    Considering how broken the RE launch was (and still is)? Not that tough an act to follow, really. I think all most folks want at this point is an update that doesn't break the game even more. Our expectations are that low.

    And tbh, even tho I love Candyman and want him in the game ... I don't see a problem with him following up the Resident Evil chapter.


    I mean, sure it might not have the same hype as Resident Evil, but this is exactly why I don't see it being released as an anniversary chapter. I think those would be saved for some bigger franchises.


    Again, I want Candyman, but I see some other franchise reserve the spot for anniversary events more than him, and Candyman being released at other chapters in the year.

  • I'm here for all the Candyman memes with every new chapter, buuut bringing Candyman chapter around the time of movie release makes enough sense to me.

    And even if he's not released then I'm pretty sure we're gonna get him sooner or later. Tony is a huge horror fan and I think would be happy to take part in the project. I don't get another bunch of people saying he wouldn't fit or be included because he's not that popular of a horror icon.


    Also, can someone remind me what was happening with that tweet DbD account made a long time ago? Bees and honey and skull, if I remember correctly? I'm pretty sure they tried to deflect and say it doesn't have any connection to the Candyman, but it really looked like they were implying something with it.

  • I know people are against the rocket launcher but I feel like even that could be scary and awesome, if implemented right.

    It wouldn't be his primary power probably, but something that he builds up to and can be only used a few times.

    Just imagine working on a gen and you suddenly spot a red dot and line aiming towards you. Or hearing the noise of the upcoming missile.


    I believe Nemesis can be the most unique out of the bunch.

  • I loved it when I first started it and I still love it.


    I'm a huge sucker for horror and DbD is like the Smash of horror. I find it soo cool when characters from different franchises are running along side each other.


    The game has it's ups and downs but I still find it super fun.

  • I don't want Lady D or her daughters in DbD simply because they're not as iconic as Nemesis or Mr. X.


    However to say that they don't fit because of the lore? This is one of the most overused excuses people say on these forums. If BHVR wanted to add some killer they could make it work.

  • No he's not. He's a monster from a horror game, that isn't out of DbD's style which wants to widen the roster of killers.


    Him just shooting his rocket launcher the whole match would be out of style, but giving him the power of brute strenght or some tentacles, with maybe a rocket launcher as his second ability, would work.

    Those were the first franchises that came into my mind, when i saw the All Kill release.

    Sure sure. Because being flashy immidiately means "NO HORROR" right? The Trickster might be more stylized but he's still a psychopath who murders people for his own pleasure.

  • @Dito175 said:

    https://forum.deadbydaylight.com/en/discussion/comment/2147297#Comment_2147297

    I think you could make everything fit lorewise, this post is just full of excuses.

    Exactly.


    Even with Pennywise you could write it off as the Entity striking a deal with that cosmic being. Or capturing some weak form of It (The Loser's Club was able to defeat Pennywise so why couldn't the Entity). Idk so many options.

  • This again ...

    Sometimes I wish there wouldn't be any lore to the game because maybe then people would stop saying things like "PenNyWiSe CaNT be ADdED To THe GAmE" or something.


    I just want the Smash of horror. And Dbd is giving it to me. I really don't care how the Entity drags Pennywise into the realm, I just wanna see it and other famous killers in the game.

  • I believe they can do so much more with Nemesis than Mr. X.

    And they don't even need to include Nemesis' rocket launcher. But if they do, I still feel like it would fit in the game. It would probably be a secondary power. Something to unlock. It could slow him down and give a red dot aiming sign that both survivors and the killer could see.

    It would also let out an aerial noise when fired and I think that would be pretty scary. Imagine doing a generator and hearing a missile approach.


    Again, the rocket launcher would probably be a secondary power or it wouldn't even be included.


    YET I still think Nemesis is a better choice than Mr. X. Even without the rockets. He can do the same things like brute strenght and rushing, while still looking iconic.

  • I usually put aesthetic before killer's power when it comes to me liking themand The Twins just aren't that appealing to me. They seem kinda boring.

  • Seeing all the Scooby Doo suggestions just shows how childish and hypocritical the community is.

    God forbid you add a killer with the ties to K-Pop even tho he's a psychopath. Or want Five Nights at Freddy's ...


    But Scooby Doo? Sure, why the hell not?

    And don't get me wrong, I'm all up for Scooby Doo. Even if just as character skins. I'm down for everything as long as it explores different tropes of horror. I just find it stupid that people literally want something from a kid's show but most of other actual HORROR icons don't fit in according to them lol.

