  • Just curious, nothing more. I find myself tending to buy them as they release nowadays simply because I already have the DLC collection so far, so why not? Well, sans Ghostface, but that's because I was away from the game, but will likely do so soon. How about you? Do you tend to buy them all? Just some? How come?

  • Ok so with this build the addons will be Fragment Tuft Of Hair+ J.Myers Memorial As for the perks, I was thinking Thanatophia, since I have tuft of hair the survivors doesn't need a reason to heal, and since they're injured this perk will kick in Bamboozle, its Myers, it's like the perk is made for him lol Infectious fright, so when I hit them it tells me the location of the other survi

  • So that Freddy rework will actually be playable. Ghost Face update destroyed killer queues because a killer was the only big piece of content. Throw survivors a bone/new toy in 3.1.0 Please so Freddy doesn't destroy the queues like Ghost Face all over again. We are just now getting to reasonable wait times weeks later.

  • Monstrous Shrine has always been a niche perk but it’s never really been rewarding enough for how situational it is. Why not take away some of its power and make it less situational to compensate. Current version: Basement Hooks are granted the following. 3/6/9% Faster Entity progression 5/10/15% increase on difficulty escape attempts 3/6/9% Increased penalty on escape failed

  • I was wondering if you can play at red rank without some sort of tunneling/focus down some survivors. I would like to give out a challenge. Play with any killer and you are only allowed to hook a survivor again, when every other survivor was hooked before. So you cannot hook a survivor without booking the other 3 before. If would like to hear your experience.

  • Playing this game is fun but it's very frustrating. spiders have so many double standards. They always say that we shouldn't tunnel or camp. but they can t bag drop pallets loop around and do everything they can to help them win but we're not allowed to do anything that can help us win. I know I can ignore all of it, so I play on PS4 so every time I do any of the things they don't want us to do t

  • In case you didn't think the title was important, it was: This is NOT a big thing. But can we have auras be visible behind his weapon while cloaked? It just feels weird to have auras disappear behind (close to) nothingness.

  • With all you said in the stream today, freddy looks really weak. let's talk about the micro sleep, This mechanic is good, i like the fact survivors will gradually fall asleep and you can attack at anytime, it's nice that he's a regular killer now. The traps and dream pallet These by itself should be 2 different power that you can chose before the match start at the gear menu, for exe

  • Note: This is a genuine question that I want to dig deep into and friendly work out the pros and cons about. If I’m in any way condescending, I apologize. Honestly, not trying to start a fight. Yes, I am a noob. I downloaded the game today, spent an hour reading the manuals, then jumped into gameplay for probably six hours straight. The game’s just got me hooked (get it? Sorry I’ll exit-).

  • Seems to be good in theory, poor and too weak in practice. Completely useless when 2 or more survivors repair the generator, i have barely more than 6 seconds to run the gen, i get frusrtated every time.. This perk should work something like this: When 12 seconds remain to repair a generator, you recieve a noise notification and your terror radius and red stain are removed for 12/13/15 seconds.

  • So since she is arguable one of the worst killers now, when will she get any love? End game piggy was one of the most fun ways to just have a good time without try harding and still get a kill or two, but since she now only can use her traps to mildly inconvinence the survivors during the trial and an ambush that reveal you before you strike. What and when is she getting a long needed buff/rework

  • Stalk survivor like 95%. Save for later. Later... Survivor breaks you out of stalk. Start to chase. When you get close instead of attacking, crouch instead. Keep crouching during the chase. Survivor will eventually stop and crouch with you (it is their language). Communicate with survivor until power recovers. Insta-stalk and down them. I call it a "Tea Party".

  • I was quite worried about this new Freddy. I like the current one and I felt like he just needed QoL changes. But these changes have changed my mind. I'm excited for this new Fred boi. I'm glad snares are base kit and I like how he can change playstyles with addons similar to Myers. I'm still a little iffy on the gen tp because survivors will already have gotten distance by the time you get there

  • This is super-disappointing. I'd much, MUCH rather have aura-reading on sleeping survivors, than a gen teleport. There is now a total lack of killers who are super, ruthlessly good at finding survivors without leaning on detection perks.

  • With the introduction of Ghost Face, Killers now have a total of 60 Perks, and since Ash's introduction, Survivors have 65. If you multiply each number by 3 - the amount of tiers per Perk - the numbers become 180 (Killer) and 195 (Survivor) . This is only for one Killer or Survivor - to get every single perk on a Killer or Survivor, you need to level up AT LEAST 180 or 195 times. This is assum

  • Every time I buy the newly released cosmetic I get tunneled, camped or mori'd all because I wear the new cosmetic. Hell, sometimes I try to test out my theory by wearing normal clothes and sure enough I get treated like a regular survivor when I don't wear the new cosmetics. People like to say survivors are toxic (partially true), but I do say that killers add to the toxicity just as much as they

  • The deep wound timer starts to go down if I'm in a chase and I use the Tinkerer skill or Beast of Prey or Dark Devotion? All these abilities allow you to decrease the terror radius to 0 for a certain time except Beast of Prey, i do not know if it reduces the terror radius too

  • There is couple of ways this could be tweaked. For example, ruin can still be cleansed and ds could be deactivated after the gens are powered because some people find it strong in the end game. What do you guys think? It would allow more diversity in the game in my opinion since most people use ds and ruin. Too many people.

  • Since they talked about "an" addon on stream it might indicate that they wish to make a single addon granting 10 pallets. I personally think it should be a series of Brown, Green/Yellow and Purple, granting 4, 7 and 10 respectively. This should make Freddy far more unpredictable as he should have access to game changing addons at wish without breaking the BP wallet.
