When will the hook grab update come?

I honestly can't wait for it anymore... just one hook grab can literally ruin the entire game for survivors especially solo Q survivors.

We get it swf is broken but there are a lot of people who don't play in swfs and I do believe that this will be a very good update to counter "camping" but obviously it will be a massive blow to killers...

Honestly I don't know how you could do it more enjoyable for both sides but the grabs are just stupid...

    camping is such a stupid little caveat of the dbd experience. Its completely unfun for everyone, but can also be your only option sometimes like in endgame. But then at the same time 2 survivors can easily shut it down completely... except soloQ makes coordination a roll of the dice.

    Absolutely I do get that sometimes because of the way the game was designed killers NEED to camp they don't want to but they are forced to...

    I just want Solo Q (which has improved a lot over the last few updates) to improve a bit more and the hook grabs were basically impossible to deal with in an uncoordinated solo Q lobby.

    I do not want the free escape card handed to me but not being able to do anything wasn't the way to go either... so yeah I really do not know what they can do to make it more pleasant for everyone...

    Actually maybe they should praise the killers more for chasing and not really for killing maybe that would be a route they could go especially when it comes to pipping/ranking up like in old dbd.

    But well I just want to know will the Update come with Cage?

    To answer the question: July 25th

    Unless I have somehow gaslit myself into thinking this was in the latest PTB.

    I feel like if you would be able to unhook WHILE the killer grabs another one it would be totally fine. That is not possible tho...During the grab animation another survivor cannot unhook and THAT is the problem...you have to wait for the grab animation to end and then they can just double hit u and boom they got 2 downs instead of 1... that is the problem. It is not a trade but too much...so they should make it possible to interact with the unhooking while another mate is getting grabbed. Not after the grabbing is finished
