Power Struggle + Flip Flop Dead?
Not being able to stun the killer from the same side that you're on has killed this combo. I used to run this perk combo from time to time to mess around with, rarely got any use, but it was incredible when it worked. But it's been twice now where I've attempted to use it and it didn't work, simply just pushed the killer away.
I haven't been able to record it myself, but found this guy on Reddit that had the same issue.
Can't even call it a bug, cause it's intended to not be able to stun on the same side that the killer is on. Just thought I'd let people know. (:

BHVR why

I agree with one of the commentors on Reddit. This seems to be a "fix" for their new hit validation forcing Killers on the other side of the pallet when you reverse stun then previously.
God, this hit validation just needs to be removed.

I'm mostly happy with the validating, especially when I play survivor. I've felt it a few times as killer but not that often. I even had a game where killr walked through a pallet, I dropped it like as soon as he walked to it and it just pushed him back and didn't stun him or let me escape. :/ Guess from now on you have to wait till the killer is exactly in the middle of a pallet before using Power Struggle.

Omg no...I liked this perk, it was fun to use it sometimes. I'm really disappointed

That's lame. I'd rather have the improved hit validation with pallets at the cost of it, but it just seems like it's another situation like lockers with Head On.

Oof. That really sucks. That combo was already really niche, but could be really clutch for a meme build. I would make a bug report out of that, because even if it's intentional, it makes Power Struggle LITERALLY useless and they need to do something about that.

Honestly they should just re-do everything they did with hit validation. ######### ton of hits being robbed of the killers still multiple BS hits and while I'm thankful for the reverse vaccum pallets to be gone it basically made a perk worthless.

I wondered if that change would break power struggle.

It is an obvious bug, go and report it in the bugs section.

It's just a massive oversight and it's terrible that they didn't expect it to happen.

BHVR not fully understanding the impact of their dumb decisions is nothing new.

Same here. It was situnational and barely does anything like 90% of the time, but when you got to use it, it could be game saving :c

Tested it 6 times on custom game, still works, even stuns the killer and drops you on the same side sometimes

That's good to know

I wouldn't be surprised if custom matches still use p2p connections and dont use hit validation.
