@@mr_cyberbob I would assume you mean if the survivor diong the healing is awake and the one hurt is going night night?. Even more so to wake that survivor up.
removing the ability to cancel TP is a bit of a shame as one of the 3 freddy mains. nothing captured that dream demon feeling more than making a survivor think you're about to appear next to them, and when they run away you're already there waiting for them. i'm gonna miss that ability, but to be honest i was expecting freddy's current kit to be fully wiped, so seeing that he's keeping BUFFED versions of 90% of his kit is actually awesome news! i might have to hop on again once this releases.
@@Kamina.D.Fierce You can still do that. Just don't let them see you porting. During a loop , when they cant see you, port to a location they are running towards and surprise.
i have a feeling they did this because of how teleporting to healing survivors must work, which would probably be a different system internally, since they aren’t simple fixed teleport locations like generators. the radius language actually reminds me a lot of how pinhead’s box teleport works, and i’d bet you that they essentially ported that exact same system, with the killer instinct and everything. that’s not cancellable either, so they probably just added that and unified how it works with generators for consistency. i hope they can bring it back for generators at least, but something tells me this is more motivated by development compromises due to resource/time constraints than balance. the argument would probably be that having the teleport mechanics work differently would be unintuitive or something
This rework seems crazy, especially the exploding pallets that can injure. Let's hope they know what they're doing and won't have to revert it back like they did with Twins lol
The amount of coordination needed, to wake up, group up and heal, while everyone is awake, is something soloQ players will struggle with, to reset you have to make sure you’re awake, anti healing builds will be good on him.
If you reset with another teammate to get an unhook vs. a proxycamping Freddy and force the teleport, the 3rd survivor can just swoop in for the safe instead...thats whats gonna happen in every soloQ game...surely :^)
FREDDY'S BAAAAAAAAACK. on serious note, having the biggest horror franchise as a joke for all these years, its time to be the real face of horror in dbd
@@RosePosiepuddingpie it's actually an inside joke within the community. Its uses are extremely niche (very specific self-pickup builds), and ever since its release it has been laughed at by the wider community for being a very detrimental perk.
@@RosePosiepuddingpie I think it can be made passable if you build into it. Invocation: Weaving Spiders has no downside with No Mither, and if you bring Resilience, you're actually putting a lot of progress into gens. Plus it's less wasteful to be sitting in the basement doing an Invocation when you're the weakest link in chase, being down a health state. Instead, you're safely putting progress on gens. The only wild card is the chase itself, so my last slot is usually Sprint Burst.
I still want them to bring back the ability to pull the survivors into the dream world, I always thought that was such a cool concept and just needed some way to make it viable
Well, I am bummed about them not making freddy "invisible and having his old m2 pull in dream mechanic alongside these changes" but I do think they made him more interesting, cant wait to try him out :) But I can hear the survivors crying about this already, he seems wayyyyyyyyyyyyyy stronger already and we havent even tested :D
@@yourablizardlarryyes5148 and any survivor that makes killers have to actually play instead of being cheap makes killers cry. Your point? God, I play both and killers are the most whiny, obnoxious of the two. Y'all can't discuss anything without turning it into something stupid like this.
It'd be hilarious if next to the clocks you can find the sleeping survivor and once you interact with them they do a little animation of waking up, as if they were always there. (but they just materialize when your survivor falls asleep.)
I'm loving this direction bhvr is taking by reworking horror icons, Myers and now Freddy. I really hope they keep the trend going with Bubba and Sadako. Sadako should be such an ominous and relentless dread... I get that she is hard to balance for a game considering she can't just walk in and instantly kill everyone with just a stare (yes, she is that powerful canonically) but she should still like she has you trapped into her relentless game of cat and mouse... Forget her mori completely if you want, but if she could get more options and more abilities the more condemn stacks she gets across all survivors, a bit how myers has tier 1, then 2, then 3, she could really feel like the menacing onryo who slowly eats at her preys and that would feel a lot closer to the movies than just getting 7 stacks and then getting a mori. Survivors could still drop tapes to remove their stacks, but she would be rewarded for keeping condemn pressure on all survivors. Heck, the mori could be only accessible after 21 stacks if you want or on the last hook stage of each survivor to save a few extra seconds, I really don't care about it, but she feels nothing like an almighty onryo as of now.
Tbh this seems like an amazing rework, especially due to the fact that they didn’t completely change his kit but rather they buffed it in interesting ways, this gives me a lot of hope for merchants rework
As a freddy main since he released on console, I like the changes they made, except for the part where you can no longer cancel his teleport. It not only added more skill to him, but more deception, which is what bhvr were going for right now, making it a counter intuitive change.
