Unlisted changes to Hillbilly?

I don't like to play Hillbilly anymore, and it's not because of his rework. Two times ago I tried to play him (some months ago), something just felt so off with all of his movements and attacks that it actually sent me into a bad rage. So I trash his chainsaw daily whenever I get it now.

Flash forward to yesterday, I got a mori daily for him. I figure well, it's been a long time and it's worth 60k BP. Why not?

And it felt even worse than the last time I had played Billy. Is BHVR making changes to his mechanics without telling us? Has anyone else experienced anything similar when playing him?

    Been playing him a lot and haven't noticed anything

    There was something that felt off during the last PTB, but it doesn't look like it slipped through to live

    Billy has felt awful to play since before they even gave him the overheat mechanic tbh. He's never fully recovered from that one time they completely botched his camera and animations, its only gotten marginally better since then.

    His turn rate felt terrible, even with the yellow steering add-on; and of course the hitbox of getting right up near a survivor with a chainsaw, yet not touching them. It felt really rough letting go of a chainsaw sprint too (without bumping into anything).

    I think there was a change to his turn rate at the beggining of his chainsaw sprint and to number 2, maybe you just face survivors that are good at dodging chainsaw, personally i just go a few steps back and look down and aim at their legs and in terms of the third one i have no clue,

    The saw autofills have been awful since the midchapter. I've been autofilled from as little as 75%

    As much as i dislike overheat, i dont think he feels much different in terms of movement or steering.

    Well now I have another reason to not download this game back it seems.

    Hope this isn't true however.
