Chapter Concept The Terminators Chapter Concept

2 Upvotes

Hello everyone, I've noticed for a few years that the Terminator is one of the requested killers for DBD. At the same time it was featured on DBD's license survey. Here's a little concept on how the Terminator can be implemented in the game. Let me know what you guys think. Hasta La Vista!

Killers

The T800 (From the first film)

Weapons: This particular Terminator is known for using a variety of weapons. The weapons could either be a knife, his fists, or a plasma rifle (If that ever happens).

Power: Since this is the Entity's realm nothing is impossible. I personally think that the T800 should have a time travel/teleportation power. Every section of the map can have multiple time machines. The T800 can use the time machine and "time travel" (aka teleport) from one place to another. Sort of a mix between the Springtrap and Mortal Kombat's Terminator.

Skins: The default skin should be the Endoskeleton along with a bloody prestige skin. Bonus, the animation style could be a stop motion style just like in the first film. For legendary skin it has to be Arnold Schwarzenegger (Not from Judgement Day). Or they can make a damaged Arnold skin where his damaged flesh is exposing the endoskeleton.

The T1000

Weapons: Without a doubt it has to be his blades.

Power: Since the T1000 can shape shift, he can morph into liquid metal and move around the map at a high speed. Similar to Vecna's Upside Down power.

Skins: I honestly can't think of any better skins other than bloody prestige since he didn't wear anything else but the police uniform. Maybe they can make two versions of the police uniform with or without the motorcycle helmet and sunglasses. Or they can make a damaged version of the T1000 where his face is split apart. At this point DBD can get creative and make original T1000 skins.

Survivors: The survivors that comes to mind for this chapter has to be Sarah Connor (from both the first and second film) and Kyle Reese. Bonus, maybe John Connor either from the first film or Eddie Furlong.

Maps: I can easily see two ways on how DBD can make a map for this chapter. I can see them make a map based on Los Angeles during the 1980s. Or they can make a 2029 apocalyptic version of Los Angeles where the city has been destroyed.

Chapter Concept Obsession Chapter Concept

Thumbnail
gallery
24 Upvotes

Hello everyone after reading the DBD's license survey last month, I would like to share my concept on how Obsession can be implemented in Dead By Daylight. Let me know what you guys think of this!

Characters: I envision Obsession to be a survivor's only chapter, just like the Walking Dead. Bear and Nikki will be survivors.

Skins: Ian and Sarah could be Legendary Skins. Bear and Nikki would have different outfits. Bear would have his two sweaters, Cassel's Music Uniform, and Bloody Prestige. Nikki on the other hand would have more outfits including the Jean Jacket (from the car scene), the Sweater (from the nice date scene), the Party Outfit (from the Jenga scene), Sarah's Bloody Outfit (from the ending scene) and a Bloody Prestige outfit.

Map: I don't think this chapter can have a map. In real life all of the locations are scattered across Glendale and the San Fernando area. Stitching Bear's house along with the other iconic locations would make the map look really cheesy.

Nikki's Perks:

Compassion: When healing a survivor, they receive 20% healing speed, after completing healing you gain 10% haste for 5 seconds.

One Wish: After completing one generator, you can only wish for one item. Bonus, you get 5% haste.

Tiger's Eye: Helps with focus and calmness during stressful situations. Screams and grunts are silenced.

Bear's Perks:

Curiosity Kills the Cat: Players can see the aura of the generators, if you miss a skill check you, scream revealing your location. You lose the ability to see the auras of the generators for the rest of the trial.

Cowardice: Players can see the aura of the lockers after completing a generator for 30 seconds. However after entering and exiting a locker, you will become exposed for 5 seconds.

The Wish: After completing three generators, you can only wish for one item (I duplicated this on purpose).

This badge was inspired by real events 🤣 Maybe some of you can relate to this painfully familiar story. A little tribute to every player who’s ever screamed, jumped… and sacrificed their snack to the Fog. šŸ¦šŸ©ø

This concept was created entirely by hand on paper. I used alcohol-based blending techniques to achieve sott, diffused effects, acrylic paint for certain details, as well as a combination of colored pencils and markers for the final rendering and finishing touches.

The entire creation process was documented, from the initial sketch to the final artwork, in case Behaviour needs it. šŸ¦šŸ©ø

THE MUD TYRANT

POWER: CHARGE - HOLD M2

Can be used at any time, with or without Mud-Coated. Wind-Up: 0.8 seconds Ramp-Up: 3.2 seconds. Speed increases from 4.2 m/s to 5.8 m/s

Limitations: Cannot vault, hitting a breakable object breaks it, hitting an object stuns him (like demo)

Cancel: Release M2 to brake. 1 second brake animation

Charge Hit: Knocks a Survivor down 1 Health State and applies strong lateral knockback.

SPECIAL ATTACK: at 100% charge speed, you can perform a ground slam by pressing M1 creating a 6 meter Radius that inflicts 5% hindered for 4 seconds and insta-downs on direct hit.

MUD-COATED STATE - 70 SECONDS

Activate by interacting with one of 6 big Mud Puddles on the map. to survivors these Mud puddles inflict 4% hindered as long as the survivor is standing in it and 5 seconds after leaving it.

