Has the nurse always been this unplayable?
So I decided today to re-pick up the nurse and I always heard people say she was buggy but man I did NOT expect this. Last time I played Nurse I never noticed just how god awful and stuttery her and her power is, I always figured it was my wifi but has it been her this entire time? I’ll blink and it’ll show me going to my blink location then zip me back to where I originally blinked albeit a couple feet in front of me. I didn’t know this wasn’t a me exclusive thing but has it always been this way?

yeah pretty much

Has it always been THIS bad? I never noticed it to much before but now it’s like I can’t even play her. I’ve lost a lot of kills or hits because when I blink it’ll say I’m there one second then zip me back but like a little bit closer if that makes sense? I’m a console nurse as well and usually I prided myself on being able to get a decent amount of skill on her but man idk if it’s the hellraiser chapter or if it’s always been this way but it REALLY needs to be fixed.

Yup, has been like that since the nerf as far as I can tell, I didn't play much nurse before the nerf so I can't say.
Sometimes there are unblinkable......rocks, trees, as well.

I never noticed it when I played on PC but man is it terribly noticeable on Xbox.

It only goes to show that they don't care about fixing really loved killers, and if you didn't noticed on pc, you should've tried playing her more.
Sometimes it is just too frustrating when you want to go to one side of the map and then there is a rock or a tree, you won't be able to blink, sometimes also the crow bug.

Yep Nurse still has a huge amount of problems. The main ones I experience are the blink bug where you're stuck in your blink charge animation with the sound going wild, and unable to actually blink until you swing (I believe), as well as certain tiles just being... too big to blink through? The hill tiles are really weird like this, I cannot blink through them even with a fully charged, increased range from add-ons blink. But that's just the tip of the iceberg, and is why I do not play her much anymore.

They don't bother to fix her bugs as that would make people want to play her which her gutting was expose to stop.
No seriously they outright refuse to even acknowledge the Nurse's bugs because at this point them not wanting her to be played is probably the reason.
I mean look how much people still complain about the Nurse when she barely works. Just imagine how much complaining would happen if they fixed her.

I wanted to start learning her on xbox with sbmm now implemented but after reading this thread I'm a little skeptical.

They're just going to move your thread to feedback. Nobody even reads that section.

I just tried doing a daily with her. I was surprised at how many things she couldn’t phase through. Poor thing. I just cannot play her well at all. She’s definitely got lice cause she is bugged out.

Maybe the real bugs were the friends we made along the way?

That was the exact reason I wanted to re-learn her as I used to be a fairly decent nurse on console (I never used add-ons because I forgot who but a YouTuber said that’s the best way to master a killer) pre-nerf but post-nerf I just didn’t even try it. I mained her on PC and got her to P2 on both however I wanted to finally re-visit her on Xbox. Truly a sad experience. If you’re up for a lot of your potential hits being bugged out of existence but still are head strong enough to ignore then go for it.

Yeah like I went into a custom with my mate just to test out blinking and it didn't seem the best at times.
I could blink okay for a first attempt trying to actually play as her(my mate didn't take it easy on me lol).
I think I wanna give her a go and if it becomes too unbearable I'll have to drop her, but I am determined to try killers that are more difficult on console. (I already main huntress).
Thank you for the reply!

The survivors hitbox blocks your blink and will stop you blinking through walls and low wall loops if you don't overshoot or blink behind the survivor.

Is that why the whole blinking to one spot then being shoved backwards happens? That makes a lot of sense if so but also confuses me since it seems to punish the nurse for being accurate

She's buggy but what you described seems like a ping issue. Never happened to me.

The nurse as forever been unplayable for me, I'm terrible with her. I'm now hoping sbmm will allow me to learn her playstyle properly.

As a devoted and long time nurse main, I assure you she has always been terribly glitchy and borderline unplayable :))

your ping to the server must be horrible. The higher your ping the worse she is. Dedicated servers 😰

Yeah sometimes I try to blink through a truck or tree and it feels like my blink is shortened from the usual 20 meters. Very annoying

I do. That's where all sluzzy stuff gets moved

Nurse is the embodiment of bugs at this point, I'm still unhappy that they only patched out the one glitch that helped her and left the rest of the bugs.

I can recall these bugs rn:
- When charging a blink, she won't raise her left hand but instead her right hand will shake while a stuttery sound plays (very old bug)
- Sometimes after blinking, pressing M1 to hit survivor won't do anything (also a very old bug)
- When missing a hit after blinking, it takes her around 1 second longer than before to enter the cooldown phase (which also means that blinks take longer to recharge) [1]
- Being hit with a pallet after blinking makes her POV jumpy
- She can't blink through some obstacles
[1] Originally when you missed a hit after blinking, she would go immediately into the cooldown phase. Now, she briefly (for like a second) raises her left hand and then she goes to the CD phase.

I know I've only played against one Nurse and she had a blink bug where she can't use her second blink.
It's actually kinda awful how she still has these bugs.
