Nerf question

i see medkit has been nerfed

like Instant heal has changed

Hope u guys nerf Huntress ability to use Irishard i seen many survivor keep rage quit all the time when a huntress use Irishard axe just an idea its hard to play survivor this days when ur team mate rage quit when a iri huntress appears. even clowns ability make them rage quit just an idea if u devs can look into this maybe make a nice change to make sure survivors dont rage quit all the time and ruin the game for others.

    Huntress with iri head is still loopable same with Billy and leather face, people dc because they fail at looping or rushing gens, that's not the killer fault that's the survivors.

    The idea is to punish the person that dcs to discourage doing it in the first place.

    Iri head huntress is good but as I've stated, still extremely loopable and counterable its just more difficult.

    A harder challenge, less fun, ok. the way I see it anytime theres something hard to deal with or harder to deal with survivors would rather call it unfun or unbalanced rather than just accept it's in the game. I see countless post about billy, spirit and other killers that are decent saying nerf this and that, but when killers complain, unless its game breaking nothing is done. Ds and mom were nerfed, so was unrelenting, iron grasp and stbfl. Swf's and insanely unfair gen speed is in the game but we as killers should just "deal with it" or my favorite "pressure the survivors". Everyone has something they consider op or unfun, imagine if a killer saw you use dead hard to a pallet and dcd because they dont consider dead hard fun to go against or skillful. That's your logic, if I think it's unfun I should just ruin the game for others or have it nerfed even though theres counters.

    I think one shots on killers that don't usually have one shots are very antifun. I think irihead should be changed to be infinite ammo instead of instadown, but eh to each their own

    Feel free not to respond idrc, if you feel insulted because someone made a point against you that's fine again, my point wasnt directed completely at you, I made a reference to many survivors and killers alike, you said you dont find an addon fun, I pointed out balancing for fun would kill the game, because everyone has a definition of what's "fun". I brought up the points as references to support my claim against yours. If you feel insulted mabye dont be in a "discussion forum".

    My bad I didnt specify that "your logic" was at the op.

    Also baseless argument? I provied evidence of previous issues for killer and how their overshadowed by killer nerfs, survivors were brought down from their god mode yes but still have the advantage in almost every way. I simply provied examples of changes to both sides in order to prove it. My argument was that for the game to be balanced for "fun" would be awful because different people decide what's fun to go against for them.

    As for accusations, well let's look at the amount of dcs that happen daily and not because of internet but because the player decided because they dont like something everyones fun should be ruined.

    It's all good, I'm just as much to blame,i dont realize I sound like I'm talking down or blaming someone half the time.

    Killer/survivor blah blah blah main here. I understand that both sides need some balancing. I personally think that there should be a 5% gen speed reduction for every player in a SWF group to better balance the game. I also think that Killers should have a safety net when people DC so that they can still pip.

    I also believe, however, that killers have some balancing of their own. While I don't like playing against PB Spirit, I don't think the Spirit as a whole should be nerfed, just that add on. Same with Iridescent Head. It's easy enough to say that you can loop the huntress and has a good counter but against red rank, 1k hours+ huntresses that's a lot easier said than done. On top of that, it's just not enjoyable to play against. Going up against a hex ruin irisdecent 3 hatchet huntress is worse than PB Spirit in my opinion. They should make it where you can only have 1 hatchet and gor that to supercede other addons.

    Both sides aren't perfect and we need to realize that if we want to continue enjoying this game.

    I agree with you man, as a fellow "both sides" player. The addons for Nurse, Spirit, Huntress, and Billy should and should have (in the case of Nurse) been reworked. If they screw with Spirit's base kit, it is going to massively screw up the balance of the game, leaving Freddy and Billy as top tier, both of which are very, very loopable. I hope survivors don't truly get what they're asking for when they cry for constant nerfs, because playing survivor is going to get extremely boring if they keep nerfing top tier killers without buffing the rest.
