    ^this. Myers will most likely always have a terrible basekit (among other Killers). Pig is much stronger than Myers at base so I don´t see how she´d need an overhaul (unpopular opinion).

    Regarding his addon pass, we can expect massive nerfs to both tombstones for they are the strongest addons he has. Maybe they will bring the duration addons in line regarding their cost vs their value (currently all of them are terrible except green and iridescent).

    I wonder if they just don´t care that all you get with mmr on are Blight, Nurse and Spirit. The other KIllers just don´t cut it, we always feel bad for them if they can´t do anything but NOED camp their one hook they got.

    Amanda needs urgent attention. I know we've all said it since day one -- well, many of us, anyway -- but she really is a painful case of developer neglect. Conversely, I am quite content with Myers remaining underwhelming and overly disconnected from the 'rest' of the roster... if I do recall correctly; BHVR have stated that they wish to keep Myers' base kit as it is?

    Can't base how good a killer based on Streamers who play them really well or are "Pro" at that killer. Games like this one still need to cater to the majority. If Pig struggles in most matches except a select handful at higher ranks that's a problem.

    I agree both need a tweak here and there. Nothing too major. I think Myers just needs his addons fixed. And for pig I think she needs a tweak to her ambush attack.

    She's actually been nothing but nerfed since her release so I agree with you on that one.

    I also think Pig is fine. If any changes I wouldn't mind crouching faster and boxes being hidden from survivors at the start. I would actually like that for all killers actually Pig boxes, Plague fountains, Trapper's Traps, etc be hidden so they don't know who the killer is right when they spawn.

    I was banned on his channel, because some friend of his called me stupid, ######### or smt, didn't get warning from mod or Scorp. And i called her stupid in return, just to show that they are biased. Got Permabanned.

    I was called stupid for giving my opinion on some gameplay situation (without insulting, or aggression. Totally normal conversation) and what is ironic, in the end, i was the right one lmao. But im sitting in the ban till this day.

    Nope...Bhvr have stated(in the anniversary stream) that they will update the new release killers first. Problem is they release new killers every 3 months...so when will they have time to update the old killers?.....Spoilers, they won't.

    Most likely no, and as the time passes and more killers are added the chances will just further drop.

    Pig will get an addon pass, we just dont know when. Myers will hopefully get a basekit Jewelry and then an addon pass.

    Bhvr are number crunchers. According to those stats they released last year both Mikey and Pig are performing really well in both red ranks and across all ranks. So in their minds they are doing fine and don't need any changes.

    I would definitely appreciate some addon changes for Myers, as long as they don't rework his base kit too much. I would like survivors' stalk juice to slowly replenish over time, whether base kit or through an addon, since it's annoying when I have to choose whether to kill a survivor that I haven't fully stalked yet and lose out on that juice, or basically tunnel a survivor that I have stalked because they're out of juice. In theory the limited stalk from each survivor would discourage tunneling, but frustratingly it kinda does the opposite.

    As for addons, don't change scratched mirror or dead rabbit and I'll be satisfied.

    I don't think she'll be getting a base-kit buff because sTaTiStIcS, god I hate her purple add-ons.

    She will get her well-deserved add-on pass though, eventually...

    Jw, what is an add-on pass? Just like an update to the current add-on functions on a killer or addition of new add-ons?

    Unlikely until SBMM is implemented, at which point they may have quite a rude awakening about their data.

    Every Pig I played against during the SBMM test got 3 or 4 outed. She has very little going for her mechanically against a skilled survivor. The dash is 100% countered by pre-dropping the pallet and moving to the opposite side of the tile. And you'll never run low on pallets against a Pig if teammates are split on gens because she has zero pressure when she isn't getting downs.

    Myers just needs some QoL tweaks. Removing the stalk limit would help a ton.


  • Basically they check the performance of add-ons, to see which ones are overused and underused. And change them accordingly.
