BHVR couldn't at least attempt to find a sound-alike? The new voice is too gruff and has, like, no personality. He was my favorite survivor to play as before, but this new voice sucks so hard it makes me not want to play as him. The old one sounded like he was actually panicked when he was hit, hooked, or injured. Now he just sounds like a caveman who smokes two packs a day.
I know they aren't going to change it. Felt the need to say something anyway. Sucks that it had to happen to my fav character. I know he's not popular but he does have players who like him and we deserve better than "Jonah hurt. Jonah no like."

Honestly, I think your problem is more about playing solo-Q than about survivor in general.
Speaking as a killer main, there's a vast difference between playing against coordinated SWFs and solo players. I've been playing since 2017, and medkits have ALWAYS been the strongest item in the game.
The nerfs were necessary. Medkits are still very strong, but now you can't get 4 heals plus a syringe out of them. There are other good ways to heal. If you're a solo player, I strongly suggest the perk Bond to find people to heal you. You can thank me later.

So, the killer isn't camping a 3-gen
Survivor gets downed in a deadzone
And then he gets unhooked
I see no problem here and no reason to punish killer for survivor's mistake of going down in a deadzone

It's the same hook. The gens didnt walk off by themselves. The killer finds a good set up and sits there, as soon as a survivor walks in they get chased and downed in the deadzone. They then get tunnelled off the hook and set into the same deadzone, then again until they die. The survivors are unable to alleviate pressure from the killer because they have no reason to leave the area or gens. It promotes boring and stagnant gameplay.

The whole point is that it is a low risk high reward strategy which in higher levels of gameplay is going to be taken advantage of. Its up to the devs to fix.

I'm honestly having the least amount of fun I've had since the introduction of the SBMM system where you just couldnt lose as survivor. Now its on the other end of the scale and im just as miserable. I pick it up, play a couple, someone gets forced out at 3 or 4 gens and the game is over. Rinse and repeat for the next 10 games, get mad and stop playing for a week.

Whole game is decided in the first 90 seconds of the trial. If two people dont spawn on gens then first chase doesnt last long enough for people to recover. While it may be cognitive bias as I can only speak for myself, I'm just not having fun like I used to.

Game feels clunky and stunted, skill expression is at an all time low.

No offense, but at which arbitarily chosen generator count is killer allowed to chase survivors?

That's a disingenuous argument and you know it. Your hyperbole just shows you're incapable of having a productive discussion about the health of the game.

It is too easy to use cheap tactics to win as killer. Hooking someone in a deadzone and proxying camping them hitting them off hook and chasing them down for a free down is incredibly easy to do.

Lets not pretend its not happening. I run deli, dh, otr and DS and I can still be tunneled out of a game in less than 5 gens. Thats insane. I've got 4 perks to counter being tunneled and theres just nothing you can do if the killer wants you out of the game.

you turn a game into a 3v1 before 3 gens are done and its gg. That's counter intuitive to skill expression. Thats just ungabunga.

Jesus. I know you are completely biased twoards survivor in every way but people wanting people to not leave games early isn't entitlement.
You clearly have never played another multiplayer game in your life if this is the way you think. I'm just disappointed you feel this way and so many people agree with you, it's gross.
The last line you said basically makes everyone thing you say irrelevant to any conversation, you don't want to play a real game, you want to pick and choose. I'd recommend uninstalling if this is the way you feel.

Na this is just hard forum copium in crystal form. I'm a super biased solo queue main and survivors DCing ruins the game for everyone. It's not even a two way street. Killer DCs and the game is over, Survivor DCs and we're in a 10 minute slugfest or a 15 minute farmfest. Both are terrible.

I think a big part of why people don't like going against Knight is that he's such a rare killer to come across that most people don't have enough experience against him to know how to counter him.

I'll be honest, I dont love going against it. I just don't enjoy the whole run in a straight line, bait the loop for power then move to the next one. I don't love going against artist for the same reason. Like I'll have a grumble about it when I load in but I wont DC. Personally I like to play the loop with the killer and the challenge is in the mind games.

I also think content creators haven't helped with this, People get the mentality that every knight game is going to be a 45 minute wade through the trenches trying to break a 3 gen that was held from the start of the game. Doesn't excuses ruining the game for 4 other people though.

10 extra seconds on every gen, adding up to 50 extra seconds minimum.
Overcharge, Call of Brine and Eruption were literally the closest we've seen to an uncounterable meta.
DS was killed off, OTR doesn't stack with BT. If you get hit off of hook, it does nothing for you.
DH got heavily nerfed in that patch. No more DH for distance, no more OP DH.
This patch enabled ANY Killer to hold an unbreakable 3-gen even if they played horribly.
Oh, and they nerfed Survivors Sprint Burst after being hit, decreased the Killer's time to recover after a Basic Attack, sped up pallet breaking speeds etc etc

That and the knowledge creep over the last 7 years or so. I can't remember the last time I pulled off a cj or a dumb tech. Every one knows the mind games, Every TL is a 50-50.

