Please Don't Nerf Ghostface
I had such high hopes for this DLC. You guys took a killer that sucked, listened to feedback, and you made him so much better. So please... Don't screw it up too quickly. You remember what happened with Freddy? This could be that yet again. Give survivors and killers some time to play him before deciding he's too good and making a knee-jerk hotfix. Constantly making decisions to nerf killers more than buff them is exactly why killers are still too weak. Ghostface could be an example of how to balance killers right if you just leave him alone and see what he needs. Please don't release this hotfix. He doesn't need it yet, and if he does, I'm sure the community will say otherwise in time. But for now it's far too early.

I just want his stalk ability to be fair.
It's clear that he's supposed to stealth-stalk you, not so aggressively out in the open, kinda like Myers can.
For those who don't know - Ghostface's expose timer doesn't get reset if he breaks line of sight with the survivor he's stalking, he can then start stalking him again and continue his stalking progresss from where he left previously.
Survivor's reveal timer gets reset on breaking LOS, but ghostface's exposure timer doesn't, and that's unfair, and clearly not how he was intended to work.
Right now a players playing as ghostface get a guaranteed exposure on a survivor they're tunneling because they just break LOS before a survivor has enough time to reveal them, then back to chasing said survivor with little exposure timer left to do.

He needs a little nerf, very OP.
5 match 5 merciless killer.

he needs some buffs but since ppl complain when a killer comes out live devs responde like "lets do this bois lets nerf him" while the 80% of the community loved the change dont really get it but soon killer will leave the game and play other game and 1 of those will be me if they do more nerfs on him

Are you rank 1?

This means nothing mate. Getting kills doesn't mean he is OP at all, it just means you killed everyone. I can do the same thing as Freddy at rank 15, doesn't make him OP.

If he is stalking you out in the open, then you should be able too pull him out, people at rank 10 are doing it. His nerfs are un-necessary and completely unwarented since he came out LESS THEN A DAY AGO and he is already getting nerfed. There is no time for feedback or testing too see how he holds. Right now playing him he is fine and balanced and survivors always pull me out when I'm in the open or when behind walls. He's strong but doesn't need nerfs.

i think theyre talking about mid-chase stalking, thats the problem aside from the hide stalk hide stalk strat which is bs

Sure more than 95% of the survivors base game are not lvl 1. And the killer power is the same for them

...Uh no that is intentional, especially since in many cases, Ghostface can be broken out of stealth through wall.

Eeeh not really, that’s kind of one of the things that makes ghostface so fun. If he was nerfed to get rid of this, he would fall apart.

Yeah he's really weak and gets ######### by SWF pretty easily, or maybe i'm unlucky idk, i keep facing genrushing SWF at my rank and i can barely get 2 kills today.
