Pip-compensation against SWF
SWF clearly shows how much this game can be abused, and killers suffer drastically, so why not give hem a little compensation for pipping when versing them?

The problem is not compensation. Kicking someone in the balls and then giving them €100 isn't going to make it any less painful or any less tedious.
SWF just needs to be nerfed to the point it's on the same level as solo players, or there needs to be an option for players (Killers and Survivors) to avoid SWF.
What does SWF stand for? I'm drawing a blank.
Survive With Friends. It's actually an excellent concept, and is a great addition to the game, the problem lies in voice communications. By using Discord or whatever app, SWF groups get multiple free Perks and it actually circumvents many game mechanics. Since it's a third-party application, it should be considered cheating, but so many people use it that the Devs are too scared to do anything about it.
It's awesome to be able to survive with your friends, but the ones who abuse voice communications (cheat) cause so many problems because it is overpowered. Survivors who aren't on comms, and of course the Killer, are put at a huge disadvantage. They literally need to get rid of this cheating, but they won't because too many people use it. It's a shame too. The game could be extremely well-balanced just by removing voice communication, but until they do anything they do to balance it will be worthless.
1. Make it so the killer can see how many join in the lobby as swf. Like it will say next to name, or have a check box.
2. Give the killer 25% extra blood points per each swf that joins. You can't use BP for cosmetics or characters so it's just incentive for the killer to start the match to help the bloodweb.
The killer would have the choice to back out of the lobby, or try his luck against them for the chance of more BP even though they may be on comms. It may not be the best way, but I feel it would make it a heck of a lot easier to get matches and to balance things out somewhat.
i don't want more pips it's feel lonely here in rank 1 (lobby times).. I can't wait for the rank reset lol.
But i agree that survivors have advantage againts killers in overall. But that is the work of the devs to identify and solve balance issues. As much as we are aware of it. It's they who need to be aware.
I don't care for ranking and would rather just have a fun match. Giving me more "pips" would simply put me up against more SWF groups at high ranks...no thanks.
