@Raging_Ryuga said:
I don't have a name for it, but a lot of people / killers hate decisive strike - correct? So instead of trying to change D strike... why not add a killer counter perk? Here's my idea:
Once per game, on a survivors first hook - a killer can roughly pull down on a survivor that is hooked, causing it to severely damage them, making the survivor instantly progress to stage 2 of their hook.

What do you guys think?

Pretty weak perk.
No where near the power of DS.

@Aerys said:

Add basic Skill Checks to Dull Totems (similar to the difficulty of a medkit) and moderately difficult Skill Checks to Hex Totems (similar to the difficult of a Generator). Failing a Skill Check will reduce progress by 30% of the bar.

Allow half the Cleansed progress to be kept upon breaking away. Note that if you were to spam cleanse this would halve the progress to near nothing.

Skill checks are beneficial to the survivor and would count as a nerf.
Same is keeping cleansing progress, it is already difficult enough to defend totems, so keeping any progress would be a huge nerf to totems.

I really start asking myself if you really want to buff killer or actually nerf them.

@Aerys Sorry, but your rework suggestions are weird.
I would like to see the simple fixes for his most pressing issues first, before everything is reworked from the ground up.

in Freddy Fixes Comment by Wolf74 November 23, 2018

@Aerys Where did you mention that survivor can't wake themself up? And actually they don't need to, since they wake up after a timer runs out.
That timer thing is a huge nerf and I do not see anything good that balances that out.
Right now having the whole team asleep for a prolonged part of the match is the most benefical situation you can get, when playing Freddy and your suggestion would ruin is greatest strength.

@Wolf74 that is the point but it's kind of dumb. If your going to camp your not going to be using it? With Devour Hope it makes sense as it's very strong when maxed out, so it balances itself by preventing any sort of interuption to saves at all. With Make Your Choice it makes sense as it would be super op. A token based system wouldn't make Pop Goes The Weasel super op, it would just make it useful.

But it would not make killer leave the hook and that is the primary idea behind the whole thing.
They just need to make the perk so good, that it is worth leaving the hook.
-Increase the timer
-show which gens are repaired to what degree
-done

@GT_Legend2 said:
I was thinking token based, no timer but tokens to use when you kick a gen

Again… the core mechanic of the perk is to reward the killer for leaving the hook.
With token to spend some other time, the system would not work.

@preetygoodforumsofar said:
i won't ask the dev to punish camp or tunnel but survivor should not depip or get less point if survivor get camped on the start of the match

Actually… why?
If you depip once every couple of matches, because you had bad luck being first on the hook and got camped, that should not really stop your ranking up.
On the other hand, if you are basically ALWAYS the first one on the hook and get camped, maybe it is a YOU problem and you should change your playstyle.

@Aerys said:
I'll put in my two cents, as though I thought about making a thread to balance him I heard the devs were already on it and thus didn't care. Either way, I feel like the best way to fix Freddy would be to cause his dream state to be more powerful overall but weaker at the same time, being not only his bread and butter but a punishment for those who aren't utilizing stealth properly. Ultimately I believe Freddy should be king of his domain and the Survivors caught within it should be scared for their lives. Here's the modified version I'd propose;

Power: Dream Demon
Death won't accept him and thus he remains, a calamity, indisputable master of his victims' nightmares. Dream Demon allows The Nightmare to pull Survivors into the Dream World.

Survivors who are awake do not see or hear The Nightmare.

Once targeted by The Nightmare power, Survivors enter the Dream Transition after some time.

During the Dream Transition (default: 10 seconds), they can see The Nightmare intermittently.

When the Dream Transition lapses, the Survivor is pulled into the Dream World.

Once in the Dream World:

Survivors are vulnerable to The Nightmare's attacks.

Survivors' Auras are revealed to The Nightmare every 7 seconds for 2 seconds.

Survivors suffer an action speed penalty of 10%.

Survivors suffer from Exhaustion.

Survivors constantly hear a low heartbeat as though on the edge of The Nightmare's Terror Radius.

Survivors will wake up from the Dream World after 90 seconds have lapsed or if hooked.

Erm… so you want to actually NERF him??

So tell me some things:
1. Why does the hatch open if other survivor already escaped?
2. Why do the survivor have a mechanic that avoids 4K matches, but the killer has no mechanic that avoids 4 escapes?
3. Why is the stand off in complete favor of the survivor?

