Kill Switch update: We have temporarily Kill Switched the Forgotten Ruins Map due to an issue that causes players to become stuck in place. The Map will remain out of rotation until this is resolved.

    I dont have an issue with the change itself, necessarily. More so the timing.

    This makes opportunistic tunneling much easier, but it's really putting this in with an update that was supposed to be anti-tunnel but ended up being super-tunnel. Every Killer QoL went through, none of the Survivor stuff did.

    There is one benifit to survivors. When you (the Survivor) face a killer like me, you will be glad I can see how many times I have hooked you. this is especially true if you all decide to wear the same cosmetic. my brain power isnt that broad, so I dont bother counting with too much priority. However, im not mean and nasty, im not purely in it for myself and I do believe in helping beginners where I can. so, I will go on a rampage and try to hook you all twice each, then let you go unless I need sacrifices for a quest/challenge or desperately need the extra blood points or am entertaining my stream with Mori's. but under the old system, not having any guide to tell me how many times I have hooked each survivor I would sometimes sacrifice survivors accidently without meaning to. this happened even more when the survivors all looked the same (wore the same outfit). So I wrote myself a hook counter program that displayed the count number in a transparent window that was set to "always on top" I would press the number keys 1 to 4 corresponding to each survivor once every time I hooked a survivor. I did this to make sure I didnt over hook you. However, they threw a spanner in the works when survivors could swap a hook state with the perk "Shoulder the Burden" then I could easily sacrifice you even though I didnt want to. now, that wont be a problem. now I dont need my app anymore so that's cool. Hopefully now you will get a lot more killers letting you leave after they have hooked you all twice. GL HF

    I don't mind it as it's one less thing my brain needs to keep track of

    Hopefully the Halloween event is lit because I'm not motivated to play until then.

    People seem to forget Survivors get more pallets in many maps, which is more than just QoL upgrade.

    because a lot of them are edge map filler or make the map weaker, like Asylum.
