Let's talk about new update

Greetings.

I've played this game since it was released but I never created one account here. Today that changed because of this new update, so let's talk about what I think about it.

The hex: ruin has always being a perk that we hated.

  • For killers: Because the survivors could find it in the first 2 min of game or even earlier, sometimes it appears in front of the survivor when it was supposed to respawn as far as possible.
  • For survivors: Because not everyone can hit great skill-checks and maybe for new survivors is a bit complicated.

I remember when this hex didn't exist, there wasn't that term that we all hear about nowadays, "genrushing". Survivors used to play a lot more with the killers, now most of them because of the ranking they only repair, farm his/her mates and those kind of things that have happened to us more than once.

So now I'll give my opinion as main killer. As I said before, this perk is troublesome for new survivors because they can't hit great skill-checks like experienced players, but that's the thing, they are inexperienced, they have to play a lot of time to achieve that.

Normally there's always a veteran that goes for the hex because he knows where it spawns and the others are repairing spaming M1 (I mean instead of holding M1, they press it and hold for a few secs and then release the key, so skill-checks don't appear).

At least that way it was more difficult to be genrushed but with this new update anyone can repair. For what I've understood, now all gens that are not being repaired regress "x" times faster than normal regression time. So for example if you are chasing a survivor and the other 3 are repairing different gens, they are going to fix them pretty soon. I don't understand how it can be useful then, survivors aren't going to look for ruin.

And the new Gatekeeper Emblem, same as before, if survivors genrush we are losing pip for sure. I'm mostly sure that all killers are going to use Corrupt Intervention. I mean at level 3 it lastes 120s, it's pretty much if you get (1*remaining generators) points per minute until min 9.

As I said before this is my actual opinion, I may change my mind during PTB but I don't think so.

If you are going to reply or say something like "that's because you are a bad killer, noob, etc", don't say it, I normally kill all the survivors I play againts in r1 and I'm being respectful so let's keep it cool right?

Good luck in the Fog.
