Windows
A friend of mine is upset about the fact that killers can hit over the windows a little bit and they are not allowed to do that so I want to ask around what your opinion is about it?

... what do you mean "they are not allowed to do that"? I'm not sure how a Survivor would be hitting over a window.
As for the Killer, there's two factors at play: one, their hitbox is a cone in front of them, this cone can reach over low obstacles. Two, latency: on the Killer's screen, they're just in reach.

Why would they be upset about it?

It's a perfectly normal gameplay mechanic, sure it sucks to get hit while vaulting but it's far from unfair.

Your friend is wrong. Killers are very much allowed to hit you through a window.
You can get hit through windows and over other low non-vaultable obstacles even without vaulting. This is common to see when playing Deathslinger, where you will get speared through a window, reeled to it, then hit over the window.
Some of the short loops in the game such as on Garden of Joy have short fences that you can also hit over, which it seems very few survivors know about because they'll run loops by fences super tight and give me a free hit very regularly.
Windows aren't walls.

Oh, Garden of Joy got the old Haddonfield fences? I haven't been paying attention to it much, too busy cursing the ambient noise. xD

Your "friend" should stop complaining about things that are perfectly fine in the game....Windows are not supposed to a 100% safety net against Killers, lol. I swear if a new trend of people complaining about windows starts up.....

In a few spots, yeah. It's super funny how many people think they're safe on the other side of a waist-high fence.

I think he is talking about fast vaults. there you get hit way too often even though you are already running on the other side because the killer has a too high ping.

I mean killers have arms so standing next to an open window and expecting not to get stabbed through it from the giant monster on the other side is kinda silly.
A lil bit of realism aint a bad thing.

There was someone on here a while back complaining that they never felt safe as survivor.
I don't think they get what this game is about.

Tell your friend to play both sides before complaining about one.
Hitting over a window is one of the most fair things in this game, as killers like Bubba can prevent an unhook via facecamping, and survivors can literally force the killer to hit them to help their friends.

Window-hits are super inconsistent. Sometimes I'm a step away from the window after clearing a fast vault and I still take the hit, sometimes I'm smacking someone who -just- started their vault animation and it plinks off. They're latency bottlenecks.

I love landing some of the most BS bits I’ve ever seen through windows using blights m2. 😂
Sometimes I’ll admit to myself “ain’t no way that should have hit.. that’s unfortunate for them..”
