Balance

So are we just going to ignore the fact that this game has become so survivor sided that killers now being matched up almost exclusively with rank 1 & 2 survivors starting at rank 12 because the few killers that haven’t already quit or switched sides are struggling to get wins? Or the fact that we now have devotion 10 rank 1 killers face camping and tunneling just to get a kill? It’s getting ridiculous. In fact, it’s BEEN ridiculous for a long time now. Everybody gen rushes nowadays, and I’m sick and tired of survivors spawning on the same tile as ruin and cleansing it within the first 15 seconds of the match before I can even get to it. And, I’m sick and tired of getting face/proxy camped and tunneled by desperate killers at rank 1. This game is being tailored for yellow rank survivors, which make the mechanics easy to abuse for everyone else. Even though this game has almost a cult following, in that most of the community have been playing for a long time. I don’t understand the logic. And now they’re considering making a “teacher” killer. ARE YOU FOR REAL??? They make so much money off this game with all the new content and cosmetics, and they can’t even fix simple things like TOOLTIPS on a perk or a killer power that do things that are not even MENTIONED in the description. WOW!

    If this game was as survivor sided as you think killers would not be griping "i waited in que for 30 mins to find a game!"

    Where did you hear they were making a teacher killer? Detention files? If so that's old news.

    This game isn't even at a place where I'd say either side is favored at the moment. I'd say it's at the messiest it's ever been for both sides and that's part of the reason why both sides find themselves having long lobby queues.

    I’ve played for 2 years, and I don’t think I’ve ever had to wait more than 5 minutes to find a match as a killer. Ever.

    if you genuinly think this game right now is full blown survivor sided then youre clearly lost and need to get better. survivor QOL is HORRID right now and its never been easier for killer. get better.

    I don’t know where they get the info from, but it’s been circulating around the leaks community for the last few weeks. I’ve heard about it from multiple sources. I understand it’s old news, but apparently new information suggests they might be actually be considering it. And there was a recent interview with one of the devs that was pretty suggestive.

    Get good? That’s your suggestion? Rofl. You do realize I play both sides? I could literally say the same thing thing to you. Because whenever I play with my friends, we hardly ever lose. What is horrid about your QOL? The new medkits that heal you faster WITH sloppy butcher than the old ones did without it?? Are you suggesting the new the perks like inner strength aren’t amazing? What are you talking about, exactly? Because if you’re talking about the manner or aggressiveness in which killers play right now, I could give you a few hints why they do that.

    I stopped here because... what?

    Though I will admit that I switched sides, to Survivor, but this was MONTHS ago due to weird stress I get when I play Killer.

    I agree with you partly; they have openly admitted they want to balance the game around a casual level. And that is a terrible decision because as you say those in high elo who know and can abuse the mechanics will AND DO every. single. game.

    This is just another lie though because with that logic there is literally no reason to touch Nurse. However, they have shown this style of balance in most other areas though so maybe they were just vindictive, who knows.
