Nerf the Hillbilly?
I think its SO ridiculous that the hillbilly has unlimited sprint. I think he should have to go into lockers and get gasoline cans, so he can have a certain duration of sprint, instead of the overpowered marathon billy.

He's the only strong killer console has (Nurse and Huntress are much harder on console) that if you nerfed him we would only have the Doc and Myers left.
So no, nerf something else instead, how about Nurse? :P
I guess all of the guys above is hillbilly mains and cried their salty tears when they wrote their comments on this. Lol.
How about you learn to dodge the chainsaw? There's more than enough pallets, walls, etc., to go around.
Oh, and since you seem unable to process the idea that someone might disagree with you based simply on the idea that your suggestion is bad, I am notoriously bad with the Hillbilly and still disagree with you.
Nurse is already played too much, can we please buff every other killer or finally rename this game into Dead by Nurse?
i'm a hillbilly main and i have no salt or tears to shed. i think all killers should be nurse tier but thats just my opinion.... nerf billy if you want. i don't really care. bottom line is this - i play billy because i like him. i like his backstory and i want to see him succeed. i want to unlock his little outfits and i want to develop a unique playstyle that separates me from the pack. you can nerf him so far down hes asking the wraith for permission to speak. i'll still pick billy. hes fun. if i wanted actual results, i'd pick the nurse....
Nurse I think is nearly unplayable on console right now. This may be because of the framerate issues though.
Or maybe, your idea is just plain stupid, unwarranted and unnecessary.
Clearly I'm a Doctor main, so don't try to pull that crap of "oh you're just a salty Hillbilly main" with me.
I don't know whether the Billy needs a buff to get him to Nurse status, he's pretty good right now. But absolutely all other killers need buffs to get them to at least his level of power.
"cough cough" Leatherface buffs "cough"
I'm by no means the best Billy out there but it is not very hard to dodge that chainsaw. Not to mention after a Billy attempts to hit you with it 3-5 times you would most likely have gotten hit with that mallet long ago so its all worked out the same. He by no means needs a nerf simply because you have difficulty with him. Have you tried to play Billy against mid/high tier players?
But every 4th match or so I get a killer that actually belongs in the high ranks with me and doesnt have all the meta perks for thier build and then suddenly my sorry surv skills wreck the poor baby killer with a chase that lasts 2 minutes and involves a lot of chainsawing walls, blinking past my badly executed 180s, or whiffing M1 before while taking a pallet to the face.
My point is, fix the ranking system so players are actually against other similarly skilled players, or at least players with hours played in the same order of magnitude, and we'll stop seeing so many of these "xxxxx is OP" posts.
As everyone else has said, DODGE HIS CHAINSAW!!! Unless he's running Thompson's Moonshine, his turning radius is horrible. And before you say I'm a salty Hillbilly main, I probably fall into the small group of people who prefer Leatherface. I've only played Billy twice, both times on Haddonfield. You know, one of those maps where he is at his worst (so many obstacles).
He's fine as is. The unlimited sprint ability really only shines with the right combination of add-ons, and maps. He's really the only killer who's able to put full map pressure on a team of survivors.
Even then, he can still only chase 1 person at a time, so if a group simply spreads out, he still suffers the same "weakness" as every other killer.
Nurss and billy are overpowered, but killers in general are weak. OP-Weak=Balanced. If they get a nerf, DO IT AFTER THE GAME IS AT LEAST SOMEWHAT BALANCED
i would also like to add that when i picked billy, he was the weakest killer and wraith was OP.... nothing has changed for billy since then. only ppls attitude towards him....
Yeah, because looking into lockers every 15s is so damn fun, right ?
We'll get survivors to have to look into lockers everytime they want to use sprint burst, see how fun it makes the game for you.
how about this instead.
It's getting harder and harder to tell the real whine threads from the bait.
Survivors shouldn't be allowed unlimited tbagging! Everyone knows that you can barely move after squats, so they should be slowed by 5% for 3 matches after hitting 50 squats!
Lel gud sirviours just use the autoaim glitches and it makes you fly with your chainsaw in opposite direction
lmmfao.... it was a dark and stormy night....
Please.... continue...
No survivors knew how to loop or infinite. Machine gun build existed. Shadow born made your field of view almost twice the size. The end.
yup. pretty much.... Trapper was 'perfectly balanced', Wraith was 'OP as ****' and my poor ol' Billy was a 'trash killer and only there for ppl who enjoyed abuse'.... true story....
Game start: 1 person dc when you find them, the other 2 dc , last one dc cause he's last. The meta hasn't been balanced to give the power role back to killers, wraith was op cause of the surprise hits and insta mori. The survivore learned to loop, and got urban evasion and d strike.
Honey, where are my pallet loops?
The only thing I think Billy it's op is his insta-chainsaw