I thought that was really weird too. "We want him to seem like he can be everywhere at once. But he can't fake teleports anymore to appear as if he's somewhere he's not."
I wish instead of getting rid of the tele cancel they just put in an add-on to have the option to tele to survivors while healing. Canceling Tele with dead man's was really fun
Yeah, but now his power is more interesting. You’re talking about the one (only) cool thing (just the one) he used to do. He can teleport to completed gens now. He’s no longer a joke! I think trading a lack luster mind game for a more consistent and skillful power is nothing but good news.
@@JollyCandy-ki3er BHVR sets up a false ultimatum. There's no reason Freddy’s power gets dumbed down because of his new-fangled switching traps and teleport freedom. The singularity is semi-complex but fun because you get to control the game whether your opponent knows how to counterplay or not because Singularity can mindgame and if Freddy gets more freedom in his kit then all the more power to him but there's no justifiable reason to get rid of an engaging survivor killer interaction because of it.
Freddy main here. Most of the changes look good, except for not being able to cancel teleport. Not only was it such a good mind game and a great way to scare survivors off a gen at the last second, but it was nice be able to cancel it if a survivor popped up right in front of you, keeping the game active and fun. Keeping survivors guessing was part of the fun! I hope if they rethink anything, it is this. I also wish they’d made a way to pull survivors into the dream world at will. That was such a fun mechanic and fit Freddy so well!
The pallet explosion and dream snares is the more interactive way of getting survivors to sleep. You can still teleport to a gen and trigger dead man’s switch, it’s just now you get to chase the survivor as well. Instead of leaving them at a blocked gen for a while. I think removing that will be more fun for the survivors so I’m not opposed to it. It’s like arguing the new clocks will slow his ability to get into chases because survivors no longer have to run across the map to where a clock is possibly exposing themselves to the killer. IMO it’s a quality of life change for the survivors.
Instead of teleporting to survivors healing in the dream world he should instead teleport to survivors trying to escape the dreamworld via clock or another survivor. It makes more sense thematically and gameplay wise.
Firstly let me preface this as I am a killer main most of my time is on killer and ngl this looks like a solid rework he actually looks like he’ll fit the role of a dream demon and really is taking what they already have and improving upon it and I can’t wait to see how he plays my only concern is if he’ll be a solo queue and new player demon since it seems like you will need some co ordination to counter but overall looks like a solid rework
I recently bought him before the Christmas discounts were off and yeah... I didnt belive people when they said he was super boring to play AND THE WERENT WRONG. Anyway I hope this makes him feel better to play as.
The new paint brush and freddy being able to teleport to survivore while in dream world will be strong af. They will have to go to the clocks constantly to stay awake. The slowdown will be nuts. 😂 Ok they can go to any clock. So the slowdown wont be as bad as i thought
Once a clock is used it is put on a cooldown and wont be available for a while so yes its still somewhat a slowdown since a different survivor will be forced to either wait the timer out to use the same clock or run to a different clock
@@martezblade Unless I missed it, if they didn't remove the Wake Up interaction between survivors alarm clock slowdowns won't be too great. I get the Wake Up interaction gets longer the more its used but it can be used anywhere, anytime.
Overall, seems like a good start for his rework, but I guess we'll have to see on the PTB. But this will definitely make the Dreamworld a very significant danger to survivors, which was always a weak point of his power, thematically. This should be interesting.
Damn, he didnt get a bunch more swappable illusions but maybe Freddy will finally feel like the little prick whos around every corner he is, throwing projectiles and teleporting to everywhere
I highly doubt dream pallets will be able to down survivors since it specifically says "injure" and not remove a health state. Most likely it will just put them in injured state and deep wound if already injured. I'm gonna be honest though. . . This Freddy rework sounds bound to get gutted and forgotten about not long after release. Obviously we'll have to wait for release to see for sure, but it sounds like they made the issue they wanted to fix worse. Yes he's going to be a better killer with a better kit, but decent survivors still shouldn't have that big an issue meanwhile he's going to be even bigger of a noob stomper. Remember when skull merchant got reworked to no longer being that bad and noob/trash players refused to learn counterplay so they whined till they gutted her into oblivion? Can't wait for freddy to get the same treatment after becoming a better noob stomper.
Would make sense with the new mending system but I think it is a power that could down, as long as it’s telegraphed and Freddy is slowed down or needs to commit to it in some way.
