Emotes/Gestures

[dooteranopia TTV]

I think it's time for some new emotes/gestures.

Survivors

I would love to see a wave gesture. This would not only be fun to use with other survivors, but I can't be the only person standing on top of coal tower or the saloon balcony and see the killer coming and want to wave to them.

Killers

Yes, I think killers need emotes! Survivors have so much expression, while killers are limited to shaking or nodding their head, and hitting things.

Give killers a point, a "this way" gesture (think like a host/hostess directing you to a table or a butler gesturing you into a house), and maybe a silent laugh emote.

I think that this will both allow for some fun when you end up taming the killer (e.g. they can point to a gen or a totem), some disappointment (e.g. when you corner yourself, they could do the this way gesture to let you try again), and the silent laugh would certainly be a better option than the gross humping thing that people are doing, and I think that it makes sense for killers to have a way to give it back to survivors who click or teabag in a bantery way.

I agree and would love both!
The only way I can communicate as killer is swiping at the air or smacking on an object, which can be hard to understand.

Would definitely love for survivors to have more options. I think a basic enough option would be tapping the gesture buttons and holding the gesture buttons. Hold to do what they do now, and tap to do a more panicked version.
Theres so many times im trying to point to warn a teammate the killer is THAT WAY, but instead they take it as a sign to go over THAT WAY. A panicking survivor frantically pointing could be used to show "Hey the killers THERE!" While the calm point we have now can be used for directions and nose boops still.

I love the idea of the panicked point! Great suggestion!

Survivors definitely need a NO gesture or something like that. Sometimes you have a syringe and people try to heal you, sometimes you see a teammate doing a gen that'll end up 3 gening you... you can try shaking your head but that's not very effective.
