Fix the grabs

Anyone who plays killer often deals with these broken grabs. Its absolute garbage to deal with. Oh, you got a free pickup due to the survivors mistake? Nope, instead, your gonna start the animation, freeze for a second, and then have no clue where they went. Are the devs even planning on fixing this? Also, it isnt being addressed nearly enough if you ask me

    Grabs haven't been working for months. It's related to dedicated server ping. They really need to fix this.

    Grabs are sever side validation not killer, that is why they don't work. Are you looking forward to hits being server side too? Lololololol it's gonna be a cluster fck.

    i had a match about a week ago where i was going against a ghostface, and he absolutely outplayed me and managed to grab me at a pallet. but even though i saw him grab me and start pulling me back, instead i still ended up sliding across the pallet. so i just stood there and let him hit me because he earned it 100%

    To be fair though.. I pretty much gave up on playing killer a few months solely because grabs were so broken they were nearly impossible to land. It was like I as the killer was constantly being pushed aside and being denied the interruption ability, whether it was at a pallet, window, locker, gen.. it just wasn’t happening.

    Window vaulting is significantly better so getting grabbed like this while playing on the survivor side of things is much more forgivable in my opinion.

    Space Coconut did a video on what the problem with the grab animation! This is one of the few reasons why I really wanna tell the devs to hold off with making new content and fix all the bugs!
