Pre-match communication must be viable
Right now people complain about NOED and other stuff.
"Do bones" isn't a good excuse because mostly survivors waste too much time looking for totems on some maps. Memorising totem placements helps but there are simply too many spots and you still waste too much time.
The issue is within the players themselves. They refuse to communicate beforehand and decide "who will get rid of totems with perks/a map so the others could save room for other perks". Same goes for offering, like, come on, we can't even make some cool mist on maps.
Devs, why do you still hide perks from other players? It's not helping anyone. You just create a bigger gap between solo and SWF players. Do you afraid the people will avoid players with specific perks? Well, add BP bonus for teams where people try to do adepts. Otherwise, it's not my fault that I don't want to play with people whose builds are something like Solidarity, Technician, Streetwise and Urban Evasion. Players who run such builds are new and they most certainly shouldn't be in the same lobby with me. Oh, maybe a person is godlike but wants to have fun? Let us see their level, prestige, devotion! All in all, if you yourself can't make a good matchmaking system, let players do your job. It won't hurt anyone, good players will go to other good players, and new players just stay and get other new players.
If someone got a chest build, it would be dissapointing to see two or even three players running it. We have a pre-game chat, it should help, it should do something, it isn't just a place to write memes.
To make the game better for solo survivors let them get a good chunk of information about their teammates and make it easier for them to communicate. The game will become more pleasurable for survivors. Unprepared solo teams get stomped by most killers and it's bad for both sides!

In fairness when I play survivor I usually run Borrowed Time, Decisive Strike, Kindred, and Detectives Hunch. Unless i'm after more stuff then I swap out Kindred and DH for Plunderers and Ace in the hole. Getting a pretty good collection of pink keys on kate now :)

But it would still be better to encourage players to communicate. You can't deny that cosidering the gap between solo and SWF.

There is a huge gap between solo and SWF. With that said I usually do better as solo than with my SWF cause we kinda suck lol. I usually range around rank 4-5 on survivor but some of my friends are new so we die a lot. I wish they would close the gap between solo and SWF and buff killers to compensate so I could possibly get past rank 10 killer. It's rough out there.

So the thread about teabagging got over 1.100 views and this thread got nothing? This community is a miracle

Because nobody likes other people telling them how they should play. Just because you think that a person should be dedicated to finding totems, doesn't mean others agree, I certainly don't. Do them as you come across them. It silly to have one person running around trying to do them all.
And nobody wants other people telling them what perks they should be running. Showing perks to the team will just lead to people criticizing and berating players who aren't running the perks that they think that person should be running. It would just lead to more toxicity.

If you see totem, cool, do bones. But there are totems that are well hidden and the person with the perk/map may help with cleansing it to avoid NOED.
If you don't like someone's perks just leave a lobby and find another one where people run decent perks. Simple.

You would think survivor with their grand total of 12 perk slot would consider using a single one to counter NoED + any hex the killer have, It almost like you could sacrifice one perk slot to counter up to 4 of the killer perk slot (Depending on how much Hex the killer use). And even in the case the killer has no hex, it free point.

The game is casual mode right now thats why people dont communicate in pre game chat. You already have communication for solos. They just dont care about the outcome of the game since for them its just a game.