@@JollyCandy-ki3er if it's telegraphed enough then i would also be fine if they let it down a survivor. I'm just worried that if it becomes too telegraphed it will be useless because then you can get slowed down and a survivor can just go "oh, while ur slow I'll ignore the obvious trap and run to a safe pallet" Overall that new part of his power feels like it's gonna be a pain to properly adjust so it actually does something against decent survivors without being a complete noob stomper ability
@Khaledzilla4 Does the HUD tell you which pallets have beeen dropped? Where the killer is and where they are headed? Where all traps are set and pointing at? Oh mb, I just gotta git gud
@@Khaledzilla4 Except mechanics that are completely reliant on communication...? Dream pallets with coms will literally do nothing. Dream pallets against solo quers who have zero idea will have to guess an give free injury. Obviously coms make EVERYTHING in dbd easier but powers like this that rely on survivors not knowing are just far too volatile and make solo que absolutely miserable. Even the best solo que survivors in the world will be forced to guess and lose health states. Tell me how that's a skill issue.
My issue with freddy wasnt that he's weak (in my skill range hes not bad) but moreso he was suuuper boring. Ive had games where i rolled freddy and 4k'd as freddy and the only "dream demon" part of him was that i was half asleep
@@thatbloodyspy Yeah this doesn't do a lot to change the boring level unless of course you don't place the snares any more and it truly does work like punishment of the damned
Free character trials are cool but i worry if thatll make killer ques take longer during events because of the amount of people wanting to try killers they don't have
I never knew there was a map prevention system, because a lot of the maps just feel the same with slightly different loadouts. But having a REALM prevention system? Oh buddy oh man I can't wait to not go to the God awful corn realm 4 times in a row where I can't see anything from color blindness. Also, they don't want skull merchant "setting and forgetting" at loops but they will give Freddy infinite 3 meter wide pallet bombs.
Freddy has been out for much longer tho, and his last rework was a massive blunder, same as twins actually. they don’t really seem to care about twins tho considering their pick rate is in rock bottom
I wish they had left teleport fake in, and maybe slightly nerf his antihealing teleport, like put a 40m range limit on it. Being able to tp to any gen is already powerful enough of a change, plus antihealing builds on him are going to make him basically like Legion or Plague where ur an m1 killer where everyone is always injured....except Freddy actually has a chase power so he'll be slightly better than both those two. Which i dont mind but it just seems weird. Like, i feel like he could use a nerf in some form to his visibility part of his power. With everything else being way stronger, I dont think its necessary for him to be as confusing for newer players to be aware of his location. They reallllyyy need to either make a dedicated tutorial in game for each killer (as/against whether you own them or not), or actually design stuff to be new player accessible. *This is the reason Skull Merchant got nerfed, because there was no in-game way to actually know how her power worked without buying her(also even the loading screen tips dont fully explain the details of her power even if you do own her and play as her)* This is quite possibly the least new player accessible game Ive ever seen anyways. I have over 1k hours, dont play much anymore, but i cannot and would not ever introduce a friend to this game because it is genuinely unplayable as a new person, plus the MMR system making it so even if you carry their ass then you just get games where they objectively cannot contribute in a meaningful way because theyre new playing against high mmr killers.
With the free character trails can I use them characters to get adept achievements for the characters I don’t own or other achievements that belong to that killer or will they be locked?
So, i want to start out by just commending BHVR for even attempting to update Freddy. This is a great sign, right after the Myers update. That said, if i understand this correctly, there is a big problem with dream pallets. The activation time will encourage Freddy's to activate when a survivor enters a loop. Survivors will respond by learning to simply not approach pallets. Given that current Freddy's counterplay is already to not drop pallets if he has dream pallets, and survivors will only triple down on this with harsher punishments than a bit of wasted time dropping a fake pallet. This will lead to an interaction of survivors holding W until Freddy has fired a snare (which will be even more obvious, considering it is no longer a trap that only asleep survivors can see. I also think this will primarily discourage Freddy's from using them at all, which is still the current understanding, and the snare changes are incredible.
I don't care how well survivors out loop me I am 100% using Killer Queen pallets. Also its a 3m range, a lot of loops can keep a survivor near it. And depending on how it looks/sounds when he does it you can wait for them to round a corner and activate it, lining up attacks.
Good stuff, but I think new brush addon's downside is a bit too harsh - it's Freddy we are talking about, he is not The Nurse, aura 32 meters away will not make him a menace to society, especially since it would be clear it's in play at the start
The exploding pallets seem so useless, you already get the hit if they drop a dream pallet, and this is only 3 meters from DREAM pallets only and also only injures if in dream.

