Kill Switch update: The issue affecting Baermar Uraz's Ugly Sweater has been fixed and the cosmetic has been reenabled in all queues with this update.

Survivor Ui for killer

Nothing crazy not complaining just wondering how come as survivor you can see how many hooks you have left but you don't get to see that as killer? I'm asking since it's very hard for killer to focus on so many things at once an not to mention survivors tend to dress an pick the same characters making it hard for the killer to tell who is who. Just wondering if we can add that for killer and if not, then why?

    It was to discourage killers from tunnelling and to give solos more information which they are in dire need of

    The argument against it is that it would encourage more tunneling, however most people tend to keep track of how many hooks each person has anyways as there is only four survivors, plus if you are going to tunnel knowing the info isn't gonna change anything, so i don't see why they shouldnt

    Same reason killers can see the aura of gens but survivors can’t

    It’s one of those questionable decisions from devs. Killer has to keep track of so many things, and yet those informations are given to survivors who basically holding m1 the whole game.

    It encourages tunnelling? If killer wants to tunnel, he will tunnel you. He can literally count and remember how many hooks that particular survivor has.

    Those who forget the hook counts are those who don’t tunnel. I don’t see why giving killer access to this information is bad.
