this game has to favor the survior
Lol just had an incident where i went to pick up a survivor who almost made it to hatch and it cancelled me out. would not let me pick him up then let him crawl and get thru hatch. lol too funny. I love this games mechanics and their logic.

Ok

Why would the devs favour one side?

Is this a survivor vs killer post? I'm not sure

the game is survivor sided.

it is a comedic title. but it literally did cancel my pick up and let the survivor crawl and get hatch. It was funny to me is all.

Well, predominantly-survivor players do make up the majority of the playerbase. I know for a fact on PS4 only 30% of players have ever gotten a 4K, which is very sad to look at. Basic business sense suggests BHVR should favour the side with the most players.

I feel like to draw this with Spirit in it

That's because there's a zillion people that got this game for free during some event or a bundle, picked it up once and never played it again.

did you change your pic

I have to be real, as obviously survivor favored as the game is to anyone looking at it objectively... It needs to be that way. That is how you convince 4 players to be your bottom and STILL get lightning fast queues.
During the anniversary, I actually had to wait 2 to 3 minutes to kill those clowns, unacceptable. Absolutely unacceptable.

It's called a bug they effect both sides.

Did you bm the survivor at the hatch and they escaped by accident?
0 -
So it doesn't allow you to pick up either? lmao

Except that such behaviour would put off the already numerically smaller side and dry it up until only one side remains, unless player from the majority side switch and realize how unpreferred that other side feels and ultimately also might stop playing that side and the game completely dies.
Killer is already the more attention demanding role with more micromanaging and attention juggling. The only advantage is not being dependent on team performance but also has no option to play with friends and/or use comms to improve gameplay.

I had a similar incident. Hatch was at the outside of killer shack and the last survivor hide around the corner of it.
I down them while crossing the hatch, they fall and crawl to it and I start the closing animation but they still managed to escape.
I don't think it was a case of latency with my hardwired connection and a long around 30.

That doesn’t make the game survivor sided.

This game has never been easier for killers

Except that both sides are required to sustain the game. If they really did only care about survivors they’d dramatically reduce the number of people willing to play killer, which would inflate survivor queues to the point of killing the game.
You can see from the game’s balance history that the devs clearly want both sides to be as happy as is reasonable and practicable.

lmao this is priceless

I mean theres still a ways to go imo. Look at maps like game and Haddon disgustingly surv sided. Chapel was well balanced and is not disgustingly survivor sided

There are more survivor players by design.
If more survivors are happy, they will buy tons of cosmetics and content.
Ergo, BHVR will make more money if they keep the majority (survivors) happy. Survivors will always have it easier than killers, even if that’s not what Survivor mains want to hear.

Well thanks, i guess. Not much to say about your comment without any form of intonation like with spoken words.
Not sure if you are sarcastic or are of the same mind.
And if it is meant sarcastically then i have to say, yes I am of the opinion that killer is in multiple points already the less desirable role to play since this fantasy of playing a big, strong and scary killer from the movies is long gone with the aging of the game. Together with my previous mentioned points there is not much left and when the devs would show open favouritism, like the post I commented asks for then i guess that would be the drop that bursts the barrel.

Someone in another topic said that basically it is surviving (tee hee) on the influx of new and returning killers from chapter to chapter which is why we will never get a project health chapter. They need new killer mains to sustain the balance. It kind of makes sense, I guess, given they didn't even bother with a survivor this time around. Not sure how true it is exactly, but I know when I got into it, my friends and I were so confused why the role with all the horror icons that is supposedly stronger and more fun has lightning fast queues. It is weird.
