What's the point?
Why make a community crafted killer, letting us pick their power, perks and appearance, if all the creativity that went into this is just going to be tossed away? Why are we nerfing the power EVERYONE picked? Why are we changing the difficulty that the community wanted? From what I am hearing, the power is being nerfed because people want to read chat? By that logic, might as well take away all skill checks on n the game because it's easier to read chat and focus. That's ridiculous

It sucks because the parts that were voted were so good it was just when bhvr took the decisions out of our hands and changed them with no chance for feedback what-so-ever. (Ptb to live changes)
At this point I think everyone is more excited about the mmr changes than the new chapter and killer.
It takes away the agency we wanted. As someone who actually streams, this is a stupid change. If you are reading chat mid chase( which you shouldn't do anyway) you're most likely going to get hit. That's the risk you run
This nerf is gonna start a movement mark my words, Justice for Judgement!
Wanna know what will give Streamers (TTV's) plenty of chance to read their chat?
Being slugged for 4 Minutes, can look away all you like then 🤣
Not saying I will, but I can see a slew of killer matches getting thrown for the pleasure.
Would just show the average maturity of Killer Mains.
And well, if you start mass-slugging streamers, you will receive Anti-Slugging changes pretty quickly. BHVR takes the advertisement via Streamers seriously, if all you can see on Twitch is that you just lie on the ground in DBD, you will not attract new players and BHVR will solve it.
So on that note… slug all you want, lol.
Can't wait for more hand holding guess?
Also I said I wouldn't do it, but you just know this is the reaction that will and should honestly come of this because its the only way killers gonna get heard.
Nah, I just think it is childish to let it out on others.
They mostly do what they want (devs) so maybe they will overreact as you say or they will stay idle who knows.
Like who asked for pallet density?? We got +10 or so on every map and then -15 plus shorter less safe loops and no one asked for any of these which just shows they do what they want clearly. Only time they listened some creators was skullmerchant nerf that comes to my mind.
All we know now (kinda from ptb) is that judgement will be pain in butt to paly as like extreamly hard killer (probably more harder then billy because atleast billy as 4,6 speed and can play more simply too and cant just use saw all the time to get results) with extream punishments when missplaying/missing with her. Already now she is like viable for like half of the community meaning big part of palyer base cant play her at useable level against simulary skilled opponents (mmr) because she is hard and closer you are with her she sucks more and now her range option is nerfed too so its just medium spam beam killer in my opinion or you can try hit range long shots but if survivors dont sleap and watch their surroundings they will easily doge pillar beam that has smaller hitbox then huntresses hatchets or you can go close chase and you will have to look away from survivior and hope you get thair position right and get that hit or you loose distance.
Gold playing slinger,billy,vecna (the first) they are atleast simple.
She can bypass ds and other strong meta perks plus saves true but also wont satck well with many top regression perks so its slowdown/endgame build plus aura read.
balancing towards streamers isn’t balancing, it’s catering, those changes are not okay…
Handholding, you mean like balancing the game in a way that one side statistically wins more?
I mean TBF I agree that no change should be made on behalf of streamers QOL that directly influence gameplay but its not being nerfed for people who are in chase, its being nerfed against being used to snipe people on gens as the devs believe people will not have enough reaction time to make it fair… IDK how that will look on launch, i think it'll be clear pretty quick whether the nerf should be reversed or not
this is the tik tok generation you have to remember. when people grow up with infinite content and no need to be bored you get wandering attention spans
Honestly, as much as I hate to say it, this is likely what will be the most heard response. Direct consequences in game will upset the most people.
Should not balance the game around streamers who want to read chat. But skills check could be easier the one that comes instantly is easy to miss if you lose focus at least on console.