  • @chargernick85 said:

    1. Alien will always be my dream chapter. I will also be disappointed when a licensed character is released and it's not it. However others I would like to see in game as close 2nds, 3rds, and what nots.
    2. IT - The real clown should be in dbd (Pennywise the dancing clown) not the fat out of breath Subway diet needing one we have.
    3. Jason - It pains me to say this but he deserves to be here with the rest of his iconic buddies. I hated the movies thought they belonged in a trashcan and set on fire but he is iconic regardless.
    4. Chucky - same as Jason pretty much I just personally like the movies more. Everything else needs to sit the fuk down at the kiddy table until these fellas have arrived.

    That's so me with every licensed chapter hahah.

    Don't get me wrong, I am SUPER EXCITED for Resident Evil and any licence, but whenever it is revealed and it's not Alien ... I'm kinda like: "Darn it."


    I literally wrote WE NEED MORE MONSTER KILLERS at the end of the survey.

  • @Seraphor said:

    Either way, we all know the name of the killer is going to be "The Tyrant".

    Pyramid Head isn't called Pyramid Head, he's "The Executioner".

    "The Tyrant" is going to have a basic skin, probably something like this:

    https://game.capcom.com/residentevil/image/digitalarchive/image/0013036l.jpg

    Or this:

    https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/residentevil/images/6/69/Unidentified_Tyrant_Render.png/revision/latest?cb=20171215033735

    And then it will have Legendary skins for 'Nemesis' and 'Mr. X'.

    They're not gonna go for some character that doesn't immidiately say it's Resident Evil.


    Nemesis and Mr. X are a lot more known, even to people who haven't played Resident Evil that much.

  • @Decarcassor said:

    https://forum.deadbydaylight.com/en/discussion/comment/2123865#Comment_2123865

    Then again I ask. Would you rather have a heavily watered down Nemesis compared to what he is capable of in the RE games, or a faithfull T-103 who is 100% going to have a Legendary Nemesis skin ?

    I respect your opinion, but I think this is a kind of a sad excuse for not wanting certain killers in the game.


    Let's be fair, Freddy could do a lot more stuff too, if he were the exact movie replica.


    I'd rather have Nemesis, even if he couldn't use all of his powers. He simply has more room to play around when it comes to power. Brute strenght (Just like Mr.X) plus tentacles and rocket launcher.

  • @Dabihwow said:

    The problem I have is I don't really think there is that much he could do thats any different from the other killers, A rocket launcher imo just feels way to over the top for DBD, He can't use his tentacles because we have Deathslinger nor can he use it like he does in Resistance because we have PH. The only thing I think he can do thats unique is smash through a wall which was a concept killer in pre DBD days, if thats all he could do then there is no reason for Mr.X take his space

    I actually don't think a rocket launcher is too much.

    They could make it like a secondary ability that has a long cooldown. Also, the longer he'd charge the rocket the further it would fly. When traveling it'd let out a noise that would get louder the closer it gets. I think it would be pretty thrilling and intense.


    Overall, I believe Nemesis has so much more room to work around than Mr. X.

  • @EvilJoshy said:

    I really feel RE does not fit into dbd. The trickster chapter must have REALLY sucked if they are teasing it so soon after release.

    Are you for real?

    What fits into DbD then?


    Damn you're imagination must be low if you think only slasher killers are fit for DbD.

  • Nope.

    As cool as she looks, she doesn't deserve it.


    Nemesis and Mr. X are more iconic. Especially Nemesis has a lot more room to work with (Power based).

  • I think the chances of getting a duo are really high here.

    Usually you have one character taking the main spot or being called “the scream queen” in a horror genre, but both Chris and Jill, and Leon and Claire have almost the same level of importance in the games.

  • @Xzan said:

    I prefer the idea of humans getting turned into Killers. Things like demogorgon should be an exception.

    Why should they be an exception?

    The more varied the killers the more fun.


    I don’t get this forum’s fascination by only slasher movie type killers and wanting to have everything fit the same box. This is why I was so surprised when Trickster got hated on for being more flashy.

    Not everything needs to be human, dark, gritty, deformed.

  • @Dabihwow said:

    https://forum.deadbydaylight.com/en/discussion/comment/2081567#Comment_2081567

    As much as Xeno would be a neat addition I don't think its ever going to happen, why? DIsney, thats why, Bhvr would have to spend a ######### ton of money to even remotely have a Alien Chapter

    Yeah, I guess it is a bit tougher to get the license now, but don't you think it's still possible? We got Silent Hill and everyone knows how selfish Konami is.

    Plus there's Fortnite that got Xeno. If BHVR wanted to profit a lot from the hype of an Alien chapter they could spend a bit more if needed.

