Kill Switch update: We have temporarily Kill Switched the Forgotten Ruins Map due to an issue that causes players to become stuck in place. The Map will remain out of rotation until this is resolved.

The Survivor role needs changes

The survivor role is where you get to chill and have fun. If you want to get a headache and lose motivation to play this game then you play The Killer.

I hope BHVR is monitoring closely what's going on at the top (HIGH MMR). I've been watching the killer streams these days because I thought, maybe it's just me having issues at high MMR, but watching some killer mains playing the game and being in the position where they can't do anything to win is sad.

I'm glad SBMM is introduced. It 'cleared the air'. It showed the true power survivors have. Killers get 5-7 hooks on average with no kills or they get two because survivors made a few mistakes during the chase.

Survivors' gameplay is flawed. It would be nice if DEVs added some changes that will make the game fairer for Killers.

I understand 2 kills would be the balance BHVR wants, but to get them you need to play sweaty, kinda like you did when you wanted 4K which in my opinion made sense.

Meanwhile, Survivors just abuse broken loops, perks that extend chase greatly & hold M1 on generators while occasionally getting a skill check.

    The devs have known this since 2017 but they don't care, nothing will ever change.

    Survivors need different things to do. Either you're good at looping and that's your job, or you sit on a gen for 3-6 minutes. And that's the game.

    Board up several existing vault spots and let survivors tear them down to open the loop up for later in the game. Reduce the number of gens you need to 4 but make them each take way longer and let survivors scavenge up some fuel or parts to make repair speed boosts. Let survivors undertake a multi-character task to 'board up the basement', locking it down for a couple of minutes in exchange for two survivors not being on gens for 30-some seconds. Limit boons to one-use like hexes but let survivors gather materials to recharge their boon. Put runes around the board that survivors can interact with to significantly increase the dark mist in a stacking effect (to the point where it actually HAS some impact).

    Literally anything. Survivors need other things to do to make the game more interesting.
