Fix the causes of lobby dodging first.What are you talking about? People will dodge over cosmetics, how can they fix that? Try re-reading the post.
I'm not talking about those special cases of dodging, I'm talking about the reason the average Killer would decide to dodge a lobby.
Seriously, is everything immediately an extreme for you?

If you don't know what I mean, its when hillbilly uses his chainsaw and in the first 1-2 seconds can curve in certain directions at some, pretty unfair ratesBut continuing with this, the flick on hillbilly does not seem to be balanced at all, the rest is fine, but to god damn flick, you can simply scale a wall with this power, one second you deal with a killer who some its balanced and fair-ish, and others broken as hell, the next you deal with a flick that can break any chase...
This sounds like salt but, come on, flick is what breaks some games in the first place
Why does it break the game?
Because our toxic Feng Min doesn't like being chainsawed.

I don't get why they removed them. Just because they kept popping up didn't mean you had to remove them entirely, you could've reworked the bloodweb.But yeah, PLEASE ADD ULTRA RARE PERKS BACK PLEASEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
That was their way of reworking it: remove the lowest and the highest Rarity from the Perks. It was a band-aid, but it worked and hence they kept it instead of doing it properly.
The first fix they tried made the Bloodweb spawn Perks in strict order of Rarity. You wouldn't get any Tier 3 Perk until you haven't gotten all Tier 1 and 2 Perks.
-
Just a PSA: it is possible to change the Perk icons, but not specifically allowed. It's a "Do at your own risk". The devs don't ban for it specifically, but should EAC mess up and detect it as file editing and ban you, you'll be on your own.

There are two things about Hallowed blight lore, which really bother me. And, before I name them out, I have to say, that at some point I think (not 100% sure) devs confirmed, that Hallowed blight journal entries were made by Benedict. So yeah...
First one. Why every entry have a date? Benedict lost his sense of time in endless night, like, right after he arrived in Entity realm. Some of his base lore entries (clickable) have date, but right after he began to give them ordinal numbers, because he couldn't determine, which date or time is now.
Second one. Benedict Baker is researcher. He is smart and observant guy, the one, who connected missing cases in Weeks town and Macmillan Estate. The very same guy, who prefers to collect information and seek the truth. Tho in Hallowed Blight event he couldn't connect his wounded arm, which was bitten by rodent, injected by serum and the fact that he was able to beat and imprison killer in fist fight. He freakin punced him, and his body crushed at the opposite wall, ffs! So, after he became stronger, he, for some reason, decides to inject killer with very same serum... why? Like, literally, why he did it, what was the damn point of it? He was presented as researher, smart guy, why the hell he coundn't add two plus two and for the second think about consequences?
Anyway, injected killer becomes stronger and escapes. What a twist.They have a date because those were the dates each piece of Lore was published by the Event. They do not reflect the actual time passing in the Hallowed Blight Lore.

The debuff's always been there. It just didn't turn the bar red until the last patch.This.
Also IIRC the 10% debuff is between both survivors, so when you have 2 on a gen it's actually 1.9 c/s not 1.8. That's why the bar turns blue when you are on the gen with someone using PT because it adds 10% for them, which negates the debuff, and why it turns yellow when you have more than one surv with PT because now you have more than 10% buff.
No. The debuff is applied PER Survivor.
The reason why there's no apparent debuff in the PT situation you're describing is because of the game rounding up an individual speed of 0.99 to 1.0

The in-game graphics settings are pretty barren on purpose. The devs didn't want people to be able to gain potentially unfair advantages by tweaking specific settings.As for why it doesn't run in exclusive fullscreen, that's mostly to prevent any crashes related to tabbing in and out of fullscreen.
Thats just a bad excuse.
Other games, even real competitive ones, offer graphic optiosn too
Prevent crashes? Yeah maybe fix the goddamn game thenIt's the official reasoning they have given us as such complaints have arisen already back in 2016. Don't shoot the messenger.
-
This would kill the last bit of character diversity we still have.
Claudette and Meg are already overused because of Sprint Burst and Self-Care. Their pick-percentages are considerably ahead of those of other characters. Passive stuff like that would only worsen the problem.

The one community shipping that even the devs have brought up a couple of times after it got popular in the community is the Nurse and Wraith.
-
New Perks and Killers are not the solution to balance problems. Game mechanics need to be addressed.
-
I don't support this idea for several reasons. Since I already discussed this with Orion in private chat, I'll only give the TL;DR
- There's no consensus on which Perks are powerful aside from a select few and even those are ambiguous amongst mains of either side.
- How often a Perk is used is not a perfect indication of its strength.
- Consensus on which Perk is how powerful would likely not be reached: the Developers don't know their own game well enough outside of their in-house matches for that (I'm sorry devs, but you've proven this to be the case multiple times already and continue to do so). As for the community, considering the huge disputes already simple Killer Tier-lists continue to create even amongst seasoned Players, the community too isn't competent enough to reach a consensus. If people still doubt that, read through some of the other posts on this forum.
- It's already annoying having to choose just 4 Perks out of a pool of nearly 60. I don't even want to start imagining the headache also having to think about which Tiers you're going to use on which Perk would add to this.
- Generally, I do not want any artificially enforced restriction on my choice of Perk load-out and also not on the strength of each individual Perk Tier.
-
Git gud, whiner.
1) It's Ultra Rare
2) It increases the required evil to reach Tier III so much that it required near constant stalking for the majority of the Trial
3) The movement penalty is so hefty that you won't be able to catch up for the longest time, disregarding any Pallets and Windows -
Mine arrived today.

