This new tile is really bad

ong.. what the hell is that, it's kinda funny, I imagine it like that scene from amazing world of gumball where granny jojo gives the kids a plastic bag, and they ask how they're supposed to even play with it

So I tried recreating it using a grid and going for rough estimation of distance between elements to try to find out how this tile is supposed to actually be used, and good lord it looks even worse from above:

This was the iteration that I saw from a video and was able to use as a reference. I know my art is terrifying in itself, but entity preserve this layout looks like they just threw random stuff together. Just in case a legend is needed:

Purple circle = hook

Red rectanges = lockers

Green rectange = vault

Blue box = generator

Yellow rectangle = pallet

Black squares/circle = tall walls and flaming barrel

It has way too much going on and yet nothing that actually gives it value for either side. Both sides of the pallet are too short with nowhere at all to detach to (unless presumably another tile is linked and provides that escape, but it didn't here) and there is zero need/reason/potential to mindgame anything on pretty much the whole tile, even though they're all tallwalls. A lot of the tall walls also have a lot of unevenness to them for either side to get stuck on regularly, including more subtle ones like a refrigerator being part of the vault area on the right.

The pallet and locker are way too close together, and just begging for the wrong action to come out if pressed at slightly the wrong time for either. The locker on the top right is visible from both angles of approach, making it almost entirely useless (except for flashlight saves! those work on both.) The flaming barrel is literally only there to eat swings through aim dressing, it creates a completely random pathing obstruction for a completely random and pointless position, the vault serves absolutely zero purpose except as a lithe activation, and the placement of the generator is better for abandoning the loop preemptively than it is for using it.

Its one of the few actually killer sided tiles in the map, and only because almost every single element on it is either problematic or downright ineffective. In order to make sure of it, you basically need to secure a pallet stun, then have smash hit/99% sprint burst/lithe to be able to get away in time if on the north side of the pallet, since the killer will never have to break it. If they have enduring you're almost guaranteed to take a hit. And since everything is so short, any 110's who slow to use their power are basically going to be just m1ing due to how short everything is and how the only animation lock areas are the ones that have obstructions all over the place.

I think it might be objectively the worst tile in the game at the moment.

While i think many of the status quo tiles like jungle gyms are indeed more strong than not, I don't think this one is a very good alternative. It actually has a lot of problems for a lot of killers, which basically makes it both extremely dependent on the surrounding tiles, as well as bully squad fodder. I understand what you mean about it as a link tile more than a main one, but it doesn't really suit that well for a variety of reasons, and it can spawn in corners and adjacent to deadzones/equally weak tiles. The only way it would really be ok as is, would be if the placement was static and the rest of the map was designed around it, like the office in lerys (or most static tiles above basements, now that i think about it.)

I made a suggestion topic for the devs about what i think is wrong with it and what considerations to take when addresing it, feel free to check it out and put your 2 cents in for the devs if you'd like. Dunno if they'll bother since they rarely comment on feedback forum posts, but im hoping they might have snuck the tile in on purpose hoping for feedback on how to break up the usual L/T into Jungle Gym into Killer Shack into Another Jungle Gym into another L/T into etc etc.

Oh ok, to be honest only autohaven map this should go on is like gas haven since its super big and can benefit from some weaker tiles, this tile on asarov's though, ouch.
