Genuinely, Playing Against Springtrap Is Unfun In Their Current State...
Listen, you are probably expecting some rant about how "Springtrap is overpowered" or something like that, but I wanted to talk about something else… the bugs and glitches. Dear god I have never seen a Killer release with this many bugs that are actively detrimental to the Survivor experience while not negatively impacting (and only benefiting) the Killer experience.
Just to point out a few bugs that make them really unfun…
Springtrap is invisible upon exiting a Security Door. While people will say "just look at the panel on the Security Door" this does not always work since Security Door spawns can obscure line of sight of the panel. The fact that the invisible lingers make it to where you are likely to just get hit with no recourse or counterplay, especially when their teleport has no cooldown whatsoever.
Springtrap retains all Haste effects after carrying a Survivor. This means that you can run perks like Agitation or Play With Your Food, and if you pick up a Survivor and drop them, you retain the Haste for an extended period of time. You easily abuse this, and Ive come across many people who do abuse, especially with the Haste add-ons that they come with.
The Axe Aura sometimes does not go away. This can lead to effectively permanent "wallhacks" where the Killer can easily see the location of the Survivor. Since the Axe is removed on the Survivor's end, they cannot use the Axe removal prompt, meaning the Axe Aura reading on them become permanent until another Axe is throw onto them. This one is a bit more rare to come across but it can completely change the outcome of a match.
Audio issues. There were issues with cameras where the directional audio would shift directions, and while this has been fixed (for the most part), there are still issues where getting grabbed in the Security Office can result in audio levels being decreased for certain audio. You could just raise you audio, but this bug only decreases certain audio but not all audio, which means you have a severe imbalance in audio.
And because Springtrap is popular (rightfully so), I have to deal with this every… single… game…

I can't play survivor until the update because console updates require $$$, so it's either play killer or play something else.
I can't find the hatch, can't find gens, can't tell where the Killer is, it all genuinely hurts my brain. idk why the audios giving me a headache but it is.
others saying to me to sinply not engage with the intended counterplay sounds ridiculous to me so I'm taking a break. it'd be like saying just don't solve the box or just don't set up alien turrets.
sucks because minus the bugs I think Springtrap is a balanced and fun killer

Man you really just go into discussions and post completely random things huh?
You need to read maybe at least the first sentence and not just skim over key words to egregiously decimate a strawman.6 -

You both completely missed the point of the post.
I have no issue with the power itself. I am saying that the Killer is extremely bugged, and these bugs should be fixed since as it stands it makes this Killer really awful to face because of these bugs.
Not once did I EVER mention that the Killer should get nerfed.
Not once did I imply the power itself was an issue, and in fact go out of my way to mention that that "I was not going to say that 'the new Killer is overpowered' " since that was never the point of the post.
All I mentioned were bugs that actively make the experience worse for Survivor, that's it. PLEASE actually take the time to read my post and dont make wild assumptions based on your own preconceived notions.

It's so annoying because this will lead to him getting nerfed and it'll be BHVR's fault.
If he's this bugged, he should be killswitched so people don't get burnt out dealing with his BS. But the devs wanna make money selling him, so they'll keep him live, force ppl to keep going against his buggy ass, then be coerced into nerfing him (even tho he doesn't really NEED to be nerfed) once he's built up a Skull Merchant reputation and ppl refuse to play against him out of fatigue. 🙄

It's funny that Springtrap has bugs that almost always work in his favor, while the buggy trio of Twins, Knight and Houndmaster have bugs that disable half their power.
Just a thought.

This is what i meant with my earlier post bhvr either balances around their dumb data or they listen to 1 side constantly complaining even if its buggef through the roof like springtrap
