I don't like the sound of the upcoming Plague changes.

Yes, you are wrong. I want Survivors to be forced to actually make a choice. Right now the choice is totally obvious; one option denies Plague any semblance of a useful power while the other makes her Huntress but easy as pie. I want the choices to be more balanced in how they affect the Plague's strength, so that Survivors cannot control the Plague's power and actually need to make a decision.

I agree, solo Survivor is annoying and difficult to rank up with. When I play Survivor, I never go in any SWF. I never bring "meta" Perks. I prefer to be altrusitic and help others rather than do gens and loop. But the fact of the matter is, that's not how the majority of Survivors play at red ranks. They play with voice comms. They run Exhaustion Perks. They run Perks that give them edges while injured. They run second chance Perks. They try to loop for as long as possible so that the Killer is distracted and can't pressure gens. They hammer gens so that the Killer has to make chases extremely short to have decent pressure. They run the meta. And the meta is both ridiculously easy and ridiculously powerful. That's why what we're doing when we play Survivor is called "non-meta." That's why we have a harder time ranking up. And that's why rank is so rarely indicative of skill, because almost everyone at high ranks runs the meta, and the current meta is so easy to master it's insane.

Firstly, I would make Vile Purge do something drastically different than just making people broken and forcing constant sick noises. I would reduce the rates at which Survivors make sick sounds and remove the green smoke that rises from their body when fully infected. I would also make sick Survivors able to heal. In exchange, I would make it so that being sick gradually increases the risk of stumbling a little bit, so that beelining towards a vault or something isn't as braindead easy and makes getting away harder. I would also make skill checks much more frequent and much more difficult, with peak difficulty and no possibility for great skill checks when fully sick. I would say reduce repair speed, but I think the solution to gen times is adding a second mandatory objective, because let's be real: doing gens is bloody boring. There are also ways to maybe inflict actual delirium and mental degradation from severe sickness on Survivors, such as the vomit VFX obstructing your vision more and making chases more cumbersome, or muddying the Plague's Terror Radius at certain distances to confuse the Survivor unless they keep an eye out for the Killer. As for Corrupt, I still want it to be strong, but not nearly as easy as right now. I'd say that increasing the amount of time you need to hold it would be a good change so you can't just hold M2 for a fraction of a second and hit a Survivor from a distance away immediately.

This is true, I will admit. But I don't find it to be nearly as problematic as you make it out to be. If it is in a suboptimal position at first, it's entirely possible to simply play around it and bide your time until it IS in a position that doesn't require you to walk one thousand miles. And if you get close to a fountain during a chase? May God have mercy on that Survivor's soul, and anyone who may be nearby.

"You fail to understand that killer's are supposed to break survivor toolkits in some way. Some of them break or cut-off loops (Trapper, Nurse, Huntress), some break their ability to sense by terror radius (Myers, Ghost Face), yet others have incredible map mobility (Hillbilly, Hag, Oni)"

The difference is that those can all be outplayed in some way. If Trapper sets up a trap, you don't fall for it and figure out where he hasn't trapped, or you simply move around it. If it's a Nurse, you learn how to outmaneuver and outplay her. If it's a Huntress, you do the same. If it's stealth Killer, you either use your eyes, or you have Spine Chill equipped and their power doesn't exist anymore. If it's a high-map pressure Killer, you pound gens and loop hard enough that even such pressure will be strained.

Doc does not delete stealth. He counters it every now and again when his blast hits someone, but outside of that, stealthing a Doc is entirely possible. Plus, if you hate Doc enough, you can just bring Calm Spirit and bam, you've hard-countered his anti-stealth.

With Plague? You just can't heal or stealth at all. She literally deletes it. It's actually physically undoable. The only way to get it back is to give her Huntress 2.0, and then she can just rip it all away again whenever she's done with that little power trip. There's no outplaying Plague's anti-heal or anti-stealth. It cannot happen.

"I prefer stealth myself, but I've learned to accept that sometimes I will be pulled outside my comfort zone by the doc and the plague, why haven't you?"

I have accepted that. The difference is I actually enjoy being outplayed and challenged to do well with my playstyle rather than just "haha your build literally doesn't exist against me".

"if encountering unbreakable is meta why is it not ran on everyone?"

It is for me. I see it at least once per game.

"because good survivors still use exhaustion perks and even healing perks or items. Would you please stop being so ignorant and cherry picky, you yourself literally said that exhaustion perks are meta and are run constantly yet now you say that good survivors dont run the meta which is total BS and you know it."

That's not what I said at ALL. I never said that good Survivors don't run the meta. I said they don't RELY on it. They don't NEED it. That won't stop them from running it in the slightest if they want to win, because, you know, it's the meta. If their meta gets messed with, sure, it may hinder them somewhat, but that doesn't screw them over like it does to Survivors who truly rely on it. There are still plenty of aspects of the Survivor's base kit that makes them entirely capable in the fields of chasing and doing gens that prevents good Survivors from needing the meta. The meta will only take these good, strong Survivors and make them even stronger. But even without the meta, if they're actually good at the game, congrats, you're in for a rough time.

"being one shot against plague who can easily find you will result in a shorter chase because getting a single hit is not that hard."

You know what's even less hard? Not getting hit in the first place.

The change coming to her is that she now starts a trial with one pool of devotion already corrupted, similar to her Apple addons. I’m saying that this highlights the problems with Plague and how choosing between being sick or giving her Corrupt Purge is such a big issue, and that instead of just giving her free Corrupt because no one wants to cleanse, they should make it so that being sick does more bad things to Survivors, but Corrupt Purge gets pulled back, so that the choice between cleansing or not cleansing isn’t so obvious and Plague has something going for her either way.
