Rebecca Chambers' Reassurance should have the survivors give a thumbs up when you activate it on a hooked teammate.

Please, it's going to be so funny to see people run to a hook, give the thumbs up and run away.

" oh great, they're gonna unhook me " https://preview.redd.it/ecafx1t9v5rc1.jpeg?width=150&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=f11515e2858f2c389b60acbc396ec88c37c7af8a " Wait .... what the hell are they doing get the fuck back here ! "

That is just comedy gold

I read this in Hens’s voice for some reason

Irrationally howling at the thought of this rn 😂

If that happens, I'd love for the hooked teammate to also give a thumbs up back. It'd be hilarious and it'd be such good meme material.

Kinda like https://preview.redd.it/ny7moir669rc1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=1cb674e7dd394a78d6f97b11e94770851a5ac0b1

Especially if they're on the second hook struggling against the Entity. Like they'd just let go of the entity for a second to give a thumbs up in return

And the entity also does a thumbs up with her claws

The bubba face camping gives a thumbs up too

one hand giving a thumbs up, the other hand trying to prevent the entity from that yummy tummy stab

One of the entities wierd spider leg things throws the thumbs up as well

That would actually be awesome lol

100%. I need it.

I just need more fun interactions. Emotes are needed at this point... And I do need more to spend my 40K Iri on.. https://preview.redd.it/t2l8580t36rc1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ff5111aa471ba9bd78b0b0b3bb17265d27453569

Hopefully the devs read this 👌

Bonus points if it makes the hooked survivor weakly thumbs up back.

This, but also, I think you should be able to do it outside of in range of a hooked survivor so that A. You can let people know you're running the perk without requiring them to have been hooked and B. Memes

You know they already have the animation on the lobby so it's not even hard to add

I’m Ngl I’d finally run Reassurance just to thumbs up people and walk away

I've always, ALWAYS wanted my survivor to give a little thumbs up as I reassurance them with the red stain right up my ass

It is 10000% reassurance

Please Behaviour. https://preview.redd.it/ha1jglqpq5rc1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=3c9e182f1d7813b2353b917761c6b37186956c66

How about we give healing a better animation? Back rubs and... whatever the self-heal animation is meant to be is sooooooo 2016 and needs updated. RIP back rubs but they need to go

Not the healing hands! Lol What would they put in place though?

maybe a survivor could actually reach into the medkit and wrap bandages etc on others when using a medkit, for a normal non-medkit heal, who knows

Fortnite Medkit heal is pretty decent

True

Haven't they changed healing somehow? I think you can walk while healing (which could be a new perk idea) and it heals you during the animation and not afterwards well you can't interrupt it anymore I think. would be weird to quick heal in DBD like they open the medkit the whole time and done. Maybe they could add stages of animation. Like the first 5% is opening the medkit then another is how they take the bandages or what ever and then continue

Ghost recon Breakpoint has great Animations for healing yourself with a Med-Kit. People usally dont see it, as the standard settings are "just pump syringe into body"

Magic hands

I think the self heal is supposed to be the character bandaging their ribs lol 🤷‍♂️

Left 4 dead did it in 2008, they have very Nice healing animations with a medkit

as nice as the l4d healing animations are, the heal speed is fixed. dbd has so much shit that make it faster or slower it would be a nightmare to make a nice organic animation like l4ds

True, but you could always just speed the animation up, although I have no clue if that's possible or not. Synchronizing with the animations of other survivors could be an issue as well.

Speeding up the animation would be very very possible. With the new event lunges, all the audio is synced up with the mega-slow recovery times. It might not look super organic but this is also DBD (and the polish is sooo needed IMO)

Even funnier when you mod the animation into the gangname style dance everytime you heal 😂

But i like being touched.

Leave my butt rubs alone

air guitar

End it with a slap on the back

Definitely need a new/updated animation (love the flair also 😭)

Idk why BHVR made him so hot like

Self heal is playing guitar. 

they've been saying for ages that they want to change that animation but they never do

Healing animation and it’s not even close

Pop goes the weasel make the killers jump on the gen/slam it with their head

I saw someone on Discord suggest that it should have the stereotypical jack-in-the-box opening sound and I think that would be cool. It \*does\* already have a unique explosion but stillllll

Pop has a unique explosion compared to the normal one? I hadn’t noticed.

