Please put the Finisher Mori On The Back Burner

I genuinely hate all the changes proposed with the Finisher Mori dev update and BHVR has stated that "we're closely monitoring the feedback and this won't be on the next patch". So here's my feedback - put it on the back burner. This idea,either needs scrapping or tons more work and it's not something you should prioritize.

Focus up on that Solo Queue hell,please.

    They are... but they do need gameplay and feedback right now

    This isn't coming out with the 6.3.0 patch

    Seconded.

    I don't understand all the balancing work to get the kill rate to where they want it, only to flip the entire game on it's head and scrap any shred of balance the game had.

    Changing the main objective of killers from hooks to slugs, and then giving survivors basekit slugging counter, is such a monumental change to the gameplay flow I don't see how it can't completely knock game balance on it's head.


    This would be on par with something like, removing all exit gates, adding four more Hatch spawns, and having repaired gens produce keys.

    I know. I'm saying put this on the back burner for this year entirely and go look into Solo Queue.

    If your feedback is one way and the update is another way, that means something doesnt it? I dont want to break your fairytail but maybe all you can feed back is tears?

    Which in itself is also terrible idea that created 99% survivor incentives at +100% TBH

    I like how this went from just speeding up the end game, giving a Mori to watch to quickly finish the game

    to one of the biggest changes in dbd

    It IS on the back burner. This could still be another 2-4 updates away.

    Ok but no matter what they do to improve solo queue it will give the same result, killer mains will complain for anything, it's an anti slug mechanic and quicker endgame for everyone it's not bad, 45 seconds is very long and if it's a problem I'm sure they will nerf UB after PTB

    average kill rate is 61% probably 70 for solo Q, just chill out and wait PTB

    Will it?

    What are solo survivors going to do when a team mate gets slugged halfway across the map when they know they have Unbreakable?

    Before you would try to rescue them.

    Now there's no incentive to do that. For one you're risking getting downed yourself and triggering Last Standing Mori, and secondly they can jus get themselves up in 45 seconds (but more realistically 60 seconds when they balance it after the PTB).

    So now getting slugged will be a guaranteed 45(60)s wait on the ground doing nothing.

    Soloq will be every man and woman for themselves.

    Alternatively killers simply won't slug at all because they know they risk you getting yourself back up again, so without slugging, getting downed is a guarantee that you'll get hooked, there's no chance of a rescue from a team mate, no chance to avoid that hook.

    The back burner is this not being in the game this year. That's the back burner. Like the back burner they should take away solo queue updates from.

    Honestly I am really excited for the new outlast. Did they open a playtestest to anyone yet?
