Why this only happens to killers?
I barely don't know/remember any update, with exception this last one, that desmotivate survivors players, I only remember killer and killers perks nerfs, also when nerfing a killer or his perk they completely change the perk, but when it is survivor sometimes it seems more a buff than a nerf, some don't even have difference from ago and after, also when devs "BUFF" killers, sometimes they nerf more than fix or really gives him a buff. To complete let's talk about the new perks. Survivors receive good perks. Killers receive ######### perks. Not only for the 3.7.0 patch but even for the deathslinger that have no good perks

They want us to play survivor because the lack of survivor players in the game.

I don't think that's true. Just look at queue times. The whole matchmaking thing was to make times quicker because of a lack of killers. It pretty much ignores rank in favor of speed. If anything I'd say there are more survivors, therefore more reason to focus on them.

You just have a short memory, or haven't been around long to begin with.
Simple.

Survivors do get plenty of nerfs and this is coming from a killer main.
SC, infinites, insta flashlights, patch 1.9.2, insta medkits, BNPs, old MoM.
Although it does feel like their perks get buffs when they rework them. DS is still the most powerful perk in the game. Even when they reworked it they shadow nerfed enduring. Ruin is garbage now unless your a speedy killer. Nurse was destroyed with her rework. Not destroyed as in she can't 4k anymore. I mean destroyed as in no one wants to play as her anymore because of the bugs.

There is no lack of Killers. The Queue Times for Survivors went up immediatly after they changed how SWF-Matchmaking worked.
Also, at least in my Region, it really depends on what time of the day I am playing. Morning till Afternoon-->I have to wait 5+ minutes for Killer Lobbies (gets better over the day) and have instant Survivor Queues. Only in the evening I have to wait 2-4 minutes for Survivor and have instant Killer queues.

Are you kidding? Ever since Ruin got nerfed and even months before it survivor perks, items, addons, pallet spawns, and even maps have been nerfed repeatedly. Its been a continuous stream of survivor nerfs, the paltry few nerfs killers have gotten throughout it all pale in comparison to the sheer quantity of survivor nerfs
I mean come on now

I love playing survivor as their super hero perks is vast, powerful and has lots of synergy. In a swf you can even multiply them/share perks like spine chill and become even more powerful.
Playing killer you try and find some synergy but there isn't anything powerful. I remember playing a killer with generator defence perks that all worked together corrupt, ruin, pop.
Then pop was nerfed with a weak surge perk and now try kicking with weak ruin, also wasn't there a perk from cowboy that also did something with generators preventing being popped?
Toolboxes nerfed and buffed
Some maps reworked to try and remove infinite loops and a map with breakable walls was added...
No point in buying killer for perks in next dlc

Depends on region and platform. And we actually have no way of knowing anyway. Just saying I don't think that's true,not that I know for sure. A lot of people sure don't seem to like playing killer much,so I just assumed. Queue's were pretty even when I was on PC. On PS4 killer is near instant no matter the time of day or rank,and survivor takes forever no matter the time of day or rank,with low rank being slightly faster. Regardless I don't think that's the reason. That they don't want people to play killer because there's less survivors. I probably shouldn't have stated it as a fact. Was more a hypothesis from things I've seen around the forums and such.

Survivors do get lots of nerfs. It's more about most of them being not significant enough to really change much in the grand scheme of things.

If you think this is true, you clearly haven't been paying attention to the last year and a half of patches.

I get nanosecond killer queues, so I dunno. Doesn't seem like there's a lot of them.

The nerfs to survivors have been rather minor, killers dont usually recieve minor nerfs, its completely change or downgrade the ability or dont touch it. Survivors tend to recieve more "tweaking" nerfs jn some spots while stronger in others. Ex... Sabo buff for toolbox repair nerf, new arrangements allowing fir stronger basic loops for the cost of godloops so on and so forth
