The Amanda's Letter add-on for The Pig has been Kill Switched due to an issue with incorrect RBT count.

Planned perk-changes are fine but they do NOT alleviate immediate issues
Do you really expect us to keep putting up with Dead Hard and Circle of Healing every single match until we finally see some changes down the road, like in 6 months at earliest? For all I care you could nerf all of the meta perks, I don't use them anyway.
However I'm extremely sick and tired of queueing up as a killer just to have any of my decisions and plays undone by the single press of a button. You literally cannot prevent them from pressing E to gain distance, there is no counterplay to this. There simply isn't enough incentive/reason to play any of the several m1 killers in this game right now as long as these issues persist.
Sadako still remains very weak and what do you do? You create a killer who immediately makes her obsolete with his own teleport system which doesn't seem to be hindered by a 100 second cooldown. She's probably the worst licensed killer in the game right now and I cannot comprehend how she still has no changes on the PTB.
These are things you NEED to do immediately:
1) Disable Dead Hard, just do it. The perk is the most toxic thing in DbD right now, it singlehandely alters the balance of the entire game by giving survivors the equivalent of a third health state.
2) Give killers more bloodpoints, introduce an inherent bp multiplier (+100%) to give people actually a reason to queue up for this godforsaken role.
3) Hotfix or disable Circle of Healing, it still gives +50% healing speed. Where is the announced 25% nerf?

I know what you're saying, but things are a house of cards right now - you can't just yank stuff willy nilly.
Killers already get a hefty BP bonus.
As for the rest...I doubt whether it'll be six months. But as welcome as some of these changes sound, it's also not something you want to rush - unless you want Boil Over 3.0.

The least they can do is disable the problematic perks, they're flatout toxic and create immense frustration. Killers don't get enough bloodpoints, infact I only make as much as any of the survivors on average during my trials. I don't see how this could compensate me appropriately for the psychological trauma I have to endure during these matches.
I don't see how immediate changes could end up in a situation like with Boil Over - I'm asking for nerfs, not for buffs.

Okay, let me clarify.
Right now, a huge amount of the game balance depends on DH at higher MMRs. There aren't many other perks that really offer a defense against Nurse, for instance. You can't yank DH without nerfing Nurse and Blight.
CoH - wouldn't mind seeing it go away, but meh.
BP wise - no, I disagree completely. I play about equal parts survivor/killer (probably leaning a bit more towards survivor at present, as it takes me longer to get to Iri 1) and, at best, I'm earning maybe 65% of the BP that I do on killer, potentially less - there are some survivor games where you earn basically nothing due to the fact that you are downed first and then camped to death.

Hi can I get an uhh source for that Coh claim?

This has to be some Mandela effect business but I'm convinced they've talked about nerfing the perk again. It's objectively still busted.

No I'm almost certain that the nerf from 65/70/75 to 40/45/50 was the most recently mentioned one, which they brought forward from a future patch due to high demand

No keep dead hard but reduce the distance it gives you slightly. You cant disable a perk and have top 3 (Nurse, Blight, Spirit) running amuck!
People barely survive these killers "with" dead hard (mainly Nurse) so removing perks is not a solution.

i think CoH is fine now. Healing speed is relatively slow, slower than going to the nearest survivor and let you heal. It's also not played that much anymore.
DH - yea i hate it too but keep in mind that survivors will use any other exhaustion perk then. Have you played against 4 good survivors with Sprintburst yet? Even just starting chases will be hell. Some killers like Wraith won't struggle much anymore but others like the 110% ones will have a hard time with the holding W meta.
I personally find solo Q to be much more frustrating than killer. I barely get bullied to the point i feel helpless, at worst i get genrushed by a split-up-squad with 4x DS and 4x DH. Survivor on the other side, half of my matches i either get tunneled or camped or my team just messes up so hard that i just want to quit this game...

People who claim DH is toxic is the same kind of people that claim tunneling is toxic.
Is playing the game toxic? Survivors and killers agree that it is!

I've been playing League of Legends from 2013 to 2018 when I decided to switch to DbD as my maingame and I can say with great certainty that this game has the most toxic community of any videogame out there.

I somehow doubt your definition of toxic amounts to much more than frustrating since according to you DH is the most toxic thing in game <3

Is spirit still in the top 3?
0 -
No he's 100% right! He's talking about a mentality and behavior and in those regards yes the DBD community "is" the most toxic community!
Easily!

Are you implying that League of Legends is a more toxic game to play? I can assure you, none of the asinity I encountered in LoL can hold a candle to the extreme bullying from the survivor community in this game.

Nop im still talking about how DH is toxic. You are the one moving the goalpost and talking bullcrap : ) Lets just agree that you got nothing and move on lol

Ah I see, you're a troll then. Well, I wish I could say it's been nice talking to you but I won't respond to any of your nonsense anymore.

Literally 0 points from start to finish about why you would think DH is toxic, it was a most enjoyable nonsense. Hope to see more nonsense from you soon <3
