    I had SWF abuse the ######### out of it. But then I just smacked the sabatour. They could get away with it once but I overtook them quick enough since I just kept pressure on them with smackings. If they were too far away, I just went to another hook instead of walking to the hook I knew they'd sabotage.

    As a survivor, I'm also happy with it because sabotaging was basically worthless because it took so long. The killer could walk halfway across the dang map before the stupid hook clanged down.

    It's legit only an issue once in any given match

    i got a 4k in the match im describing so i won too.


    but it doesnt change the fact that the ability to ######### a hook within mere seconds is not OP as hell

    its not toxic a survivor does what the game allows him to do, its toxic that the developers are so drunk they dont look at what they release in to this game.

    an ability to block me from hooking + removing in within seconds? in a coordinated SWF?

    no thank you. thats the stupidest thing ive ever heard.

    I mean...you killed everyone. I'm not sure how toxic and bullet proof the quick sabo can really be if you still slaughtered everyone (I "only" got 3 of the 4 in the match I described. He got to the hatch as I downed him).

    I suppose we'll just have to agree to disagree here because I love the change.

    Truth be told?... They don't abuse it because hooks respawn way too fast and killers outrun survivors.

    i would like to point out, that i dont mean toxic as its toxic that a survivor uses a feature thats been implemented.

    i find it toxic of the developers to add a feature that they KNOW is going to be SWF abused to insane degreese.

    i had a group that did somewhat well but i would not categorize them as great, because barely anyone did gens and they just ran around me. a great SWF grp would have made this work and i would have been left pissed. its like a secondary DS because i cant make it to the next hook, and i have to fight my way through people already blocking, i dont have time keep on hitting people.

    couple that with the hook being taken down in what? 5 seconds? i have no time to find a new hook and i lose my downed survivor.

    Just watching that Toxic Sabo guy video from Monto makes me want to get corona virus intentionally.


    but to be fair, i have not seen it happen a lot, but when people do it, its absolutely insane how much you can destroy a killers game with one button.

    I had survivors get cocky with it.

    To me it's just another way for me to apply pressure for wanting to be sabo gods
