Alien is annoyingly Overpowered.
I am absolutely sick of getting completely destroyed every match as a solo q survivor. The tail has little to no audio cue. The tail has barely any punishment for missing, you get hit from literally every single tile no matter what you do. Even when you fake a vault or pallet you get hit, like what the hell? The turrets don't take alien out of his power like they should even when placed in a good spot not in a little nook or cranny. He's ALWAYS in his power so everyone just gets decimated before 1-2 gens get complete. This killer is absolutely miserable to play against. Thank god Starfield is releasing today that's all I have to say.

You people said the same before after sadako rework.. it's pretty easy to counterplay.

Xenomorph is a good killer, fun to play as and against. The Tail is not overpowered, you can dodge it pretty easily.

I have to disagree.
I am a newb and I picked up how to play vs. new Sadako fine.
I've not felt this oppressed since I went up against a strong Nurse... and at least in that case I could say well at least Nurse is hard to learn. Yes it is a skill issue, I'm not good, but I've never had such continuous trouble like this in this game.
I'm very reluctant to call things OP, as I don't consider myself skilled enough to make that call, and I absolutely love Alien, and I lean more killer side, so I want this killer to be strong and good... but this Killer is unbelievably oppressive. I have never been tunnelled so hard and had so little options available to me as I have vs. this killer.
You can't do anything against them if they tunnel you, and they tunnel all the time, because its totally free for them to do so. I even had a game vs. An RPD Knight just now, and it was so damned relieved... I've not seen anything in this game as frustrating and annoying as this killer is... and I've seen 4k's at 4 gens in about 95% of my games.
You can't set up turrets because you have to go to the tunnels to do it... the most dangerous spot you can be.
If you go to the tunnels, the Xeno can see your footsteps even if you walk or crouch, so you have to pray they aren't coming for you, because if they are, they know you're there, and you're against their tail with no counter play.
If you do get the turret, you can't set it up next to the tunnel cause it gets disabled when the Xeno comes out. You have to walk incredibly slowly away to find somewhere that MIGHT be useful.
The turret doesn't give them the footsteps anymore... but it beeps when the Xeno is nearby, and if taht isnt enough, they have killer instinct... so they still know you're there, and ofc you still have to take time to set the turret up... if you are even in a location you are allowed to set it up.... Again, if the Xeno comes for you, you're now against their tail with no counter play.
You're gonna get hit now unless the Xeno is a total putz. It's really easy, and if you say otherwise, you're lying. This ability is a teally easy Nemesis Tentacle, even on console I can pull this off no problem.
From this point on, you cannot use windows, you cannot use pallets. The moment you touch one, you're getting tail stabbed, because Xeno will have the tail permanently charged and ready with no penalty ready for the moment they are in range. Even if you pre-throw and have a cars worth of distance between you and Xeno, you're still getting hit.
You cannot greed pallets like Nemmy, because Xeno doesn't slow down when it pulls up its tail, so you gain literally nothing by trying to bait it, they just run through and slash you down anyway.
Look I'm a killer at heart, and even I have to say this Killer is BS. Maybe high level survivors are challenged by it and are having a great time, since the game is normally survivor sided at High MMR.
But at low MMR this is the most boring, annoying, tedious experience I've ever had in this game. Today was the first time I legit raged at this game, and it took 4 games in a row where I didn't even get to touch a gen in order to do it. I repeat DIDN'T EVEN TOUCH A GEN.
Do not nerf this character into the floor, I want Xeno to be good, but this current version is blatantly disgusting... to the point I couldn't help but write this tirade.
The tilt was unbelievable.

True they all wait in tunnel near hook and camp/tunnel it's basically a free insidious for facecamping... most games against alien I lose 1 player at 4-5 gens it's really gross, tunneling is totally overkill/overtuned and not needed against solo teams but of course everyone still do it, I'm playing killer for now people are making this game miserable

I completely agree. If I get demolished in a game, I can understand that its just not my day/the killer is more experienced than I am. When it comes to the alien though…there’s literally no point. No matter how you try to counter the killers attacks it rarely ever works. For almost all the games, the whole time is dead before we can reach 3rd gen. If it doesn't get fixed than im probably going to make the full switch to TCM.
