Kill rate for survivors is gonna drop dramatically
Solo queue is gonna be absolutely hell we were supposed to have some changes but we never saw any. new builds like forever legion gonna make people kill themselves on hook immediately i just don’t see a reason to play this game without friends anymore unless i’m playing killer it just won’t be worth an if survivors kill rate drop too far we may see buffs to them specifically when only solo queue needs buffs

You mean rise. Not drop.

Maybe BHVR realize suiciding on hook shouldn't exist if that happens.

Survivors can kill?
show us your ways

I'm 100% in favour of survivors being able to kill each other. Couldn't walk 10 meters to unhook me while the Killer was on the other side of the map? Bam! Spent more than half the game in a locker? Bam! Tried to farm unhooks on me and never even attempted to take a protection hit? Bam!
Now that would make my games a lot more satisfying and the survivor kill rate would definitely go up.

no one is scared of legion just having to deal with buff than won’t be fun especially with solo queue

This is not really a new issue.
Survivors already suicide over anything regardless if the killer is playing an "annoying" build. Solo Queue is already nightmarish for survivor teammates who give up immediately because they went down despite the fact that multiple gens were about to pop and the survivor team was in a winning situation.
Kill rates are not going to see significant improvement from survivors suiciding on hook, because it's already an issue.

Its called sitting at a pallet that the guy the killer is chasing is going to

it will be an even bigger issue you admitted how people do it already an solo queue now it will be done even more an especially with how bad it is for solo queue this encourages people to play with swf an will just make solo queue kill rates extremely high

Kill rate = dying. Not surviving. I'm assuming you made a typo.
8 -
To be honest there is never a good incentive to play solo survivor in this game, the lack of communication with friends and having to deal with random people is boring. If I'm solo I always go as killer.

yes i did but can’t edit it

You should be able to, if you click the cog next to the original post.

How do I kill as a survivor? I want to do that.

I think you understand 1 thing: They can't buff solo survivors, without buffing swf. Any buff for soloq is gonna affect swf on a worst possible way.
"Make people kill themselves on hook", my man, ppl already doing that, and the update didn't even come up yet. Only really bad survivors doing that imo.
I don't know... This whole post to me seems like a "Crying for overpowered survivor perks being gone soon".
Relax, stop overreacting.

I bet it stays the same.

Sure they can. Adding information that SWF already has does next to nothing for a SWF group on comms. For example, when any survivor is in chase and not just the obsession, basekit Kindred without killer aura reading, etc. None of those things really have any effect on SWF, but would go a long ways for solo players.

I see so many legions and it Is always so boring the mending is so tiresome that Is gonna suck
1 -
They said they gonna add this feature in the future, no?
Like a "command wheel" or something... It will be in the future updates. They asking about it even in tests.

Ok; but how long are solo players going to wait for this, while the game goes into its seventh year? Just as soon as facecamping Bubba is addressed, I guess.
Edit: typo.
3 -
Right now, I don't think you'll have to wait long. Developers doing work rapidly, don't you agree?=)
Facecamping bubba to me is similar to afk pig. It's a pure luck for not being "this one and only hook". If it happened to you... I'm sorry, but yeah, nothing you can do right now. The only thing is... Let bubba get this one kill, but others needs to make sure - they get out.
It's actually really boring for each side tho, I'm a killer main and I have 0 idea how someone is enjoying doing so.
As much as I want to kill survivors, I want them to have fun too.

This hurt me :(. But I look at it like, why do the rest of the survivors not get to utilize your death timer to the fullest? Because it's yours? Does this boil down to a moral decision between helping your team by prolonging the pain or punishing them by suiciding?
This, I think is a good element to any horror, those difficult choices. So I'm totally down with survivors getting agency over their own deaths even if it ######### me 9 ways to Deathslinger's rose-colored bottom.
1 -
I think it boils down to agency. If they do it specifically because they enjoy inflicting that kind of tilt it's about making sure they get to play Killer the way they wanted. Few playstyles enforce total agency like Bubba's tunnel. He only cares about the one, and he's going to get the one. The rest are just icing.
0 -
To be honest, these types of bubba is exist because of not really smart survivors... If every survivor just let bubba have this 1 kill and get out, even the most persistent basement bubba mains are gonna get tired of this.
I haven't played like that, but I've seen some YT videos, and... It's just boring, it's not how you supposed to play.
Killer should never consider camping and tunneling with first hook. I want it to become only viable in end game. But how? Who knows...

what ? i could care less about survivor perks being gone nerfed my post didn’t mention survivor meta i’m simply worried about-solo queue games
0 -
And I still don't understand why are you worried.
Legion build is gonna make people killing themselves on hook?=) Legion is gonna be a some sort of... "Soloq destroyer" or something? xD
0 -
I think he was going for "escape rate for survivors" that makes the most sense to me
1 -
Yeah, if survivors can do practically same thing as something that is against rules without any repercussions, that is a problem.
0 -
People letting go on hook counts towards a killers kill rate. Reading your post, it seems like you might think it doesnt? Too many people letting go on hook will simply artificially inflate kill rates
0 -
Solo is the best survivor experience (for me). Swf just removes too many aspects of intended gameplay to be entertaining. I have played in some great solo groups which shows me its the sbmm to blame when paired with potatoes.

Since a lot of survivors will DC more, it will get even longer to get noticed.

Yes pls, play only SWFs or killer from now so i don't get u guys in my solo Q.