I understand and couldn't agree more, although when the game makes changes, IN MY OPINION, it most times benefits the killers. And using items, playing a certain character, and having certain perks should not effect a normal day of gameplay. If devs could solve the issue by not having killers see our items is all. (Also to mention, when Killers were crying about survivors seeing their perks upon death and possibly sharing to other survivors in game, they covered that up. Now do us a fav pwease. ^-^@LegitAdventurer said:
This game is a sinking ship. Killers like that are going to drown this game. I play both survivor and Killer and i don't dodge, ever. I even played (earlier today) against a 4 man SWF claudette squad with 4 med kits. I still played against them and got a 3k so everyone needs to stop moaning and crying about how op the survivors are! It's so sad.There should defintely be a penalty for dodging lobbies, give them a 15 minute stackable ban everytime they dodge.
As a survivor we wait anywhere from 10-20 minutes just to get dodged, sometimes multiple games in a row. And I dont even play 4 man SWF, i don't play claudette, i rarely use items, i don't use decisive strike, i don't teabag.
Both sides have all of these "excuses" and "rules" that the other side can't do because everyone is so fragile. Killers cry, survivors cry. Why can't we just all play the game that we're choosing to play? I don't disconnect and dodge my games. Why does everyone else? I never understood playing a game just to quit when you aren't good at it.
Maybe you haven't been around for very long, but let me assure you, that in comparison to how many buffs Survivors and nerfs Killers got prior to 2.0.0+, Survivors still hold the higher number of "favours" they got from the devs.
-
I'm still proud to have never ever used that Perk to this day, not even when I had to have it equipped to get Adept Laurie. It's literally the only Perk I refuse to use, because I consider it completely unfair and skillless. Decisive Strike cannot be balanced in its current forum.
-
Vessels are only destructible for as long as a Survivor is hooked. Once they are unhooked or die, the Vessels turn white again rather quickly.
-
@Ihatelife said:
So you just wanna make this perk more useless than before? People already doesn't heal themselves and just gen rush the killer.
So a Perk that is used by almost every single high-ranked Survivor is "useless"? Congrats on winning the Delusion Award.
-
"Her PTB voice was never intended to be her release voice."
Suuuuuuuure... as if I believe that. The devs caved in to crybabies not being able to handle that wonderfully gory, piercing scream she had. A scream that perfectly fits a horror game.
I've been looking forward to hear that more often already when those files were leaked almost a year before Kate was finally implemented into the game and then they pulled this crap.

Each prestige outfit is unique. The blood is not just an overlay slapped on top of the default clothing. That's why.

@Bongbingbing said:
Would love this! I run Shadowborn on most my killers just because the default FOV is so small.I'd love a third person killer option too, I wanna see my cosmetics god damnit
Killers have first person + tunnel vision for balancing purposes. A third person camera would make them overpowered.
-
You can scratch the "anymore". They've never been a secret.
-
Respecting a Survivor's self-unhook has NEVER been a thing, not even in 2016. It was always a made-up Survivor rule.

Jplanas98 said:Just reading your replies I can tell you're a straight up moron. You're getting butthurt because everyone is disagreeing with your 2 brain cell idea. You want to buff Sprint Burst by pressing a button to activate it, you're a moron for thinking it takes skill when it does the complete opposite. You activate the skill via button while fully healed just to get a free getaway? No skill in that whatsoever. At least with dead hard you have to be injured. And then you refuse to talk about counterplay because you know there would be none. You just don't want to admit the idea is stupid, so you try to negate everyone's argument by trying to insult them. It just sounds like you're bad at the game.
Everything about this reply is hypocritical.
Absolutely not. You just can't accept it.

That’s your opinion and I applaud you for having one. But in case you didn’t know, the world doesn’t revolve around you. You said your opinion now let’s hear others. Bye bye.
That's the general consensus every time this unnecessary buff is suggested. You're not the first to suggest it, and you won't be the last, but AFAIK, you are the first to pretend it's not a massive buff.
Once again, thanks for your opinion. Now let’s hear what others have to say.
The others have to say that they agree with Orion. Your suggestion is a considerable buff to Sprint Burst and the devs have been quite adamant that it would make the Perk too strong.

