Idk maybe add a gen buff since Feng is a Technician
Tier 1 noise notification +5% gen speed for 3 seconds
Tier 2 noise notification +10% gen speed for 4 seconds
Tier 3 noise notification +15% gen speed for 5 seconds or something like that
That might be way too much tho
Fix Technician to full silence while we're at it. I think it sucks that you have to use a yellow addon in conjunction with Technician to make it fully work.

Could work, kinda like spine chill which also gives repair buff while active.

and yeah.. Technician seems like it should actually be a perk about being good at gens but in the end it’s just a perk for new players that kinda hinders the team either way.. weird perk.

in Alert Comment by Mooks July 22, 2021

Hm not a bad idea, what would the perk tiers do differently then though?

and one thing I like about alert especially when playing solo is that I get to know who the killer is almost always early on..

in Alert Comment by Mooks July 22, 2021

Spirit outfit looks great and still fits with her Japanese theme. Subjective opinion of course.

It clearly is a candle. It has a candle wick and is shaped exactly like the other candles, getting pointy at the non-wick end. Objective fact.

and Jonathan is a more prominent character for the entire Stranger Things series. Would have loved robin as well, but nothing wrong with adding him.

I'd literally rather tunnel anyone who has it out of the game than get hit by it.

Same here. My eyes cant handle bright images. I was so happy when I found this out

Lightborn or don’t look while kicking the gen (that seemingly has an indicator that it has the effect)

i am all for accessibility setting and changing the blind for Killers definitely belongs to it, but you can easily avoid it and the survs can’t know that it is affecting you in that way.

wdym? Quentin got a face rework on the 5.1.0 PTB.

Watch the date of the OP, at that point Quentin wasn’t even confirmed to get a rework.

in About the new models. Comment by Mooks July 22, 2021

If they haven’t fixed it, it’s not a bug that’s always effective as I versed a Clown last week where I definitely got slowed down by the gas..

in did they fix clown's bottles doing nothing yet Comment by Mooks July 22, 2021

There was a bug that didn’t unlock the second crown for everyone. This got fixed later on, but for the people that were affected the devs needed to give out the crowns manually (no second match needed)

if you haven’t gotten it yet you should create a support ticket

A Pig Addon or Plague Addon that Incapacitated Survivors for a Duration after Searching a Jigsaw Box or Cleansing could be interesting, but not as core parts of their Powers.
I'm personally not really a fan of this status, especially when used to rob Players of agency from afar, with no clear connection to the Killer. It just doesn't make all that much sense:
The Gen blew up, but I can't repair it for some reason? (Eruption should block the Generator for a duration, and when the block ends cause it to erupt, like a virus growing, Survivors still scream when the Entity blocks it)
I got hit with a Hatchet, but now for some reason I can't get into a Locker or try to Unhook this Survivor?

You can still enter lockers.

For me the incapacitated status would make sense for max infection and RBT traps. For max infection you are sick, vomit and cough all the time, why would you be able to casually repair a generator in that condition when you should be out and trying to heal yourself, also for RBT, you have a device in your Head that can tear apart your skull but you are working on something that actually activated this device instead of trying to remove it ASAP?

maybe for the RBT the status effect could only be there when the trap actually got activated though.

i do agree that it doesn’t make much sense on hatchets. Actually I already forgot that Addon existed.

in Incapacitated Plague Comment by Mooks July 22, 2021

Bees. Either as projectile or AI based swarm or even trap-based(?). Probably inflicting some kind of status effect.

Mirrors as some form of teleportation, like Freddys gen teleport or Demos portals. Maybe also more like Hags traps (in the movies a human had to be at the mirror I assume? Haven’t seen it yet tbh)

His voice could be used as a unique terror radius/chase music. Or like Trickster/Plague.

in CandyMan: A Question For You All! Comment by Mooks July 22, 2021

Why exactly would this perk need a direct counter? It’s just a short stun/blind and doesn’t even prevent you from kicking the gen directly after that… it has limited uses (well theoretically not but the surv has got to sit a long time on a gen for one activation)..

in For all the killers that say you cant do anything against Blast Mine Comment by Mooks July 21, 2021

Wait, is this a current survey? Kinda don’t remember there being a survey for the RE chapter..?

if something is relevant, it's relevant, no? People care about the weirdest things.

