Kill Switch update: Amanda's Letter add-on for The Pig has been Kill Switched due to an issue with incorrect RBT count.

DBD needs an emergency kill switch immediately

Everything that prevented tunnelers from tunneling has been removed and everything that compensated them is still in game. Pls immediately kill switch krasue and immediately revert otr and killers seeing hook states.

    • I agree OTR needs an immediate revert. Removing its Endurance before the anti-tunneling system comes out is nonsensical.
    • Killers seeing hook states is kind of a nothing burger IMO. People seem pretty polarised about it, but I don't think it makes any meaningful difference to tunneling. It's not like counting to 2 is particularly difficult.
    • Krasue does need some revisions, although I don't think the kill switch would be appropriate here.

    If you want to stop the accidental tunneling, killers need to see hook states. The killers that are purposefully tunneling aren't using that knowledge to tunnel easier. They don't need it to do that. The killers that can't remember how many times they've hooked because they aren't sweating bullets are the ones who can use the update to the hud to leave a survivor they've downed on the ground instead of the death hook. That's how I use it.

    Krasue does need some changes. The mushroom should instantly remove the leeches after the induction, like every other killer she is based on. Maybe it should give endurance or heal like Plague's cure items. There should also be more mushrooms. Otherwise she should just be much much slower.

    The OTR change is bogus and needs to be reverted or changed with a significant buff. Mandy said in another closed thread that they are looking at doing something to OTR in Bugfix Patch 2. Whenever that is, I don't know.

    Agreeing with the above. OTR is a real problem here and needs to be reverted, but killers seeing hook states does not make it any easier to tunnel, it only makes it easier not to.

    Krasue I am more hesitant to make snap judgements on when she's been out for a day, but she does seem too good. The kill switch obviously isn't appropriate here though, unless there's an actual game-breaking bug I'm not aware of.

    How long is appropriate before they should killswitch, took them 6 months to get rid of kidnap tech from the ghoul, I would rather them disable this killer until it is fixed rather then the issue run rampant for months and she ends up being one of the killers that is just universally hated by survivors because they took to long to fix them.

    imo they should just revert the game back to before the dlc came out and have a emergency fix done in a week or something because a bunch of issues coming from this update not just to do with Krasuse.

    having the anti slugging and tunneling updates in the same ptb as a new killer has ruined her release

    It’s inappropriate because the kill switch is for bugs, not balance issues.