In terms of Gameplay:
1) Howling Grounds
2) Summer BBQ
3) Moonrise
4) Hallowed BlightIn terms of Lore or Atmosphere:
1) Hallowed Blight
2) Howling Grounds/Summer BBQ/
3) MoonriseIn terms of Theme Music:
1) Moonrise
2) Summer BBQ
3) Hallowed Blight
4) Howling Grounds (didn't have any special theme music) -
1) Having a theme for each Killer would be nice, but unlikely. Playing your own music is not a feature I see asked often, let alone at all.
2) Why? Also not asked often or at all.
3) I don't see the point. Only unfair towards those who already put in tons of hours before devotion was even a thought.
4) Absolutely, gimme that. However, if at all, we have to wait until dedicated servers are realised.
5) Why?
6) Would be nice.
7) I and several Freddy mains disagree on the rework, on the grounds that 1) he doesn't need any besides some QoL changes if you know how to play him and 2) any rework would most probably lower his skill ceiling and potentially even nerf him with the exception of games against noobs.
8) Wouldn't solve the problem of fast games due to broken core mechanics and it also shouldn't be the solution. Gen repairing is repetitive enough, alternative objectives are the way to go.

@DocOctober If I was bming him I wouldn’t have asked this question because I’d already know why they did it, try againI'm just saying how it is. You may think you didn't do anything toxic or to deserve being BMed, but you probably did, potentially unaware of it.
-
I'm pretty sure you weren't as innocent as you claim you were. High-ranked, experienced Killers generally don't BM a specific Survivor just for fun.

The Howling Grounds Hooks and Gens are only there for decoration this time.

@Master said:
I ask you one question.Do you really want the cosmetics so badly? And do you want them all?
Sometimes its just better to skip some events....
Definitely not a solution to this issue.
-
Well, that's how it was originally envisioned to be. However, considering that only one Envelope spawns per Bloodweb and barely any being played, the grind is out of proportion.

Most the people who don't think Freddy is bad play at low ranks and don't have very many hours. Their lack of experience influences their opinion.

He IS underrated.
This picture shows nothing to contradict my statement.
It shows triple-prestiged Freddy on Rank 4. The prestige is mostly to show that I invested into him, not just by Bloodpoints, but also by play time.
Unlike what you claim, some people here who think that he's not bad actually do play him on high ranks and do good.
You know, just because you yourself can't pull it off, doesn't mean others can't as well.
I have played my P3 Freddy with all perks in the game at t3 unlocked at rank 1 on every reset since his release and I have over 2,700 hours in this game. I think I have a better understanding of Freddy than you think you do.
"Unlike what you claim, some people here who think that he's not bad actually do play him on high ranks "
If you really think this I will gladly link my pageThen I really don't know what your problem is. I'm doing fine with him, obviously you should too if it's true what you claim.
Git gud issue?
Also, again assuming everything you said is true, then you should realise that any rework will quite likely hamper the potential he currently has.
You can't really say "Git gud issue?" when you aren't even at rank 1 with him much less hundreds of hours at rank 1. The difference is I've played him enough to know when you did well because he's "strong" and when it was really just because you had a group of dumb survivors that made a lot of mistakes. I do well with him perk less and addon less quite regularly but that doesn't mean he is good or better than people think he is, it just means the average survivor is bad and you are conflating those 2 things.
I care to disagree.
And regarding that Rank thingy. I didn't have a screenshot of Rank 1 with him, it was the only screenshot I had at hand.
I'm not saying you have a git gud issue, just that it sounds like one. There's a difference. I may not have hundreds of hours exclusively on him, but I'd say more than enough to also know where my skills lie.
-
Sorry, but people like you just confuse me. Your comments read like they were made by someone who has trouble playing Freddy, hence my assumptions earlier on.

Can you do anything else besides making posts that make you look like the saltiest Survivor main there is?
My favorite Killer is Freddy, the hardest KIller there is. I just don't like playing 'easy-mode' classes, I prefer to work for my kills and expect that for all classes.
You and playing Killer? An excellent joke, mate.
-
Any rework will nerf him. I'm sure of it.
Freddy requires time and effort to master. He won't become a second Nurse for it, but he is more than valuable.

It's probably a bug, but a nice feature nonetheless.

1) Legion needs a complete redesign. He's the definition of design desaster.
2) I disagree wholeheartedly. I'm convinced that any rework of his power will ONLY make him worse and handicap the potential he currently holds if you put time into really learning him. I'm one of those who excels with his kit and I don't think it bad that it requires some time and effort to get there. Not every Killer should be easy to play or be made easier for newbies. All he needs are some QoL updates so that not literally every game mechanic shows him the middle finger. Mainly, his lunge should prefer asleep over awake Survivors (currently it's the other way round) and healing should not override his pick-up interaction. His base range could also be increased a bit.
3) Bubba does need some love regarding his Chainsaw. It should accelerate quicker and his Chilli Add-ons should be reworked to actually do something (their current effects are not noticeable unless you have dev tools available to make measurements).
4) No opinion on that.
