Hey BHVR, since you semi-fixed pallets, can you fix killer grabbing to actually work more than 30%?

It's so annoying going to grab someone and then you get stuck in the animation and they get off free anyway, so stupid

    They actually broke pallets. Constantly getting stunned like 5 foot away from a pallet. I can visibly see the gap between me and the pallet and even have to run after the stun to get in range to break the pallet.

    I hate cancelled grabs a lot. In olden times, before dedicated servers, they used to turn into M1 hits, which was fair. It's hard to sync that stuff up, so it makes sense to me that sometimes what seems like a grab would actually be mistimed and downgrade from an instant pickup to a hit. But, with the current system, what seems like a grab -- or in some cases, just what seems like a hit -- downgrades into two seconds of immunity for the survivor. It really sucks when your reward for correctly predicting someone's movement and getting into the right position to catch them turns into a buff for them.

    This was always the case, at least as long as I've been playing. The hitbox is wider than the pallet itself.

    As for the topic, I wish that if the game had to cancel a grab, it applied a damage state. It's profoundly unfair that you would have gotten the hit had the game not decided to turn it into a grab and then decided that actually, a grab couldn't happen. If the grab didn't happen, it would have been a hit. Make it a hit.

    But then survivor couldnt do the vault-into-you-with-lithe-tech anymore.

    A failed grab should really count as a hit.
