This is why survivors can't know who the killer is.

Where have you seen this? Not calling you a liar just want to read these for fun

I still haven't seen a single person ask for this, and I've asked for links.
Asking for the survivors to not be able to switch is absurd, just like I commented there, and this whole thread here is a disingenuous and pointless.
It's just like End Game Collapse. It's not enough that they can close the hatch now. It's not enough that killers can open the door and start a timer, and that they get free kills because of it. Survivors shouldn't be allowed to 99 the gates, according to a lot of killer mains.
It's not enough that killers can see who is in the lobby, and what they might bring. Survivors have to have their items locked in so killers can prepare. But by that logic, remove Plunderer's, Appraisal, Pharmacy, and chests entirely, while we're at it. Survivors might get something the poor killer didn't plan for!
Personally, when I make a last second change to my item, it's to take something off I looted out of the last game and forgot to unequip. But I guess killers want more toolboxes and flashlights and keys in the game?

Survivors the second they hear the Vacuum sound/Nurse scream

That happened to me today, I was all clear for a match without needing Lightborn, so I brought Lethal Pursuer instead, and one of those rats found a flashlight in a box. Face camped them to make sure it didn't happen again.

Here for all of you my guess were tony got this most recent rant idea from.
And especially this comment.
@Firellius and @meatisadelicacy you two even commented in this thread but either forgot or didn't read the complete thread like most people.
And meatisadelicacy, i am still waiting for an answer for my question to you in that thread 😉 (But I guess you preferred to ignore it, goes to show when someone has no real arguemtn to make)

They don't need to. A few years ago they messed up their first take at encrypting temporary game data on the client side and people managed to read out those text files (simple using editor, and yes this was at PC exclusive times) and could see the killer that is used in the lobby close to real time.
This lead to an increase of flashlights against wraith/hag, calm spirit against doc, saboteur/toolboxes against trapper and so on. Not to mention the dodge rates against unloved killer.
Some people even programmed a little software mod to make this data easier accessible. And it took the devs several tries until people weren't able anymore to crack the encryption which only goes to show to which lengths people are willing to go for an advantage.
So the devs have already seen what happens when survivor have the option to see the used killer beforehand. (Also a reason why lobby locked killer created such a big outrage in the beginning)

How do you know they dodged you, were you stream sniping then?

imagine reading the thread you post in...
but I mean... You literally went there just to strawman and gaslight people... why should I expect you to pay attention to it?

it was so funny seeing a bunch of post on steam complaining about being banned around the same time BHVR started cracking on DBD+, however theres new alternative that surfaced in its place

Is there a change coming to this?

Yeah thanks for bringing my comment into a completely different thread where you don’t even bring up the context in which that comment was brought up.
If he had an issue with what I said then he could just comment in THAT same thread (which he already did). Instead of creating a whole new thread where you bring up my name when I haven’t even participated in it.
I stand by what I said. That thread was about quick switching in a lobby.
I said what I said.
Stop trying to give context to someone’s post by bringing up other people’s comments from a different thread.

Well first:
That is exactly why I first posted the other thread itself so that your comment is NOT completely out of context.
Second:
Damn you seem quite sensitive. Your comment doesn't even show you in a bad light just that someone did mention this opinion in recent forum history even directly in relation to the op of this thread with the same topic of conversation. Way to go directly tagging a mod XD
I hope you don't patronize people for taking tbagging and flashlight clicks personal.
And third:
5,5 hours so far and it seems nothing happened with your mod tag. I just checked the forum rules and from what I can see i think my posting of your comment doesn't violate any except maybe a personal take on them from you. (meaning the FEELING of being "attacked" by me by this)
Let's see if I have a warning tomorrow and/or am jailed. Honestly quite curious.

Who even makes these ridiculous arguments after 1 hour of experience, Tony?
If anything, neither side should be able to see each other just to make it fair.
1 -
yeah okay let the killer not be prepared for 4 brand new parts, 4 flashlights, 2 keys and 2 maps. 4 blendettes
yeah that's totally fair.
also it's a horror trope for the killer to stalk its victims and prepare so it 100% makes sense for the killers to prepare.

Killer: wow everyone has flashlight, imma go back to search new lobby with non competetive ones
Killer: wow he has key, i hate it, switch lobby
Killer: wow everyone from one platform I switch
Killer: everyone with medkit? Franklin!

you're not countering the survivors power you're just countering specific items.
survivors can counter the killer's power if they knew hwo the killer was

Survivors knowing who the killer is in lobby would probably make games take forever to start. Cause then you’ll have survivors constantly dodging lobbies cause they don’t wanna go against a killer they don’t like.

What's the point of this post? 2 years playing DBD and I've never seen anybody asking to know who the killer is on the lobby.
0 -
there is threads going on about it
0 -
I have never seen a single one, and I browse this forums at least twice a day.
0 -
welp they literally posted about it the other day
0 -
How would you change keys? Also keep in mind that there is an achievement that requires all 4 survivors to escape through hatch.
0 -
welp guess it has to be changed because hatch is OP
0 -
Add an animation for opening the hatch that is like 15 to 20 seconds long. If the killer interrupts the animation the key breaks
