Walk backwards and you have a LOT of control over where the survivor goes actually. Unless the object is significantly large, you aren't going to be able to use it to break the chain. That's like majority of the map, and even on objects that are pretty large he can strafe around the sides and swing early, still hitting you. I've done it. I've had it done to me. If survivors are breaking your chain that much you have to be doing something wrong. Survivors do not have much control over it as you claim.
https://forum.deadbydaylight.com/en/discussion/comment/1220578#Comment_1220578
The differences are:
1) If Huntress hits you, then you just go down. There is no feeling of "I can still do something" because that's just the end of it. With Deathslinger you get the feeling like you should be able to do something, but you really can't. So it might as well just down you instead. The only time I've seen survivors have a lot of control when speared is with macros, which is basically cheating anyways. No human player can fight the spear like that.
2) Huntress can't throw a hatchet instantly, and her projectiles are large enough that she can't snipe you through the tiny holes in the wall (barring the wall clipping glitch). Deathslinger can aim and shoot instantly before you can react, and he can hit you even when you should be fully protected by cover. A Deathslinger with good aim will spear you every time, and there isn't much you can do to avoid it, or avoid getting hit after he spears you.
He is basically just like old Legion. He spears you, you get hit. The chances of you avoiding the hit are very slim, even if there are objects in the way he can walk backwards and pull you away from them. You're only hope is that there is some nook you can get caught in where he can't manipulate your movement.

The thing that separates Slinger and old Legion is the fact that old Legion didn't take any skill to actually be rewarded with a hit or down.

A bad Slinger has a large amount of counter play. I will say, a very good DS doesn't have much counter play, but still does have a bit to him. Old Legion just had none. A good Slinger reminds me of a very good Nurse or Oni in terms of counter play. These 3 don't have much counter play when the player is very good at them.

That's the exact reason I actually do believe that he is fine though. It requires the player to be very good at what they do and fully understand the character they're playing. In this game very good players aren't very common. This is why I believe Slinger not having much counter play is fine. Because it takes a very good player to reach that point. Old Legion didn't require any amount of skill to reach that point so every player you faced could down you. This isn't the case with Slinger. A bad Slinger will get pummeled.

If you were to actually nerf him right now because he lacks a good amount of counter play when he's used by a very good player, he'd be gutted. Any indication of him shooting would make him a horrid killer. He takes plenty of time already to be alright with.

Depends. If you're stuck in a straight line with nowhere to dodge he's amazing, but on a jungle gym, in the shack, or even in the open, a good survivor can dodge it with relative ease.

The thing that makes Demo such a good killer is that he can get hits at Jungle Gyms and Shack with ease if played correctly. His Shred is a very powerful chase tool if the player behind him understands it.

"You can't use niche things as an excuse for people who ruin the game for others because they have a bad temper."
Niche things? XD You're reaching hard with that one. Creating your builds, spending bloodpoints, choosing rift challenges.... all these are niche?
Your ealize niche means that these things only appeal to a small number of people. Are you honestly saying only a small number of people do these things? Brilliant.

"Are you honestly saying only a small number of people do these things."

On a consistent basis, yes. A very small number of people consistently rotate their perks and outfits.

"Yes, it is temporary. But not being able to play the game for upwards of 25 minutes because someone couldn't control their temper isn't good or right."

You listing secondary things you can do in the game doesn't change the fact that it isn't okay to ruin the core gameplay. The large majority of the people don't play the game specifically for the archives, or changing their outfits, or changing their build every game. They play it because they want to actually play against another living being and try to out play each other. You stopping them from doing that for the upwards of 20 minutes because you had a little temper tantrum isn't alright.

Yeah. I guess you can spend bloodpoints only during a match. And you can only customize your character during a match. OH! You probably can only visit the Rift to pick challenges or listen/watch lore snippets. And of course, you can only create your builds during a match as well.
Maybe you should about how much more there is to playing the game than running around in a match?

"And you can only customize your character during a match."

A very niche thing. Not everyone has 456 outfits that they change every single time they queue.

"You probably can only visit the Rift to pick challenges or listen/watch lore snippets."

I want to play the game, not sit and get into the lore. Maybe if you could do this while queuing, you'd have a point. But it doesn't pass queue time.

