The Amanda's Letter add-on for The Pig has been Kill Switched due to an issue with incorrect RBT count.

Alright, Survivors, You Win
Killers cannot tunnel now.
Killers cannot camp.
But also.. Killers hooking are a detriment, so killers cannot hook.
Basement specifically is incredibly oppressive.
I watched a streamer literally watch two people in basement unhook themselves, immediately get healed because perk abuse, and run away and lose the streamer immediately with the new unhook protections.
I watched as someone who, as a survivor, constantly body blocked and ran into the streamer's face and get punished for it, then whine in the post game chat about "typical tunneling" and want to see more punishment for killers since it's unrewarding to get tunneled, like blocking gens for killer if they tunnel.
So, congratulations, you win, you got what you asked for, you are now one less killer main away from your perfect world of facing AI killers. I will not participate in this oroboros. Time to boycott these aggressive, tone deaf changes by either playing survivor (poorly), or just quitting entirely until something changes.
Hope this made your life so much better.

Im along side you man. There is just no point in playing Killer when ur punished for doing literally anything that involves being the killer.
Ive haven't played sense the TWD Chapter and I was thinking of coming back but ive changed my mind.
I say we Killer mains go take are money elsewhere. Where we are allowed to play the game how we want and what we want.
Honestly ive been wanting my money back for all the killers, all the Cosmetics and all the Rifts I bought.
I say dont give them anymore money and let them ruin it because there's just no point anymore.

As predicted, no matter if the changes actually hurt tunneling/camping, the mere idea that they could would be enough to set people off.
I have good news for you, barring the weird interaction with Wicked which will not make it off the PTB, you can still camp and tunnel just fine. Turns out, proxy camping is still good, and making a Killer back up an extra couple meters doesn't really do anything.
Likewise, all those protections are nice, if the Killer has no eyes or isn't tunneling. The best counter to the changes is to simply hit off of hook and ignore it. Why wouldn't you? There's no downside to doing it, nor is there an upside to not tunneling.

Just watched some streamer tunnel people out at 5 gens on the ptb. Don't worry, the crutches are still intact.

You realize that the PTB exists specifically for people to test new changes. This is so the devs can gather feedback and work out what, if anything, goes through to live. So yes, you will see people streaming and testing the limits of new perks etc. It's not any reason to get upset, it's literally what theyre supposed to be doing.

I'm a killer main, but if this goes fully through, I may swap to survivor.

If it wasn't such a struggle to get even a single kill as any killer that doesn't have some mobility quirk.. the game was already absurdly overbearing, now it's literally going to be 30 seconds of someone body blocking or baiting until gens go flying.
We need something like exposed to survivors within 5 meters of you if they're in that 5 meters for over 10 seconds, or much stronger hindered effects, something-8 -
This is also the second round of this change they very obviously want to force down peoples throats. If we don't get an "anti bully" update that's a bunch of killer buffs like tokens building up until you flat out resist flash stuns, or strong hindered effects, or ways to put exposed on people who body block, then it's just going to continue to be more and more piled on garbage against the killer, and I don't play the "top tier" killers, don't want to, i want to be able to enjoy the game and I am just not because of the struggle.

You would think endurance was some sort of Mario super star. Just. Hit. Them. Poof - no more endurance. If they continue to body block then congratulations, you can put them right back on hook because there are no penalties to tunneling. If they run off then also congratulations, they're in deep wound and no longer your problem. Feel free to continue after whoever you were after in the first place.

There isnt anything stopping you from just hitting them lol.
That's why this update is so #########. It encourages tunneling and doesn't do anything to stop it.

You act like during all this time, 3 gens aren't being completed while I'm locked chasing the same guy who has others body block for them, i slow down hitting the person blocking… like, the game flow turns into "congratulations, you've hooked someone twice, and now the exit gates are open and the other 3 rush down the hook and body block so you don't even get a single kill!"

It's a time sink no matter what, it's a slow down no matter what, people literally do not factor how much time adds up, how fast gens go, everything. It's the over all gameplay, everything tied into one, stop looking at single situations and look at the whole.

How are they doing three gens if multiple survivors are involved in the chase?

Hey, thank you for that last line. Although there is "bloodlust" and BP incentives, both of these are not good incentives mid game.
Over half the killers that need the bloodlust lose it for using their power
The others ether get okay milage or dont need it

That is why I am a fan of the first iteration. All this version does is piss people off on either side of the issue.
Yes, the first iteration was too harsh. However, we could've adjusted it, we could've adjusted the incentives as well.
I suspect they'll just shift the BL over to Haste and call it a day, having solved absolutely nothing.

Even hard-core killer mains I've seen streaming said the previous iteration was better. Even if it was "cookie cutter promotion"
Id they dropped the demerit from 6 to 4 or 5 it would have been better!

I also watched a well known streamer dominate a match with a perkless Springtrap on the PTB. So yeah…..
