killer is a joke against SWF until it isn't lol

playing as killer is a bully fest against well coordinated SWF teams but rarely you can stifle their plan and destroy them, though it's not very often....Either way it kills the solo survivor experience..... opinions?

    I get what you’re saying, it can be miserable to go against a coordinated SWF but it also goes the other way around, it can be a bit frustrating to go against a super strong killer in solo Que where you can’t rely on your teammates to finish the gens, save, and run the killer.

    As someone who plays a lot of solo yeah I can agree.

    I definitely agree that solo survivor is mostly miserable right now due to matchmaking. Disagree on coordinated SWF being a bully fest though. If it is a bully fest, we have a matchmaking problem.

    I just want to leave as soon as i notice its a swf. It doesn't matter how hard bhvr push that it isn't cheating. Everyone knows it is. Chisel it on a damn stone tablet for all i care it doesn't change the fact that coms bypass a large chunk of mechanics and even killers in this game.

    I was on autohaven chasing a survivor and saw an injured one in the distance going for the hook save. I waited for them to be out of sight and i was going to break off and get them just before they unhooked. By luck Tinkerer procced making it even better. They were behind 3 jungle gyms and i had no terror radius so there was no way to hear or see me approach. I arrive at the hook and nobody is there.. I walk to where i saw them last and they are off in the distance pointing and crouching.

    The survivor i was chasing warned him over coms. Checked profiles at the end and they were all on each others lists.

    Its boring to play against and it just turns you into a robot because nothing else you do matters when they can just call it out.

    I honestly feel like the map design is a bigger obstacle than whether or not friends are communicating. Hard to call it cheating when they throw the game out of altruism to save their wittle buddy from them time out. Poor baby survivors...

    Like i said, It's boring and they turn you into a bot. I don't want to camp. I don't want to tunnel. I want to make plays and try to make survivors screw up while getting chases etc.

    I would love the game to be balanced with no hook timer and a competent map designer that allows the killer time to go for chases and survivors to body block etc. Make the survivor rank a result of the group outcome to promote team play, instead of escape or die. make gens take longer or more of them so the killer has time to do anything.

    There is no point suggesting anything to developers that take 3 months to change a 2 to a 3 on a perk and call it a day for another 3 months.
