Survivors are bullies

Anybody else here thinking that survivors are more powerful than ever and they can do 10 gens in 80 seconds?

    They are definitely weaker than they used to be; they just learnt how to do the objective, which is something the game wasn't originally balanced with in mind.

    Yes. Sadly, for every one Jack Merridew there are typically nine Scut Farkuses.


    I am a survivor main, but whenever I play as killer for a daily/archive at level 18-20 against survivors anywhere between 13-20, I witness some....some ungodly things.

    It's really mindboggling to see maneuvers that yield no discernable benefit; I have actually stopped mid-chase on occasion in disbelief.


    Any competent killer - for the record I am not one of those....Put me in a Hillbilly and when his chainsaw goes off, I might as well close my eyes and let Jesus take the wheel - not to mention a truly skilled one will take advantage of these moves every single time.


    I have not even began to grasp the ultimate purpose of their long-game. For me, playing against a real skilled Trapper, Pig, Legion and a couple of others can very often elevate this game to something on par with a great chess match. You can have everything going well for your team in one minute and then have the whole map go FUBAR in the next one.


    These types of sudden game-altering moments in chess are not always a result of "blunders" , but sometimes they happen to be one of those very rare "brilliances" . The aforementioned bullies don't aspire to the latter, they don't even aspire to the former. Analogously, they are like a chess player showing up out of nowhere wearing a neon cape. who proceeds to kick over the chessboard, eats two of the pawns, sticks the rooks up his nostrils and pretends to mount the knight's horse and ride off into the sunset while running around screaming "EZ GGS "

    I mean throwing every possible social norm can be artistic, even cathartic but they cannot possibly derive enough enjoyment from these singular mental/psychological "victories" to so diligently continue their behavior.

    Nope.I'm starting to think 'Bullied' is now a new word for "I lost" or "Nerf this" or "This is totally unfair that someone is using in game mechanics, designed by the game developers, to be used in the game to win the game"

    Works both ways of course but the result is the same.
