Good thing they made it so killers didn't need to run regression perks
I'm so glad they added the 10 seconds to the gens so killers didn't feel the need to run regression perks. After adding that 10 seconds, killers definitely wouldn't all be running 3 regression perks like Overcharge, Call of Brine and Thana every game. Definitely don't see that. I'm so glad we have devs that understand killers will just play nice and won't take advantage of the slower gens by running even more gen regression. The game is in a great spot!

Slowdown Perks are still needed, don't know what to tell you
A couple things.
1. Thana... isn't a regression perk? It's slowdown, but it doesn't cause you to lose progress.
2. Despite upping gen times, they kept base regression at 0.25c/s, which is 4 seconds to undo 1 second of progress. The base 2.5% loss on a kick is a measly 2.25 seconds. With base regression so poor, people are going to compensate with perks.
3. CoB and Overcharge regress gens over time. Old Meta had gens instantly lose 15-25% of progress regularly. You have more counterplay to the regression now than you did before.
The increased difficulty is not nearly as bothersome as the predictability of matches.
When they said they were doing a big meta shake up, you would think that would mean that the optimal strategies pre-patch would no longer apply. Instead all ;they did was nerf some anti-gen perks but compensated by buffing others. While additionally soft buffing every single anti gen perk in the game. It changes very little, and just makes the game harder.
I know the original post is being sarcastic but Iโve been running loadouts with no slowdown and I can definitely feel the difference. Yeah you can also run slowdown still obviously, but if you feel like running all chase perks or whatever you can and as long as you actually play well youโll do ok.
I haven't seen any of that stuff. Like no face camping outside of endgame at all. Base BT has saved me from like a dozen huntress hatchets. Maps are still so safe that if you can't get to a loop with haste and 5s of invulnerability you're doing something wrong.
