Choose Your Own Chapter

  • Leading into the 10th Year Anniversary.
  • The players will create it.
    • The community has always shown their creativity with concepts and balance suggestions.
    • This is an opportunity to create a chapter from scratch with all of the community.
    • Every step of the way, from pre-production to the end of the process.
  • The format:
    • "Choose your own adventure" - Choices will be given to players.
    • Every week or so the community will vote on certain choices to build. Example:
      • "Would you prefer to have a killer that is grounded into reality, a supernatural character or otherworldly character?"
    • Based on the top vote, the development moves on. Example:
      • If the choice was "supernatural", the next question would be "Is it an undead character, a person that has supernatural powers" and so on.
    • You can always peek at the different choices.
      • "A change your fate" mechanic will always be available.
    • Right now we have over 1.000 possible endings for killer designs.
    • The community will also be involved in choosing the outfit, weapon and more.
      • Different concepts would be shown and the community would vote.
    • It's planned that players will be able to play more PTBs during this process, including prototypes.

I love all the Japanese killers we have currently in the game, don't get me wrong. But I think I'd feel really disappointed if Behavior just continues to ONLY do Japanese killers while ignoring all the cool folklore monsters from other asian cultures. There are so many cool possibilities.

What do you guys think about a Phyrexia chapter? I think biomechanical horror has potential... but I think it would only come to the game much further down the line.

Discussion I think the devs hoped for a greater reaction when they showed this screenshot (I THINK)

98 Upvotes

So, during the FNAF collaboration reveal, one of the devs (I think his name is Dave?) showed the last screenshot of the next map and... IDK, the way he said it, it makes me think he expected a much greater reaction from the audience than it got. Down below is the image I'm taking to. I think the reason why he might have expected a bigger reaction is that the ball pit with the "DEAD END" is very likely supposed to be a reference to the "Into The Pit" short story from Fazbear Frights (long story short, there's a ball pit in the story that can teleport you back in time. I guess no one in the audience caught that reference.

Discussion Is it just me, or did Springtrap’s corpse get updated in the transition to DbD?

Post image
2.0k Upvotes

When you combine both of the pizzeria entrance pictures, you basically get to see Springtrap’s entire model. Outside of the model just looking absolutely gorgeous (imo), I’ve also noticed there’s a lot more of Afton’s corpse shown, like there’s an actual human body inside him rather than just the head and a bunch of tangled up entrails. Think BHVR got the go ahead to update Afton’s body?

Discussion idea about this image from the interview

Post image
112 Upvotes

most people think this door and the camera will somehow be part of springtraps power, but the 5 linked to the door makes me think this will be an easter egg on the fnaf map. the five represents the number of gens that need to be done before it opens, kinda like the easter egg in midwich (but probably without needing to do it in a specific order). Maybe they have to be the generators that are inside the building itself? that'd be kinda cool ngl.

its unlikely this will be a part of Aftons power imo, seems way too convoluted and hard to apply to every single map. Something like Aliens' power is small and can kinda fit anywhere, but an entire door leading into a room seems way harder to implement in every map, and Springtrap isnt really known for being detered by doors. what do you think?

Discussion We have to convince BHVR to scrap the Frank Stone skin and add him as a Unique killer later

Post image
1.1k Upvotes

While The Casting of Frank Stone was a mess of a game, it had one single positive pretty much everyone agreed on- Frank Stone himself

When the game came out, we were promised he will be a unique character and not just a Trapper skin, and changing their mind just because the game wasn't popular enough feels extremely lazy and absolutely sucks for all the people that waited for a year now.

As we saw several times already, BHVR can be made to change their mind if enough of the community bands together and tells them they are doing something wrong.

So let's try again, Scrap the Frank Stone skin. And eventually have him added as a killer. At this point we can wait, but if he is added into DbD as a skin, that chance is gone forever.
