New Chapter Players Missing
Even though the new chapter released,a pretty good one,the number of active players barrely went up.
It's sad that we've come to this conclusion,but it's the culmination of multiple unfair and bad nerfs to survivors that has left 50% of this game's content drier than the Sahara.
As it stands,only at night 00AM+ will I get bonus BP for Killer,if I get at all.
This is isn't a good number for survivors to have a lower or equal amount of players,it is not that sustainable.
Something drastic has to change,something that will be forged in the Killers' tears,a destructive nerf/nerfs to Blight and Nurse to light the path,for starter.
More content such as items and each survivor receiving a niche personal perk,a passive one such as:
Meg benefiting from any haste or bonus ms for 1 more second
Dwight not receiving a penalty for multiple survivors repairing a generator,
Jake beign able to sabotage traps with Saboteur or Toolbox as the sole one,maybe sabotaged hooks take a few more seconds when they've been sabotaged by Jake.
Mikaela beign able to see Auras of unlit totems in a 20m radius.
David having a 25% reduction when it comes to grunts of pain and pools of blood spawning.
Nea having 2s shorter scratch marks and them beign more chaotic.
These are just a few examples of what I have in mind,more like flavour changes to add a nice layer of immersive and fun.

numbers on Steam only didn't go up as high as last year, only 3000 fewer than last year on steam only.
idk if I'd call that "the number of active players barely went up."
Also we only went up like 10 000 players from our normal on steam.
I don't see how this makes you reach your conclusion either:

Did the Clown Face-camp you or something? That's rather mean towards our Killer playerbase imo. Please chill.

Yeeeess!! This would be amazing!! Absolutely agree about lack of players, it's taking longer and longer for matchmaking currently whether in swf or solo and tbh the last 2 new killers (skull merchant and singularity or whatever his name is) it's just made the game unbearable and frustrating to play, moreso when bhvr are too chicken to impose anti-slug/camp!
Just before reset I farmed so hard to get to iri 1 (only managed to get to iri3 and that took 3 weeks solid to get out of iri4) and so many killers would slug on 4 or 5 gens JUST so they can get 4k, or they face camp JUST to get a 4k (or even a 1k) so I'd end up losing pips coz I wouldn't have chance to get points elsewhere (gen work or being altruistic) that after just a handful of games I was done and quit the game. That's not how it should be, it should be enjoyable but with a hint of stress to get the blood pumping! It just makes me hate people even more lol....

This chapter is certainly not a "pretty good one", more like one of the worst because it brought broken survivor perk(s) and a worst killer, and probably a worst map too.

I suggested nerfs to top killers,and a few small ones to other medium tier killers to even the odds in favour of survivors a tiny bit,once again...
As you know,survivor players are just leaving or playing very little compared to killers...
This issue will grow,until we have 5-15 minutes lobbies again.
Do you want 5 minutes in a lobby for a 3 minutes game?

It's not only survs that get nerfs, all killers perks and power get nerfs, all gens slowdown perks get nerfs to oblivion when gens speed continue the same for years and new ones appears to make more mess in this hell of unbalanced game.
It's a war of this killers is op nerf, this surv perk is op nerf, this perk is op in 2 killers nerf, the state of playing killer now is that you NEED to be good in chases because you don't have good gen defense perks, impacting all m1 and 4.4 killers, making then more unfun to play, making in the process... Killers are tunnel more and camping more because gens are flying, if this happens in low MMR, imagine in high MMR when top play are giving they life on the match, killers and survs.
Even with a new chapter, if BHVR don't address all this issues, no one will come to play and this happens because Diablo 4 too

you know slowed match making as survivor means not enough killers, right?

That doesn't seem right. Seems like timezone issue and you simply don't play during peak hours.
I play on Europe servers and since 9PM+ it's almost always 100% BP for killers. Yesterday was new killer released and killers still had 100% BP bonus.
I usually get to play survivors only during afternoon on weekends. Otherwise it's always bonus BP for killers.

You never ever want to give different abilities to survivors. We don't need to create meta for survivor characters too.
It's bad enough their size and loudness are different.
multiple unfair and bad nerfs to survivors
that sounds as fun topic. Tell me, what unfair/bad changes?
I want to see if you can backup your claims. My guess is not.

It's 20:46. Europe server

Bonus BP is literally useless, I can have 5 seconds que with killers while having 1 minutes que with survivors, all while having 100% survivor bonus incentives.
It's broken.

I get bonus for killer starting at 6pm(50%) up to 100 starting maybe an hour later. Generally I ignore it until survivor queues get to be a couple minutes then I switch.
OP, your post comes off incredibly hostile toward a whole half of the game. You gotta stop with this pettiness. There's just no call for it.

From your post I understood that you have longer queues as survivor, which basically means that there is not enough killers to queue versus you and your teammates.