  • @Jarol said:

    The community has always been wrong when a killer is speculated, many said last year to Candyman and Springtrap, the least expected happened, PH, if they speculate to RE and Springtrap, I am sure that the killer will be Alien or Chucky or something unimaginable, Jason himself.

    I really hope you're right. Usually they give us hints that make us things something completely else than what is being released.


    I don't mind a RE chapter but damn I wish for Xeno.

  • @[Deleted User] said:

    I don't think there any licensed left they can either get or honestly would fit the game very well.

    I don't think they are done with licensed killers, just I suspect there will be less and less.

    Whenever I see a comment like this I laugh. So delusional.

    There's still so many unique horror movies, games and series to explore and a lot of the killers there would easily fit the game.

  • @Zarr0ch said:

    https://forum.deadbydaylight.com/en/discussion/comment/2038628#Comment_2038628

    Dwight, Meg, Feng, Jake, Nea, Yui, Claudette, Jake, David, Kate, Jane, Felix, Zarina, Elodie.

    There has been more than enough chance. Yui could have been Indian, My not Felix? etc etc

    What? Yui is not Indian because the devs decided to make her Japanese?

    And Felix is German. The name is common in Germany. Why would he be Indian?

  • @UnentitledBunnyMan said:

    So killers are suppose to use those weak ass M1 killers and get looped and taunted and bullied by red rank sweaty SWFs? I don't like playing with small pp build survivors for like several years but guess what? Small pp build still exist. U don't like playing with nurse or spirit, how about u don't get to play at all because all killers either quit or go AFK or use cheats when he find he's gaming with OoO SWF on comms?

    Btw I don't main spirit or nurse. Maybe they buff all other killers 0.2m/s or something that makes them have a chance when facing good SWF on comms then people will start using other killers. Survivors queue are taking forever and u still complian about some killer are using the character u dislike. Maybe when the game queue time for survivors reach to 1 hour then u will find this game is dead, because u'r such entitled persons that nobody wants to play with u at all.

    Damn ... This is such a childish and lazy way to tackle balance issues.

    There are plenty of things that need changing on both killer and survivor sides, but you don't ignore the problems of one because of another.

  • @Chordyceps said:

    So, I'm working on something in advance for the creativity contest, which is a power I'd like to see in the game. To keep things vague, so I don't give away too much before it actually happens, a killer with some kind of control over the weather would be cool.

    That would be dope. And different weather probably different effect on the game.

  • @[Deleted User] said:

    It wouldn't be a very powerful ability on its own, but something like what Amaru can do in Rainbow Six Siege would be pretty cool imo.

    First time hearing about her so I looked her up and damn, giving me some Attack on Titan vibes haha. Nice.

  • @Orion said:

    https://forum.deadbydaylight.com/en/discussion/comment/2032173#Comment_2032173

    I'd say it's not as popular as you think and that I don't want the toxic portion of its fanbase in DbD.

    I agree with your previous comment saying that it didn’t redefine the horror game genre. We could say that if it would bring something new and innovative to the table, but it didn’t. Jump scares where common even before FNAF.


    However I disagree with the games not being popular. They most definitely are. Probably not as much lately but that’s what happens to most media after some time. But there is a huge following and because of the simplicity of the games even non-gamers tried them out.

  • @Orion said:

    No.

    https://forum.deadbydaylight.com/en/discussion/comment/2032122#Comment_2032122

    Hag at least attacks you. There's some gore there. From what I've seen of FNAF, your deaths are literally just a doll showing up on your screen and a black screen.

    I mean if FNAF were to be added it'd definitely have to be changed to suit the game, meaning no basic jump scares and black screens. They could probably have the Springtrap's power revolve around controling the areas with other animatronics and them chasing or jumping at you when spotted.

  • @Blindninja said:

    https://forum.deadbydaylight.com/en/discussion/comment/2031375#Comment_2031375

    No dude I mean child content. Killers for kids. Spring trap is for kids. This is an adult game.

    I don't know what's worse ...

    That the person writing this could be a 12 year old trying to act "mature" OR a 25 year old who thinks the game would be less suited for adults if they added a SERIAL KILLER who got stuck and killed by his own creation and now continues the spree as an animatronic.

  • I love it. I use it on my stealthy Cheryl build along with Spine Chill, Iron Will and Diversion.

    And no, I don't crouch walk from one side of the map to the other. I love using to break off from chases and then trick the killer with my mighty pebble haha. It's a really fun build that let's me be stealthy, but I DON'T play selfishly and just hide.

