Female characters

Is it just me or they are way more smoother to play as?

Like just moving around feels so nice.
With David, Dwight or Ace etc it's way harder to do jukes, 360s etc.

They're all the same obviously, but females being smaller make it much more pleasant to play as.
Or is it just me?

Edit: By "they're all the same" i mean their speed, hitbox etc

    The hitbox is different for each character, but I find 360’s easiest as Dwight.

    The hitbox is not different for each character. In fact, the hitbox for all survivors is the same. Male characters just appear larger because their models are larger, and animations are more accentuated.

    Yeah, females feel a bit smoother for me as well.

    I can moonwalk easier with the females.

    I’ve been told several times they’re different and I see tons of people say Claudette has the smallest.

    Captain is right, every survivor has the same hitbox. The male characters only look bigger.

    For some reason I never have this problem playing as Dwight, but all the other male characters do feel very awkward to move with.

    My guess would be that Dwight has the least bulky model

    Female characters are way more popular than males. The hitbox is the same but it makes a difference when trying to stealth or hide with height and width of shoulders. It might have to do with the way their models run that it looks smoother. I rotate 4 of the females to play but only Tapp and Dwight for males.

    David and Adam are the only characters I feel off playing as xD It's def an optical illusion but still works. Heck, I've always played/performed better when playing as a Female character in most games.


    Once I'm done leveling up my Killers and then the key Survivor Perks I want...Nea, Dwight and Jeff will prob be my "main" Survivors I play as. Dwight only because of that dang Pizza Boi costume xD

    I preform best when I play Tapp but I don’t play him often since Claud has most of the perks and I like her cosmetics.
