IN ADDITION
STATIC BLAST!

He hasn't been reworked yet, the changed descriptions are in the game by mistake. It's listed as a "Known Issue" in the Patch Notes.
4 -
That's for the upcoming Doc changes, most likely in the mid-chapter patch. The new texts slipped in.
7 -
just noticed. pallet illusions are all visible though despite me not running addons for them
3 -
That's odd. Perhaps it's another upcoming change that slipped through.
2 -
So, they're basically nerfing him.

Bit of a jump in logic.

No

I wasn't talking about the add-ons.

Whatever part of the Doctor you're talking about, it's a still a jump to conclusion.
5 -
Oh, yeah? Where's the "survivors afflicted by Carter's spark can't interact with anything for 2,5 seconds" part? Because I don't see it.

We literally know nothing but the text, not how it functions ingame. It could be a nerf, or a massive buff. We need too wait till it's out before we say "OP" or "UP"
2 -
Possibly pending to be added to the description as what we see if not the final product.
Potential to be an add-on (with varying degrees of stun time and other effects)
Maybe part of the Hallucinations de-buff as we're yet to know what it does.
It's too soon to assume it's a down-right nerf when it's not even on the PTR.

Depending on if Static Blast makes survivors scream or not this is an absolute buff. If this is the case Whispers+Static Blast you will ALWAYS find survivors.
2 -
They really shouldn't take the stun out of his base kit he'd be so much weaker
But we'll see what they do with him, I suppose. Really just hoping for a buff tbh

Make survivors be exposed for 1 minute whenever they're shocked lul
1 -
They already mentioned he would be weaker than his current version.
0 -
When/where did they say that?
1 -
I cant remember where exactly been awhile since I saw it and pointed out to a friend who reminded my other friend in a party a few days ago.

A not so strong killer being made weaker? Wonderful thank you BHVR

I just wondered because the last I heard about it was the most recent Q&A stream, in which they were asked whether the Doctor would be buffed and they said their intention wasn't to buff him so much as make QOL adjustments to make him more fun to play both as and against. But that didn't seem to me like they were planning to make him weaker, just different.
4 -
first of all, survivors affected by his shock can not do anything for 2 seconds at minimum, increasing the time to 2.5 is not a nerf. if it is currently 2.5 seconds then it still is not a nerf what so ever. also if illusionary pallets are being seen without an addon that's a buff. what part of these two says "NERF"??? I don't think any one thought that through. and doc is one of those that do not have the right number of add on items either. just like nurse did not so till they actually announce anything don't start calling nerf to everything without cause.
0 -
That's this Community's logic. Apparentally any change is a huge nerf and Devs are stupid and hate us.
3 -
Ya I dont remember when or where man just I saw one of the Devs mention he would be weaker. Not exactly to what extent because I dislike Doctor so I didn't care honestly enough to pry into it. Was surprised I even bothered to mention it to a friend or remembered it for this thread.

All you folks saying it's a nerf, stop jumping to conclusions! The adjustments of doctor's abilities isn't even out yet. Hell, they didn't even release the FULL PATCH NOTES for him, for gods sake! So sit down and be patient, you can say how op or underpowered it is WHEN his entire rework is shown.
Btw, the few second delay of the survivor not being able to do anything wasn't listed in the original power description either. Never knew about it till a guide told me about it's existence.
0 -
Accurate. I'm looking forward to seeing what they do with the Doctor. His power is fun to use in some ways, but I think it could be a lot better to play as and against.
Currently, Madness 1 and Madness 2 feel like they hardly have any real effect on survivors without add-ons, apart from screaming. The hallucinations obviously don't fool anyone, and the random skillchecks become less and less useful as you play against more experienced survivors. But the random skillchecks are also really annoying when I play against the Doctor. So it's competitively weak and really annoying to play against; to me, as a Doctor main, that sounds like a mechanic which should be removed.
I'm hoping they make Madness 2 more threatening, and make Treatment mode a little more interesting/less awkward to use.

I was hoping to see what they would do for Nurse and her addons.
Careful what you wish for :(

"[...]a Shock Therapy attack [...] greatly increases Survivors' Madness, and prevents them from performing any interactions for 2.5 seconds.[...]"
1 -
To be fair, I don't think the hallucinations were ever supposed to fool anyone. I think they're primarily meant to be a way of tracking the survivors. I do agree that he could use some changes and minor buffs, however. I too am looking forward to seeing what they do with him. They have proved in the past with Freddy that they know how to do a rework right, so I'm still holding out hope for Doc.
0 -
it wasn't on the previous description either. The text describing Shock Treatment is the same as before.
0 -
Well, all they said was they were going to look at addons for the Nurse and didn't mention looking at Spirit before that...
Look what they did after that...
0 -
Look at what happened to legion, he wasnt entirely strong just making the game boring and they made him absolute garbage
0 -
Doctor doesn't make the game boring though, at least to me
0 -
I hate playing against doctor. I think he is just terrible design from day one. So now, not only will we have a killer who can teach survivors while in madness with illusions, find survivors who are hiding with shock therapy, he will be a legit slowdown killer too.
He just seems completely counter to what this game is about. If they're going to make it so easy for him to track and find surivors, they should drop his base movement a bit.
