They broke Nemesis again

Literally the exact same problems, lag from taking out the tentacle, lag from hitting people with it, and some more that aren't nemesis specific, like severe lag from survivors using sprint burst, lythe, and a flashbang which I witnessed freezing the game for a solid 5 seconds.

*Insert slow golf clap here*

Edit: And given the fact they plan to release a killer next month and a survivor the month after, this MIGHT just kill the game given they've never done a release schedule like this before. Cross your fingers everybody.

    It's called depreciation. It's typically what happens when labor is severely mismanaged at the corporate level.

    ..... For me, Nemesis never became NOT broken. I still can't play against him due to frame drops / freezes. Legit gotta take the 5 Everytime it's him. Unless it's multiple Nemmy's in a row then I just gotta die.

    Well I am currently on a break, but it sucks that this back cause I am on Ps4. Guess I will continue to stay on break.

    As you said, a new killer is coming soon, so hopefully it gets better. No matter who it is though no console person should be buying it before they verify the game is actually working properly.

    I started this game in December, so post launch twins. So far, both Trickster and Nemesis launches have utterly wrecked console performance, and have been utter train wrecks. Trickster release was such a ######### time. I'd like to be optimistic but it's hard.

    I’ve had a lot of lag spikes today playing killer and it wasn’t nemesis.

    I've been playing since it was free on Ps4 like 2 Novembers ago and it has constantly gotten worse (for the most part) with each update/new mechanic. They really need to go in and fix/optimize the base code of the game cause it is likely just going to continue to get worse.

    They won't, it's just that simple. They've had 5 years to make this game be playable or at least to where it doesn't kill your system, but they haven't. They've been only building off the same terrible code for the last 5 years and haven't gone in to fix it.