I play killer very rarely, so my MMR is probably very low, I "lose" probably 10% of my games and I don't even play hard.

I play ghostface, thats about it. Maybe some spooky myers. The survivors aren't bad, its just when you have even rudimentary knowledge of how the game works its only a matter of time before you down someone.

This is how most of my survivor games go, You pump two gens in the first two hooks and then the killer plays to win (I'm ok with this) Which basically means one mistake on the survivor side and the death spiral begins.

In solo queue if you tunnel someone; everyone will get off gens to try and save that person from being tunneled out early, which then spirals the game further out of control.

With comms people can be a little more efficient, but once you've played survivor long enough you already know what's going to happen anyway.

Its basic pattern recognition, I can watch from a gen see a survivor run into a gym with the killer behind them and I can count down the time before they take a hit. I'm pretty bang on with it as well. When we play for realzys with comms not much gets said beyond what everyone already understands.

I'd also want to dive into what killers do better. There are several I could see doing pretty terrible on it while others would do better.

I got the time, Lets deep dive.

Trapper: Trapper can close entire rooms and stairways off with traps to secure hook states and completely cut off parts of the map.
Wraith: Can stealth behind walls and doorways, Much easier to not get light burned. Large deadzones midgame which make hit and run viable
Hillbilly: ehhh Billy kinda struggles on any indoor map. Though the long hallways can make things alot easier than say lerys
Nurse: Nurse go brrrrrrrr
Myers: Great map for his stronger builds and scratched mirror on any indoor map is fun
Hag: Same as trapper, She excels on maps with Z levels where you can cordon off entire areas, Small hallways make it much easier to have your traps triggered.
Doctor: Impossible skillcheck build, Static blast can hit nearly the entire map with the right add ons.
Huntress: Long hallways, Mostly low loops, Transition areas are mostly windows.
Bubba: Bubba is just mid on every map these days. Could use some love tbh
Freddy: Never played him, Can't really comment on it. Though i'd say being able to teleport upstairs on a whim is easier than having to walk up the stairs
Pig: Stealth killers excel on indoor maps, being able to sneak up to someone basically right next to a door is much easier than say ormond.
Clown: Transition areas are very narrow making bottles much easier to land than other maps. You can also predict where they're going to go based on the layout making bottles much more viable than other maps.
Spirit: Long hallways make prediction much simpler.
Legion: It's not their worst map by any stretch, but it's not good either. Getting value out of Frenzy on the map is incredibly difficult because it is sort of larger than it's raw square footage. If you start a Frenzy on the bottom floor and someone is on the 2nd, you can't chain to them. But you can hear them on KI so it's easy to bait yourself into going for Frenzy chains you can't actually get. Added by FFirebrandd
Plague: Long hallways, Low loops, Condensed areas of fountains
Ghosty: Indoor map, I love this and lerys on ghostface. Being able to sneak up on people makes his power so much better.
Demogorgan: I can't really say much, I don;t play him alot. I feel like being able to teleport between z levels gives his secondary the same kind of viability as freddy
Oni: Long hallways, flickable transition loops. The only downside is the window transitions but if you can predict them you can make the window and hit the survivor in your power before they make the loop.
Deathslinger: Best map for iri coin.
Pyramid head: Window transitions, straight paths between pallets and transitions
Blight: My mans running the hallways like a naughty schoolboy I've also seen some crazy hug techs pulled off there. I can't do it myself though lol
Twins: Being able to completely cordon off areas. Dowsey gives a really good demonstration as to why twins is strong here.
Trickster: I can't really comment. I feel like this is a bad map for trickster.
Nemesis: His zombies excel on indoor maps. Running around a corner being mugged by susan is interesting to say the least. I'd also say that how the pallet set ups work make his power easier than other maps to hit.
Cenobite: Being able to teleport Z levels, your power excels in tight areas.
Artist: This map is bad for artist as far as im concerned.
Sadako: Using the yellow rag add on you can make the entire map blind with TV placements.
Wesker: Long hallways, Window transitions high travel to return. Means you can vault with the survivor and be on them before they can get back to the window.
Knight: His power on this map is just obnoxious.
Snore Merchant: Again, Your power being able to cover two floors is just obnoxious. If you put your power at the top of the stairs survivors will be nearly exposed before they get to the drone.
