I want to be brief, and if it turns out that this happens to others, I'll probably have to sit down tonight and write a whole bug log for report.

  1. Half of the flicks are getting off-centered. Half not. On ptb at least u were 100% sure it’s always a mess, now it’s inconsistently and feels even worse.
  2. On high dpi people usually use for flicks his power keeps constantly cancelled, yet u have massive slowdown. It can cancel itself during charge or during charged walking mode. I thought they added input buffering that messed up flicks to make such situations less frequent, but for what reason I keep getting it like…. This?
  3. Burning man painting addon still doesn’t work.
  4. Input buffering on style when u try to express some kinda of skill on this killer just feels braindead, especially after nerfing him to 4.2

    I can vouch for the first one, his flicks are very broken. (please fix)

    Also, can you clarify the last point?

    They added input buffering, so your power feels “more consistent”, but I’m pretty sure that’s the actual reason why flicks are misaligned and power get constantly cancelled.

    More likely this input buffering is too sensitive to dpi and fps settings people usually use for playing through flicks. Like this happens with oni, when u tried to flick like it was before his turn ration challenge.

    I called it braindead, because u can play in “normal” way and this won’t bother u. On low dpi and without flicks this issue doesn’t exist. U also can use one of his iri addon (doesn’t matter is it for snipeshots or for breaking pallets), put black strap addon, and play him in the most casual way. For me this change killed every skill expression on him…


    And the funniest thing, cause I’m maining him usually I get high mmr lobby. 5k, 7k, 2k, 100 prestige or more likely (against my 600 hours, just because I’m playing few killers only). People on this level usually knows that without flicks he is mid killer with poor map pressure and that his power easy to dodge. I still get matches with 4k despite broken flicks, but now I more inclined to tunnel or play through boring m1. I… don’t like it. That why I called him braindead now.

    Btw seems if u play with green tape addon and somehow finds golden middle in your dpi, misaligned flicks will bothering u less

    Ah I see, I haven't experienced his power cancelling yet so I'll have to keep playing. The flicks need to be fixed though, he's painfully B without them.

    Without flicks he is so easy to read and doge now while he is slower.
