Can we change the hit assist on killer please?
ALL killer mains know what im talking about, when a survivor is moving to the left and right in front of you and you go to swing, and you get forcefully turned to the left of right HARD and it causes you to miss even though they are right in front of you. im not even sure if the survivors know what they did but it is getting annoying how much it is happening recently. either remove this hit assist or update it please, im tired of having my swings miss because of it (also fix ghost saws on billy at the same time if you could)

Yeah. it is really dumb. Its been a thorn in killer's sides since the beggining. And yes survivors know what they are doing; give a gamer something to exploit and they will run to the other side of the world with it. I would love to see them change it.

Agree with this 100%. Sure, sometimes it causes you to hit someone in some sort of astronomical way, but usually you just miss in embarrassing fashion, usually allowing the survivor to get to another loop or window and prolong the chase even more.

Actually no, i don't, but if it's a thing, then sure.

the worst part of it besides the missed hit is how HARD your camera jerks to one side making you FEEL it. then the devs say there is no hit assist x.x

Yes, thank you. I've also been noticing it more recently, which leads me to believe it has to do with dedicated servers. Like I'm pretty sure it's an established fact that dedicated servers made survivor movement much more snappy and quick, which is fine, but I'm quite certain it's ######### with the hit detection.
Updating the hit detection could also fix Billy's phantom saws.

It is frustrating. A few games ago I went for a lunge around a crate that the survivor was looping around, knowing I had the distance to hit the survivor. Yet, it kind of auto locked me onto the edge of the crate instead of letting me lunge around it like I intended.
It has been like this for ages. Mind you, I come across it quite rarely but when it happens it is annoying.

yeah i said about this in my post about removing hit assist but apparently the devs have already said that its not a thing even though then what do you explain my swing suddenly getting dragged left and right when i swing at survivor.

I have never encountered this before. Your understanding of the sequence of events is wrong. You only snap left or right if you already hit the survivor. In other words, the snapping happens after the hit detection. Hit -> snap. No hit -> no snap.
You can try it out. Do a wide spin when you swing, you will hit surprisingly more often due to how hit detection works.
Edit:
Of course you need to have some common sense and not spin in the direction of a wall...

This. Aim assist doesn't exist in this game. The snap is just the animations trying to match game mechanics

then why do I get the snap then miss the hit? I know my lunge range and lots of times I have gone for the attack my camera will jerk and I miss the hit

This is quite annoying, it actually broke my damn camera once after swinging getting the assist or whatever and it jerking to one side, then it kept forcefully shaking, jiggling or whatever left and right throughout the match and it made it near impossible to hit anyone

It's been a problem since 3.0.0, or maybe earlier. I don't remember experiencing it before then, but 3.0.0 is when they supposedly addressed killer lunge animations. All that happened after that is killers started hitting walls in hallways, and doing the animation people have described, where the survivor is taking up 3/4 of your screen and you swing, but you just whiff the air and they're unscathed.
