    Well why should friends be punished for wanting to play together? Makes sense....not

    Game wasn´t designed with SWF in mind. Devs only added it after survivors lobby dodged non stop until they got into the same lobby as their friends (funny how those same survivors want lobby dodging killers to get banned). The game isn´t balanced around SWF. It makes many perks redundant and gives players an unfair advantage.

    I understand that SWF is a lot of fun, and that it will stay forever. But i think, the devs should introduce a game intern voice chat and balance around that. Instead of giving survivors more and more information.

    Nobody should be punished from the SWF.

    Killer has been punished for 2 years now.

    Yesterday's stream was pretty sad for me :( I play 50/50 survivors and killers, I have played about 1000 hours in total, rank 1 achieved on both sides, I have completed almost all the achievements) And I don't necessarily think that the changes they're planning are all as bad...in fact unhook invincibility and faking unhooks are pretty cool.

    But this game has still some core issues which they need to resolve first and they just obviously don't think that. They even talked about it this time!! Wow, that was a surprise!! Yes, some of the games are too quick, most of the killer's don't have a counter to gen rush and in addition they're are severely punished for it with the current emblem system. So what will devs do about it? They will think about it!!! Nice..So maybe in a year there will be some real balance stuff?

    Meanwhile they are focusing on "issues" like the build-in Kindred which is a really bad idea imo. In this current state of the game, It just means that the gen rush will be so much easier for everyone now. Wow!! I won't even be talking about the Hex totems which also still need some changes, same as the hatch and many other things.

    This game is mostly still stressful and quick as hell for the killers (on high ranks) and pretty chill and easy for swf groups (and for all the good survivors). It already seemed that the devs understand it..but they don't. I have lost all the hope that the they know what the game needs. But Yayyy !!!! We will have a new drop pallet animations again and nerfed Bloodlust and some other stuff no one was asking for...

    The changes that they're proposing literally make Sprint Burst the best perk in the game, even better than it is now in the "Sprint Burst Meta."
