    That's his biggest nerf. Overheat mechanic doesn't seem to be that restrictive

    My first match of the day was against a Billy. Literally did all 5 generators with him hitting nobody until near the end, where he finally got a few of us pretty good. Only sacrificed me by the end and I still felt bad for him. He was trying so hard. He wasn't super pro rank or anything but you could tell it was frustrating.

    His turning is completely unchanged from what it was before the update. If you're noticing a difference, please create a bug report.

    So they just killed flick completely? Or is he only a straight line now?

    The engravings got nerfed, unless they didnt, so thats probably it.

    Really? That's actually so sad. I feel bad for every Curve Billy Main out there.

    He can still turn the first second of the chainsaw like the old flickbilly, the problem is the maneuverability over medium to long distances: he cannot literally turn anymore.

    btw my addons from last game: doom engravings and punctured muffler.

    idk maybe just a bug. i'm soooooo sad.

    I thought you made the initial curve have a delay. Could you inform me if that is correct or not?

    That delay was caused by serious ping issues on the ptb. It'd Match everyone in lobbies with like 200+ ping and so movement was buggered. The devs admitted on discord there was meant to be absolutely no changes to curving or feathering or anything like that and anything that was changed wasn't meant to be and is a bug

    Wow, What? Are you saying he can't turn while he's using his chainsaw sprint? I'm going to try it.. I hope it's not true..

    No, that's not the case. That was an issue on the PTB caused by the latency issue (which was also the case before when you had high latency).

    Aside from the heat and add-ons of course, the controls of the chainsaw have not changed at all.

    Had this game for years.

    For some reason, hillbilly was really unappealing to me so I've played him maybe 6 or 7 times legit (not farming) and even I can tell it's really off after trying it once today.

    It was clearly touched, I doubt it was intentional though as said before.