Obviously we'll have to wait for release to see for sure, but it sounds like they made the issue they wanted to fix worse. Yes he's going to be a better killer with a better kit, but decent survivors still shouldn't have that big an issue meanwhile he's going to be even bigger of a noob stomper.
Remember when skull merchant got reworked to no longer being that bad and noob/trash players refused to learn counterplay so they whined till they gutted her into oblivion? Can't wait for freddy to get the same treatment after becoming a better noob stomper.
freddy the first killer to be nerfed into oblivion 3 different times
Would make sense with the new mending system but I think it is a power that could down, as long as it’s telegraphed and Freddy is slowed down or needs to commit to it in some way.
@@JollyCandy-ki3er if it's telegraphed enough then i would also be fine if they let it down a survivor. I'm just worried that if it becomes too telegraphed it will be useless because then you can get slowed down and a survivor can just go "oh, while ur slow I'll ignore the obvious trap and run to a safe pallet"
Overall that new part of his power feels like it's gonna be a pain to properly adjust so it actually does something against decent survivors without being a complete noob stomper ability
I wouldn't call it a "new system" for deep wound when the only thing that change is the position of the bar...@@JollyCandy-ki3er
@@JollyCandy-ki3er There's no new mending system. It is just a visual change to better indicate you're dying.
Man love the fast coverage!! 🎉🎉
built in healing nurse perk is crazy
Im not even two minutes in and theres two changes that make freddy buff survivers by giving more time to the sleep timer
That means he's speeding up them falling asleep, not waking them up
@NinjaBananaChannel '_' me rn
The Pallet damaging thing sounds crazy to me, wont that be another SoloQ destroyer?
All killers are solo q destroyers. Also the Hud tells you everything, solo q isn't an excuse anymore just get gud
@Khaledzilla4 Does the HUD tell you which pallets have beeen dropped? Where the killer is and where they are headed? Where all traps are set and pointing at? Oh mb, I just gotta git gud
@@Khaledzilla4 Except mechanics that are completely reliant on communication...? Dream pallets with coms will literally do nothing. Dream pallets against solo quers who have zero idea will have to guess an give free injury. Obviously coms make EVERYTHING in dbd easier but powers like this that rely on survivors not knowing are just far too volatile and make solo que absolutely miserable. Even the best solo que survivors in the world will be forced to guess and lose health states. Tell me how that's a skill issue.
@@doug2555 Damn, didn't know pallet freddy was this op 😂😂. Low mmr convos are crazy
Freddy is already BHBR confirmed solo q destroyer. 2nd biggest killer in the game after Wesker. They posted this a year ago. Crazy but true.
My issue with freddy wasnt that he's weak (in my skill range hes not bad) but moreso he was suuuper boring. Ive had games where i rolled freddy and 4k'd as freddy and the only "dream demon" part of him was that i was half asleep
@@thatbloodyspy Yeah this doesn't do a lot to change the boring level unless of course you don't place the snares any more and it truly does work like punishment of the damned
what an absolutely fantastic Dev Update, nothing but huge W's
Free character trials are cool but i worry if thatll make killer ques take longer during events because of the amount of people wanting to try killers they don't have
being able to teleport to people healing at all times seems absolutely stupid
1, 2, Freddie's coming for you 😨
Can’t believe the good ol fredwardo we always laughed about is gonna be meta
Bro please let’s this actually be good. He sounds good and Ik he for sure will be better. This would be crazy if this made him high A tier.
this seems like a buff that would put him in low b high c but I would love to be wrong
They need freddy to get a voice
"macabre" is related to death. Given the devs are from Montréal, French words also existing in English comes more easily to them.
I never knew there was a map prevention system, because a lot of the maps just feel the same with slightly different loadouts. But having a REALM prevention system? Oh buddy oh man I can't wait to not go to the God awful corn realm 4 times in a row where I can't see anything from color blindness.
Also, they don't want skull merchant "setting and forgetting" at loops but they will give Freddy infinite 3 meter wide pallet bombs.
i have no faith in behavior that this won’t be buggy as hell
Freddy has gotten 3 reworks since he was launched. The Twins has gotten one that was immediately removed. I want everyone to let that sink in
The door is open, come on in sink! It's freezing outside
Freddy has been out for much longer tho, and his last rework was a massive blunder, same as twins actually. they don’t really seem to care about twins tho considering their pick rate is in rock bottom
I wish they had left teleport fake in, and maybe slightly nerf his antihealing teleport, like put a 40m range limit on it. Being able to tp to any gen is already powerful enough of a change, plus antihealing builds on him are going to make him basically like Legion or Plague where ur an m1 killer where everyone is always injured....except Freddy actually has a chase power so he'll be slightly better than both those two. Which i dont mind but it just seems weird.
