    And yet, if i like to use a perk like knockout, it is very effective vs solo groups, but does nothing against swf. So is an swf playing smarter against that than solos? i think not, they just have the information advantage.

    And to be fair, when i was playing swf regularly, we always shared strategic information, it doesnt take long during the most idle chatter to say" killer is on my" and "we´re in the shack, go somewhere else".

    "They have to balance around it" - Yeah but that's the problem they won't, because they cant afford to get on the bad side with the 50% solo player but don't care to tick of the 10% killer player (numbers taken from peak times 8pm-1am and correlation of queue times)

    And there is one reason for it to BE implemented, no more excuse to not being able to communicate with others and therefore to not balance for it. If all survivor have the built in option to communicate then the devs can balance for it and if survivor don't use it, it's their decision.

    Killers treating comms like it was some kind of swat team communicating, you need to be actually skilled to run a killer and win chases. Doesn't matter how much they know about your location if the team sucks at running you.

    I rarely play with friends, but when I do we talk about other things mostly, we will say "hes camping me, do gens dont save me" or "u can get me" but other than thatwe dont say much.

    They really think we are like "alpha, killer is heading towards south east, I repeat, killer is heading towards south east, move the troops to the north and find gens in that location" bruh i swear this is what killers have in mind when in reality is "bruh did you see that meme i sent u?.. fak he saw me... im dead"

    I'm closing this here.

    We stated multiple times that using communication tools is neither cheating nor it is against the rules, we even have sections in the Official Discord for people to play with their friends.

    Please in the future refer to the game rules, as it's explained we do not punish for using communication apps:
