Is spawn logic still broken?

I've noticed a few matches where one survivor spawned apart from the other three, but I've thankfully not noticed any matches where they all spawned fully spread out.

Hopefully it's a momentary hiccup that gets fixed fairly quickly. It seemed to be working pretty well until quite recently.

Well said - you described it perfectly!

I use Lethal Pursuer a lot as well and yeah the “spawn together” thing almost never happens.

I bring the offering against it and i still spawn grouped up 🥀

The "survivors spawn together" feature never properly worked. And sometimes the killer spawns in the middle of the map, and the killer just doesn't know which direction the survivors are in. And sometimes the killer spawn on the edge of the map, but the survivors spawn along the same edge of the map, instead of being all the way across the map.

The result is that if the killer guesses wrong, and all 4 survivors are on the same generator, and the killer is low mobility, then the 1st gen might be completely repaired before the killer finds any survivors.

• I could say the exact opposite. The shroud of separation (which I've been using every game since it was introduced) simply doesn't always work... usually the separation is only a few meters more than normal, or on maps like Haddonfield, it practically never works. What I've understood about this logic is that if the map is "big enough", it actually tries to separate five players (killer must also be separated from the remaining players), but if there's no space... it simply doesn't work. Sometimes the shroud of separation creates a "partial separation," meaning the survivors appear in pairs. Guys, I've been testing and testing for months now, and I've even filed a bug report here on the forum. On the very rare occasions when I don't use the offering(example, when I use event offerts) , survivors appear to be truly attached to each other, sometimes a few meters apart but still visible. Another observation is that the survivors have learned that initially they need to separate as quickly as possible. Before the change, I saw more random behavior from the survivors, so they would attach themselves to the first generator they found within reach, without considering whether anyone else was nearby. I say this because some killers often have the impression that the survivors are "too separated" from each other, but the truth is that already at a medium MMR, the survivors have learned to separate quickly. If we consider that perks like sprint burst are meta, this explains why after just 3 seconds of play, the survivors are already very separated from each other. As an early game perk, when I play killer, I definitely prefer "corrupt", it's safer than "lethal", also because with a little experience, in 90% of cases, I always guess where the survivors have appeared

In true DBD's fashion, the "survivors spawn separately" offering also rarely ever works. Maybe by the end of 2028 they'll find a way to fix it.
