Will SWF groups ever get some balance changes?
Because the game is very Survivor sided againts majority of Killers when facing 3+ people who are ready to bodyblock, call you out anytime they want on their discord, have good items, meta perks, flashlight saves and sabo hooks ready to go, etc. (aka they play the most effectively they can)
I don't want to punish people for playing with friends but at the same time is it really good to ignore the obvious big difference between SWF groups and solos?? Maybe don't nerf Survivors who play together but give the killer some extra buffs. Maybe some % action speed, gens will take bit longer, denie their map offerings, etc.

Nope. It's easily the most unbalanced crock in the game but "people want to play with their friends." So therefore you can't do anything with it.
Yea, I think you are right. I think devs are too scared to nerf people playing together because "it ruins their fun". So we will forever be stuck in unbalanced game when facing groups. If they would rly want to balance it, it would be allready done by now, maybe even many years ago.
Well they can't nerf swf because technically it doesnt even give game mechanical advantages.
Not in the game but third party tools and player mentality.
There's simply no distinction between "solo" and swf. Thats why the solo swf gap stuff debate is kinda a perpetual problem and quite a slippery slope.
Additionally i remember the devs being cited for explicitely not wanting to differentiate between survivor and survivor with friends.
Slightly off topic:
The sister-problem with solo/swf v lowtier/hightierkiller is that somehow the ideal balance for sirvivor is "cheating" survivors stronger than whats the most powerful possible with game mechanics while the killers have their proper balance, according to community, at B+ tier. Rant over.
Pffft, you should know by now the devs will never need swf. How will they come out with videos of themselves bullying killers and laughing at them on YouTube if they did?
