Still 2 big issues with the pallets

Getting rid of the vacuum was perfect, however 2 things still remain, one most recently is starting to piss me off.

  1. The hit box is to damn big, how many times have you gotten hit by a pallet, that you clearly shouldn't have, but the hit boxes say otherwise? To many for me.
  2. Survivors getting hit when they clearly crossed over. Can't tell you how many times I have been on the other side sliding across the pallet from my POV but still get downed by the killer. But on the other end, I have hit so many survivors that just make me go "I got that?"

I know the 2nd one has a lot to do with the whole Peer2Peer deal that the DEVs have been running, so maybe there isn't a fix to this one.

    1. Not that much. But i don't play killer as often so maybe that's for me to come
    2. They are slightly decreasing the time to stun. Also the animation when you are standing still in front of the pallet will be faster. That should help the "I got stunned and got the hit of after stun"

    I just wanted to ask if you ever get smacked after jumping through and running a few inches away from a vault/window? This happens to me ALL the time. Was this a change in the latest update?

    Re pallets:  They are changing the drop animation for survs and also when the stun occurs in the pallet drop (beginning rather than end) that will definitely fix the survivir side complaints.  Not so much the killer side, but thats normal.

    Re: vaults - that's intended, killers can swing through an open window and hit if you are within weapon range.  You can do this even if there is no vault and you catch a surv watching you through a window.

    The stun happens in the end of the animation, rather than in the middle of the animation. If you walk into the hit box just as the drop ends, you'll be stunned.

    Once they change that, there will be fewer instances of killers walking into a last second pallet stun, and fewer instances of unfair-looking hit trades.

    That's always been like, pretty sure. The hurtbox for killers extents past the window.

    The only really unfair ones are the ones that happen when crossing the pallet. I can be nearly at the other side of a pallet and still be hit.

    Thank you for the clarification.
