Nah,the majority of this forum has to overreact all the time 🙄
Lets see what they do first with the add ons, but I'm personally hoping that one iridescent add on is something along the lines of Light-weight engine/chassis. Where Bubba does't lose movespeed when revving the chainsaw, but the chainsaw can only down one survivor before going into cool down.
as i say in other post:
in my opinion bubba need moderately increase the default chainsaw charge speed
and change the addons who increase it to do anything else like increase the chainsaw attack time or reduce the horizontal chainsaw hitbox
also while using the chainsaw attack we should be able to press M1/M2 to cancel it faster like when charging it.
edit: i remember some addons i want change:
Speed Limiter: apply deep wound on healed survivors, and down injured ones. with the extra bloodpoints. for both billy and bubba.
Primer Bulb: change rarity to ultra rare: make chainsaw completely silent.
I realize I'm building off of what could be something entirely different, but...
I really like the idea of a "hidden information" Bubba. I think this could make him an extreme contrast to Billy, with Bubba being more about Survivors not knowing things, him having less of a terror radius, etc. I say this because many of the scenes in TCM greatly contrast the quiet/safety when suddenly Bubba bursts in with a chainsaw. I'm intrigued.
In fact, the whole "hidden information" or delayed info is something I've long wanted to see in DBD. A survivor perk that only reveals that other survivors were unhooked when they would have gone into next death state instead of when they're unhooked. A perk that causes completed gens to wait 5+ seconds to light up after completed.
Oh they don't object to it. But it will make the games less fun which is deserved if they kill Bubba. He is A tier now, don't ruin him please.
It does tho ? The add-on description doesn't say that it applies the Blindness status effect, so just like Knock Out, this add-on should get countered by survivors aura reading perks.
That sounds cool. Now that undetectable and oblivious exist hopefully there'll be some good use of those as well.
Look at the developer notes. I think our boi needs to go to High A tier lol all depends on the add-ons.
As long as he keep the multi hit i be fine. Don't really get the whole charges cooldown.
If you haven't seen he's getting a base kit buff. He can't face camp anymore while also making him better with the chainsaw. Look it up, definitely interesting.
I'm worried about them killing his add-ons since I normally use Spark Plug and Vegetable Oil.
It literally fixes some of my biggest problems.
Though I will say I have no chance on winning the gameplay Guide contest anymore since mines is out of date..
Just give me one that slightly increases your lowest speed when charging the chainsaw. Even just 5% as a yellow add-on or something.
I asked about his movement speed. He said that will still be the same he just didn't know what the exact number was.
I also asked but never got a reply to a question. Is the cooldown for 1 charge now shorter than the current cooldown?
He can't camp anymore so they shouldn't complain much. I'm intrigued what the new add-ons will be like. Shop Lubricant doesn't affect cooldown anymore and Depth Gauge Rake doesn't affect bumping anymore.
Tell them to message me (literally type my name) and say leave their salt till after 9 when I'm getting my takeaway lol
Actually the new knock out requires you to use M1. Ability downs dont count anymore. But the downed survivor is gonna crawl slower and be blinded making it harder for him to locate survivors or if he is in swf group tell the others where he is.
Personally I dont think they needed to nerf the any part of knockout since no one was using it. But hey its a change to never used perk. It might help it might not. And we wont know how these will pan out till after the ptb is done. They have changed things before the changes went live. So calm down everyon till first of all we see all the addons. And second of all till we get to try Bubba and Billy. Honestly the charges mechanic to bubba sounds like what players like Otzdarva has call for. Something to end his ability early, to not waste more time than necessary and to give control over your ability back to the player.
Ofc I am an "outsider" here of sorts. Since I am excited for almost any changes, good or bad. Anything to mix it up a bit or to give life to unused, old or dead things.
The ending the ability early is something I've always wanted. In a game where every second counts it can make a huge difference. Also the chainsaw automatically working once it has been charged up is another massive buff to me.
Knockout already requires basic attacks. I made that post before they announced the changes, but the new Knockout is a straight buff. That means this addon is a worse version of current Knockout, which is a worse version of the new Knockout.
Does it? It sure doesnt say so. And they usually do. It just says dying survivors. And plenty of people claim otherwise. In any case I just cant see what the problem is. You can run addons that while weaker than the perks. Gives you a similar ability while not being equal in power to a perk. Gives you the option to run a, as an example, infectious fright build, with nemesis, pwyf, and pop/bbq or whatever feels good for you. It gives you options without giving the killer 5 perks. I really dont see the issue I actually really the idea behind this.
I have said in a different thread that I have been very dissapointed by the last few killer releases, in regards to their addons(Deathslinger and Pyramid Head specifically). Because all of the addons are just boring buffs. The iri addons being slightly different but nothing too out there. Compare that to meyers, hag, nurse even freddy and now billy/bubba addons. Buffs for the most basic addons sure. And then some purples and hopefully iridescent addons can present entirely new playstyles. I love that #########. So that every game on a killer isnt almost 100% the same no matter what.
