Licensed Killer Ideas

[Mac Tonight]

So how many licensed killers are released each year? 2? If so, what killer would fit later on? Jason Voorhees being my most favorite horror movie slasher, I hope he gets added in the future. My second option is if it's possible to add a Xenomorph into this game... that is if Alien is considered a Slasher film. List your killer ideas, no matter what horror movie they're from.

BUMP: New licenced character idea, my bloody valentine, trapper has the skin that looked like a miner almost but imagine the killer from my bloody valentine chasing you in a mine around a loop with his pickaxe, special idea came to mind of how he could work 1 way is he can instant kill in a locker with a perk that if you find someone in a locker instead of grabbing them, kill them on the spot, only activatable once (countered by lockerstun even if it needs buffing etc)

Anyways, can a Xenomorph work in this game?

No,Devs said that all killers are human.And xeno is xeno so it wont work.

My idea is listed here..
https://forum.deadbydaylight.com/en/discussion/28338/ideas-about-current-cosmetics-and-future-ones-as-well-as-a-bunch-of-other-stuff#latest
"The Deceiver.
Power "Mimic"
Allows you to disguise yourself as one of the survivors.
Your movement speed is slowed to match that survivor and you can pretend to work on gens, heal,ect. ( The progress does not go up though, as you are just pretending. Though it could be set that you do give progress. If this happens I think skillchecks should be for blowing up the gen with a bigger loss of progress than normal. if you do not hit the skillcheck then it acts like a great success. )
The switch to killer mode is quick. ( Needs to be almost instant ) As the killer is all about confusing survivors and attacking them the very moment they can. Perhaps even make it where the killer can attack while looking like a survivor but the disguise is of course taken off once they do, and the movement speed,ect will return to normal for the killer.

Alternative version of the power..
Sort of functions like Myer's ability. The Deceiver studies its prey, learning how to mimic them. At tier 1 there is no disguise. At tier 2 you can look like any survivor you have studied. Attacking them will take you out of your disguise. Tier 3 the survivors will not know the other survivor is harmed and you will still look like a survivor to all but the one who was wounded. ( This will prob need heavy adjustments and might even have some things become addons instead of part of the normal ability. )

This makes this killer extremely stealthy at Tier 3 and heavy in mind games. The killer will move at the same speed as survivors when disguised except when in tier 3, that is when it should be the crouch button or what ever alternative button to make the killer the same speed, otherwise the killer is the normal killer speed. ( It also has the same sort of trickery as noted in the other version of the power. )

The killers perks
"Friend or foe?"
Other survivors share the terror radius of the killer!
Rank 1 - Two random survivor has a Terror radius like the killers.
Rank 2 - Three random survivors has a Terror radius like the killers.
Rank 3 - All four survivors have a Terror radius like the killers and they also have the red stain. ( survivors can not see their own red stain. ) Might have to make this a hex perk

"Tricks of the Mind"
Skillchecks pop up randomly, even when not interacting with things. Skillchecks failed causes a sound like the static/electricity sound of a normal skill check on a gen with ruin on it.
Rank 1 - Does not pop up when working on anything. Low chance of occuring. Skill checks made that are from Tricks of the Mind do nothing.
Rank 2 - Pops up when interacting with everything but generators and healing. Medium chance of happening.
Rank 3 - Can happen at all times. High chance of happening unless the survivor is working on a gen or healing, then its a medium chance. ( Change percentage depends on testing I guess. )

"Friend of the Beast"
One random survivor will look like a killer. This survivor can not spawn near other survivors. This effect trumps offerings. The survivor sees themselves as normal.
Rank 1 - The survivor looks like a random killer.
Rank 2 - The survivor looks like a random killer with a higher chance of it being the actual killer in the game.
Rankk 3 - The survivor looks like the same killer that is in the game.
( I half thought about giving terror radius and red stain to this as well but figured that would be stepping on the first perk's area. ) TINY EDIT Forgot to mention that this survivor can not be seen by other survivor's aura perks. They can still be seen though when downed or hooked. ( They also look normal when downed/on hook/being carried )"

I never went back to thinking of a backstory or stuff for the survivor. I ended up forgetting about it since I hardly ever go to that site but this thread reminded me of it lol.. What do you guys think?

sounds like what legion should've been, concept wise atleast

Jason Voorhees won't be implemented into the game as the license has already been bought by the game Friday The 13th. Unless Friday The 13th will fail miserably, which is already happening, you won't see Jason in the game.

this didnt age too well

Although, I'm not a huge fan of liscensed killers I would really like to see Pyramid Head. Silent Hill is one of my all time favorite horror films, and I think everything about the aesthetic of Silent Hill fits perfectly within the Dead by Daylight universe from the fog to the gore.

I've seen some people make little theories on what his ablities or perks would be in the past, and I just think he'd be horrifying yet amazing to see in game however I feel like it'd be another Pig situation where Jigsaw isn't the main killer.

Heather Mason could be the survivor and I think it'd make for a pretty great DLC.

I never played Silent Hill, but I think it's a lost cause to try to get Pyramid Head in this game. Have you seen what Konami has become? If this game was made in 2008 or whatnot, I'm sure they'd allow them to use Pyramid Head.

Well don't you feel silly now?

Nice necro, +1

Hey, I'm like a fortune teller or something.
(as well as the hundreds of others who have begged for Pyramid Head since release.)

I think BHVR might owe me, haha. <3

Jason vorhees prob won't happen soon;
If you look closely you'll see that Trapper is a Jason Vorhees rip off: Big dude with a mask and a machete.

That goes for a lot of the early killers. Hillbilly was based off Leatherface, Nurse was based off the nurse enemies from Silent Hill, and Wraith's ability bears a resemblance to Predator. BHVR based a lot of their original killers off pre-existing horror staples because they didn't think their game would be large enough to attract multiple licenses. Yet, here we are, with a second chainsaw killer and what I'm sure will soon be another large man with a machete and a mask. Once the lawsuit ends, you can bet BHVR is going to jump on adding Jason to DbD.

Imagine what the look on the art and modelling team's faces was when they got the leatherface licensing and then, seeing how they have billy already, having pictures and descriptions of the character and planning to make it. especially seeing as BHVR isn't a USA based company are they? some of their devs might not know what Texas Chainsaw Massacre is.
