New update = Bad Killers
Yeah, this update is a little iffy. I'm willing to give it a chance but from what I'm seeing, it needs some MAJOR fixest and the clown needs to go back to normal; he was perfectly fine before this update. I love how the devs ignore us when we complain about ACTUAL problems that they created in the first flipping place. Like, if they listened to the community a bit; they'd notice the problem they created.
Let's address the new HUD. I like it, it's unique. However, what I dont like about it is the new strat it gives killers. It literally shows them who's who and let's them know to tunnel/slug that last survivor they just had on a hook. It's disgusting.
WIth that mention, I just played 6 matches 2 of which all 4 survivors escape. 2 against the universally and notorious hag which slug, camped ( also terror radius camped) and just over all made the 2 matches unfun AF. 3, Against the clown who i'm still against his new mechanic, ( I like his terror radius music doe.) And 1 against the trapper. Each of them SWEATED MAD HARD TO TUNNEL, SLUG AND CAMP SURVIVORS, but the hag did it more. The trapper even carried noed and iron grasp so he was deffo a basement guy seeing as how I just gave up with the Dwight in the basement. The amount of sweaty incompetent killers is unreal, can you just turn back on MMR and revert update? Thanks. Like go back into your goddamned hole, if you were only going to surface for this update you might as well not have shown up at all.
Second issue, the hitboxes: There's enough space to fit a WHOLE SURVIVOR in front of the killer before I get hit and somehow I get hit? What? Now the game is TRULY killer sided, like it was before this update but now it's solid proof and the killers can no longer deny or have a say in that one. It's ridiculous. Fix. Now. It's benefiting the sweats harder then fortnite sweats and I dont even play FN.
THIRD! The new map remakes! It's good, I like them. Espeically Gideon, it works but it's too much in killer favor now. Almost all the maps seem to be in killer favor now. It's only a matter of time until the sweaty Freddy's notice and come out of their hole too; I will literally leave if Freddy doesn't get a rework or nerf soon. ( I highly despise Freddy due to his current power and standing. This HUD rework and everything is still in HIS FAVOR. )
Opinions? Thoughts? You know, the usual.
Sidenote; just got out of the match and Gideon is actually in survivor favors; nvm that map.

They did nerf undying but not DS and OoO. Of course you will encounter sweaty killers.

Umm, why do mains of one side always make this community divided? Last update killers got bugged to hell. To the point some were unplayable. Clearly the graphic change on the survivors has screwed up their hitboxes. Since they use spaghetti code there will always be bugs when an update is released.

Are you trolling? Do you really think clown was fine? He is not fine even with the updates.
HUD is not a new thing. The old HUD shows your name anyway. If the killer wants to tunnel you, you’ll get tunnelled regardless the HUD.
About the hit validation, it will be fixed definitely. It’s just another nasty bug that BhVR manages to make it into live game.
As for the maps, The Game is getting even more god pallets. Not to mention all breakable walls that wastes killer’s time. So it’s definitely not favoring killers.
Also, devs just nerfed the best killer meta undying. Im not sure how this favours killers.

You are 6 weeks to early. This was the killer nerf patch. Survivors get nerfed with the next chapter patch.
Until then it's going to be rough for killers. So you can expect a lot of sweaty killers.

Mimimi KiLleR are so Nerfed!!
Jeezus Stop it ok. If it's realy so hard to Play just play something else.

Hah, I wish I was but im very dead serious. Not sure what the whole undying meta nerf is about, I ran into several killers after this was posted and they still their kills with the freaking hexes still up. I'm confused?
0 -
Basically Undying now only protects your hex totem once. For the first hex totem that's cleansed, it'll be Undying, and that's all.
If the killer kills someone with their hex still up, that means your team is not doing a good job cleansing totems or mess up pretty bad in game in general.

Many killers are. Hence the long survivor queue times. Now sit.

I see no need to sweat AT ALL. Ya know? But when survivors wanna sweat, it's an issue; but this time you guys started it. Smh

Aaaaand, I stopped reading at "he was perfectly fine before this update".

K, whatever floats your boat. I ran into several clowns before this update and they were playing better and more competently than the ones I'm seeing now. :shrug:

Sure.
As you said "whatever float your boat".

AOC, is that you?

People who played him back then were actual Clown mains and now people are trying out a killer who just recently got "reworked", its not rocket science.

Wait they went back on the ds change just to trick killers into coming back and being hopeful? Lol that's skating on super thin ice. I reckon my survivor queue will still be too long to be worth installing this game on my Sony again for a few months . Man they have the ballsiest tards sometimes. Also about the thread title... I am inclined to assume the one that gets caught too easy and gets camped is the incompetent one, no offensive intended but no concern if it does either since that isnt gonna help anybody hide better to blame their mistakes on the better players. OP needs to read Sirlin's Playing to Win and Git Gud.

lost me at.. Gideon being killer sided LOL. Thank god I decided to come back and see your edit.

They should have nerfed pig if we're being honest here.
3 -
A-ha take on me
2 -
We've been relegated back to nerfed pop/bbq with almost nothing to compensate, we HAVE to play sweaty to win.
And don't try to tell me Ruin Undying was "unhealthy" and "uncounterable" when DS Unbreakable has been a thing for years.
1 -
How the hell do you think Gideon's is 'killer sided?' Nearly every pallet is safe, with a clear view on the killer on most loops. Most killers have to power through them to get any breathing room. Additionally, the upper floor is almost completely opened up. You can see the killer coming from half the map away.

The survivor matches I had so far went really bad for the killers.
0 -
For the record, people keep saying Gideon is survivor sided. I made a side note saying "I see that now." I used to think otherwise but Gideon has so many survivor sides things. That was an Ignorant statement on my part, I was typing my current thoughts on situation we're all in.

I've made mention on this on another discussion but i'll say it here for you to remember.
Winning =/= Sweating or try harding
Winning =/= always getting 4 hooks
Winning =/= Pipping & or getting a 4K
Winning =/= Playing competitively against people who dont.
These sentences can be used against survivors as well but in this circumstance, its directed at killers.

Kindly look at the last part of my opening post. Sorry about that.

The DS change is slated for the main chapter patch not the current mid chapter patch that went live today.

literally the most backwards trash I've heard.
If pipping/3-4k is not considered winning then what is? do you just let people ######### all over you and then think "yeah, I won that"?
0 -
Dude Ds has so many counterplay. Ruin undying diden't had counterplay. And everyone know that.
0 -
So you played 3 games out of which 2 were against territorial killers who tend to lean on a camping side more than usual, thus you made a generalization that somehow the new UI hook counter makes all killers tunnel and camp? Nah man.
Hitboxes are screwed, hit validation is no longer there.
Map reworks look cool.

Nurse get a Nerf? When and what?

Oh bugger off, if you feel it's busted then don't play.
Don't play and then throw a fit and blame the players. That's some entitled crap right there.
1 -
Actually, the OoO rework is not slated. At all. It's a concept proposal in early stages. No release announced.
2 -
I stand corrected thank you.
1 -
oh god it's you
I can't tell if you actually believe the ######### you say or if you're just a master baiter.
Good god I couldn't have phrased that any worse.

No problem.

Yes me again and yes I believe what I say.

ah thanks for the heads up, I guess that's why I saw a feel people still mentioning the queues being bad, I guess I'll stick tot he nioh 2 remaster until that patch since I can't stand waiting longer than 4 or 5 minutes for match. Is there a double bp or some sort of bloodpoint event coming soon? The last one even when it wasn't full double I got matches fast enough to play again for a few days so I'd come back for one of those too.
