ADAPT TO THE NEW META!!!
I've read a lot of discussions here since the update came out and i've encountered this joke many times where killer mains were telling survivors to adapt to the new meta.
The new meta is camping and tunneling and getting trash teammates every game. Why are you guys so delusional? The killers are literally running insane slowdown perks even with the base nerf of generators like the crazy 30% debuff speed from just a 1stack pentimento mixing it with thana.
I have 4k hours in this game and i play both sides. I used to play survivor with Spotify playing now i'm doing that when i'm playing killer. The problem rn is not that you can't press E anymore, the problem is literally that killers can use their abilities near the hook and tunnel straight of the bat. That 5 second bt doesn't do anything.
The only useful perk in the game's entire history was ds cause it actually had some impact on tunneling and now that it's turned into a ######### perk all of a sudden everyone is tunneling assuming that nobody is running ds and every game is just one survivor gone and 4 gens left.
And please don't talk about skill here! this game was always casual af. nurse and blight mains saying OUR ABILITIES NEED SKILL! It's just that it has less to zero counterplay.
I think developers of this game don't even know how to play their own killers or test anything before it goes to live servers. They just create a custom lobby and bring some useless perks and see if they are working as intended!
Playing this game for a long time only has proven that devs don't really understand their own game and it's not an insult, it's a fact. I'll be playing killer until further patches lol.

I’d have to agree. I haven’t played a whole ton since the update came out but when I have there has been a camper or tunneler every game. Literally 4 or 5 gens left and everybody is killed. And then the occasional (like maybe 2 games) where the killer didn’t down anybody until 1 gen left and ended up getting 1 kill. But I was honestly super hyped for this update and it turns out it’s even worse than I thought it could be. I truly don’t even want to play survivor at all anymore. I just played 2 games where 2 people gave up because there’s no chance of winning and just told the killer to kill them and one killed themself on hook and the killer refused to kill the other so he just DC’d. It’s honestly not fun anymore but I’m going to give it a little more to actually see.
but honestly I’ve been trying to get my brother and some friends to play this game and I am 100% not doing that anymore. They’ll hate playing it after this update. Sucks

Ok well I hate to tell you BUT
"The new meta is camping and tunneling and getting trash teammates every game. "
That's how it's been since release. Actually even worse since 1st hook mori's were a thing.
Solo Q has always been trash, although now you honestly have very solid options in both Sole Survivor and Left Behind. 1 perk as insurance against being given an unwinnable match was always the price for solo Q to be tolerable. Sole survivor was the best solo survivor buff of the patch imo. Sometimes your team just gets slaughtered and you can't do anything about it, but you can't complain if you don't bring the tools to stay alive in that situation.

Guess i gotta change my playstyle to waiting until all the 3 survivors get killed just to get the exit gate opening speed. Very useful perk indeed!

I agree with you but since the new update it's just easier to tunnel cause there's no fear or penalty. Gens just take longer mixing with slowdown perks and all you need to do is just camp, tunnel, pick the tunneled survivor cause there's no more ds and boom one survivor out 4 gens left.

Nobody says you have to wait right at the start of the game. You can simply alter your playstyle once it's clear your team isn't going to win. If you have 4k hours you should be able to tell what games are winnable or not. Load in, hear the Nurse screech, someone is down in 10 seconds, etc etc. Yeah, that's when the best perk in the game is going to be Sole Survivor or Left Behind because you are never going to win. Every other perk is basically irrelevant.
Well against the majority of killers that's the survivors fault. Most maps provide plenty of resources to loop the killer for a minute or two, which is all it takes to win really. I will agree that a few select killers need to be nerfed badly but that doesn't reflect on your average M1 killer who desperate needed these buffs

The new meta is Sea of Thieves.
