I personally think people are overreacting to it atm. Like yeah, there’s some scary stuff in here, but there’s also the potential for this to be an amazing patch if BHVR funnels out the problematic stuff properly when going to live. I’m personally holding off on my thoughts until the live notes.
I agree with this mindset. It's best to wait and see the actual live notes with all the perk changes and such but I do think it is okay to have these other smaller ideas. Not like big feelings of just seeing "OH ANTI-TUNNEL AND ANTI-SLUG KILLER IS DEAD BLAAAGH!" because that's just stupid tbh
Mhm. The only things I see being annoying on the anti slug is the 90 seconds being cumulative instead of each down and the basekit Tenacity. As for the anti tunnel, a lot of how this is gonna play out is what numbers does the hooking benefits give. I will agree the punishments should probably go
as those pretty much just punish killer for playing the game. The hook update delay thing sounds a bit annoying as well, but imo that sounds like the lesser evil atm. Id rather take that than not be allowed to use slowdown for the rest of the game because I made the correct choice.
We’ll see what happens once all this goes live. It has potential to be great, but depending on how BHVR handles the changes from ptb to live, this can also be a disaster.
I feel like this is the AFK crows situation again, the anti-hide scenario again. Too much being done in one patch.
Pace yourselves, DbD team! Just make sure to protect the player base! Your game saves lives.
I'm sorry but I don't think we need to see the PTB to know you shouldn't punish one side for successfully getting someone out too soon, especially when it may not even be their fault and could just have been the other side being bad...
On that front, I agree. The punishments should definitely not make it in, we don’t need the PTB for that conclusion.
