Why lower walls...

In Coldwind Farm maps, the slaughter tree walls have been lowered.

This is not how you cancel the loop... This is enforcing it. Now survivors have no choice to loop untill the pallet is down and then run towards the next one. The whole reason looping exists is because survivors can see killers while doing so. We need less small walls and more big ones.

1 - Killers can use the LoS to juke the survivor and suprise hit them.
2 - Survivors can use the LoS to juke the killer and actually attempt to stealth away.

This is not possible with lower walls....

    I still remember when they said in a livestrem that they wanted to make the walls taller to enforce mindgames....
    Fantastic!

    This change helps huntress.
    they didnt manage to fix her weird hitboxes of the axes such that she can properly throw over stuff, so instead they lowered the obstacles. Classic BHVR fix

    Survivors will always see the killer due to 3rd person and the red stain shining even THROUGH SOLID walls.
