SWF balancing ideas?

Maybe SWF groups cant use the sanme perks? so they had to form some kind of roles.

One Person is good at unhooking (BT, WGLF)

One Person looks out for the killer and survivors ( OoO, Bond)

and so on.

This would buff solos because they can run all meta perks and SWF wich have already comms needed to make up a strategy.

    This doesnt buff solos at all, cause for them nothing changes, they run the same perks as before, more over if they get matched with SWF theyre screwed cause mates have less helpful perks.

    Also you cannot punish people for playing together in a gradually multiplayer game.

    Don't waste your time coming up with ideas to balance SWF because it will be seen as a nerf and that's bad for business.

    There isn't really a fix. The game isn't balanced around SWF, but SWF is the main problem with balance.

    About the only thing you could do is compensate with more BP's and maybe lower the threshold to safety pip.

    SWF needs to be hit with a repair and healing speed penalty (for the time being until a different solution is created).

    If you want to play with veteran players and have extra coordination, then you should face a penalty considering the game's balance at red ranks.

    No. It's a horrible idea to punish and limit folks for playing with their friends in a multiplayer game. Solos and killers need buffs to reach an optimal SWF team's level.


    For starters, basic ######### M1 killers need either a good form of mobility or stall potential (or even weaker forms of both) integrated into their kit.


    Look at Fredbear. Low tier killer turned into a badass high tier killer. Doctor too.

    swf groups dont use bond. Ever see bond anymore?

    I use it as a true SOLO. swf use coms to tell each other where they are. The better ones tend to use OoO so they can tel the other ones where i am. Time and time again and i proved right when i do actually talk to them which is rare. But tonight two groups admitted they were using coms and OoO for that purpose. Both games ended in 0k

    And then people wonder why we just cant be arsed anymore to play killer. I am playing killer less and less now. I might just wean myself off of this game. I hope, really hope. That they go live with some nasty sabo changes. Thsi will be easy to quit at that point. Instead of few games i play now it will be zero.

    3 years of being told to git good against cheating swf who abuse and game the system. I am literally on the verge of quitting for good and just need a few more bad games. So serve them up.
