Anyone else come to the horrifying realization that the Deathslinger..

Is basically a Smoker from Left4Dead?

*Bill PTSD intensifies*

  • Smoker was my Jam. F Boomers and Hunters, just gimme that sweet long tongue action <3

  • I had that thought initially, was a bit confused when he couldn't trap survivors against walls by pulling them from above lol.

    He doesn't work vertically? All my Haddonfield dreams, crushed.

  • Anyone else realize that Zarina is basically Val from Evolve (another game by the Left 4 Dead devs)

  • It's not just him. Demogorgon has that Hunter like leap. Plague has that Boomer like handicapping bile. Too a lesser extent, Huntress has ranged damage like Spitter, and Hillbilly charges across map to murder like Charger.

    A killer like jockey might actually be hilarious. Jump on a survivor to incapacitate them and try to steer them at other survivors to attack.

    Dude I think you just came up with a way for chucky to be a playable killer. Now all you need to do is solve the visibility problem and the "how would be carry or hook a survivor?" problem and maybe we can make it happen haha.

    Oh, I didn't even think about that. I did want to see Chucky in the game. He might have to drag downed survivors and yeet them at hooks.

    I think the visibility would be into his favor to make him harder to see coming. Though his own vision might have to be a bit higher so he's not a total pain to play as.

  • Did you mean, Scorpion?

    Or maybe Batman when he pulled a dude with his grappling hook? (Which probably happened somewhere in the golden age)


    These aren't new concepts.


    Someone that hits you with some long range thing and pulls you in? Done before.

    It's all in the execution and what makes this character unique from the others.

    Hunter has a headcrab like leap from half-life.

    Boomer has the explosion on death from... pretty much everywhere. And the projectile vomiting of the exorcist girl.

    Literally any guy with a gun has ranged damage like the spitter if you wanna be that broad. And plague would be the better aproximation.

    Charger charges accross the map like hulk in ultimate smash. Or the guy with rockets on superbomberman 4.


    If you work too broad, you'll get connections everywhere. Think of what makes the characters unique instead.

    Anyone else realizes Zarina's last name is a meme in russian community because Cassir literally sounds like "Кассир" that means cashier.
