Pig got shadow nerf?

On Live Build, Pig takes 1.4 seconds to access [AMBUSH] and [STAND UP] from the beginning of crouching.

Nerf? Dedicated server problem?

In 2019 summer, Pig could access them in 1.3 seconds.

Similarly, amubush charge up takes 0.9 seconds. Previously it was 0.8 seconds.

    How did you get these numbers?

    .1 seconds could be a measurement error

    This video is 0.1 speed.

    Crouch: From when the button is hidden until the ambush button is displayed.

    Charge Up: From when the hand icon is displayed until it is hidden.

    I've measured many videos and all have similar results.

    I know every second matters in this game but 0.1 seconds..? besides i’m sure the devs didn’t intentionally “nerf” pig by adding 0.1 seconds to ambush.

    6 frames.

    Recently I often pressed the ambush button too soon. The mistakes caused by such a small change simply annoy me.

    And crouching Pig is 3.6m/s. Survivor can easily leave the loop while I'm slowing down by mistake.

    As math is open to the public, game should work that way.

    Good! More and more Piggies won't let me boop their snoot before having their way with my body. They deserve to be nerfed into the ground until they change their ways and share their snoots.

    But if this change has happened, it should be looked into or BHVR should explain why they’ve nerfed the Pig.

    0.1 seconds can be the deciding factor whether a Survivor gets downed before vaulting a point or dropping a pallet, it will effect those who spend time learning every aspect of a character until it’s muscle memory.

    0.1 seconds are already so small that a player would never feel a difference.

    0.1 seconds is a big deal if it this is true. Considering her crouching speed addon is one of her best.

    For those who are saying 0.1 seconds is insignificant, Resilience and Spine Chill shave off the same amount of time from a fast vault and can be rather significant. Doctors shock activation delay is another example.

    Hopefully if this is true they fix it, as Amanda needs help as it is.

    like I said I know time is everything but I don’t really play pig so I wouldn’t know how significant it is for her. I figured it was only 0.1 seconds more to stand up and to me it didn’t seem that big a deal if that makes sense. but i’m sure the devs didn’t think “huh 1.3 seconds is too strong. nerf.” then again devs hate pig so it could be intentional.
