@Orion But I am not talking about punishment. I'm talking about precautionary measures (in terms of information) to help players make the right decision.
The filter (and chat-ban) is not about correcting the wrong-doers, but to protect the other players.

Everyone knows about laws (i.e.: they have information), police, and sentences. They still commit crimes. The same principle applies here.

And come on, do you really think people don't know that sending death threats isn't OK? They just don't care because they don't think anything will happen to them (see the link I gave you).

@Orion Source on that please. I've studied some behavioural science and this doesn't resonate with what I have read.

Deter would-be criminals by using scientific evidence about human behavior and perceptions about the costs, risks and rewards of crime.

Seriously, just think about it for a second. If punishment worked as a deterrent, why are there so many prisoners per capita in the USA, which boasts ######### like Guantanamo Bay?

@miaasma This is a great feature indeed, but I stand by my point that the system is reactive, rather than proactive. If you engage the players directly with the guidelines and potential consequences, at least they know where BHVR draws the line before walking over it. This could make players think twice before abusing the communication.

Research shows that neither the severity nor the knowledge of punishment serve as deterrents to crime. Only the perception that you'll get caught does. I'm guessing breaking a game's rules follows more or less the same trend.

Tanks for the advice! I already knew about the collapsing feature. This doesn't really address the core issue, though.
If BHVRs stance on bad behavior is more known from inside of the game, it could make post-game harassment less frequent. Today there are no readily available guidelines unless you actually visit the forums.

Just report and ignore. Report and ignore. Either they'll realize that being ######### is neither funny nor socially acceptable, or they'll move on to another game that will ban them as well.

Total area of the screen is 100%.

Middle of the screen is a line - this serves as a reference point.

They increased the detection area by 4% on the left side of the line, then another 4% on the right side of the line, for a total of 8%.

If "N" is the area that does not allow for detection, "Y" is the area that does, and "|" is the middle:

[NNNNNNNNNY|YNNNNNNNNN] (original, there are 20 "slots", so each "slot" is 5%)

[NNNNNNNNYY|YNNNNNNNNN] (5% increase in area, but only on the left side of the screen)

[NNNNNNNNYY|YYNNNNNNNN] (5% increase in area, this time on the right side of the screen, for a total of a 10% increase)

Is that clear enough?

No, but it does sound logical. I'm not sure what logic sounds like, but since you can perform meaningless and skilless tasks ad infinitum for points (see the basement example someone else provided), it's logical that points should not be a measure of skill.

Just because you personally don't use that add-on a lot doesn't mean others do not.
If people are complaining about it, they must face it a lot.

Not really, no. If they were facing it that much, they'd take a perk to help them counter it. When I suggested it, however, the response was basically "Why would I take that perk to counter this one thing?". To me, that says they're not facing it nearly as often as they claim.

Doctor doesn't get slowed anymore when changing modes, they changed that a long time ago.

Doesn't get slowed beyond 110%, no, but he is slowed to 110% when switching from punishment to treatment, since his movement speed is altered from 115% to 110%. But I admit, that could've been worded better.

They should take away bloodpoints from killers that camp who are not engaged in a chase at the hook. Also, it would be negated if the gen number to repair is below 3 and they are near the hook. Nothing you can do about that.
camping is what it is ... but killers shouldn’t be rewarded for it. I mean we get penalized if we don’t get two off the hook. Hit them too.

The killer is doing nothing for two minutes. That's the penalty.

@samination said:
Samination here. The Ghostface Parody from a year ago was going to be a spin-off series where I brought in other licensed killers such as Chucky, Jason, etc. Sadly, it didn't do very well and was ignored by the developers so I dropped the idea. Ghostface (and Jason mind you) was added to the Killers Meeting ever since. There was a gag when Legion was introduced that he was their Ghostface knockoff, which I believe he was. Much like Hillbilly was their Leatherface knockoff until they actually added Leatherface.
Regardless, Ghostface will be added back in the next parody.

Correct, because as I just explained, the concept of death does not apply to the Entity's Realm, but the standard laws of physics seem to apply.
Not sure why this is hard to understand.

It's really not hard to understand. The Entity's realms has certain rules, one of them being Newtonian mechanics, but they're not always valid, which makes no sense.

No, legit, not in this case. When a general consensus is in agreement on a particular thing, it becomes a factual problem. Stop, you're not going to win this one.

So tell me, how many humans must agree on something before reality shifts and incorporates those opinions of beings who are less than specks of specks of dust in the universe into factual statements? How many before the laws of logic and reasoning cease to apply?

Opinion becomes truth when it's evident that the majority feels the same way.

Argumentum ad populum is a fallacy. Opinions, by definition, cannot be objective, and they certainly don't become truth if enough people have them.

purely opinion, they are still by far one of my favorite killers, and while this echo chamber of a forum that contains under 10% of the player base doesnt indicate it, if you actually pay attention to some of the less toxic streamers, and just the game in general, they are pretty popular overall. I didnt even like them before, because of the playstyle they encouraged, but now that thats been removed, and experienced legions focus more on the pressure playstyle, all is well.

"Annoying to go against" is also purely opinion, but you had no problem expressing it as an absolute truth.

it literally was, the thing that was adressed, was their insane ability to just tunnel and chase down a singular survivor. Their mods need to be fixed, other than that, they are in a pretty good spot, and see pretty regular play at high ranks.

Unfortunately, they also addressed what made the Legion fun to play as. And by "addressed", I mean they nerfed every single thing that made the Legion fun to play as.

Despite what some people may say, DCing is bannable. The bans for DCing are handled automatically, reports do nothing to expedite the process. However, the threshold seems to be fairly high. It will be lowered once dedicated servers come around.

On the one hand, there is a sort of precedence for this with the Shape at EWI. On the other hand, the Shape has a fluorescent mask that makes him very visible, whereas the Pig actually becomes somewhat stealthy when crouched. I'd say put this in a PTB and see how it goes.

What I mean by that is, if they don't come to rescue you that could mean the killer could be around you, looking for other survivors while they see you're flapping 3 times at a time, they know you want to waste his time, meaning they can continue doing gens

That's what spamming the interaction already means - don't unhook. The "why" is irrelevant, as long as people actually follow the instructions.

Again, there's no need to complicate this. Either it's safe to unhook or it's not. If it is, they should come to unhook. If it's not, they shouldn't and should instead work on generators.