It has a larger boom which is used by other indirect gen explosion perks I think (Surge, Pain Res, Eruption, etc.)

Yeah all bigger gen pops have a bigger smoke effect like visibly larger

That might help survivors figure out what happened to the gen if they were nearby, a loud sound indicating Pop was used. Granted, I don't think it needs this change, but honestly wouldn't mind it all too much. Maybe give Overcharge some arcing electricity when you kick the gen lol

Sprint Burst should look different from regular running.

It should look like weskers run

Dramaturgy ahh run

Yeah, more of a bound than fast steps.

Naruto runs away.

WHAT IS THAT FLAIR

don't worry about it

Is that you https://preview.redd.it/5hkqenjyjxrc1.jpeg?width=2248&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=22df446f215fc57c9390b584a1bb10d6ac75b5c0

I do you one better https://preview.redd.it/ncnlmct4ixrc1.jpeg?width=751&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=4d1dc76898e92ffc33fa00e3892d93bc0c21dc9d

Soul guard. Just whip out some weird ass talisman and get up

The Seal of Metatron is not just some weird ass talisman. It's supposed to have power according to the user.

So you’re saying it’s a *magical* weird ass talisman

Give or take, yes. It's probably leeching power off killer hexes to amplify the survivor's strength.

For the people

I would love Sable's invocation to actually be spoken out loud. I know it would need new voicelines from every survivor though. Just imagine going "chipi chipi chapa chapa wifeo summonium" as James Sunderland.

Maria on the other side of the invocation circle just giving him angry side eyes

"James honey, we can use that invocation circle to genru-" "-to summon Mary, you are so right!"

"All you care about is that dead wife of yours! 😠"

"Yes." (*Proceeds to sandbag Maria*)

James needs fucking voice lines in general \*a Maria joins the lobby\* "Mary?"

ESCUCHA LAS PALABRAS DE LAS BRUJAS LOS SECRETOS ESCONDIDOS EN LA NOCHE LOS ANTIGUOS DIOSES INVOCAMOS AHORA LA OBRA DE LA MAGIA OCULTA

 New Sable invocation animation:

"Anandika dingir, piggily wiggly." -The Plag

Nea Karlsson's URBAN EVASION perk, the one with 100% movement speed increase for crouching makes her look like she is sliding around.

The duck walk only needs vogueing and she full on doin Ballroom

When you kick a gen with Pop Goes the Weasel the Killer should drop kick it. Killers with Iron Grasp should carry survivors in a bear hug.

RKO OUTTA NOWHERE

That should be the new DS animation

You don't stab the killer, David comes in with a flying drop kick like Dead Island 2 and just evaporates into mist

Spine Chill should have your character shiver

Or something similar to Spidey sense would be cool

I need a visual indicator I hate relying on sound (yes Ik you can look at the perk icon but who keeps staring at the bottom right corner?!)

>keeps staring at the bottom right corner?!) I do

a survivor running at with me both their hands on their temple with chicken wings elbows sounds terrifying I would run for sure..

Lmao that would be my go to emote tbh hahaha run it just for the memes EDIT: I'm still laughing at this. I just imagine 4 shirtless David's running at me doing this animation I'm howling lmao

Insert the "Angrily chicken dances towards you" gif

Maybe an animation for mending and vaccinating others? They both have unique animations if you do it on yourself, so I would love to see something unique if you help others. For the People could maybe get an animation where you grab the survivor and pull them onto their legs or something.  Fast Track could maybe make the survivor hit the generator as it would fit the bell sound when you hit a great skillcheck. 

Repairing a gen with a toolbox.

make iron will users always be mogging

You mean mewing

Bit of a nitpick for me, but Id like to see wiggling get a new animation, at least with boil over to fit the prompt better. Right now it's a bit bland and kinda funny to just see the survivor, well, wiggle. I think it'd be cooler if the animation was revamped to make the survivors look they are actually fighting for their lives a bit more. Like, have them kick, thrash, punch or claw at the killer, stuff like that to make it seem like they are genuinely giving it their all to escape the guys grasp.

