Add the ability to kill-switch survivor genders
This is the second bug (that I'm aware of) which has been gender-specific.
A while back, one gender of survivors was able to begin recovering faster than the other, making perks like Flip-Flop a better pick for them. Now, male survivors have a very noticeable advantage when fast vaulting windows.
Everyone says that survivors are all identical; perk slots just with different skins, but this is obviously not the case when it comes to bugs.
Consider adding the ability to kill-switch genders to alleviate gender-specific bugs and/or exploits. Half the survivor roster will still be playable until the issue gets fixed.

You can't kill switch half of the roster of survivors because there are people who only play one and have all their progress on that one, which would not be too big if it was a certain character bugged, but you'll leave half of survivor players without their character to be able to play. It would not be smart at all, they'd lose a lot of players.

So a portion of the killer roster (M1 killers) being effectively unplayable is absolutely fine??

Or they could remove whatever is distinguishing the two genders.
Make very survivor use the exact same code and framework. Make genders just skins.

Yes I'm sure you've not seen a m1 killer winning a singular game ever since the vault thing happened. It's never that serious.

Unless you are unicorn rare level type playing The Trapper... then new vaulting is Armageddon for you.

gender distiguishing exists only because of clown memento mori. Kill switching it definitely an option. They can also consider removing it entirely, which of course upset, but what can you if you cant code it properly
