New Sprint Burst nerf is an absolute joke

Eskay

Currently what they want to do, imo, is really stupid because it will, no doubts, decently nerf sprint burst but dead hard will be absolutely destroyed and there will be no point of using it.
Devs should just add an acceleration for the moment when you start using it so you can't instantly start running at the speed of sound but you need time to achieve this speed. Like you get this speed in 1-1.5 seconds.
I think with this change sprint won't counter pig or freddy so hard and dead hard will remain being useful.
(opinion of a killer main with almost 900 hrs)

The days of using a sprint burst to get to a pallet... loop like a tryhard... tbag and then get sprint burst just in time to go the the next loop/pallet are over.

Adapt.

Killers had to adapt for about 1 year worth of bullying and SWF nonsense.

Eh not really. Biggest problem with the perk isn’t even being addressed. Just another cheap bandaid that hurts actually good perks and builds. Now sprint burst is the top dog EVEN MORE. Other ones were good for quick usage during a chase, not get out of jail burst. And, vigil is basically alley trash now

As quirky as you are... you're very wrong.

Don't say things are "just a band aid"... just because everyone else says it. Sprint Burst is supposed to get you away from a killer. That's the point.

However.. running shouldn't allow you to regen that 40 second burst again... it's just bad. Now, people can't do that. It really balances out a strong perk, and at the very least will force people to shake up their 4-6 perk setup.

Vigil does need something done to it... I agree.

This nerf to all exhaustion perks is a good start. It might be too strong for tryhard survivors but we'll have to see.

I think they should just change sprint bursts cooldown to 100 or 120 seconds. AND have it require you to sprint, and then it’ll activate 3 seconds later. To prevent sprinting across the map freely, even if you press the sprint button for just a millisecond, it’ll still activate in 3 seconds.

I may be in the minority here, but I do feel that this change will make the other exhaustion perks much more powerful. Currently, Sprint Burst is such a popular choice because it has no requirements to activate, unlike other perks such as Lithe, Dead Hard, and Balanced Landing. However, with this change to exhaustion, survivors would arguably be better off playing more strategically with their exhaustion perk and using one that they have more control over opposed to Sprint Burst.

Tbh the exhaustion change makes it feel more realistic. Even in real life you have to slow down/stop running to get rid of exhaustion. Don't get it why people complain.



You compare a real life situation to a game? They even said " It's just a game ". If they hang you in a hook you through the chest you'd probably die. If the killer hits you with a cattle hammer in the head I think you go on the ground instantly etc. You get my point? It's just a game after all this goes to all tryharders who think that the end of the world comes with nerfs, losing pips etc. You gain nothing from pips and you lose nothing. GL & HF

I get you dood. I don't mind the "nerf" at all. Just gotta use my sprint burst more sparingly i do love a challenge though.

Yeah, when it comes to hooks, anyone who didn’t get their heart pierced, could jump off if they are strong enough to do a flag pull up. And healing people with back rubs wouldn’t really help.

Then you've never gotten a back rub from me

Can’t argue with that.

now, would you give another man's wife a foot massage? That's the real question here

I said it before, I'll say it again.

This will nerf Vigil more then Sprint Burst.

This is also very true, as Vigil won't even be active while running. Poor Quentin, his best perk getting indirectly nerfed because the big-mouth Decisive T-Bag Flashlighters were messing with the poor servants of the Entity again. R.I.P. Vigil's good use while running, you will be missed.

Dev stream said looking to buff vigil so you do recover while running
