Myers Update does not address T3Bombing well enough

You mean that is how you play the Killer most efficiently, but I am more interested in creating a fair experience.
Other killers gives you a fair warning for the Insta-down attacks, Ghostface does not. Perhaps he should, though this isn't such a big problem for him due to his reveal mechanics.

I already mentioned this in the main post, he would have to be balanced in other ways.

The T3 Bombing strategy with Michael Myers feels incredibly unfair to Survivors because it can strip them of any meaningful chance to respond or strategize. When Myers holds his Tier 3 activation until the perfect moment, Survivors are often left with no opportunity to see it coming, much less to escape or counter it. This approach can make the game feel less like a tense back-and-forth and more like a trap that's been sprung without any warning, all other Killers have way more warning.

For Survivors, T3 Bombing removes much of their gameplay agency. They rely on cues—like the killer's terror radius and visual indicators—to understand when danger is approaching, but Myers’ ability to build up Evil Within silently especially with perks that give undetectable and unleash it suddenly creates an environment where these cues are misleading or entirely absent. Without any warning, Survivors can go from repairing a generator or helping a teammate to being downed instantly. This lack of counterplay can feel punishing, as players lose any chance to make tactical decisions, kite, or use perks effectively except a few.

The result is often frustration. Survivors may feel that they’re simply sitting ducks, with no way to anticipate the deadly surge in power that Myers can unleash. This dynamic can feel not only unfair but also disempowering, as it robs them of the opportunity to outplay the killer. Instead of skill and strategy, it feels like Survivors are simply at the mercy of Myers’ timing, leading to an experience that can feel unbalanced and unsatisfying.

Remember that Dead by Daylight thrives on the tension and the thrill of the chase, both for Killers and Survivors. Sure, T3 Bombing is an effective strategy and undeniably powerful. But consider this: the best matches are the ones where both sides feel like they had a real chance to play skillfully. Survivors aren't necessarily looking for an easy game—they want an intense, back-and-forth experience where they feel like they had the opportunity to fight back, make clever plays, and maybe even surprise the Killer.

This is why I hope this reaches bHVR because I know they really care about creating a better cohesive, fair and more memorable matches, where both sides can leave the game feeling satisfied, knowing they were part of a dynamic, skill-based gameplay encounter.

Yup, that would make it loads more fair. I would bet you 100 dollars had Myers come up this year, this would be part of his basekit.

This has nothing to be with my mental faculties. You forgot to read the last part of my first post like so many others here.

1. Yes I understand these changes would put Myers in a difficult place.
2. He would have to be balanced in other ways.

Once Myers has a good fair basekit he can be improved.

I don't see why it should be the case for going into T2, T2Bombing isnt a thing and is not critiqued here.

If everyone thought that way maybe, but I'm pretty sure its rare to find a Survivor who find it engaging, skillful or earned.
I think people just accept Myers cause hes always been that way, and thats a mistake cause his gameplay is awful in ways that would get modern Killers changed and I see no reason to keep Myers on a special pedestal,

so I want bHVR to check it thoroughly if T3Bombing is a loved strategy than a sizeable majority find good for the game.

I also despise these arguments of "nerf now and buff later" because it's always really asking "gut the killer now and maybe fix them in three years".

Killer balance is a process and it takes time and stats being gathered. its just a part of game design we deal with.

I didnt say balance the game around what any survivor thinks is fair, but there is a middleground and I think that middleground would be more healthy for Myers longterm if the would have measures against such cheap strategies and was buffed in other ways.

I was wrong, I thought it gave a stalk meter. Yeah I also find that unfair even tho Ghostface has other counters and Myers dont.
You can call it ridiculous, but a smear isnt an argument.

Well that would be arguing a fallacy, not knowing every detailed mechanic of Killer A in the game has no bearing on the severity of the issuewith Killer B. Unless you disagree ofc. Ghostface has a built in counter mechanic thats why it rarely comes up. I never said anything about urgency, that is up to bHVR to determine.

They dont have identical mechanics. I was not using Ghostface as an example because they have similar mechanics, It was in response to someone mentioning Ghostface and I responded I wrongly remembering how his power does not warn people. that was wrong, but I could have used other killers as examples, there are plenty that give fair warning.

Nobody has talked about stalk prevention, this isn't what the 99ing problem is about. and no you cant prevent it.
You are free to think its a skill issues, but its not something you can effectively prevent, I know I play Myers often.

This topic also isn't about balance, you like many others talk about the balance implications but I already said he must be buffed in other way, neither is this topic about if survivors have issues dealing with the strategy, its about as I have mentioned before if its an enjoyable experience, one survivors feel is fair. This is what I want bHVR to check if 99ing is.

In online video games, a sense of fairness is crucial for a positive player experience. When players feel the game is fair, they’re more likely to stay engaged, develop their skills, and enjoy competing or cooperating with others. Fairness in games involves many aspects, from balanced matchmaking and reliable network performance to clear, consistent rules.

Fairness in online games is essential for player enjoyment and engagement. When games feel balanced and skill-based, players are more likely to stay motivated, invest time, and feel a sense of control over their progress. If a game feels unfair—due to issues like unbalanced matchmaking, lag, or pay-to-win features—players quickly become frustrated and lose trust in the experience.

A fair game environment also fosters positive communities where players respect each other and feel valued. Ultimately, fair play is key to building a loyal player base, as it creates an experience where players feel rewarded for their efforts and excited to keep coming back.

But this is an assymetrical game. It's not designed to be fair.

What do you even mean? this game is absolutely designed to be fair. fairness is absolutely something bHVR want in this game.
I am not even sure which kind of understanding of game design you are coming from, I think this message will go down better with bHVR who understand a lot less people would play this game when it has cheap and easy instadowns.

Also this thread is about Meyers who dont have a reveal mechanic.

It doesnt feel great or anything but that doesnt make it unfair.

But the line goes somewhere, You can make the same argument for multiple Killer strategies that has been removed in the past.

you can generallypredict when myers has t3 99d or not based on how hes playing pretty accurately; and whether you know or not, the game plan of not getting hit is the same. If its been a while since he popped t3 then hes probably waiting for the right moment so you must play accordingly.

I don't think this qualify as a proper information and counter play and I want bHVR to revisit and re-evaluate that determination.
Because I am 100% certain, this gameplay loop would not hold up to bHVR's modern design standards for killers, It may be a box they dont want to open right now and that many players are afraid to open because they fear their little fav Killer getting slightly disadvantages. I however think Myers future would be way better if they fixed those internal problems.

I have seen no arguments against this. I have no fear of bHVR's design decisions.
