Mid-Chapter Update is Great for Killers and SWFs, Miserable for Solo Queue

I don't think I've ever been as miserable playing solo queue as I have after this mid-chapter patch. The lack of communication creates more chaos than usual now that healing has been made much more difficult. Solo queue desperately needs some sort of communication buff, either basekit kindred/bond/empathy/some sort of basekit aura-reading, or at least the ability to see our teammates' loadouts in lobby like on mobile (the amount of times I've had injured teammates run away from me when I have a build specifically designed to heal them quickly, only for them to go down again immediately, is very frustrating). SOMETHING so that it doesn't feel like we're just running around like chickens with our heads cut off. This game is already terrible for new and casual players, and honestly if I started playing this game now as opposed to two years ago, I'd quit immediately.

    "Much more difficult" Dude, just go to a gen. If you find someone let him heal you, if not do the gen. Like any person without a medkit or old CoH have being doing all along.

    You think this is worst soloQ experience?

    I had almost 2 year break from DBD and I actually don't mind playing soloQ for challenges now.

    It was hell before. It's easy if you use bond and those action icons help me a lot.

    SoloQ would still need some buffs for sure, but it will never be SWF level.

    I am killer main, so I didn't use medkit unless for challenge, because I don't like to play against it, same for DH and CoH.

    If I want to heal myself, I like detective's hunch and inner healing.

    This patch didn't change much for me. It's kinda funny to say this is worst SoloQ experience.

    You just got addicted.
