SWF vs. Killers (Idea to make It fair)

So, when an SWF join your lobby, an icon could appear above the players head indicating that he is in an party. Passing the mouse over this icon will show the players name from his SWF friends, then, the killer can make his choice to dodge or not. Fair for both survivors and the Killer.

    Many people suggested this, but there's an issue with it.

    Back in the days before SWF, survivors used to repeatedly join and leave lobbies in order to get in a lobby with their friends. If you add an indicator that there's a SWF group in the lobby, people will just do this again in order to not get detected as a SWF.

    Nah, too much effort for survivors + there will always be killers who would love to destroy SWF teams with nurse.

    It is absurd why such a feature isn't in the game.

    You can check the profile of the survivors in the lobby and if the are all in the friends list, guess what, almost certainly SWF.

    This feature would just remove the extra step to check the profile.

    The real issue with SWFs wouldn't be fixed this way...

    A cording to the data SWF is I think 6% so yeah okay I guess

    Well apparently the Data suggests that SWF doesn't make up a huge portion.. at least that is what some killer mains think. So why do we need an indicator on top of the player since SWF isn't as big of an issue as it is portrayed?

    Besides.. it comes down to giving another reason for players to dodge lobbies.
