Worst Killer You could have released (pinhead)
There's no words for how disgustingly horrible this killer is, really BHVR? really?
Ontop of stripping things from the chapter like his voice lines too?
If you wanted to make someone who was worse than Trickster THIS IS THE ONE
Everything Pinhead does is cool but takes 10 years and isn't balanced for how sweaty survivors play this game. He's automatically on the bottom row. a brand new killer.
idk about yall but i've lost hope and question buying the next chapter
Pinhead's power is so horrible and weak it does nothing for you at any point during a match other than hindering urself in a chase

I bought it for the perks, due to how weak he is and his lines being removed I have zeroooo interest in playing him.

I honestly want a refund

Dude it’s the first day try harder and practice and you’ll find a gameplay style for pinhead. People said deathslinger and twins were weak. Now there the most annoying killers to go against cause they have great strengths.
21 -
There's ZERO room for hope for this one dude, sorry. His chains don't hold the survivor for even a fraction of enough time for you to even get there, ontop of it being hard as ######### to land and easy as ######### to dodge. For zero reason, also survivors control what he does during the match his power seems like another one of those. He's trash just like the trickster and they need to stop ripping people off

Sounds more like a you problem then a BHVR problem I’m sorry but he’s not weak. Yes he needs buffs in some areas but your making him out to be worse than trapper which is not true also trickster isn’t that bad.

In case you didn't know, tagging devs or mods is now against the forum rules.

@ing people ain't gonna do #########.
Maybe wait a minute before tossing money at BHVR next time.
11 -
I'm sorry, I just don't see how he is weak. His chains are good enough in chase and he has a second objective built into his base kit.

scamming people for money is also illegal

Show ur rank otherwise ur say doesn't mean much. You just don't play against the same survivors, if you do ill take your word for it

Oh yeah The Twins are already forgotten, as they should be...

His chains are awful in chase?
They are only useful at unsafe loops.
Clown does everything Pinhead does but better, minus his slowdown.
The only time Pinhead is remotely threatening is when Chain Hunt is up and through 10 matches, it's never activated.
He sure is annoying to play against though.

I only played one game as pinhead so far. Steam reset and hit me with a 2 min penalty. My aim could be crap but the survivors had zero issue dodging my chains. It's so punishing to miss and yet the reward is slim at best. At least as nurse if I screw up a blink I'm usually closer to my target.
1 -
Sorry but this is 100% a you problem. I cant aim as Huntress, Nurse, Blight, Hillbilly. I can barely aim as trickster, yet i can hit the chains on Pinhead. Its about mind games and predicting their next move in a loop.
If you're using the power just when out in the open in a chase and far away, ofc you're going to get rekt. The whole idea is to use it when mid range or in a loop to predict where they're going to go to slow them down there and get a hit.
Watch some people play it and learn man. Instead of coming on here crying because YOU cant be bothered to learn how this killer is meant to be played.
TLDR? - Its a YOU problem.
5 -
I'm gonna watch videos of him but he's still worse than Trickster to me, he makes me wanna stay on trickster. like holy #########
0 -
his chains hold survivor for 3-4 seconds i think thats enough time to catch up.
1 -
Hes not weak, hes not strong but hes not weak. Hes comfortable mid tier right now. The OP hasnt taken the time or effort to think that because he cant work out how to use his power properly, then he must be the worst killer ever.
3 -
No thanks as much as you say its a "me" problem, others have said the same so sorry. I read the same talk before i made a post
0 -
A killer that teleports and uses chains so you can't move is not weak.
3 -
Do you even know how he works? are you good? You run out of it and it undoes it in 2 seconds. Whatever keeps you winning every match am i right
2 -
Example one of someone who doesn't think hes strong either
1 -
I just stopped playing this "game" after 2720 hours put in the game, I think I will just get those last 3 rift levels then never touch this game again
0 -
did you not watch the ptb streams and the 100s of YouTube vids released?
he is barely different than what he was on ptb they actually fixed a lot of his issues, the only real negative I can see is the removal of his lines but beside that just like they did with nemesis this patch they will buff him as is necessary in the coming hotfixes and patches.
5 -
No it is a you problem, and someone else said that in this thread too.
Funnily enough we saw the same crap on here when Nemesis was released. That he was useless, worst killer ever etc etc. I wouldnt be shocked if you made a post about him. I saw it with Twins, and i saw it with Trickster.
Just because you think and some other people cry hyperbole over a killer, doesn't mean you or they are right. I bet you aren't using his power properly, simple as that.
I dont think hes a very strong killer btw, but hes nowhere near as bad as you say. Nowhere near.
2 -
If you don't understand the anger some players feel with this chapter then thats on you, some people don't want to spoil the fresh new chapter.
I don't watch those i watch things when they have released.
0 -
the its your own fault not behaviour
4 -
How is it anyone's fault if i watched things on it today? They had that whole time to make him some what balanced and didn't
0 -
Twin is good against solo survivor but overall she do ok. Deathslinger is just a nerf huntress the difference instead of having a 2 second windup he recharge after each shot.
Being annoying does not make a killer strong if that was the case trapper would be the best killer in the game a lot of people find that killer annoying.
1 -
stop commenting and look at the threads dude. Also guess what, Nemesis got buffed this patch because he was ass with his own unbalanced issues
0 -
Yes, he agrees with you, Because one, two or 50 people agree with you, doesnt mean you're right. Millions think Aliens built the pyramids, it doesnt mean they're right. So using someone to back you up isnt valid pal.
But ill bite with these comments too.
You do NOT have to land 4 chains in a row to counter survivors unless you are using the chains too far away, as i already explained, its not meant to be used as a catch up mechanic when you're 50 yards away. Its for mid range and anti looping. Even if you dont hit them when they're still chained, you have caught up to them, lessening the length of the loop, making them use a pallet or take a hit.
Yes his addons makes him better, and i agree with Otz in a video of his where he suggested some of them could be made baseline for added power. But not playing with these addons doesnt make him bad.
And once again, i never said he was strong, i said he wasnt the worst killer in the game. If you are going to quote people and then say a statement after it, at least get the opposing statement right instead of trying to twist things to your own narrative.

