I’m starting to see why people don’t play killer, and why my rank 4-5 killer only fights 1-4... This hame has too many integral flaws that makes the game infuriating.

All the player has to do is sit next to something and then jiggle or flick their remote really fast. It’ll likely make the killer’s lunge hit whatever is next to them. I’ve seen lunges go half way and then stop, allowing the survivor to escape. Without lunging survivors can loop you from pallet to vault. MAKE THIS FEATURE OPTIONAL PLEASE!!

Players make obvious plays, and the aim assist gives players something to exploit and abuse. They shake around hoping that the aim assist will screw you over. It’s like playing Mario Kart with the same feature that forces you back into the road, slowing you down. Preventing you from cutting through the grass. Etc.

The aim assist just drove me insane these past few rounds!! I’m missing attacks when the player is 3 steps away! I can’t take it anymore 😡. I’m about to play survivor only, or something. When games do that I simply stop playing said feature until the exploit within them are fixed.

    It's called "aim dressing", and no, they won't make it optional or remove it because they are too proud of their garbage mechanics or features to remove them.

    On a serious note, they claim the assist is just a visual aid to make the animation look better and if you missed the shot, then it was your fault as the game registered it as a miss. Also it might be a bug with the hitboxes used to determine hit detection and assist as there are 2 separate hitboxes.

    This happens once every blue moon for me. Seems to me like you need to take a break from the game and cool off.
