This is so ridiculous..

Actually two things..

1st) If we Killer Mains always get what we want then the pallet density update never would've happened.

2nd) We were begging for a rollback! With even many of us saying that some maps should keep the new pallets (Haddonfield and Borgo for example). But no one.. Literally NO ONE asked for a rollback with a nerf on top! - I wanna see footage of all those otherwise claims that content creators wanted fewer pallets than before the first density update!

All of this has to be a bug, right? ..

There's absolutely no way that you have a rock with a pallet next to it.. And next to the pallet ABSOLUTELY ######### I N G NOTHING!

I love to play this game - but how? I feel totally ashamed to kill Survivors currently.. But if I don't I boost their escape rates and you might actually consider everything is fine..

So better don't play at all?

    Another killer main here and I agree and disagree on few things. Borgo for example was awfull but with pallet desnity I literally had 15 pallets at 1/4 of the mao and all of them were insanely safe. Mother dvelling spawned 3x double pallet around the small building, which was beyond insanity. Could they easily revert the pallets to pre-pallet density? Yeah. But don't forget why this game sucks at balance - 4 slowdowns Ghouls, Nurses, Blights and Billies. How come I can have equal chance to win with Pig when I can just pop on Nurse and get down in 10s with lethal, ignore levels, obastecles and any defence resources? Or play Ghoul, hook someone, injure someone cross map within 5s and then get free hit on them from scamper and so on? Why they buffed the Myers so much, to be extremely good and gave Pig or Ghostface so small changes.

    im not a killer main, i used to be but thanks to queue times i’ve become a 50/50 player. This patch just makes me not want to play killer at all because it just feels bad to win in these conditions. I like challenge and I like adversity, what I don’t like is winning or losing based on rng, or bad balancing. I’m fine with losing provided it was because of my own faults and misplays. I also love winning when it means i correctly outplayed my opponents via skilled interaction and not because it was handed to me on a silver plater.

    Nerfing overpowered pallets and making them more fair to killer means you all “quit” and or is taking a break from the game. I would love to see the kill rates for every single killer on the roster after the pallet density update. Like usual everything a killer gets is blown out of proportion and gets crapped on.

    Ik, and people like you and me get downvoted when discussing it bc survivors can't handle the truth that their toys are too strong or unfair to killers and complain about killers being too unfair & "broken" bc of 1 perk, addon or 1 particular killers, when its survivors side, EVERYONE can use whatever is broken or powerful unlike killers where it's usually tied to 1 specific addon or killer

    Honestly tho some of the filler when the spawns are right with the new tiles feel good to interact with on both sides, that said a lot of the time the spawns are awful lol, I can see what they were trying to go for but I feel more intentional consistency would go a long way in map design and make it easier to balance.

    Oh we wanna talk killrates now? How about the fact that even during old palled density killer still had 60% KR? Or do stats only matter when it benefits you?

    I really hope that the devs revert the pallet situation to what it used to be before the pallet density increase. I do kind of enjoy the 50-50's as a survivor, but my internet and 30 FPS are often a detriment to me.

    Please revert this to the situation before 2 patches, before the Bone Chill event begins. Otherwise it's very likely it's gonna be hard to enjoy the event. :/

    (not to mention that due to the staff going on vacation, we would to have endure the current situation for 1-2 months. Please bear that in mind 🙏)

    That's the point of this discussion, we shouldn't have had pallets touched the way they were in the first place.

    Pallets on specific maps needed adjusting, and some like Haddonfield needed more. We didn't need an increase or a decrease of so many the way BHVR did it.

    This statistic is meaningless without weighting it to take into account that the vast majority of deaths are newbies and not people who have been playing a while.

    Yeah I agree, not a single Killer player was wanting a nerf, we were wanting a revert to an extremely Survivor sided change that made half the killer roster feel awful to play. Idk why people are blaming us for this when WE DIDN'T WANT THIS. We simply wanted a reversion of the Pallet Density update, and as OP said, with some exceptions like Haddonfield being the biggest one that NEEDED more pallets.