To be fair, I have seen relevant topics ‚resurrected‘ without them getting closed..

and this could still be considered bumping old threads, which is against forum rules..

so maaaaybe, the mods just did their job for those mentioned threads?

@PalletsAndHooks said:
Sometimes people bring up 2-yr old threads of the same problems we are experiencing today and the mods immediately take action by closing those forums. Selective Speech Squadron GO!

Instead of reopening a pretty much dead thread you could create a new one if it’s a relevant topic and it would not get closed..

in We're Pretty Vocal Comment by Mooks July 21, 2021

I don’t think the old models are fitting as they probably also created the new models because of unified animations and such. Thus the old face models would probably bug out and have clipping issues (and here is to hope the mouth/teeth issues of the PTB models are fixed in the live version.. otherwise my argument isn’t really valid 😅)

Do you have a screenshot?

if you think this is a bug/unintended effect I suppose a bug report would make sense:

in Slingers new cosmetic weapon blocks the iron sights Comment by Mooks July 20, 2021

Got all crowns for all characters (killers and survs), got Jill and Leon on P3 and thus having all survs on P3, leveled all survs so that each has at least 2 event items of every type (some already had from last year) and accumulated way too many shards and waiting for outfits to buy or next original chapter to get and immediately buy recolors for the new chars I guess

again I would be more likely to buy skins for those killers if the killers themselves weren't bad
for example trickster. great skins, weak killer. I want to buy his skins but he's so weak, what's the point?

Yeah. Don’t buy the skins for Trickster.

others clearly see a point as most tricksters I see are wearing skins.

you are not supposed to buy all the skins..

in I would be more likely to buy killer skins if the killers themselves weren't bad. Comment by Mooks July 20, 2021

Then… don’t buy skins for killers you don’t play? It’s really as easy as that. BHVR doesn’t force you to buy any skins, at all..

and for licensed killers they just are able to get more (or any) cosmetics out.. that’s also the same as for licensed survivors..

in I would be more likely to buy killer skins if the killers themselves weren't bad. Comment by Mooks July 20, 2021

That would be an entirely different asymmetrical horror game concept and doesn’t sound like DbD..

i tried to make a killer concept for the Blair Witch with DbD mechanics in mind:

@Mooks said:
Elly Kedward, The Blair Witch
This Killer Concept is based on my (loose) memory of the film the Blair Witch Project and Blair Witch 2. I have not seen the 2016 movie but read a summary of the plot. I know that my power concept may be partly countered by SWF but I tried to play around this.
Appearance:
Tricky since afaik she is never seen in her movies. But I think there is an official video game that kind of depicts her. It would also be cool to have her be a shadowy/foggy figure without a defined face and all, but enough to depict her as humanoid..
Power: Possession
The Blair Witch can make herself be completely invisible, while in this form, a normal attack does not injure a survivor but possess him. Turning back to normal form from invisible will take some seconds and you will not be able to attack immediately (as to not be used as a better wraith).
When you possess a survivor you get to control his character, you can perform basic survivor actions (repairing, vaulting, searching chests, etc but not unhooking, unsure about healing, repairing will regress the gen slightly instead of really repairing) but mainly you can attack other survivors. You will have the undetectable status effect while possessing a survivor. Your crouching is normal walking speed, normal walking is 4m/s or 100% speed and sprinting will be 115% movement speed. Vaulting will always be slow vault speed. You can’t end the possession at will.
When you are possessed as survivor you will not notice it on first glance. You will be in a sort of parallel/Halluzination world. Repairing can be done but if you finish a gen it will not be counted as a finished gen and can be repaired again. You can’t open exit gates. Searching through chests will open the chest without revealing an item. You can see other survivors doing what they are doing in the real world. You can find humanoid stick figures (4 total) and destroy them. After the first one is destroyed, another random one will be revealed to you per aura. (They can be placed where jigsaw boxes/plague fountains/alarm clocks are placed). Destroying every figure will end the possession, you are placed where your possessed body was and the witch will be placed where you were when ending possession.
The last survivor alive cannot be possessed. If a survivor is possessed while the second to last dies he has a remaining time to destroy all figured to end possession. Works kind of like end game collapse, you will be snacked by Entity if you can’t escape possession. The hatch is also available while possessed.
Perk 1: Don’t look
While the totem is active, a survivor will be exposed after looking directly at the killer for x/y/z seconds, the effect will remain 3 seconds after looking away from killer. (Reuse Ghostface revealing mechanic, looking away and immediately to the killer will not interrupt the duration; this is supposed to change the normal chase where survivors pretty much always watch behind what the killer is doing; depending on balance)
Perk 2: Hex: Mark of the Witch
You are obsessed with a survivor. While the totem is active the obsession will see your aura while looking in your direction. You can kill the obsession when in dying state after they stun you 4/3/2 times. (Kind of an anti-OoO Perk, since they will not know the aura comes from this Hex; if you don’t use OoO and see the killer search for totem or avoid stuns!)
Perk 3: Hallucinations
Survivors have a slightly/moderate/tremendous chance of perceiving hallucinations of other killers such as: Hearing sounds (Wraith bell, Billy’s/bubbas chainsaw), seeing props (Pigs Jigsaw boxes, Plagues fountains) and traps (Trappers traps, Hags marks) and others (Doctors illusions, Demos portals). Moving towards it will make them disappear.
Some of my other concepts (Feedback and suggestions always welcome):
Killers: The Ice Queen, Hannibal, Charlie(The Darkness), The Blair Witch, The Firebreather, The Photographer
Survivors: Aria Morrison, Lukas Schmidt, Paitoon Saeli
Survivor Items: Pocket Knife, Sling Shot, Spray Paint Cans, Salt Pouch, Smoke Bomb, Voodoo Doll, Smudge Sticks
Game mechanics: Horror tropes, Expanded survivor objectives, Spider Webs