here's another since you need it
0 -
You should have known from the last few releases what would happen with this chapter. You should learn to be patient with your money and not purchase things on release day. You should also know that you signed an agreement with Behaviour, giving them the right to change things as they see fit. You still have access to the character you purchased, nothing they did is illegal.
While I understand your frustrations, they will continue to keep pumping out subpar chapters with subpar characters as long as people continue to impulse buy their products and cosmetics.
6 -
Also just because you say PAL and don't agree with me and im wrong.. doesnt make me wrong I don't care this is what i've experienced from playing the game. I understand you don't agree with me great
0 -
I dont need to look at the threads. Im talking to you. Ifm replying to you. You are crying and nothing else. And using other peoples arguments to back you up because quite frankly, you do not have one.
1 -
I'm using the same argument that other people are saying to back up the point that hes ass and weak and thats what the other posts are talking about. Sorry to break it to you that other seem to agree with me. Move on
0 -
Grow up. Seriously. If you're going to post topics on this site, at least have the gumption and intelligence to debate poperly instead of acting like a giant manbaby.
Not everyone agrees with you because some people actually use the brain they were born with and can work out a killers strengths without needing their hand held.
2 -
Not everyone but as ive pointed out, other people think the same. Sorry you're angry people think the killer sucks dude
1 -
I like him so far, his chains are better than they were on the ptb. Using perks like hoarder will show you when a survivor picks up the lament box. If you're quick with his chains I.E. like quickscoping with deaths linger you get used to it fast. So far, I really like him
2 -
How do you like survivors escaping your chains the second you get there?? How is that a fun killer power?
0 -
they have never in the history of this game made any significant changes from the ptb to live any larger changes are made in the balance hotfix 2 weeks after release
this is how its always been
3 -
Which is why I'm here saying the things im saying. I just hope we don't have to wait 1-2 months for them to make him playable for most
0 -
And i've disagreed with you and offered insight into why, albeit i did do it in a bit of a sarcastic manner.
I've even agreed with others that he is NOT strong. My point in this is that he's not the worst killer as you stated and nowhere near the worst, i've explained why as a counter to your arguments and thusly you have proceeded to just spam this thread with what other people say which just leads me to believe you cannot think for yourself. You had a grievence, i explained why the grievence is wrong IMO, and you try to use other peoples grievences as a justification for your own? Some of them aren't even joining your narrative on him being the worst killer ever. They're just outling issues with him, of which with some i agree with.

It's all about when you use them, like nemesis' tentacle, {using it when you wouldn't get a normal hit otherwise, or over an obsticle} using his chains through windows or corners usually won't help much
2 -
Calling what i say stupid and your anger typing is already clearing me from responding to you. Disengaging now
1 -
Because its a slowdown mechanic. What do you not understand? Just like Freddys Traps & Clowns Bottles. They're not meant to chain you in place. They're meant to slow the survivor down for you to catch up, which you can do when you use the power correctly. I havent had much issues with them and id guess im a mid - higher rank killer. If you're a very high rank killer then our opinions may differ, but i know im using the power in a better way than you because i can catch up at get a hit 90% of the time i hit a surv with ONE chain.
0 -
Oh look, someone else who actually uses his brain and can figure out the correct use of chains. Give this man a medel.
0 -
Nemesis tentacle is way different from Pinhead's power though, even if i locked them behind something they escape so quick. nemesis hits infects, dmgs and moves on if he hits you not running to secure the dmg hit or whatever
0 -
Yes, you are correct, was mostly stating that powers have more than one way, or time to be uaed
0 -
Just faced him for the first time, 1k, he didn't bother turning up to puzzle solver, did it twice and he didn't show. He barely used his chain ability either, didn't get chained apart from the chain hunt which was annoying af when nearly finished a gen.
1 -
I played against a few who were like that. Some people just haven't picked up on his power. It was the same with Nemesis when he came out. I didnt die to a Nemesis for about 3 weeks. Then i kept getting rekt by them even at the same or lower ranks because people figured him out a bit more, and people will with Pinhead too.
See when i use all the abilities at his disposal correctly, i get a 3k minimum, usually a 4k.
