They really put the MID into Mid chapter update.
This chapter update seems great, and mostly it is, but here's a few problems I'm noticing on first glance.
1: NO TWINS FIXES???
Like, come on. It's been TOO long with having a killer THIS broken and with no reworks or FIXES.
2: Accidental nerf to oblivious / undetectable(?)
Let me elaborate with this one. With the new chase indicators, Undetectable and Oblivious could potentially be nerfed, considering you can now just see "Oh they're in chase" and have a decent idea of where the killer is, especially with Bond or perks like thatl. I think that's honestly not great
3: Knight fixes, but it's not nearly enough.
They did fix some problems with the knight which is nice, but the AI is still not great, he's not fun to play as or against as of yet, and he's honestly still not going to be as good as he could be. He'll still need more fixes after this.
4: Eyrie of Crows.
This entire map is nice, and while I'm not seeing a problem, I'm hoping the grass is at least decently plentiful like on Autohaven so I can actually play trapper and not worry about simply being UNABLE to use traps.
5: Wiggle changes.
Not being able to get faster wiggles is honestly pretty annoying, since it's a good mechanic to get faster wiggles for hitting hard to hit skill checks. This change also affects Controller players MUCH worse than it affects KBM players, which just kind of sucks. Speaking of, BHVR, please make controller easier to play on.
other than that, i'm really happy with these changes! please let me know what you think, and remember that these are MY opinions, not me stating this as literal fact that everyone should believe.

I do really like the update one of their best , these are some great Nurse changes that won’t kill her and keep her godly synergy with Aura perks and these were the exact changes I wanted for Nurse(plus TR and theme by looks of it). But, there still isn’t Twins changes which stink and there is still no changes for Red Forest or Backwater Swamp which is annoying for me

I'm in the same boat, happy with what we got, but was defintely wishing for a bit more (Especially with the Knight buffs, what we're getting is nice but it won't change that the boring way to play is also the most effective way to play him, which hurts to say considering just how creative Knight can let you be)
Maybe next mid-chapter though

I'm also very concerned about the wiggle changes as a console player. It's already kind of difficult to fit through a door on an indoor map cause of Boil Over

The undetectable and oblivius nerf is a good step. And im saying that when one of my mains is wraith.
It weakens wraith against solos, but now his weakness is more obvious in the data. I also dont need to guess if they are an swf and if they have the info, they have it now 100%.
I just hope that he gets a buff now.

The wiggle changes I'm not a fan of simply being a console player. It's why they nerfed Boil Overs effect for the amount a Killer is thrown off by a wiggle. The decrease in time didn't matter if killer was PC or Console. I think there will be more survivors wiggling free v console killers with this change.
I do find it surprising there still is no Twins update and I absolutely hate the Twins. For me less Twins the better but I was hoping they'd make changes that would make me not hate playing against them - like make slugging not the go to play style with them.
I'm not surprised that map is getting rework after all the complaints. I'm hoping there are plenty of places for Trapper to hide his traps. Really this should be done to all the maps. Since they started the "Realm Beyond" they've removed a ton of ground cover for traps which was an unnecessary nerf to Trapper.

They said not all bugfixes are mentioned in the dev blog, and I'm pretty sure they fixed the twins bug this update. Eyrie of crows has been a pain for a lot of killer mains, the random collision bushes, large layout and frustrating tiles made it really survivor sided. I'm sure almost every killer is happy with the changes to the map. Also, knight still just released around a month ago, it takes a long time to fix every bug with every killer especially since not many people report them. Overall I don't think this is a bad update, it gave a lot of what people asked for
