Kill Switch update: We have temporarily Kill Switched the Forgotten Ruins Map due to an issue that causes players to become stuck in place. The Map will remain out of rotation until this is resolved.

All this could have been solved with buffed DS

These changes are huge, and no one knows 100% yet what they will do. I think it's the same as usual. The rich get richer and the poor get poorer. If you give me basekit speed buff on Singularity after hooking ill wreck teams. And that's not because I'm great at him. Sadako might also have a little of that. Same with Dredge, and the S tiers. But all the b tiers are getting nuked to the ground. Ghostface? Dead (maybe even by Daylight.) Trapper? Trapped halfway across the map setting up.

This could all have been avoided with a 5 second DS. That's literally all it took. Heck even make it badekit idc. But instead we have this mess.

    Basekit DS wouldn't help me at all unless they got rid of the skill check; I've never been able to hit DS on Switch. Brand new players who can't even hit normal skill checks yet also wouldn't be helped by basekit DS.

    Yeah, whether DS is long or short, killers have always tunneled through it. Hell, I'm pretty sure getting hit by DS makes them more determined to keep on that survivor, to make eating the DS worth it.

    Imagine a world when 5 seconds DS is too strong than the new PTB, lmao

    people complain for 9 years about band aid fixes and the one time BHVR actually is going to try to fix the issue of tunneling without band aid perks people don’t want it now

    This update will be the riskiest update ever but if it works it could fix these 2 long standing problems

    We had stronger DS, people didn't want that either.

    People complaining are the ones against the band aid fixes
