Remove Barbeque & Chili
"Barbeque & Chili" is the most common perk at upper levels of play and has been the #1 perk for killers for years now. It's frustrating to play against killers who use "Barbeque & Chili", and allows some killers to 4K without breaking a sweat. I don't care about rank (I am already rank 1 every month), I just want to enjoy the game. The stupid stuff you need to do to counter the perk (such as hiding in a locker or counting to 5) doesn't matter if everybody on your team doesn't do it, he'll just kill a teammate who doesn't play around it and then BBQ procs again.
It needs a rework, a big nerf or removed all together (a cooldown, range change, only for first hook, etc).
It's an unfair perk that completely breaks the game.
Reworking "Distortion" so that it doesn't use tokens but has a cooldown could be a good counter to it.
I doubt the devs read the forums, but I felt like I would voice my thoughts.

The aura reading is to make it more appealing not to camp

The game is different at a higher ranks, and most of you know it. It's the best perk in the game by far.
BBQ and Ruin/Pop combo are used by almost every killer in red ranks. It has literally no cooldown and snowballs games.

Oh god please no, on the contrary, give bbq and chili 6 seconds of aura reading so that the aura-reading aspect would actually means something.

BBQ and Chilli isn't even the best info Perk for the Killer. I have no idea in what dream world you're living in but I'd like to join so I can get 4k's by just using a BP Perk

Is this one of those Russian state media type things where someone is creating troll accounts to seed discord between Survivor mains and Killer mains? That way, Killer mains have threads like this to point to and say "See, Survivor mains are always asking for stupid nerfs!"
On the off chance this is a serious post: BBQ and perks like it are some of my favorite Killer perks as Killer and Survivor. Perks that reward hooking.

BBQ is ran mostly for the bloodpoint bonuses, and the aura reading encourages not camping the hook.
Also it is countered by Distortion, closing the distance to a hook, jumping into lockers, Boon: Shadowstep, crouching behind an incomplete gen, or simply running that way for 4 seconds and then cutting back.
Fairly balanced perk I'd say.

Killers are literally dropping bbq at high mmr for another slow down perk and you want this to be nerfed? lol

Funny you say this, was in a match last night where BBQ was useless as the team setup Shadowstep boons in very lucky totem spots that covered the map for them. Im not mad since they dedicated a fourth of their perks to counter one perk, oh and the phat bloodpoint gainz.

As soon as they remove Object of Obsession. That perk encourages looping too much

You realize BBQ's the most common perk because it reliably doubles bloodpoints?
The aura reading's nice, but it's not the reason people use it over other tracking perks like Nurse's, Thrilling Tremors, Surveillance, Discordance, etc. It reduces the grind.
BBQ's also insanely easy to counter. You always have warning when it's coming. Get in a locker, crouch so that the gen is between you and the killer's location, move close to the killer's terror radius, move in one direction for 4 seconds after the hook and then go in the other direction. Or just accept that the killer may come for you if you look like an attractive target. It's not hard to deal with it, and it discourages the killer from camping and proxy camping as an added bonus.

OP's name is Rank1Survivor, you expect him to use his brain to deduct that BBQ isn't over powered?

I rarely use BBQ. The info it gives is redundant, because the gens are being rushed so hard you know where the survivors are gonna be: on gens. If you think that's OP, you've got another thing coming.
