Gens are literally flying

hi, surv main here. coming from the future, after Day 2137. You would think devs hit rock bottom with ghoul but no, they released bubbles from powerpuff girls and at this point, May 6th of 2031 they have lost a 75% of playerbase, she ended up being the most unfun, corrupt, racist and unbalanced killer they added to the game.

If you are lucky you will get a 19hours queue as killer, and 10 hours as survivor. Me? playing skyrim from a cabbage, hopefully i can play in 2 hours.

There are three phases to every event for the past few years:

Phase 1: everyone is trying out the new stuff, messing around. This is the "honeymoon" phase where it can actually be fun.

Phase 2: killers realize that survivors are actually focused on a side objective instead of doing gens, and tunneling, camping, and slugging are catching people off guard for easier wins.

Phase 3: survivors have figured out that the event is basically just getting them farmed and it's back to effectively playing the normal game with maybe a slight BP boost. There's a delay as people slowly figure out that they're in phase 2 and need to change tactics.

Generally, it takes about 3-5 days to go through all these phases when an event launches, unless the event hasn't really changed since the last iteration and then we just stay in phase 3 from the last time.

Day 1 Holding it Down for the Underground

It is true the rumors whispered about Pig. I went above ground to see what they now call the “Wasteland”. They still let you visit but there’s no resources there anymore. However, there tucked away in a decrepit chest in a relic glass from the past there was a note scribbled on the parchment it reads:

“ We opened Pandora’s box, and what was once just a stealthing Pig now gained a new ability, they say the traps weren’t enough, she needed something more and there in the dark Pig tinkered until she emerged with a new trap, one with wings. She now has the ability for aerial attacks to zone and trap us; as well as a dive bomb. It was too strong though and resources nuked.” -end note-

Out of need for adaptation we have fled to the underground. Now only guided by the odd light here and there to make our way through the tunnels stumbling in the dark. Jungle gyms we now have to carve for ourselves for any lines of defense, even then one swipe can bring the whole thing down. We feared the death from above, but nothing could have prepared us for the horrors that awaited below, thus 2 S tier killers with kit buffs emerged from their underground palace in a surprise rework a new Xeno and Demo was reborn.

that's been a thing with the constant gen regression nerfs and the 8 kick limit having a hard limit to defending a gen makes it infinitely worse since it's an auto win for survivors if they just attack one gen but don't go down

Yups, this is why I barely still touch killer these days, absolute misery afaiac. Know that I am a 2016 veteran, so I've lived through all of the bad periods of old ;) The silly part about this is that I DONT mind the losing, at all… What absolutely grinds my gears is that I have to sit in Q for soooo long, and then the match ends in like 5mins because swf team 6 doesnt like to have chases… Literally pre-running before I get anywhere near their gen, see the scratchmarks from the gen up into the horizon. Then feel silly for drykicking that gen, because you know someone else will rotate to that gen in about 10secs… That right there is the only thing driving me away from killer right now.

That’s such a sweet and nice thought, it is sorta poetic.

It was an easy follow up, you gave me a lot to work with. I had so much fun reading op and your bit. I hope others feel encouraged to add onto it, I personally want to see how unhinged it can get.

That’s when they hit you with the cliff hanger.
