His Lunge is normal. As its been said multiple times. All killers except for tier 1 and 3 Shape has the same lunge range regardless of their movement speed or weapon size.
You just need to learn to read the killer better and time your actions better mate.

Only EW3 Myers has an increased lunge (God I love that one). Freddy's lunge looks weird because his weapon is short and they matched the animation to the actual hit box. So he has to cover the same distance with his Claws as the Trapper or Doctor with his long weapon. Nothing more.
1 -
So actually there is not a single plan on fixing his weird animation then?
About Devlogs, guys, i am not a DBD religious, i can't see each one of them videos searching for it, i have other stuff to attend, don't get me wrong.

It's cool man. Nobody is trying to get in the way of your My Little Pony time.

I think it's less that his lunge needs changed and more that his attack animation needs updated to better reflect his hitbox, that way it reads better to the survivor and that they are not being made to feel they are hit by BS circumstances.
1 -
Every killer has the same lunge range.(excluding any powers like Pig's dash or Myers Tier 1/3)
The reason it might look odd is probably due to the animation and his height.

Normal lunge its just his weapon dosent match the apperance of the attack. This is due to his finger knifes being smaller then a billy hammer or a trappers machete which better represents the max range of a killer. You could mess with the weapon to make it longer but that might make Freddy's finger knifes look more like claws which would hurt his representation as the dream demon we know and love.

@Peanits is there anyway you can confirm internally that the lunges are the same? I feel it is the size and small weapon comparison myself. However, not sure if things changed from Old -> New Freddy. I know you guys can see hit boxes and things when testing and can check numbers directly.
