PTB Feedback

First off I want to say, DBD IS BACK!

This update has truly brought the game into a renaissance era, this has been the healthiest update for the game. The silent unhook notifications are great, I love the elusive status, and I love that the unhooked survivor can see the killer without the need of any perks. 30 second endurance is the right amount as well as the haste. Overall these Anti-Tunnel changes MUST make it to the Live game because these are truly healthy changes for solo queue survivors and do not allow room for abuse. The New Myers update is fun, no more being mori'd at 5 gens because of solo queue teammates feeding him free stalk, truly healthy. The Anti-Slug system is great, love that we can now have a basekit tenacity without requiring the use of the perk. I am quite curious about the Unhook protections being disabled at Endgame, since Babysitter has lost it's anti scratch marks and haste buff, aswell as Borrowed time not granting endurance or haste at endgame (I understand the haste but the no pools of blood and scratch marks is strange) and furthermore borrowed time allows these protections for 16 seconds but I am unsure how it works in endgame. I will say that I believe the new leader buff is either bugged or not working because I am not seeing much of a 30% increase to people healing or unhooking me ingame right now. The Six hook rule is very balanced and fair, killers going out of there way to tunnel someone will not be achieving six hooks. The gen boost speed is a nice addition for a teammate dying before six hooks, very much appreciated. The New Killer the Krasue is very overwhelming with the high mobility mode of the head, plus she can ricochet her projectile off walls even if line of sight is broken. This killer might need to be nerfed or re-tweaked because she is too oppressive in that detached head mode. No one left Behind was the only perk not affected by this update, still giving the 10% haste to the unhooked survivor. The Hope nerf is strange going from 7 down to 5. The 25% faster crawl speed with Plot Twist is a very nice addition, maybe a recovery speed bonus on top of that would be nice. Myers's Lunge is Commando Pro from MW2 on steroids, might want to be re-looked at again. Survivors can get immediately tunneled after plot twisting after being unhooked, might want to look into that. Could be used for intentional teammate sabotage, or attempting to achieve the gen boost faster. Endgame unhooks still have basekit protection (10 second haste and 10 second endurance), Meaning that Borrowed time was nerfed by 4 seconds (used to be 20 seconds) and Babysitter provides no 30% haste, scratchmark removal, or pools of blood removal. Killer endgame camping/tunnelling might be on the rise, however at 5 gens the game is smooth and balanced.
