Anti-Slug / Anti-Tunnel got reverted but dead Styptic doesn't -_-
So after Community Stream it's confirmed key things from this PTB (Anti-Slug / Anti-Tunnel) are not going live and it's a good thing for the majority of the killer roster, the only good thing coming live is anti-camp meter on HUD which is great for SoloQ and not buffing SWF in any way so I wouldn't necessarily call it a "survivors buff".
Furtive chase also being reverted
So the main things killers were complaining about got reverted but I don't understand why completely dead Styptic and Syringe staying as is from PTB… The way I saw it those strong items got nerfed to compensate for those strong systems, Syringe is still fine after change but it worse the previous version for sure, especially against S tier killers and Styptic is just dead addon and it wasn't even that strong in the first place you could outplay 5s of endurance most of the times. You can't nerf strongest and most efficient survivor stuff while killers like Blight / Nurse / Ghoul and some others staying as is. BNP's are next in line to being useless
Revert those addons (or at least styptic) and you could at least kept Elusive effect from PTB cuz I don't understand what this mid patch was for, reverting almost all the stuff for 2 patches in a row is peak incompetence lol

Well "MMR revamp" scheduled for march so let's see what they gonna bring cuz matchmaking is one of the major dbd issues.
I don't really care if they revert anti-slug or anti-tunnel it's fine as it hurts mostly M1 killers and does almost nothing to S tiers but nerfing strong / efficient survivors stuff while keeping strongest killers without any changes is just dumb.
They will add visible perks in matches which is also good stuff for SoloQ, that's what they need to focus on rn, Soloq improvement and matchmaking. It's just sad that in those 3 monts without any content we barely got anything as all the changes were mostly reverted and nothing really was "fixed" they said November release will be focused on bug fixing and core issues, where is it??

Wanting to collect data on the Anti-Haemorrhagic Syringe I understand, I don't personally like the design but if they've got their reasons for wanting it then monitoring it on live servers makes sense.
I'm genuinely taken aback they want to monitor the Styptic Agent, though. Its current design doesn't have a use case that isn't outclassed by a brown charge addon, what exactly is there to monitor?
It's not the only disappointing part of the stream for me but it is the one I struggle to understand. Everything else makes sense even if I don't personally like it.

I think the antislug was only good part, but got scrapped. They could just remove the multiplier and leave 120s to pick up so only killers that purposly slug entire game are hit by it. Styptic couldve stay as is as it's not as easy to get use of.

Not sure what data they want to collect, it's obv that nobody will use styptic's anymore and new syringe design will mostly hurt M1 killers and do nothing to killers with strong chase and high mobility.

Oh they gave them the fog vial treatment, because Survivors can't have anything nice. So…neutered syringes, styptics, anti tunneling, anti slugging update gone. What exactly are they giving to survivors? A fat nerf, that's what. Hardly a great incentive to play.

I didn't ask you, irrelevant comment and irrelevant poster, trying to derail. Comment on my comment but don't derail.