"And of course, you can only create your builds during a match as well."

The majority of the player base isn't switching builds every time they queue. Many stick with one specific rotation.

You can't use niche things as an excuse for people who ruin the game for others because they have a bad temper.

They cannot really do anything about it so they do not have a choice but I will say this. Kindred does what comms can do at a price you have to be hooked. Object of obsession shows locations as well at the price of revealing team.
So why try to justify the free perk of telling each other where the killer is going when there is no downside to it? Its clearly an exploit if u can't already tell by reading the perks and how it has something to balance it out. But go ahead survivor main. Be oblivious to the fact that while the killer chases me I'm telling my team to rush gens while I stall and loop the ######### outta him/her with 0 repercussions

"In video games, an exploit is the use of a bug or glitches, game system, rates, hit boxes, speed or level design etc. by a player to their advantage in a manner not intended by the game's designers."

As they've said before, they have 0 problem with it. So it is intended to be something you can do. What would be the point of SWF and playing the game with your friends if you actually couldn't talk to them?

Talking with friends and playing the game with them isn't an exploit, no matter how much you want it to be.

My problem with Freddy is just how rewarding he is for how little he actually requires. Snares have huge potential. If they had a bit more cooldown, it would force players to learn specific placements, know the slowdown timing and have to actually outsmart the survivor to land a hit. Currently though, its spam and go. And there isn't really anything the survivor can do to actually outplay that. I wish he took more skill to play because it's annoying just seeing such potential go to waste with his power and noobs just trap spamming and being rewarded for doing nothing.

No they're not. They're just ending the match or delaying you. Only you (or your internet blinking out) can stop you from playing the game.

You missed the part where the queues are insanely long. You finally get a game after 5 minutes just to have a game end very prematurely. So yes, to a certain extent he is stopping you from playing a normal game. You take 5 minutes to load, 2 minutes to get into the game, and then play for a minute or two just to be DC'd on and not actually be able to fully play a normal game. So then you go back to a 5+ minute queue and repeat the cycle hoping you don't get DC'd on again. In total, this can pretty much stop you from playing the actual game for upwards of 15+ minutes. I've had this happen to me so many times. When players of both sides DC, everyone suffers.

No he hasn't. because you go right back in the queue to continue playing the game. All the killer did was end a match early. Youd on't stop playing the game until you actually stop playing the game.

Sitting in a queue for 5 minutes just to have a killer prematurely end the game is a pretty bad experience. He is to a certain extent stopping you from playing the game.

Out of curiosity, were you expecting me to just blindly take your word for it after I already mentioned that I went and looked through his youtube channel to see if there was a number of videos indicating a plague 4k win streak? Sorry to disappoint you, but I checked out his twitch videos and SURPRISE, pretty much identical to his youtube channel. I'm pretty sure you just don't understack clickbait. I highly doubt he was ever honestly claiming he had 116 4Ks with Plague in a row; he was just drawing attention to his video.

His Plague games were somewhat far back, but I definitely disagree that was clickbait. The man is dedicated to getting 4ks with any killer he plays. Awhile back, I watched him very frequently and he's had streaks of upwards of 5 months without letting anyone escape via exit gate. 116 is realistic for someone like him who is so insanely dedicated to getting 4ks.

Are you serious right now? The video isn't even a montage. I knew it was just a clickbait title the moment I realized that, but just to make absolutely sure, I went and looked at the guy's channel. He doesn't have any other game in this "streak" posted. He was just exaggerating how well he does with Plague and used a clickbait title. And even if he was actually trying to be serious about this, this wouldn't be anything close to valid proof of over 100 games in a row with 4Ks.
By the way, for all the ignorant people in this thread calling the OP bait, this video's title is what bait actually is. I'm amazed at how many people have no clue what bait actually means and just throw the phrase around whenever they don't like a post as if they're actually making a point instead of making themselves seem ignorant.

No he isn't. If you watch FunGooses' streams that's where you'll find him making his streaks. He isn't lying about what he does and it's entirely there for you to watch if you'd like.