  • @Marc_go_solo said:

    To celebrate 5 years they'll need to put out a big franchise. "Resident Evil" would be a good bet,although since "Fortnight" got an "Alien" addition recently, it shows that the "Alien" franchise is still happy to appear in other games. Maybe "Friday 13th", but I am less certain on that.

    Friday the 13th coming for 10th anniversary! Lol.


    Also I'm super jealous of Fortnite getting Xeno before DbD haha

  • Man, I would be so excited if it were Xeno from Alien. It's all I wish for. However I fear we won't get that DLC for quite some time. The next one is probably Resident Evil, which I'm also hyped for. But we also can expect another original and if there's gonna be any licensed chapter that's hugely speculated it's Candyman.

    So sadly I don't see Xenomorph coming for at least 2 or 3 chapters. :( Would be awesome to be wrong tho!

  • @Ihatelife said:

    https://forum.deadbydaylight.com/en/discussion/comment/1996579#Comment_1996579

    Pyramid Head? Ghost Face, Myers, Pig jumpsaceres?

    Disturbing killers like twins? Legion's halloween skin that is distrubly grotesque?

    I readed his lore and it didn't affect me in any way.

    People have different tastes. But don't talk like he ruins the whole mood od DbD. He's a killer. He's acting eccentric and psychopatic. In his lore it's said he loves to torture others and record their screams.


    Maybe you're not excited about him, but not every killer needs to be grotesque or ugly or disfigured.

    And for example, I find the Twins utterly boring. Sure you've got Victor trying to jump on you, but for me their aesthetic isn't the favorite. I still don't say they ruin the whole mood of the game.

  • @Munqaxus said:

    Well, here's the results so far...

    Looks like Trickster is easily winning the Lamest Killer Contest.

    https://us.v-cdn.net/6030815/uploads/0JQFEJ3HTD9W/image.png

    Makes this thread without a poll so he can count all the votes himself. Then counts a vote for the Trickster when a user slightly mentions him, EVEN THO they say someone else is actually worse. Lol.

    Good job my man. Getting off on that Trickster hate don't you?

  • @Yatol said:

    Least creppy: clown looks silly when he walks

    While I think Trickster does fit, he does fit the least. Only counter argument I heard was about skins that players where using ( those are non canon skin, Trickster CANONICALLY looks like Joker Goro Majima) or someone brought killers that don't have supernatural elements don't fit ( missing the whole point of horror)

    Killers that aren't supernatural don't fit? What?


    Do you know how many genres of horror there are? Not everything is supposed to be supernatural.

  • Cool. I like your honesty. If you like darker and creepier killers, that's fine. Everyone has a different taste. I for example love sci-fi horror and want more creatures (Like the Xenomorph).


    But I still have to disagree about The Trickster not being horror. Because horror is such a wide genre and comes in many different forms. Simple serial killers, normal people who go crazy, monsters, ghosts, aliens, demons, cryptids, sci-fi ...

  • @vacaman said:

    https://forum.deadbydaylight.com/en/discussion/comment/1989712#Comment_1989712

    Of course i'm against stupid cosmetics, but this is even worse because its base kit. "Horror game" btw. I was against legion because they were just edgy teenagers that liked killing for fun and didn't look very "scary" but this is just a pretty twink with blood in his face. And not to talk about his animation while throwing daggers looks like he has a buttplug in his ass.

    So the killer for you should only be ugly? Old? Disfigured? Dark?


    Because you're acting like horror doesn't encompass anything else. Check out The Neon Demon, check out The Purge ... Check out plenty of other media that has different horror variations.


    And since you have a Pig for the profile icon. She's literally a woman who was an addict. She isn't even the main antagonist of the franchise she's from. But yeah, she wears a pig mask so "horror" right?

  • @MeltingPenguins said:

    I'd say people dislike him because he's flashy, but the real problem is what impression he's cementing

    The game is at a point where the 'new chapter every quarter brings new killer and surv with three perks each' formula isn't oanning out anymore. Yet the devs insist on it, much to the harm of the game and the community. If the meadow's flooded you'll drown your cows, no matter how green it was a year ago, as the saying goes.

    The new killer is a more imbalanced and weaker version of what you could get if you combine huntress, legion and deathslinger. There's a sense of lack of inspiration, something that has already been present with the past events, challenges and cosmetics. it feels he's there because it'll draw attention and 'hopefully' new customers in the form of kpop fans.

    All in all the new chapter feels (not necessarily is ) like proof that the devs are definitely out of ideas and really ought to look into new ways of making money from the game.

    I love his aesthetic and design, makes him really unique.