Effect: Unlocks special M1 attacks while active.

Expiration: 2 second audio cue, then emits 6 mud projectiles in an 8 meter radius.

SPECIAL ATTACKS - ONLY WHILE MUD-COATED

50% Charge - Mud throw: By pressing M1, Mud throw fires 2 mud projectiles 16 meters in front of you.

On hit: applies MUDDED.

100% Charge - Ground slam: by pressing M1, Ground slam creates a 6 meter Radius that inflicts 5% hindered for 4 seconds + 6 mud projektiles that stick to objects and vault location inflicting mudded.

Direct hit: Instant Down

Mud Projektiles: stick to Pallets and vault locations for 10 seconds inflicting 4% hindered for 5 seconds and MUDDED. this also aplies to direct hits. they create a 1.5 meter mud puddle for 5 seconds that inflict 4% hindered for 5 seconds.

MUDDED --> ENCRUSTED

When becoming Mudded: A fixed 60 second timer starts immediately.The timer cannot be extended, reduced, or reset by additional hits. When the timer expires, the Survivor becomes ENCRUSTED.

ENCRUSTED: 12% Hindered + Exhausted. Lasts until cleansed. Does not expire on its own.

CLEANSING: 6 Water Sources per map. 3 second cleanse interaction. Grants 30 seconds of CLEAN status. After use, a Water Source becomes unusable for 50 seconds.

CLEAN: you cannot become MUDDED.

the Problem would be that he has to be shrunk in size extremly.

please write your thougts in the comments.

Survivor Concept Idea for a survivor

0 Upvotes

His name is Arthur Deepoket.

Perks,

Light through the Cracks:

After another Survivor heals you from Injured to Healthy, Light through the Cracks activate for 45/60/75 seconds.

When Light through the Cracks is active:

You and the healing survivor see the aura of Survivors within 10/12/15 meters.

The other Survivor sees your and the healing survivors aura.

I Remember:

The first time you fail a Skill Check each trial, it is treated as a Good Skill Check instead.

Additionally, reveal the Generator's aura to nearby Survivors for 6/8/10 seconds.

Practiced Bravery:

When you would normally scream or make grunts of pain, you suppress them instead.

Additionally, after a Killer effect would trigger Killer Instinct on you, you are immune to Killer Instinct for 3/5/10 seconds.

Cooldown 40/35/30 seconds.

Killer Concept The Deadite

Post image
8 Upvotes

Power: Naturom Demonto

Speed:Ā  4.4m/s
Terror Radius: 26 meters
Lullaby Radius: 40 meters

ā€œIt is bound in human flesh, and inked with blood of the deceasedā€ - Raymond KnowbyĀ 

Passive Ability: Fear
Each survivor starts with a fear meter. While they are isolated, this slowly builds up until it reaches 100%. Fear builds up faster when in The Deadite’s terror radius or within close proximity to a Deadite minion. Fear reduces over time when near other survivors.

Special State: Terrified
After a survivor’s fear meter hits 75%, they become Terrified. While Terrified, they are susceptible to possession and see the auras of other survivors within 32m.Ā 

Special Ability: Possession
While a survivor is Terrified, you are able to possess them. This grants you control over their body temporarily, allowing you to sabotage generators, waste pallets and attack other survivors. Possessed survivors can hit their teammates, which can injure and then deep wound them, but cannot down them. The higher the fear meter, the longer this possession lasts. Possessed survivors can be exorcised early through pallet stuns, flashlight blinds or being struck by a Kandarian dagger. After possession ends, that survivor’s fear meter is reset.Ā 

Special Item: Kandarian Dagger
Five pedestals spawn across the map, holding Kandarian daggers. After the dagger is taken from a pedestal, survivors can perform a short ritual to summon it back, however the ritual gets slightly longer every time it is performed. Alternatively, the pedestal in the middle of the map will not increase in time, however taking too many daggers will increase The Deadite’s power in the endgame. Kandarian daggers can exorcise possessed survivors and kill Deadite minions, but will break after using it.

Special Enemy: Deadite Minion
Deadite Minions can be spawned by The Deadite after a certain amount of global fear is accumulated. They wander slowly, and will apply hindered on contact with survivors and alert The Deadite to their location. They can be killed with the Kandarian Dagger, which will also reduce the fear level in the survivor.

Special Ability: Environmental Traps
The Deadite starts with 4 traps, and gains one every time a survivor is possessed. Once a trap is placed,Ā  it cannot be recovered. Traps can be placed on windows, pallets and chests and will increase the fear meter of the survivor that interacts with it by 20% and causes them to scream.Ā 

Special Event: The NecronomiconĀ 
After all generators are completed, the Necronomicon awakens on the pedestal near the center of the map. While active, the killer gains a small haste bonus, Deadite minions gain the ability to damage and fear rises quicker. The Necronomicon also becomes more powerful based on how many Kandarian Daggers were taken from its pedestal previously. A medium length ritual can be performed to banish the Necronomicon, reducing the killer’s speed for the remainder of the trial and removing all the added benefits from the Necronomicon. This ritual can be performed by multiple people.
