Broken game favoring killers

If you want to actually play the game and actually have a chance to win, you have to play killer. Survivors are very underpowered. I understand they want the survivors to feel vulnerable, to be afraid. But not even giving them the slightest chance of escape because of poor game mechanics?

The ranked matches are terrible. Absolutely horrible. Someone who just downloads the game gets matched up with purple ranks or even reds.

The game supports toxic play styles such as face camping, tunneling, etc. There's no punishment for it. Someone who is a new killer needs to have some sort of indication that camping is not an effective play style and it's only a toxic behavior. Perhaps they should add the tutorial from the mobile game in to all platforms. Showing them how to correctly play. Even in the loading screen tips they acknowledged face camping is a thing. Which is stupid because if they're aware of it, they should fix it?

Playing as killer is almost a guaranteed win, no doubts about it. Frankly, it doesn't even matter what perks you're running either. Playing survivor doesn't even feel like an option anymore because it's not even fun and you're not gonna win so what's the point of trying then. So basically the only game mode's here are custom games and playing as the killer.

Look, I love the game. I love the idea and the story behind it. The way the game is implemented? Not so much. It's trash. Another cat and mouse game that would actually be worth looking into and where you can actually have a chance to escape would be friday the 13th. Besides, it's more fun anyways. You actually enjoy the time playing it.
