Allow Killers to hook from any direction

That would stop obnoxious body blocking. Thank you.

    Sorry friend, but the body block discussion only works one way and that way is in the survivors favor.

    Memes aside, I don't know if that is even feasible from a coding perspective. I don't think it's as easy as changing a couple variables... I think they would have to write/test/create an entirely new set of animations and stuff. While I think this is a great idea to prevent survivors from memeing you into the ground, I don't think we will see it for a long long time. :'(

    Wouldn't it be as simple as just having the hook swivel for Killers too?

    I think the problematic survivor pallet to pallet to pallet gameplay would be fixed easily by just renewing the old stats on Brutal Strength (double the speed I believe it was in the beginning at launch? because 20% is useless) That would be an ULTRA easy fix without a lot of coding and balancing etc. Wouldn't it?

    It was 10/20/30% at launch and then was buffed in 1.0.5 to 20/30/40%. Part of me keeps thinking that Brutal Strength once used to be 20/40/60%, but I might be thinking of a different perk. Maybe BS will be buffed in the June update to either its launch values or its 1.0.5 values.

    i guess it wasn't as epic as i recall... but back in those days there were 4 killers and 4 survivors... It'd be cool to just BLAST through pallets! then survivors would have to actually get good at juking. I play both and I am not great by any means, but I don't grief my enemy in either role. I practice and don't try to go higher than my ability and I just have fun. Idk why people try to pretend they are better than they are and use BS ways to rank up... they still don't get respect which is what I think they want.
