Devs what were you smoking when you added pallet VFX?
WHO THE ######### ASKED FOR THIS? All it does is give headaches to people, what are your ideas behind these? I don't care about ghost face, but can you remove that effect please nobody wanted?

I knew Ghost Face would still get nerfs.
Gets knocked out of stealth from pallets, detection range increased for survivors to break him out easier and weakened his add-ons. It'll just be added LATER like the post said. Well, he's still getting nerfed. He's OP, boys. Get ready for the bullying at Red Ranks.
Gruesome Gateau Offerings?
I understand they can only be found in the bloodweb during the event. But if we collect a sizable inventory, will we be able to burn them after the event ends? Or will it be like the pustula petals, bbq invitations, etc?
BBQ&C bug
Hooked killed all 4 survivors, got only 3 stacks.
This is an emergency. Fix it asap please.
Re: Proof Devs A DO NOT LISTEN
@KaoMinerva don't matter to me.
Look through the other 10 threads.. I'm sure there is a response from a dev in there.

Regarding the Ghost Face Nerfs
For those who don't know who I am, I am reputed to be quite critical of BHVR at times, and am incontrovertibly a Killer main. On the PTB, I was equally outraged at the egregious lack of strength Ghost Face initially had. Lastly, I agreed that Ghost Face did not need any nerfs.
With all of that said, a Killer's power should NOT derive from the impossibility of utilizing their counterplay, such as staring at Ghost Face doing absolutely nothing when it's intended to work. Ignoring the shifts in power and buffs, these were the negative changes:
· Pallet stuns will now break Ghost Face out of stealth.
· Marked Survivors may no longer be stalked.
· Detection area of screen slightly increased for Survivors attempting to reveal Ghost Face.
- Pallet stuns are indicative of the Survivor's knowledge that you're there, and this is frankly a rare occurrence anyhow. This change is no cause for widespread outrage.
- This was an unintended mechanic to artificially inflate the Exposed duration, would only work on Survivors whom don't simply look at you to boot you out of your power, and was almost certainly an oversight.
- This is a 4% increase to the size; there are times a survivor can be staring directly at you out in the open and it won't kick you out. We'll see if it's too large when it hits live, but at first glance this seems fine.
I'll end with this before I'm accused of being an apologist; all of these changes promote healthy gameplay, but the somber reality is that Ghost Face will NOT be viable, but it isn't because his power sucks or is poorly designed, it's because the context of the game is completely skewed. Map design and the Emblem System will be the death of Ghost Face, and it's important that we not see the forest for the trees.
Killers shouldn't need to be as strong as Nurse or Hillbilly to be viable, they should have ample counterplay and still be strong. The complaints we should be making are that mid tier killers aren't viable, not that killers aren't designed to be top tier.
Proof Devs A DO NOT LISTEN
You release this killer on PTB and he's utter GARBAGE. You give just enough before release to get people interested, then NERF!
You sent Freddy to the abyss like this before!
You did this to Pig with EGC.
You BURIED Legion.
You sent PLAGUE to the depths of Atlantis.
Now... You nerf ghostface! I won't be buying him. We knew you'd do this YET AGAIN and you proved us right. You listened to NOTHING and went ahead with your NERFS anyways! This is messed up. It's a shame you're so scared to introduce a killer that's actually a threat!
