Pallets broken after recent 2x8 update. Insane amounts of pallets added to all maps

You really don't play both sides, unless you only play Nurse and survivor in comms. Even Blight struggles against this many pallets around strong loops if the survivors are at least decent. But even then, for the others 40 killers on the game there will be problems and maps will be almost unplayable. It would be like if, due to a bug, survivors couldn't repeat perks in a lobby, like they do in comp for top tier SWFs.
Blight and Nurse are not even 6% of the total pick rate. There is no reason to destroy the game to balance maps around them.
Hope they fix this pallet bug soon.

i've barely read a worse take here with so many strange arguments
- bloodlust shouldn't be an option and if you need bloodlust for hits, you will lose at anything other than the lowest mmr
- free hits is a survivor problem (if we talk about missplays)
- these CC are amongst the best killers around and i doubt they do that at high mmr on trapper or something like that
- a lot of the pallets barely take skill and can't be played around, it's just a "hold w and press space" simulator on many maps
- i agree about nerfing top tiers (better than buffing low tiers, this will lead to power creep) and then balancing the game
- balancing around top tiers will lead to VERY boring matches for both sides, but if you don't mind playing against blight, nurse, ghoul 95% of your matches, well… instead of making the game unplayable for lower tiers we should balance around the mid tier for now, until the killers are properly balanced

Sorry that my post sounded harsh but either way your proposal is insane. Some killers can't be brought to Blight level without being absurdly annoying or just outright broken. Imagine looping a Doctor that become 4.2 while he is charging his shock? Or a Knight who drops 4.8 guards? Infinite Hatchet Huntress? Twins from PTB 2021?? Weaker killers brought to Blight level would be hell, as it would take a lot of time for the devs - or we could PTB Twins every patch.
Also, if we were really to balance on top level, the maps would have even less pallets than they have now.
You can have as many hours as you want but your statement don't feel like a statement that can come from someone who plays both sides equally. When pallet density was at it worst, i was only facing Blights, Nurses and Ghouls non-stop. Most of the casual and relative experienced killers was missing, and survivors queue was taking longer than normal.
Again, it wasn't meant to sound as a personal attack but you sounded too far out of touch for someone who claims you play both sides…
PS: Your account says you've joined on November 2025 - so you don't have even a year on the forums…

Blight is having trouble with pallets? That's just absurdly funny. And I partially agree with azaxydbd. Ideally, to make everyone more or less happy, we need to divide all killers into tiers and balance all maps accordingly, or even at least by whether a character has movement or not. I don't understand why they had to touch the pallets if the developers don't understand it. Before they started doing this, the pallets were in perfect condition, although there were dead zones, but I didn't care that they existed.
Now I'm unhappy with the pallets, both as a survivor and as a killer.

"Even Blight struggles against this MANY pallets around STRONG LOOPS if the survivors are at least DECENT". If you get survivors who know how to optimize their pathing and loops to make most out every pallet, even Blight won't have an easy time due to how absurdly busted these connected pallets are. Now imagine for the other 40 killers…
Probably its a bug and i hope they fix it soon. We had enough "pallet drama" last year.

What's the bug? Everything's fine with the pallets now :) I quote my message: "Guys, it feels like Scott is playing on a separate client. I just tested all the maps he mentioned in the video five times and didn't find any of them with more than 20 pallets, or very close spawn pallets. The exception is shelter woods; I've been playing since 2019 and I don't remember a building appearing near the tree, but the pallet density on the map was fine." Come and check it out if you don't believe me.

Did you not watch the jund video? It's all there and I'm seeing it too. On several maps.
Is this imaginary?
Seeing the devs handwave this away has me thisclose to just uninstalling.

I must be playing on that "jund client" as I'm seeing the excess pallets and jungle gym spawn in several games. Today.

I honestly I do not see any diffrence in the pallet spawns in this video compared to last update except for the map that's in the crotus pren realm
First match on mothers dwelling pallet spawns seem the same as before update in the video
Second match does have more pallets.
Third Map Ormand the pallet spawns are exactly the same as before the update
Foruth Map Midwich. Might seem like is has more pallets but dev confirmed in thread they fixed issues where it was not spawning enough.
Fifth map dead dog nothing has changed about the pallet spawns.
Title says 100 pallets but watching the video the crotus pren maps are the only ones that look like they have more pallets compared to before update.10 -
Please be mindful of naming and shaming. We understand some creators are controversial but commentary still needs to remain civil and respectful.

nah its finally fair

The pallet Spawns are effed up. Behaviour needs to acknowledge/fix this.
Jund isn't being "controversial" here. He's simply pointing out facts. Which behaviour seems to be hand waving away.

Considering that there are almost no complaints about that topic and there is also almost no evidence about it AND it has been 10 days since then, it might be possible that there is nothing at all.
Said creator did a lot of (quite low effort) videos about Pallet Density before, I would not be surprised if he experienced it exactly once and then immediatly did another video about it.
If it would really be a widespread issue, you would see way more about it online. But aside from that one video, there is not really anything.
