Moonwalking killers
There are plenty of perks/add-ons that can be used to conceal terror radius/red stain. So should killers also be able to conceal their red stain by moonwalking? This effectively defeats the purpose of having a red stain.
I propose that killer movement speed when strafing in any direction other than forward be reduced. Survivors' ability to mindgame a loop has been seriously impacted over the last couple years especially with the killer's increased bloodlust speed, and now with DH being obsolete. I think the killer's ability to mindgame a loop so effectively with this tech of their own that has remain unchanged since DbD first released should be addressed.

My understanding is you lost a mindgame against a killer and instead of improving your own game, you want the devs to remove skill expression from the killer.

I saw many times Killers try to moon walk and survivors just walk pass behind their back and run to another title. While Killers still mind game themselves in current title. Thats the most funny thing ever.

At this point the community wants everything removed from the game

Agreed, we should remove red stains completely.

I mean we all lose mindgames from time to time. My point is red stain is in the game to serve a purpose and moonwalking is a player-created strategy unintended by the devs that directly negates it.

Yes I agree that is very satisfying when it happens

And?
It's been in the game from the start, if it really were that bothersome they would have removed it.
Your proposed changes don't even stop people from violating the developers' immaculate vision with player-created strategy (what even is this term? Quite literally zero game doesn't have player-created strategies where the developers thought out every scenario and application.)

Unintended based on what? Killers moonwalking to mindgame their red stain has been going on for years. The devs have never said that it's unintended nor have they made any changes to the red stain to help prevent this.

360ing killers was never intended, should that also be removed? They are just merely skill issues now.

Agreed. I’ve been thinking this for a couple years now.

Yeah I noticed that the other day, this midchapter has made everyone go crazy it seems.

I can't believe the amount of serious response this thread got!!!
I mean how isn't that nobody just called bait?
There is no way this is a serious suggestion xD

Nah, Mindgames are the fun part of chases. It is equally satisfying when you mindgame someone as Killer and get a hit/down compared to countering a mindgame and gaining distance on the Killer.
And this idea is equally bad compared to the idea to remove the Red Stain from Killers. Both would make chases more boring.

Red stain mindgames are one of the best skill expressions in the game.
2 -
You know looping is an “unintended player created strategy” too right?
3 -
This is wild. 😂😂😂

I remember another thread years back asking the red stain be tied to the movement of the killer somehow, also eliminating the skillful play.
Hope this post gains as much traction as that one did.

Me too, none.
