    Not really noticed this much, but if that were the case I would start slugging Survivors in the dead ends.

    The art team redid the map, so I think they placed the pallets as well.

    It was a rank 1 Legion that I think was only pretending to be afk to challenge himself. We were all red rankers. It wasn’t a 3 gen situation, but it was close. I gen in 2 corners on one side of the top floor and another closer to the other side on the bottom floor. He was able to get everywhere with high speed and of course with it being Legion it was almost impossible to hide from him. It wasn’t that we were bad it was that he was a very good killer and the map is too damn small.

    Sounds as though they actually made it more fair. This map was EXTREMELY killer sided before, so if they've added some more pallets or adjusted and reduced the deadzones then that is a first. Killers often used it as an offering it was so killer sided. Some rooms did not have a single pallet!

    Exactly, and if you arent playing with a swf tht knows what theyre doing you get dead zones really fast and the top floor the center gen area is basically a dead zone. I mean there are situations where u have to throw the pallet like when going against leatherface so thts understandable. All killer has to do is make sure to pick the "3 gens" and make sure to get those pallets in those areas get broken as fast and as early as they can and then its dead zoned with a high chance of getting a hit. As a confident survivor I hate the idea of throwing pallets as a way to get away from killer, hell it takes me a while to get my throw the pallets challenges done. They shld just add more windows. I actually didnt mind the previous game map just the only thing tht made it unfun for me was the fact tht it was too dark the lighting they have now is great.

    There is a big leap between what it was at and 30 pallets. Dead zones surfacing doesn't matter when the number of pallets is high enough that you can just throw them till the gens are done.

    DbD is over four years old and the devs still have not learned proper map design. This is one of the biggest reasons I am so critical of them.