Like, i feel like he could use a nerf in some form to his visibility part of his power. With everything else being way stronger, I dont think its necessary for him to be as confusing for newer players to be aware of his location.
They reallllyyy need to either make a dedicated tutorial in game for each killer (as/against whether you own them or not), or actually design stuff to be new player accessible.
*This is the reason Skull Merchant got nerfed, because there was no in-game way to actually know how her power worked without buying her(also even the loading screen tips dont fully explain the details of her power even if you do own her and play as her)*
This is quite possibly the least new player accessible game Ive ever seen anyways. I have over 1k hours, dont play much anymore, but i cannot and would not ever introduce a friend to this game because it is genuinely unplayable as a new person, plus the MMR system making it so even if you carry their ass then you just get games where they objectively cannot contribute in a meaningful way because theyre new playing against high mmr killers.
I think they overdid it with the teleport to a healing surviver part.. but it will be nerfed in a month or 2 back to what it was.. :D
Definitely not that op. Shits like the box for pinhead. A good survivor will actually WANT that to happen
I'm so glad I can be somewhat OG Freddy with benefits, though didn't mind running around and putting peeps asleep manually...
What is funny, it is his second rework in dead by daylight.
I know they can't exactly change the mori due to the licensing, but it would be super cool if they gave him a more personalized mori
With the free character trails can I use them characters to get adept achievements for the characters I don’t own or other achievements that belong to that killer or will they be locked?
Just pointing out, Hens was editing this while in the queues live on stream lmao... impressive stuff tbh
So, i want to start out by just commending BHVR for even attempting to update Freddy. This is a great sign, right after the Myers update.
That said, if i understand this correctly, there is a big problem with dream pallets. The activation time will encourage Freddy's to activate when a survivor enters a loop. Survivors will respond by learning to simply not approach pallets. Given that current Freddy's counterplay is already to not drop pallets if he has dream pallets, and survivors will only triple down on this with harsher punishments than a bit of wasted time dropping a fake pallet. This will lead to an interaction of survivors holding W until Freddy has fired a snare (which will be even more obvious, considering it is no longer a trap that only asleep survivors can see. I also think this will primarily discourage Freddy's from using them at all, which is still the current understanding, and the snare changes are incredible.
Ok but imagine u can activate them from anywhere, it means you would be able to snipe with dream pallets while seeing
I don't care how well survivors out loop me I am 100% using Killer Queen pallets.
Also its a 3m range, a lot of loops can keep a survivor near it. And depending on how it looks/sounds when he does it you can wait for them to round a corner and activate it, lining up attacks.
Only took 7 years!
This is going to be ao fun to play against. I cannot wait to learn how to play him as a killer and work around him as a survivor.
Leprose Lichen got nerfed so Red Paint Brush could run.
leprose lichen got nerfed because bhvr wanted to push their most recent dlc by any means necessary because it was underperforming. that’s it
I USED TO PRAY FOR TIMES LIKE THESE 🙏
If we get a new chase theme was would be sick
YEEESSSSS FUCKING FINALLY INSANE FREDDY BUFF
I'm not hopeful. Survivors will cry their eyes out and get him nerfed
Gay Seer of Blood is the new killer
Good stuff, but I think new brush addon's downside is a bit too harsh - it's Freddy we are talking about, he is not The Nurse, aura 32 meters away will not make him a menace to society, especially since it would be clear it's in play at the start
Rmbr he can explode pallets, so if there’s no limit on range, he can snipe them with exploding pallets while seeing their aura at all times
He is too iconic to be this weak amd shitty. So now i can play freddy with a chubby
could this make me come back
Hens your thumbnail says 2025
i wonder when will the sbmm update be. Probably never
what about perks from Freddys DLC?
I hope he gets a skin with his update
The exploding pallets seem so useless, you already get the hit if they drop a dream pallet, and this is only 3 meters from DREAM pallets only and also only injures if in dream.
Not useless, the pallet explodes. Then he instantly m1 hits you equals the survivor being downed
"Jerry 2025"
Does anyone know when it will be out???
When does the new PTB drop?
Confirmed for tomorrow
I'd say he went up the ranks in High B tier tbh , or if im generous the last member of A tier
Agreed, cant really say until we see gameplay tho
do you have to wake up after the unhook? did they change that you wake up after gettng hooked? or are you talking about the unhooker?
This feels like a dream
More like a nightmare . . . I'll see myself out.
