This is probably the most miserable patch in a long time

TWD patch was full of bugs which were annoying, but at least the Survivors were cool and the content was fun. This patch, however, has a series of deliberate decisions that have wider reaching consequences that make the entire game feel awful to play right now.

Firstly, Survivor is kind of awful with the release of the new killer. She's quite overtuned, good at tunneling since infection doesn't reset on hook, lacks any kind of cooldown on her projectile that she can M1 immediately after.

On top of this, OTR being nerfed makes tunnelling more effective, in a time where we REALLY didn't need that. Questionable perk choices extend past this, with Leverage, Monitor and Abuse, Hope and Tenacity being kneecapped for seemingly no reason. OTR and Tenacity are confirmed to be "being looked at", but with no confirmation of any kind of full revert.

Even worse though, want to play any other killer that doesn't fly over windows and pallets? You're out of luck! The new "anti-deadzone" changes give the majority of maps a coin flip's chance of spawning endless safe pallets, leading to god setups that make you feel like you're in 2018 again. It's impossible to keep up as any M1 style killer at the moment.

Playing Survivor, or any Killer outside of the top tiers, just feels incredibly awful. I think I'm uninstalling for now, and will come back when some of the recent changes are reviewed.

    Everything you've said is 100% spot on.

    Completely agree. Survivor is incredibly tilting right now, and killer is conflicting, Krasue is very rewarding but i feel like my brain is turning into mush when i play her, every other killer is much harder though. It really does feel like the devs are just not listening and its quite sad.

    I will say for Pallet Density, should have been kept to maps like Haddonfield and Coldwind that needed (key word) more pallets, cause it was really, really bad in its current state.

    But Macmillian did not need a pallet increase, and its now become prolly one of the more survivor sided maps of the game, along with Autohaven

    Feels like it forces M1 killers now into Enduring Fury now to deal with the amount of pallets on some of the maps now.
