The Switch player base is being treated as an afterthought
In the past couple of weeks I feel like the devs haven't given a thought to the Switch players and kept them in the dark.
- We are still missing perks and characters from two chapters, Leatherface and Nightmare on Elm Street. They told us that they were negotiating with the license holders when it released on Switch but there has been no word since. I know that they can't say much about license deals but it's been about 2 months and there has been no update.
- As mentioned in the first post, 9 perks are missing from the game. They told us that we can get them from the Shrine but only one has shown up (Knock Out). When the Archives released they updated the shrine with BBQ and Chilli, but didn't include it on Switch. Multiple posts were made on the forum but no response was given. I feel like it was an unprofessional way to deal with the situation as we rely on the shrine to get these perks.
- We still don't have 3.3.0. They said that the update should be out this week but as of this Thursday no response has been given (sounds familiar?). I know it's a new platform that you're developing for but with the new PTB coming up this is a disappointing state.
I do love this game, but I don't think that the Switch is getting the attention it deserves. I would love it if a dev gave an update on these three points.

I really hope they are able to treat Switch players like PS4 and Xbox One players, and that they add cross-platform so me and my brother can play it together when we get it for Switch.

They are looking into cross play and cross saves. They mentioned it in their new survey.

Yeah, I know, and I'm looking forward to it, because I have a lot of friends who play it on different consoles. Maybe they could ask Epic Games for help on that feature, because they implemented it immediately in their game Dauntless, and think that they may have mastered it. It may be a bad idea, but, it is a valid one.

It is sad that we never got an answer about the missing perks. They haven't even added any of the new cosmetics to switch for those that want them.

I think that the new cosmetics are in the 3.3.0 update so we would have to wait until it released for us to get them.