@Crowman said:
There are plenty of perks survivors have that don't have downsides to them.
Iron Will could probably be reduced to 75% at T3 since we've been getting conditional perks that also reduce your injured sounds by 100% as well and why would you ever run those over iron will?

Agreed on that. Currently Iron Will overshadows every of those perks and IW is one of the base character perks..

Unlimited complete silence while injured also just doesn’t make sense, it may not be overpowered but neither are many of the other perks that get balance changes..

in Iron Will should have downsides. Comment by Mooks July 20, 2021

The license holder would probably rather see Chucky in a complete new chapter of they are interested in the inclusion in DbD at all. Just from a marketing standpoint, but also possible income of course.

also, currently Victor is not implemented to even get different skins, which probably needs much effort and resources.. can’t really tell what is easier to implement of course..

what about cross-play

Friend requests and swf is also possible for crossplay. The chat is just not there for console players..

in Option to stay as team after trial Comment by Mooks July 20, 2021

Cross progression would be cool for all platforms.

But this has definitely nothing to do with prioritization. It’s down to negotiations between BHVR and Sony/Microsoft. Steam, Stadia and Nintendo got it without problems after all (Nintendo confirmed to get it).

in Should cross progression for consoles and pc be prioritized? Comment by Mooks July 19, 2021

you actually have the option with endgame chat, friend requests and SWF.

i just did it yesterday, had really fun matches afterwards even though the initial one was best..

in Option to stay as team after trial Comment by Mooks July 19, 2021

its not even known if it will ever get released for Microsoft or Sony at all.

only Steam and Stadia have it already and Switch is following ‚soon‘. Nothing more can be confirmed at the moment.

in Cross-progression Comment by Mooks July 19, 2021

there are probably licensing issues with this mask I would assume, or does it also belong to Funworld?

we really only got the Ghostface mask because the license holder is not the same as the Scream license holder. As of now, we basically have nothing related to Scream in DbD..

in Can we please get this ghostface mask? Comment by Mooks July 19, 2021

If they are actual new players they might not even know that it alerts the killer and that pallets -especially shack pallet- are so valueable..

otherwise.. maybe they are just trolling. Or have a self made challenge. I saw a Streamer that had commands (one time use per match for all viewers), if a viewer made a command he needed to do it ASAP (eg throw the nearest pallet, use your exhaustion perk..)

Yea I just did that and the game starts up. I hope they can restore what I had. 5 years

My fingers are crossed.

i wouldn’t expect your progress to be completely gone though, at least they said when talking about legacy cosmetics (as some players lost them and didn’t get them back) that they improved the way they are storing this kind of stuff iirc
