Hiw to buff solo survivor without buffing SWF??

Please post here your ideas, since i really dont know a way to make solo survivor stronger with not buffing swf even more... unless minor stuff like an icon saying when a survivor is in a chase or stuff like that.

    imo Solo survivor is okay how it is, I like that it's more challenging as when in a SWF I find things 10x easier, yes it's annoying when your teammates are potatoes, yes it's annoying when you get tunneled and or camped, but that's just how games are there are many aspects that make playing a choir sometimes, ESPECIALLY in a team based game

    Totem counter/dull totem cleanse notification, "being chased" indicator for every survivor, buff other solo-focused information perks the way Kindred was buffed so that they're worth using.

    BHVR can do something simple like let solo survivors know who is in a SWF. When I recognize a SWF, I'm a little more confident in doing my own thing since most times they will help each other. SWF won't let their homies die if they can help itt.

    Or, they can even show all survivor perks being used that round. The perks don't even have to be linked to someone, it would just show up like buff icons on the top part of the screen, like in an MMO. If people don't want to share that info, they can opt out.

    giving solo survivors more information. For example letting survivors see if someone else is in a chase, adding a totem counter etc.

    I don't think you can buff solo survivor (aka the survivor role) without changing the game in a big way. With all the suggestions above they would give Survivors multiple extra perk slots, make perks obsolete, and leave the killer in the dust. If you start giving survivors free information, what does the killer get in return to keep up with this change?

    I don't mean to sound harsh, but if you want swf benefits, play swf. It is that simple. Don't have irl friends that play the game? The forums and many FB groups help you find people to play with on the same platform.

    A chase indicator for everyone besides the obession would be a good step in the right direction

    Any ingame mechanic that solos have are also available to swf/cwf.

    Even if "solos" for example got a chase indicator, the swf now doesnt have to inquire that info and can directly coordinate.

    Give solo survivors more baseline aurareading. Yes, it's that easy.
