We really need a reset on how these pallet changes are being implemented. Before the first round of pallet density changes a few weeks ago, most survivor players merely wanted additional pallets and places to loop in two realms: Haddonfield and Decimated Borgo. The idea behind this was to get rid of areas with nearly no pallets at all, such as the middle of the street in Haddonfield, for example. Apart from these two realms, most maps either needed to not be touched (ie. MacMillan Estate and Forsaken Boneyard) or have some very minor changes/additions to pallet density and fillers (ie. Backwater Swamp). I'm sure most killer players would also appreciate Gideon Meat Plant being looked at for a removal of some pallets.
Instead, pallets were added pretty much added everywhere, making nearly every realm that was touched much more difficult for killer players, and at least from what I have seen, mostly disliked by the playerbase. I was glad to see the devs were looking for feedback on those and was hoping they would simply scale back on the number of pallets and pay attention to how pallets can chain strong loops together. Now, with this update, we have swung in the complete opposite side of things, where smaller filler loops have been decimated, with a large majority being 50/50 loops, which is incredibly disliked by survivor players and rather boring for killers. On a personal note, I'm rather miffed at how this change was brought about to the live patch without testing in the PTB, especially with the emphasis in recent dev livestreams about how the PTB is for testing and giving feedback.
In my opinion, as I stated in the first paragraph, we need to just reset the pallet update back to what it was before the first round weeks ago. The filler loops that have been altered need to be changed back, and the pallet density in all affected maps should be reverted. Once we're at least back at that state of the game, then it would be much easier to look at changes in each realm/map rather than making blanket changes to the majority of the game.
