Why is there a ptb when the feedback is getting ignored?

I can't believe it, there already nerfing The Trickster. Around 80% of the videos I watched about him was that he lost the game. Everyone is saying that he is fun but weak.

But off course Bhvr gives a big sh** about it and do the opposite. They nerf a weak killer. I really wanted to play him but now I just want his perks and then is rotting in the select screen like clown and plague.

Now my question, why is there a ptb who people can give there feedback when it's getting ignored?

    They do this to find bugs weeks earlier so they can work on them later (answer from developer Q&A).

    Also it creates "hype" for new DLC. To be fair to them, it's not like they ignore all the feedback but they ignore many important points of feedback.

    They are not ignoring feedback. But they also have unbiased data from all matches, instead of your personal experiences or the ones from youtubers/streamers.

    they are not blindly using the feedback of the vocal minority that actually always cries about „killer too weak, need buff“ (yeah there are also always people crying about surv perks like this)

    The devs just use the PTB now so streamers can play it and advertise the new chapter to generate hype and try get more people to buy it.

    Because feedback is just taken for consideration.

    The PTB is for bug testing, and to either validate or invalidate the devs OWN concerns about certain gameplay mechanics.

    We've asked this before.

    Unfortunately they don't pay much heed to PTB feedback. BHVR is notoriously stubborn and distant.


    It's really annoying because the only communication really will be the dev Q&A and people will want to ask like a detailed question like why they didn't make bounce knives baskit- but the problem is that they will say something like "Well we felt that would make him unbalanced" or something like that and leave it there- but of course the problem is we have already had those discussions and pointed out the tons of flaws in that statement on the forums and in the feedback section; with incredibly detailed solutions to problems.....yet none of them will ever be brought to attention.

    Some folks will then just reference back to that like it's absolute truth anytime after that anyone tries to discuss the topic, and just talk over any actual valid points.

    It's quite maddening.
