Survivors and windows

It's really annoying on how slow survivors are when vaulting! At least make it a little faster and i also find it unfair how killers can hit through the windows once you're already almost over a window/pallet.

    I agree with the killer being able to hit through the window and over the pallet, but not much so on the window vault speed. Any faster and it may turn into a window vacuum like there used to be.

    I agree that it sucks vaulting through a window leaves you so vulnerable, but it's actually kinda realistic. If you had a sword in your hand there is no magical force preventing you from stabbing someone behind a window.

    It's already really easy to loop killers on pallets and windows - I disagree that vaulting should be faster. I think that would cause survivors to just run to windows and hop back and forth every time they're being chased.

    It is realistic having the killer hit through the window. But the weapon doesn’t even hit the survivor. I’ve been hit after I’ve vaulted a window and began to run, and I’ve done this to survivors when I’ve played killer also. Feels great when you’re the killer (obviously) but there appears to be something wrong with the hit box.
  • They changed the vaulting speed so killers had a chance to get a hit in when you jungle gym them. You gotta think about both sides.. I do find it silly if I am running and I vault through a window yet along of things are silly and odd in this game.

    The whole point for the vaulting change that happened is to reduce the impact of very strong vaults over the killer match, basically not to make them infinites by making them too practical to use.

    Use Spine Chill and Resilience if you want a faster window vault.

    You know what else is annoying? When the game is supposed to be fun as a killer and yet all the survivors do is run in circles around a piece of wood. So exciting :p

    The windows are a particular issue with the shacks and the preschool which has infinite’s.