I most likely will because the Devs are constantly catering to killers. Survivors have received nothing but nerfs for the last 6 months and yet Killers just continue to tell us to stop crying.. to "git good".. "survivors still to OP!". Tell us.. when is it going to be good enough? When you can down us in under 20 seconds? When you only need 1 hook instead of 3? When all of the pallets and windows are removed from the game? When we lose our ability to run? When the Devs give you the ability to see us anywhere on the map permanently?
Survivor Nerfs
Patch 3.3.1 - Insta Heals nerfed, Green Medkit charges nerfed from 24 to 16 charges.
Patch 3.4.0 - Balance Landing Nerfed to remove staggert reduction while exhausted.
Patch 3.5.0/3.5.2 - Lery's Rework (Survivor Nerf to hide totems, remove windows and add more unsafe pallet)
February 10 - Disconnect Penalties - Forces Survivors to have to play through matches, no matter how toxic the killer wants to be.
Patch 3.6.0 - Survivor Nerfs
1) Survivors can no longer sabotage Bear Traps
2) Dropped survivor wiggle progression reduced from 33% to 25%
3) Toolboxes Nerfed
4) Saboteur nerfed (cooldown added) & Hooks respawn faster
5) Addons nerfed to disappear at the end of each match
6) Autohaven Wreckers: Fixed an issue that allowed Survivors to use Dead Hard to get onto tires near a crane (Yet killers can still do it with Lunge)z
7) Breakable Walls added
Dev Update April 2020 - Survivor Nerf - Reduced repair speeds when working with other survivors, maps reworked to prevent survivors from being able to actually escape from a killer.

I think your list is pretty good. I like how you gave all the killers little attribute ratings as well. Personally the one I disagree with is GhostFace. I think people tend to overrate him. His power is basically just turning off his TR in my eyes. The red glow hiding is accessible to every killer through moonwalking, and if you're already in a chase the hidden TR won't be serving much purpose in my eyes. I don't think his power warrants placement far above the likes of Demogorgon, Doc, or the Slinger. They all have a chase power that can be used to zone, or get hits that a normal M1 killer like GF wouldn't have got. The stealth is also another factor for me because of how unreliable it is.

But, this is just my viewpoint on it. Nice list :)

Have you ever played the game as 4 man swf? 80-90% escape rates is not that uncommon when you are somewhat decent at the game. Balance gets made around solo survivor and not swf. There goes your balance right out of the window, tell me how infinites like the one on sanctum are fine.
In literally several thousands hours of gameplay have I encountered the bug you write about once. Do we count getting stuck as well? As it results in the same in addition to everything you mentioned.
So what you are saying is there are not biased they are just incompetent?

Unless the killer is garbage and you're sweating your complete ass off as a whole, nobody is escaping 90% of the time in SWF. If you're an actual decent killer, you'll still be able to win against them or walk out of there with a draw. The balance of the game is fine if you're actually good at what you do. Players of this game just always want the easy way out. Just to say as well, we just got a screenshot of possibly one of many infinites that are now being changed in the upcoming patch, so that's good to see.

I've encountered this bug many times as a survivor. Which is why I'm not a huge fan of DC penalties at the moment when there are still quite a few bugs that don't allow you to actually play the game.

At the end of the day, they are slow to many of the bugs in the game. But there are a plethora of them. It boils down to them needing more people to iron out the bugs or giving themselves an extra month to clean everything up. It isn't bias.

"Yeah you try to defend bugfixing with gameplay balance that makes alot of sense."

Gameplay balance would literally be a factor if the devs actually were biased, so yes, I will use it as an example as to why they aren't biased.

Here's a fun bug for you on the survivor side. Not being able to do anything at all! This bug has been around for quite a while. You can't vault, can't do a generator, can't drop pallets, nothing. That's pretty game breaking.

And like I said, if they were biased, game play balance would be directly impacted because of said bias. So it definitely can and should be used.

Cool, the rest is fine then? Take a look for how long they are in the game.

You're here trying to make an argument about bias when they're banning and fixing bugs that make the game unplayable. There's a huge difference. Also there are plenty of survivor bugs still in the game that haven't been fixed in awhile. They're biased to no side, regardless of what you think. Like I said, people strongly hold onto only the negatives, never the positives. If they were biased killers would be all C tier or worse.
