So the Billy rework is the worst rework we will ever see, not only that, but none of the major Billy bugs were fixed with this update so all of the bugs stayed AND he got nerfed on top of that, cool, no need to address any of the issues, let's nerf the killer instead, thanks a lot.

Not a single person in the world asked for the new auras but here they are. It's so easy to see the new auras, I like the design, especially as a killer on Ormond, that's definitely a change everybody needed. Fantastic idea, great execution, really enjoying this new change.

And lastly, the game optimization and the new hit "improvement" system. Now the game is stuttering for half of the community and the hits are not registering half of the time. Amazing patch.

Wow, what a great update. This is literally the worst patch I've seen so far, zero improvements, only negative changes and **** loads of bugs. Well done, it takes a lot of nerve to make an update this bad. It looks like the dev team just does whatever they want at this point with zero responsibility for their actions.

    The Billy “rework” was a nerf. Nothing but a nerf but it had to be done for balance.

    I guess what im saying is when you take a character that has stayed mostly the same for years and only offer a straight up nerf of course its going to be seen in a negative light. There was nothing they could have done with this that would make certain people positive about it. For Billy players there was nothing to look forward to because he wasnt getting anything better.

    So I guess what im saying is all complaints about Billy should be taken with a pinch of salt. Theres no way you can nerf a killer and expect positive feedback about said nerf.

    If you like the new update, then you aren't gonna be taken seriously either. Defending bad decisions and bad updates just makes you a fanboy.

    Since they changed the numbers you can pretty much ignore the overheat mechanic on billy lol, you have to be really bad at him if it keeps overheating. And his addons needed to be changed so. But I agree the new auras suck

    I hate the new auras. Can't see them through objects like walls. It's not good.
