Buff Solo Q so this game can be balanced properly.

Now, for the longest time in this game, everyones been complaining about the other side being OP, so... how about we finally get rid of the second biggest problem in the game - SWF, now don't get me wrong, SWF isn't bad feature, it's more about the advantages that it gives to the group that make it bad, when i play solo q as survivor and i happpen to join a lobby with a 3 man (which is very common in red ranks), i get left on the hook and die, if i play killer i get the sweaty SWF groups that i hear so many horror stories about, I get genrushed to a whole another level where the game literally last like 4 minutes at most (even if i apply a ton of pressure), so how about we add voice chat to survivors? basically it would work like in TF2 where a dude just holds a button, his name pops out down in a corner and you hear him talking, this would finally make Solo Q an actually good and fun expirience while being able to finally balance out killer and make them an actual threat to SWF, this would probably also take a ton of time since perks like ''Kindred'' wouldn't be needed anymore and they would have to be reworked to do something else. If you have any better ideas, please share them below.

Also i apologize for any grammatical mistakes, im not a native english speaker.

    The problem with voice chat is the various ways it can be abused, especially with randoms (micspam, verbal abuse, etc.). Plus, Killer already has a hard time dealing with SWF groups 80+% of the time due to the fact they have comms that the killer can not hear. Would this be the same for Solo Q and just make it infinitely more unfair for the killer?

    I believe what Killer needs is either a buff against SWF groups, for SWF itself to be nerfed, or at the very least for killers to be able to see if they're playing AGAINST a SWF group.

    The problem with nerfing SWF is that you nerf solo q in the process though, however i'd gladly see and indicator if im going against a SWF or if im going against solo survivors. The reason i came up with the whole ''buff solo q to the same standard as SWF'' is because BHVR would be able to balance survivor and killer properly, instead of balancing 2 different games. but thinking about it now, that would probably require a complete game overhaul.
