in Feedback and Suggestions

So I read this forum page up and down.( I am trying to be a better person here and be nice.) one of the top comments I read about this game and the thousands of suggestions and feedback from Youtube, Twitch, Discord groups and popular streamer forums all over the internet...

Is this game's issues of hitboxes. I would like to MAKE the suggestion and consideration of perhaps MORE than 2 hits to down a survivor. ( Your suggestion, post, comment, feedback, are welcome please!!!)


-The long and boring reasons to talk about -

Tons of "False reports" that go up. The thing is, I dont think either side is wrong. What is going on here is an issue that is United States and World Network infrastructure. I personally have network training through the Cisco Academy and I studied under people that were former defense contractors, and telcom engineers. I went into the ag business and left that headache (customer service reps, I understand your pain!) ...

All things aside the discussion that I had over Coffee with my former trainer and online games is this.

The WORLD NEEDS GAMING. It really has pushed networks further and gaming hardware to the max. I mean nobody needs a 4.4GHZ 6 core processor Overclocked with 16GB of RAM just to open up a Microsoft Excel Document.

So what we are all having to wait is UNTIL networks are UPGRADED enough that latency can be SUPPORTED to make for "fair gaming". Area wise, a roughly-estimated 75% of the United States as a whole, does NOT have Adequate network lines. The majority of our lines were installed by the U.S. DOD for military communications. Companies such as AT&T and Sprint bought up the old stuff and re-sell their portions from those lines over to OTHER companies. Even looking into my own state and all the telcome companies the sell a service of "internet" are all buying it from ONE big company before it reaches that next "hop". So online games are going to be DIFFICULT to have fair hit registration.

Especially in a game where there is ZERO forgiveness (like this one). Maybe the dynamics will change. IDK. This is more of a discussion I guess and if you would like to all go at it. Please, have at it.

Stay safe!

    If you need more hits to down a survivor, you need to also slow down gen progress, addons needs overhaul, maybe even some perks and so on. If it takes 3 or 4 hits to down someone put game still has killers with 1-shot, most players will be playing 1-shot killers. That takes away variety from the game. Hit boxes are pretty good what I've read but the hitreg is the issue. Devs have said there will be fixes coming that should fix the issue.

    o hell no more than 2 hits to down and stacking second chance perks. If you want that you better slow gens down by a lot and add more gens to do and get rid of all second chance perks.

    it is quite something to discuss this! IDK with the way games are online and outdated networks. It really should be on the table for discussion.
