Michael Myers ABILITY!

[EpSyPeePsY]

Any idea what his ability going to be ? Like no hearbeat ? Sneak up to enemy and then when survivor hear beep beep it's already too late ? :) I mean this game would be much more scarrier and funny and bring back to life if they reduce this hearbeat...Especially to Michael Myers. He sneaks up and boom :)

Maybe one of his perks will allow him to Memento Mori a survivor that he has been stalking long enough(or power)


If i remember correctly, I haven't watched the movies with him in it but I believe one of his signature killing sequences was where he had a giant knife and just repeatedly stabbed someone while they were standing upward while that creepy jumpscare theme plays.


Not sure if that's his signature kill that made him famous or whatever, but I imagine if they want to bring that to the table here he will have a unique way of insta-killing a survivor when his power is at its peak even when they're not downed.

My thought was perhaps he might be similar to wraith, just fully visible and completely silent. No heartbeat, just walks up and stares at the survivors from a distance while building up his power. And when that power is decided to be "cashed in" on, he swaps into "murder your face mode" where he is able to attack and is powered up, but the heartbeat now plays.

Should be interesting. I've often wondered if you can spy on the survivors from the catwalk windows of the Ironworks of Misery with him. I'm looking forward to trying it.

im wondering how the new survivor is going to fit in as well

OMG that would be awesome. No music no heartbeat, just staying behind you and when you turn around...you die. Hope this is how he will be, it will be the first really scary killer.

Well considering his terrible FOV it's probably something lock-on related. Thought auto-aim was bad before?

Not quite. I said like Wraith - that means there should be a few seconds warning before Michael goes into "kill your face" mode.

So when the person turns to see you and your silent, they know you aren't in kill mode - but will you flip that switch? Should they keep working that generator? How long have you been there?

My guess is unpowered, Michael may be considerably slower than the survivors. May even have a weaker attack. But fully powered, you may be looking at somebody who has their own built-in NOED.

Maybe, he`s got somekind of ability, the longer you are watching/ observing a certain Survivor, the stronger and faster Mike gets (as we have seen in the trailer, there`s probably no heart beat at all, when he`s close)!
I guess there could be somekind of timer/ progress bar and when it`s full, you can one-shot this Survivor, you were stalking all the time ->I think a mori-ability would be too op...
The devs could`ve added a restricted vision, to compensate for his "op" ability!
This way, Survivors would´ve a fair chance to escape from him easier, than from the other killers, when they spot him.
Since Mike doesn`t run in the movies, he`s probably slow first, but gets faster when he`s stalking, I guess.
Anyways, can`t wait to play him!

There has been quite a bit of speculation. The only things the devs have said for sure besides that his power builds the longer he stalks/watches, is that the gameplay is going to be changed, we won't be able to play as we have been (as survivors and killer) in order to win with this new killer.

My guess for what the Obsession power will Watching a survivor builds the obsession level in you, that obsessions power would allow you to teleport to that survivor, of course you would have to watch for a little while in order to teleport all the way to them , prior to that you would only be able to teleport a certain distance towards them.

My reasoning is because this is what usually happens in the Halloween movies. the survivor runs runs runs away from Michael only to turn a corner and there he is. But who knows, just a guess.

Looking forward to it for sure

Devs said that he will be a mix of wraith and trapper. I unterstand the wraith part but I have no Idea what ability he could share with the trapper...

Indeed, very long to wait.

I was also thinking since it was a licensing deal they had to make, I am sure there are stipulations regarding what Michael Myers can and cannot do in the game. In order to keep with the iconic figure we all know.

[Torec]

Will he need to watch while all 5 gens pop? haha

It would be great if, instead of the heartbeats, it used a loop of the John Carpenter music instead :)

I´m 90% sure that since he is a hybrid of wraith and trapper, he´ll be able to lay down a totem and then be able to teleport straight back to it

The music is part of the licensing they acquired.
