This patch was a major buff for Survivor
I don't think people realize how major of a buff this patch was to Survivor. Fast vaults almost never get dedicated and its pretty common to hit a vault by the skin of your teeth now.
Yes some of the unfair map sizes and god loops got reworked to help Killer, but reliably hitting vaults was a major help to Survivor. This mid-chapter was honestly a blessing for both sides and made the game more fun period.

They never said it wasn't a killer buff as well, a patch can be both at once

It's a mix. First of all, I wouldn't call fixing an issue as a buff. However, dedi hits are different now, but they're still a thing, visually different. I've seen many instances were the killer completes the missed hit animation, including whiffing sound, and then the hit registers. I saw it through windows and pallets. Hatchets also are as broken as ever, if not more.
On the other hand, gens also spawn so close together that they are often in walking distance. I don't think many killers have realized yet. I expect hostage builds to become popular, because almost every spawn has at least an easy 3 gen available, if not a 4 gen.

But its not both. Not at all.

"Fast vaults almost never get dedicated" - A killer should never get a hit just because of the servers.

Yeah, faults definitely feel much better now. When I play killer I realised i'm finding myself swinging wildly at windows less and less knowing that most of the hits that would have hit before won't hit anymore.
I can see a pretty big improvement for both sides from the latest patch. None of the things that got fixed were buffs or nerfs to either side - they were simply fixes of stuff that was busted..

Being able to vault without getting Dedicated Server'd is a pretty damn big buff imo

So your telling us that survivors should get hit because of lag but not lack of skill?

You mean, it is a problem that Hits which should not have connected in the first place do not hit anymore? A shocker.
I guess when they fix Billy, Killers get a major buff.

Omg. Killer mains are so delusional that every nerf to survs is actually, somehow...a buff. I cant anymore. Never mind the fact that solo survs still have to work around a totally broken matchmaking/ranking system. Never mind anytime you bring friends to actually have a chance against sweaty s tiers the killer brings pink add ons and moris.
But killers think moris and insta down add ons are totally fair! Lol cant take any of you seriously anymore. The entitlement of killer mains who use the crying mob of the noob killers who want the game balanced around their r20 leatherfaces to constantly nerf survs is just too painful to read. You guys have proven you'll NEVER be happy. Not even when you've got several s tiers to destroy the vast majority of survs you go up against.... imagine complaining about not getting as many bs shots at windows like you used to. But dont worry, you can still hit through most pallets!

I personally like that they improved vaults and pallets on dedicated servers. Makes the game more consistent.

Uhhh. Where did the OP complain? They said that this patch “made the game more fun” for both sides so I’m pretty sure they were praising this change, not complaining about it.

Its a bug fix not a buff

The idea that the game functioning properly for survivors is a BUFF, is sad. :| And killers still have hit priority. So...

interesting how killer bug fixes are considered buffs, but survivor bug fixes arent :/

If it's a bug it's not a buff, the game just wasn't working as intended. Controller players are better able to keep up with keyboard players now (I finally hit red ranks, yay) because they upped controller sensitivity, but practically speaking it should have always been that way. So that's a fix, not a buff.
I don't see any survivor buffs here. I've had so many 3 gen games now, as the others mentioned.

Is this satire?

Every patch is a buff survivor, because they break more mechanics and introduce more bugs. Which are left alone because they don't hinder survivors.
