Head On Buff Idea
Once the perk is activated the locker will highlight yellow to all survivors in a 10m radius.
This would let my teammates know what I am up to and we can potential get a save or stun the killer in a chase.
Not sure if this would be op or not. What do you think?

Please no. It’s already a troll perk. Let’s not increase its strength to bully another player

When I play killer survivors usually miss because their timing is off. Never been bullied with it but I can see that happening at lower ranks maybe?

Pray to god you don't go against a SWF with head on. It sucks being led around a corner only for every last bit of momentum you had being taken away by someone in a closet.

On the one hand sure, on the other, bullying killers should be discouraged.

I had a Midwich match two nights ago as oni. Swf red/purple rank squad where everyone ran Head On. Two hooks, two moris. Feels good man.

I play 50/50 and I am not out for bullying killers ;_; Im just a poor solo that loves Head On but can never use it effectively outside of a surprise locker stun.
I thought if maybe my team knew I had it then they could chase towards me or go down in front of my locker.
At the end of the day bully swf will be bullies, highlighted locker or not :<

I can assure you that going against a highly skilled, highly coordinated SWF all running Head On, expertly managing their exhaustion timers to take turns to stun the killer mid chase with somebody else, so that you can NEVER get a down, EVER, is one of absolute most miserable experiences a killer can have in this game.
I’m just relieved this strategy isn’t more popular than it is, because it’s frightening just how well it works for those sorts of teams.

Your experience isn't universal, because if it was, I would be trolling for using perks like DS, Unbreakable, Soul Guard, Sprint Burst, Adrenaline, and so on.
Just because you find Head On annoying doesn't mean others do. The stun is easy to bait out, takes coordination to use, and requires two survivors to pull off, if you're getting bullied — there's a greater problem than just the perk. Especially when it's one of the more underused / out classed exhaution perks.
A small change won't be end of the world, I promise you.

Do people really think it’s just a meme?
I call it a get out of basement free card.

Seems like a good buff. Changes like this close the gaps between solo queue and SWF just that little bit more.

Someone made the same suggestion a day or two ago, and I agree with it. It would allow people to coordinate things like that in solo.

might just be me but when i get head on'd i usually go you ######### in a joking manner or think oh this is a real gamer.