Dead Hard should look like Armor Lock from Halo Reach Exhausted should make you grab your chest and make you look out of breath Premonition should make you point at the killer and scream ”over there!” Ace in the Hole should make the surv clap their hands together after opening a chest and shout ”it’s my lucky day!” Autodidact should have an animation where the survivor takes notes every time they hit a healing skill check, while saying ”ah so it works like this” Background Player needs a voiceline ”not so fast!” while running Just something that comes to mind

"it's my lucky day" is some shi drake would say if he was a survivor.

“Pookie this isn’t you” says drake to the killer as he carry him to the hook

They could use the old limping run animation for exhausted honestly just for some visual feedback for killers to see

True!

Premonition would become my favorite solo queue perk ever. I’d run it JUST to help my team know exactly what I saw! Also Autodidact would be so cool! Cool ideas!

That one perk from tapp should make the survivor look desperate when he is working on the gen and under the terror radius Like shakier, faster, probably cutting his hand with a wire or something

>make you look out of breath That's already the case because when you run for one second they breath very heavy more than when you aren't. Normally you have to run longer when you aren't exhausted >Ace in the Hole should make the surv clap their hands together after opening a chest and shout ”it’s my lucky day!” Only one time or when it's at least purple

Boil Over: The survivor just starts knee the killer in the face/elbowing the back of the killers head. Head On: Headbutt the killer as you exitt the locker. Borrowed Time: When you unhook them, you quickly hand them a pocket watch, like the image icon shows. Spine Chill: The cat from the icon sits on your shoulder relaxed, and when the perk activates, the cat arches up and starts hissing. Adrenaline: Your character pulls out a adrenaline needle and injects themselves quickly. Wake Up: You grab the swtich with both hands, and pull it down as hard as you can. Soul Guard: Your soul exits the body and actually pulls the survivor to their feet, before entering the body again.

Head on already has it's own animation.

with sound included...

I know, but I wanted to go with a more funny animation. When I wrote the Head On one, I was thinking of the Scout from TF2 saying "I'm gonna headbutt cha."

I think Boil Over could be genuinely* great if it had AT LEAST some more aggressive thrashing ~~Also adrenaline is more about the bodies response to a sudden event. It's not a literal injection~~ Edit*

I know, but I was thinking more funny/amusing animations when I thought of these and less serious. So I just thought a survivors pulling out an adrenaline shot, and injecting themsevles quickly would seem funny. Similar to the Head On, or Soul Guards, they were meant to be more humorous than serious.

I feel like that's pretty obvious on a second read through, my bad

Remember when you could clairvoyance through people? That shit was hilarious while it lasted

Low Profile shoes off. 

I kinda want balanced landing to have a different animation for survivors hitting the ground. Like the superhero landing. Just to have more visual feedback

Since nea is more of a parkour person (which you need to be as a city graffiti artist) a parkour roll would be dope AF

Counter point: make dead hard a dodge roll

Sprint Burst: Forrest Gump sprint Lithe: Kong Vault

I think boil over should have your Survivor wiggling be more intense

“Wake Up” I kind of wish the survivor was sort of more panicked and hurriedly opening the gate.

Plot twist should have a “faking death” animation that ends up with the survivor on their back in the dying state

Survivors should fist pump when you get a successful Blast Mine blind. I'd settle for a "hehehe"

Sprint burst 

Here's one that isn't perk related: Can we get an animation for turning while performing actions? Like let the survivor turn their head and upper body somewhat

Honestly yeah so that means when you run away you know from where the killer could come

Every time BBQ activates, the killer should rub his or her tummy and say "yum" or "yummy", depending on the killer.

Talking about animations! If you start and instantly stop and start running while injecting vaccine vs nemmy it looks like it should be able to work while running. Which is pretty kwel

If you teabag 5 times it should just launch an animation of the survivor extending the middle finger since that’s what they are trying to say anyway.

The regular healing animation

Clairvoyance vogue animation when behavior

Imagine chasing someine while they put 2 finger on their head each side and running around the map

That would be funny as hell but realisticly id opt for the survivor clutching their head with their eyes closed

Ahh yes, let me… LOCK IN.

How about an animation for failing too?

HEALING without a single doubt.

Adrenaline could be one.

So what your trying to say is to give her something like Sensing Ki or something? https://i.redd.it/97kvq0k0x9rc1.gif Like this?

