Hug tech vs wall clipping
not meant as us vs them.
But why complaints on exploiting and abusing blights hugh tech to slide around objects, where the same thing a la wall clipping is common to every survivor.
If we just compare movement of killer vs survivor, one gets stuck on every pointy pixel while other slides and gains a bit of distance?
Isnt that a exploit aswell?

By design survivors have smaller hitboxes, they did a stream at one point showcasing this - I could probably find it if need be
Hug tech is a bit different, it's more about how Blight's power works and can be manipulated by those who have the know how, to do things that aren't necessarily intended but not bannable or anything like that. Some people have said it's even intentional which I'm not 100% sure on but I could see it.

Neither are exploits. Survivors have smaller hitboxes than killers and learning how to hug a loop as tight as possible without getting stuck is a skill. Blight hug tech is intentional.

Hug tech = exploit.

Hug tech is not confirmed as intended mechanic, prove me wrong.

If you try to tell me you never get stuck on anything as a survivor I'll be the first one to say it's a lie and just because the hitbox is smaller doesn't mean you won't get stuck on on the tiniest thing possible while looping, hell there are even stairs on a few maps that if you try to hug tight you will get stuck halfway up the stairs, it's a problem for both sides in my opinion, sure you could be more mindful while chasing/looping but excuse me for believing that a board hanging an only an inch out of place on certain shacks shouldnt make me get hung up and that goes for both sides, I had it happen on Billy the other day I was chasing the last survivor left alive and because I apparently clipped the side of something the survivor got the hatch but we can't get a 4k everytime so it is what it is but frustrating on either side when it costs you the game.

Hug tech is actually a intended function:
mechanic: https://clips.twitch.tv/SaltyBeautifulFoxTriHard-d5EklvyTscZluOLe
Where McLean acknowledges sliding is an intentionally created mechanic: https://www.twitch.tv/mclean_yep/clip/SullenProductiveAlmondPastaThat-3gIl_qyQ2UAmaqun
Can't find the verbatim first quote given these were said nearly a year ago and I don't recall which VOD at which moment it was from, but I hope these suffice.
As a little bonus, where McLean explains the process of double flicking (flick, M1 to reset turn cap, flick again) is intended: https://www.twitch.tv/mclean_yep/clip/AmorphousFaithfulKleeTheTarFu-jPzbiLNS-Dku-899

Multiple responses. Come back and eat crow. If that shallow pride in constantly being misinformed you're rocking allows it :).

Quick question, but why are so many things to survivors "techs". They aren't even that hard to pull off, why do we slap on this word to make it sound like some super complex crap when it isn't lmao.

Because survivor one of the most mechanically simple things I've seen in a game. The game is 99% holding W/forward or M1/whatever console is. People take what they can get.

Some people act as if one needs a PhD to play killer.

It's just short for technique. And that's what it is. No one claims it's a super complex thing, they just use the proper word to describe the action being done. Pallet looping is a (tech)nique. Hugging a wall as blight and dashing, is a (tech)nique. Billy curving is a (tech)nique. a survivor faking a pallet drop is a (tech)nique. Do you understand now?

Guys it does not matter what McLean said, since he is not part of the team for almost year and a developer won't admit that he made bug with sliding so he says that it is intended.

OK

He’s LITERALLY THE CREATOR. You are the one that asked for proof, and now that you got it, it doesn’t matter? Moving the goalposts much? You should be an athlete with how well you can make stretches.

Its fake news he is not talking about hug tech. + its 9 months old.

Yes that's why he literally made a mechanic for sliding. You do realize Blight came out back in 2020, right?

McLean said that HUG TECH is a bug what now blight mains?!!!!

I guess you got no words now, the clip is also much newer than the one you posted and it ACTUALLY mentions hug tech.

https://youtu.be/PQC5Tc766XI this video is dedicated to the people that were saying that hug tech is intended mechanic.
@SuzuKR @fulltonon @ShinobuSK and many others.

Its nice to see how dedicated you are, but absolutely have no problems with other stuff such as how much time in loop you can get via wall clipping and especially clipping around rock tiles. How 360ing is in the same basket as hug tech and etc.
But tbf, blight flicks and hug techs no matter how much you master them, without pinball logic, blight will never be a good blight.
Lets face it aswell. this is bhvr, this will never happen :)

Oh yes, i am so sure that scooching close to an object and looking down to remove collision was totally intended and discussed during his creation...
Back to reality, it is just buggy code that they cant be bothered to fix.

Same reason why "heal tech" is some how not an exploit despite being unintended. Bias.

People really crying about hug tech? It's not even that useful in the majority of the loops and more for doing crazy predictions. Bump logic >hug tech.

The worst part of this sh1tt1 comment ia that you for upvotes

I know you hate it because Hug tech is a bug confirmed by McLean and recently confirmed by Design Team that it is an unintended mechanic.
https://youtu.be/PQC5Tc766XI feel free to watch and enjoy your bug while it lasts.
I agree heal tech is an exploit and the killer should be able to pick the survivor up. I am just proving wrong to the blight mains that are saying that hug tech is an intended mechanic.

Have the devs confirmed that the hug tech is intentional though?
