Freddy krueger is ♥♥♥♥ing stupid to play against

[Ajax]

The worst most unfun to play as and play against. Its so annoying when you hear his dumbass humming all over the map and he is completely invisible. And the dream state? Impossible to escape once you are in transition. He is just the most unfun killer to play against

Edit: Ya'll are idiots. I still play on PS4. I bought this game just so it said I owned it on Steam. Looks like I need to boost my PC hours to earn some more credibility. Have it run in the background while I play on ps4

[ActivelyVacant]

Of course you would say that, Jason.

[Kamil]

I agree but its not changing. Call me what you want but I just run to the nearest hook and point. Just get me into a new game please.

I know running premonition or spinechill is a tough thing to do, but maybe you should consider it, if you’re going to make a rage post complaining that the agreed WORST killer is too hard to play against, or in your words “unfun” although it mostly just seems like a rage post from dying.

while he is unfun and annoying because freddy is the ultimate tunneler he is also the weakest killer in the game while i hate his mechanics cause stealth is almost non-existent vs him thus forcing you to loop him he is the weakest killer in the game so while i do hate games vs him game vs are very easy and your pretty much guaranteed to escape https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LEYkf8S1Leg

More like the 6 days after then he was nerfed to the floor.

Even before the Nerf he was worse than Wraith.

ITT: A lot of people confusing the OP saying they are unfun to play as and against with them being a killer who is too powerful.

I disagree with some of his assertations that he is impossible to escape, but I agree with the overall idea that I doubt *anyone* is really happy with Freddy as he is. He needed a complete rework to make his power more dynamic and skill based for both sides, rather than being dumpstered.

His power and drawback basically affect raw mechanical advantage in hunting and chases, positively affecting hunting and negatively affecting chases. The issue is unless his hunt power is so good that it basically makes chases never end, which is borring and ♥♥♥♥♥♥, the fact he is so disadvantaged in closing out chases and winning too hard.

Doc, I think, is about as powerful a pure detection character should be in the realm of detection, and even HE has a minor chase power. Amping up detection and hunting at the cost of chase even more makes Freddy 'Lopsided' which compromises the experience.

Imagine a character in a shooter who had 1 HP but could instantly kill anyone as well in a game where movement is clunky so dodging isn't realistic: The fundemental concept is too out there and there is no balance point where such a character is useful while also being fun to play against.

Freddy is in a similar spot. I think anyone with a brain agrees he needs a power INCREASE, but his core concept of his power being "You can run but you can't hide" is kinda garbage, where as Doc's "You can hide but you better do it damn well or else you don't get to hide ever again" is really neat.

A killer can be underpowered and still a crutch/ annoying killer to play as, people say Freddy and the doctor are the "worst killers in the game" (they say hag is really bad too but a good hag can still do well, image that - skill affects performance) but they're the 2 biggest crutch killers in the game, right behind an insidious basement-camping cannibal

Naw these people know what they're doing, shame a player to try and invalidate thier point, so they can keep thier ez BP farm killers

What type of “crutch” does Freddy provide? It’s not a surprise attack, it’s not finding people.

Myers and Wraith do his job better.

Doctor? What about him? typically survivors spawn TOGETHER. And when you hear 2-3-4 screams together you can only chase one. He finds people one time unless they are dumb and can’t manage madness.

As for a crutch? crutches reward failure, DS rewards getting caught. BT I used as a extra hit in most cases, but it’s not ALWAYS a crutch, it can still be used for its intended purpose stopping camping.

As for a Insidious LeatherFace? If we want to get down to it, it’s not a crutch because you have to find AND catch someone the HOPE survivors are dumb, you didn’t fail in killing unless you never caught someone to begin with.

You don’t automatically fail in finding someone if you use Freddy or Doctor. It’s a side-affect of playing them, kinda like B&C with points.

I dunno if I’m making any sense, I’m really tired and kinda just spewing nonsense really.