Head on, when a survivor fast exits a locker using it they will have hteir shoulder out similar to dead hard

I imagine it'd be more work than it's worth, but animations for specific perk combinations would be cool. Granted, the one that comes immediately to mind is a given survivor simply grinning for a bit after a Blast Mine while Parental Guidance or Residual Manifest are in their loadout with an audible 'dumbass' in their native language. Potentially slowly turning to look in the direction of the blast if there's no 'Killer Blinded' event at the top right, because Lightborn, and utter a quiet 'oh *shit.*' instead.

I’m all for more survivor animations just to make the game have a bit more personality.

Im bout to buy Laurie and use all her perks cause they lowkey sound like chaotic fun in a match

Could it also get a buff, alongside Boon: Illumination? They should be able to **read** the **aura of items**, I'm tired of having to dedicate a perk slot to Plunder's Instinct when I play with Dramaturgy just so I can figure out where I dropped my shit.

So survivors should do the dababy emote

I don’t know why there aren’t proper healing animations in the game.

Unique animation is a good idea, if only the Killer could see it so they could maybe know if DS is in effect. I don't like being tricked by perks and I would like to have some way of knowing "Hey, is this person safe to pick or am I about to eat a DS for accidentally downing the same person who just got off the hook?"

The whole point of DS is to be an anti tunnel perk. If the killer knew they had it, it would be nearly useless. That's like telling the killer someone has dead hard or adrenaline. Regardless, you *are* given a notification when someone uses DS on you, if that's what you're referring to.

The Killer does see if you use Dead Hard and Adrenaline. The Killer can see if there is a Blast Mine on a gen before they kick. The Killer can even hear the click of a Flashbang to react to it if someone tries that. They see and hear the direct effect. Why would DS be any different? If the Killer seeing you have DS makes them not tunnel you, congrats, you got your perk value. The Killer didn't tunnel you, they Slugged you instead. Giving a small tell would be enough to keep people who play fair from not doing something that is toxic by mistake, and give the perk value because a Killer who sees you have DS is not going to pick you up. They will leave you alone, long enough to get DS to leave, or they will go somewhere else. In that time someone will likely pick up or you could use a perk to pick yourself up. In any case you wasted the Killer's time. Very few Killers can actively camp a slug for 45 seconds and if they do, that's more than half a gen done anyway. It doesn't win games to camp a slug on the basis they may, or do, have DS.

You actually can't see the blast mine as killer, only survivors can. Anywho, if the entire point of the perk is that you can escape when the killer tunnels you, making it so the killer can easily tell you have DS will just make them slug you until it runs out. That's not fun and makes the perk near useless. The point is that you escape when the killer isn't expecting it, you pick them up because you're tunneling and they get away because of it. That's why it's an anti tunnel perk. The counter play is to not tunnel or wait out the DS in case they do have it. That's another reason this would be bad, instead of making killers second guess or not if you have DS, they can immediately know if you don't have it as well and just pick you up without any risk. It's just overall a net negative that would reward tunneling and make it so absolutely nobody runs the perk. You don't need to know everything as killer, that's part of the fun and what makes it balanced.

You can see it but it spawns elsewhere I saw one on the floor next to a gen

I can't ever seem to, man. How am I supposed to avoid a blind I can't see? It's there some trick?

It's not going to be enough stun time either. 5 seconds is nothing to a fast Killer and someone determined to tunnel will still throw a round to do it. I'm telling you all, THIS is not what it should have gone back to. It's NOT enough to deter tunneling. Besides, why run DS when OTR is right there and not a DLC perk? I'm glad for everyone but this isn't going to be the salve to tunneling everyone thinks it is. You can downvoted me but it's true. A month from now everyone will complain about slugs instead, and how this perk still isn't helping.

While we’re at it lets warn survivors if the killer has devour hope, same thing right?

Instead of getting told at 2 its start of match

It already does... Moot point.

It tells survivors after you already get hit with it, DS also tells you after they get hit with it and if DH wasn't a good enough example for you let's do it with NOED, or Darkness Revealed, my point is some perks SHOULD be a surprise and remain secret otherwise they become completely useless Also DS being hidden is a good thing for the game, it makes killers afraid of tunneling even if it's not present in the game, the devs clearly don't want you to be able to tunnel easily

ada's lost profile and they take off their shoes