    But I agree with the power. There's a bit of a disconnect. And I feel like it's been that for a while now. This is why I much more prefer licensed chapters. Because I know that the killer will have a really strong base from which they can build an interesting mechanic.


    Still love the Trickster, simply because he's different and I love his eccentric attitude. I do wish his power was different but oh well. Still gonna try him out.

  • @Terro said:

    https://forum.deadbydaylight.com/en/discussion/comment/1991185#Comment_1991185

    None of this has much to do with what I'm talking about. I'm saying the trickster feels like a typical villain. I'm not saying that horror movies can't have normal looking or flashy people.

    You're not even making sense. You started this discussion by saying the Trickster doesn't belong in DbD and then can't even tell us why you feel like that. You just hide behind the questions: is it his clothes? His hair? His attitude? We'll never know I guess?


    And then you say that someone with a freaking spoon would be a better fit than him? What ...

  • So they would be scary if you met them in real life but they don't belond in DbD? Mkay.

    And like someone else here said, there's plenty of killers in DbD that are just like a normal villain? Clown is a fat dude with makeup, but I guess he's immidiately considered scary because he's a clown.

    Let's not forget Ghostface. I love him, I love Scream franchise, but he's a killer getting of messing with other people and just having a mask. But he gets a pass because he's well known I guess.

    Meanwhile The Trickster is eccentric and psychopatic and he loves torturing people.

  • @DragonMasterDarren said:

    the next time i hear someone tell me "Trickster isn't scary because he's too bright and flamboyant" i'm going to just how a picture of any iteration of Joker that isn't Leto or Phoenix and say "Trickster and this guy have the same energy"

    But didn't you hear man? Horror is only horror if it's ugly, disfigured, old, dark ...

  • @Squirrel_Thicc said:

    He doesn't fit in with the theme of the game. His sounds, animations, design, power, and music don't fit well with dbd. But that's my opinion, I'm allowed to have my opinion and you're allowed to have yours. Don't tell me that "my arguements don't make sense" because we're not trying to argue anything. We're giving opinions.

    Cool. Yes, you're entitled to your opinion, but I honestly disagree.

    He's acting eccentric and psychopatic. His breathing and laughing is creepy, his powers are knives so? But if you dislike that, cool.


    You lost me at music tho. Because that's such a reach. What about his music doesn't fit in? it's distorted and creepy? It's not like they added literal K-pop

  • @GeneralV said:

    Pretty much anything would have been better than that... thing we got today. So I like your suggestion.

    Stop crying.


    I'm shocked that people are so uncreative that they think a horror icon or a killer can only be someone ugly, old, disfigured, masked, dressed in dark tones ... Because eccentric and crazed killers have never been done right? Jesus.

  • @VexTheHex said:

    These stretches are laughable sad. You don't like this Killer, move on! I wasn't big on Blight or Spirit for different reasons, but I accept they exist for others to enjoy. I like this new guy cause he stands out and hits a theme as hard as Oni does. He's the psychological and unhinged side of horror where the handsome dude is actually some sort of mentally sick person bent on putting on a performance of death and thrills. He knocks it out of the park with literally everything. The sound, music, looks, and animations is all of a show stopping performer bent on homicidal practices.

    Also remember we already got Amanda and Ghost Face who were good looking people who played good guys but were homicidal maniacs. So why you ain't mad at them? Cause they got ugly clothes on? This guy is a performer and craves attention, he isn't dressing in rags.

    People think that nothing but dark tones exist in horror. They're so boring and uncreative that they only see killers as someone who's ugly or disfigured or masked.

  • Bunch of edgy 10 year olds who think that horror is limited only to UGLY, DISFIGURED, OLD, MUTATED, MASKED and whatever else killers.


    But yeah. Eccentric murderers with crazed laughter ... Never happened before.

  • Ahhhhh yessss. Another person who thinks killers only have to be UGLY, DISFIGURED, DRESSED IN DARK TONES etc.

  • I love his design! He seems really unique.

    I hate when people think that killers can only be ugly, old, disfigured and masked ... Like what?


    The only thing I find a bit boring is his power but still. Really cool.

  • Not really a solo build, but I love playing Babysitter Steve the most when I do play alone. Helping out with Prove Thyself, Streetwise, Botany Knowledge and Empathy. Having a med kit or toolbox with me as well.


    But the build I do best with is on my Sneaky Cheryl. Urban Evasion, Iron Will, Spine Chill and Diversion. And no, I don't crouch across the whole map. I just love breaking off from chases with Urban and using Diversion to trick the killer.

1 2 3
