Can't we make Brutal Strength like how it used to be? So lv3 would be 30%.
And Play with your Food to be like how it used to be. These are perks that are way too weak.

The survivors should be scared of us killers dammit! Or else you should change the genre of the game

    they don't want scary killers. they want tbagging, high-fiving survivors laughing and looping and having a good ol' time.... thats where the money is.... balance is a myth anyway. too many factors involved.... but bet your ass, killer issues take a backseat to survivor issues....

    Lately that hasn't been the case. They've been putting a lot of effort into improving the game for killers.

    A few months from now exhaustion, DS and Self Care will all be nerfed. That'll be huge for killers.

    Hopefully they don't change their mind if they pull back on the nerfs that'll be a horrible move.

    How about they rework tier 3 brutal strength so the killer can pick up dropped pallets and launch it in the direction they are facing causing a instant down if it connects with a survivor. Hmm?

    now that would be ######### funny. I would lmao if the killers could literally throw those pallets

    Dont count on it. Before that happens they plan on another killer/surv/new perks to screw the game up even more. They have gone back on their words more than once in my lifetime here.

    I already requested this and I was told that "horror genre" doesnt mean that the survivors are actually supposed to be scared.
    I was quite buffled, but guess this game is more about fun/bullying instead of a scary aspect

    A horror game should be scary. Or else it's called false advertising since it's the genre of this game.

    There are sub genres in Horror games. Most specifically “Action Horror” and “Survival Horror”.

    “Action Horror” are games like Resident Evil and such. Where your are supposed to fight back and overpower and triumph over the bad guy.

    ”Survival Horror” are games like Dead By Daylight. Where you’re NOT supposed to fight back. You are supposed to hide, and use your environment to outwit a Killer. Problem is the way the game is set up right now, the environment allows you to “fight back” against the Killer because the game mechanics of Looping allows Survivors to not have to “outwit” Killers. Just abuse the mechanics to the fullest extent, that the Killer spends so much time fighting those mechanics they make no progress.

    Too bad the devs don't give ######### ######### about killer players and are only gonna favor us in this mid-chapter patch while we are supposed to be beasts not to be meddled with

    Why does brutal strength exist anyway? Hell, I can barely run around the map without running into hooks because there are so many and its useless to sabo them.

    The term "survival horror" was first used for the original Japanese release of Resident Evil in 1996, which was influenced by earlier games with a horror theme such as 1989's Sweet Home and 1992's Alone in the Dark.

    Dude what are you talking about? Resident evil is the king of survival horror games.

    Survival horror games do not mean that you can't fight against your enemy. It means that you need to use your limited amount of resources carefully and survive. If you use all of the ammo in RE series you won't be able to pass some levels because you couldn't manage your resources.

    Survival horror is a subgenre of video games inspired by horror fiction that focuses on survival of the character as the game tries to frighten players with either horror graphics or scary ambience. Although combat can be part of the gameplay, the player is made to feel less in control than in typical action games through limited ammunition, health, speed and vision, or through various obstructions of the player's interaction with the game mechanics. The player is also challenged to find items that unlock the path to new areas and solve puzzles to proceed in the game. Games make use of strong horror themes, like dark maze-like environments and unexpected attacks from enemies.

    This is from wikipedia btw. Resident evil become much action oriented with re6. They made the right decision with re7 and pulled their franchise back to survival horror.

    ^^ This. Since they launched the roadmap, they have broken or walked back on things they said more than they have actually pulled through and implemented it. Feel like a lot of posters on this board still have battered wife syndrome. Don't worry baby, I know that I always hurt you but this time will be different