1 - To let someone who isnt near a gate escape? seems a bit silly so I do agree 100% with this, it should close if any of the gates are opened.

2 - Technically a 4K should be hard to do it should never be the norm, in terms of balance 2 die 2 escape, the killer actually does have a mechanic to use and it is the complaint you will see a most from salty players called camping.

3 - The standoff is just a silly term used by salty stubborn people who simply wont let it go, yes the hatch is in favour of the survivor and it is being worked on but anyone who stands there for a prolonged period havign a standoff out of shear stubborness instead of just moving on to the next match only has themselves to blame, personally I just hit them or jump in and let them grab me if they so wish.

Why should he escape through the hatch, if he can just go for the gate?
4k are already hard to get and are not "the norm". So still there is no mechanic that works for the killer like the hatch is working for the survivor. No, camping is not the answer, because the killer has to weaken his own gameplay during the match by wasting time camping to secure that 1k, while the hatch does not need the survivor to waste any time before. They just have to do what they should do anyway.
I don't do stand offs either. But in general, it favors the survivor. Beside being stubborn and waiting for the grab, the killer can't do anything to avoid the survivor getting that hatch.

Killer gets 3 kills and 1 escapes... Who cares just move onto the next game. 3 kills mean you did a great job.

1 Survivor escaping every now and then is fine and getting that 4th kill is like a bonus. I'm getting tired of seeing these how to fix hatch standoffs post.

Killer shouldn't be expecting a 4K every damn game. Stop having these ridiculous standoffs that waste time for both of you... Just let that survivor have the hatch and say gg and [BAD WORD] start another game. At the end of the day you're still gonna rank up.

There is no such thing as a "Locker vacuum".
You just hit the wrong prompt.
If you want that fixed, you have to ask for a better object placement.
No lockers in a certain radius around windows.
But talking about a "locker vacuum" makes you look like a weirdo.

can everyone please get over the "pallet vacuum"-fix?
That crap was broken and way to long in the game.
Now every survivor tries to make up new "vacuums" that "also" need to get "fixed".

With the above suggestions done, the most annoying situations, where I really feel cheated by the game when playing Freddy, would be gone.

in Freddy Fixes Comment by Wolf74 November 23, 2018

My suggestion:

-The hatch should not open if ANY survivor already escaped.
No more greedy survivor wasting time searching the hatch, if others already escaped through the gate.
We don't need the excuse "but the killer was at the gate". Of course he is, but there are TWO gates and he can't be at both.
Also, no hatch for the last survivor if another survivor already escaped by using a key.

@Carpemortum said:

The noed safety net can be removed before useful. The hatch cannot.

The latter is technically untrue since the hatch can't spawn unless 2 gens are done so by not letting 2 gens be done you can remove the hatch before it's useful. You can also kill all 4 survivors before it spawns also removing it before it becomes useful. 😁

And again… comparing apples and oranges.

So if Noed goes of is in whos control? Survivor.
And if the hatch spawns is in whos control? Survivor.

I still wait for the game mechanic that prevents the 4th survivor from escaping.

Or at least that the hatch does not open if ANY survivor already escaped.

Technically speaking NOED was nerfed, not buffed. At tier 3 that is. It completely lost the reduced cooldown on attacks. Not that anyone took that perk because of that ability. But for those of us with max ranked perks it wasn't buffed. Also, as I'm sure has been repeated numerous times, if you don't want the killer to use NOED then either bring a map with the add on to track killer's belongings or use small game to track down all the totems. It is 100% counterable.

Totally agree.
Good that someone is mentioning all that, that is not a known "biased killer main" (like me^^).

@Wolf74 With all due respect mate, "sorry but no" and just stating your original point over and over ("the hatch is free and you're wrong") has nothing to do with facts or logic. We presented new points and new evidence to back up our arguments, while you simply restated your initial argument every time. But you're right in saying that there's not much point continuing with someone like that - we've all made our case and anyone who cares to can read the points discussed and draw their own conclusions.

Because you didn't bring up anything new.
But no worries, I already declared you the "winner". Enjoy.

Just search the old threads, this has all been debated a 100 times.
Both perks got their buffs(BBQ) and nerfs(WGLF) to BALANCE them.
And all the people are asking for is going back to the unbalanced state of the two.
