New PTB update looks awesome
Youuu, who let the devs cook? These changes are goated.
They buffed Dredge finaly and they buffed every single thing I wished, thats awesome! He might finaly be decent killer.
Doc and Nemesis buffs are great too. Nothing to complain here and its all great.
Perk buffs to some niche perks are welcomed as well.
Changes to Midwich to make it less killer sides sounds good too.
This is finaly patch that looks like S tier great stuff with no "but look they changed this to worse here...". Love it.
Keep cooking guys like this. This patch is truely "we listen" feeling, nice.

Yeah I'm looking forward to seeing these changes played out in PTB, particularly the Midwich update

For some reason I'm more excited about Midwich's bathroom breakable walls being removed than anything else, even as a Dredge enjoyer.

You forget to mention only survivors perks getting buffed including annoying blast mine

The survivor perk buffs won't change anything. The shorter charge time of the trap perks won't mean much since you still have to wait for the trap to expire or trigger before you can charge it again.
Diversion having a lower activation requirement doesn't make it stronger since a killer will quickly figure out diversion is being used.
Deception has a similiar issue to Diversion where it doesn't do much once the killer figures out you have it.
Dance With Me cooldown now lines up with Quick and Quiet and is a perk you ultimately only run in combination of other vaulting perks.
The only notable perk buff is Flashbang, because it means an extra flashbang could be in play.

dredge holding remnant movement speed buff sounds awful so except for that, hook state duration change and flashbang buff patch looks like a W. oh and i was desperately waiting for nemmy add on pass so i could start prestiging him but alas, he got his changes and possibly won't get another in forever.

I'm not huge on the blast mine buff either. It feels awful to lose control of your character and I'd rather not emphasize that.
On the other side the stun gives you some time to drink your beer so that's nice

If I get to throw more pebbles in a trial, that's always going to be a massive win in my book! Plus, the buff might help you charge it up at least once Vs a stealth killer.
The best change for me has been the improvements to scratch marks. Those have been tricky to see on certain maps for a long time. Got nothing bad to say about any of these changes. Good stuff.

Ok

I'm glad someone else agrees with me! Feels nice to be affirmed.

can I just say, I'm so disappointed with myself for that answer, because I said "Fall" instead of "Autumn" - I'm losing my Britishness since I've moved out to Montreal :(

To be fair there was a lot of questions on reddit and some of the questions needed a more complicated and extended answers 😄

I generally like the changes, but
I am concerned about the increased Scratch Mark visibility
in this update. I don't want my screen to look like a Christmas tree when playing as a killer.
Hopefully, this will be made an option that can be disabled.
