Grab is stupid

As killer you can never get a grab even tho when the animation comes out

As survivor you stop pressing m1 and you are not in interacting animations but still get grab.

This is very fair and balanced

    This. A lot of players I go against are not english-speaking players.

    Grab IS stupid. It feels bad from both sides.

    Again, this. I only seem to get window grabs like 80% of the time, nearly never get gen grabs.

    If they could make it like it was a little while ago where if the grab is cancelled it causes a hit that'd be great. Now I'm just stuck there with my arm out for a few seconds while the Survivor gets a head start to the nearest loop at full health.

    They can't do anything about vpn users other than a ping filter.

    They refuse to do a ping filter for some unknown reason.

    Grab? Oh you mean when killer pats me on the back while I run away uninjured

    This is the worst part about the broken grabs. It wouldn't be so bad if the grab got canceled and the survivor took a hit, instead, but nope.

    It's not even like the killer presses a special button to go for the grab. It's the M1! It's the same button as a normal hit! The game itself makes the decision of what to do and then says, "Nah, screw you." ?!?!?!?!?!

    I hate grabs on both sides. They just never work when I'm killer. But my favourite rage inducing grab moment was as survivor. I get the unhook, unhooked guy actually gets to run away, AND I STILL GOT GRABBED.

    Honestly would just remove all just like hatch grabs.

    I get grabs all the time, but then again I play Spooky Myers and time it so that they don't have time to interrupt me. I have a pretty good internet connection too. I like the grab, both as a Killer and a Survivor as it keeps things from being a methodical ritual at the unhook and generator stage.

    Dedicated. Whoever has a higher ping wins.

    The only time I get a grab is after Survivors give up and refuse to run anymore. It's just so easy to avoid.

    I feel like this is something that needs to be addressed, grabs more often than not don't work.
