It read like a flat list of buffs on paper. A ranged 110 can now 115 and M1 freely and he has laser guided knives for quick ultimates? How does he not just double damage everybody he sees, sounds like Huntress without wind up! But somehow he's weaker.

Considering the average player insisting he's stronger maybe he got buffed against potatoes that can't loop.

They hit him in area that already MADE him bad- making damage stick. They added two more required hits and shaved a third of the time before damage starts to fall off- doesn't matter how much better you are at getting more knives to land unless you're getting ENOUGH knives to land, and that is so much harder to do before falloff starts- just about any decent high obstacle or jungle gym anymore is enough to start the falloff now, it feels like. It's a good thing Trickster got the speed update because now he feels much more like an M1 killer with a power to take advantage of large open spaces.

He probably feels stronger if people aren't specifically playing against his knives but the new changes make his knives much easier to play around if you're actually trying.

He was absolutely busted on PTB, and then they just smacked with him the nerf stick after the fact with no further testing.

what a humorous anecdote.
They buffed his knife throwing speed and stability, nerfed a bunch to compensate, then nerfed the knife throwing speed without undoing any of the compensation so he ended up overall WAY weaker. It's genuinely sad because he used to be one of my favorite killers to play (backwater swamp and haddonfield do not interact) and now he feels so much insanely worse I think he's going to end up on my shortlist of "reroll their daily" killers along with Billy, Pig, Pyramid Head, Twins, Knight and Singu.

Nonsense. I have not yet begun to defile myself.

I...don't think I understand Chucky's dash. Had someone standing at the exit, charged them, managed to go all the way around them without hitting anything and swinging off to their side. I impressed myself with that one, how does that even happen

If his knife damage didn't fall off so fast, I could see the current Trickster working as an M1 killer with a zoning tool? You plink away with knives as you try to get around a loop, and either that makes the survivor play sloppily enough that you can walk into them or it lasts long enough for you to pop your finale and hose them down. But it does fall off fast, so I just can't see a time you would actually use these knives as-is. They need to buff something.

the turn radius is impacted by both in AND out of game mouse sensitivity, which I think is true of a lot of killer dashes like Oni and Billy. I honestly think Billy’s rework is going to make him no longer rely on curves or bake the mechanics into the kit itself so they can fix that but of engine weirdness without making Billy complete trash.

In the TCM patch notes they noted they added a system to increase the weighting of maps so they appear more often.

They didn't weight the new map any higher.

I like the game, but it is plagued by boneheaded decisions. Why advertise that you made a system to increase the weighting of maps but then not use it on the new map? I hope the game survives despite itself.

Every killer that disappeared I bought with shards. I asked them to provide me a list of everything I bought with shards, since as far as I can tell there is no record I can look up for that. They have not replied yet to that request.

I still have the killers for chapters I bought in the PS Store, and I still have the killers I bought with auric cells as far as I can tell. Every killer I bought with shards is gone, and that's pretty much how I have spent the vast majority of my shards since 2018 or so?

Which killers? Only thing I can think of is maybe you're misremembering a bit, since any licensed killer can't be bought with shards.

None of them are licensed killers. I still have my licensed killers like Pyramid and Pinhead.

I'm missing Trickster, Blight, Clown, Vommy Mommy, Twins, Gunslinger, Legion, Artist and I think Gong Show.

I'm trying to remember offhand, as I'm at work now. There's probably 1 or 2 more. Most or all of them prestiged to 3 for the perks.

Something's weird with mine too. Not anywhere on that level but steam is saying I don't own the 80's pack and the charity pack when I absolutely did.

Saw a story on reddit where someone complained about dlc missing and were told it was family sharing (when they hadn't) and the ticket was closed. Really grimey.

This exactly what they just did to me.

I can find a number of cases of people saying the same or similar things in reddit. Both in PS and Xbox. Based on previous cases I think I may be screwed.

Yep, but the things I bought via PSN are all still there. So are the purchases from Auric Cells as far as I can tell. Only shard purchases vanished.

I don't know how, but they've broken Huntress. Her hatchets are thrown with a noticeable delay, and don't fly straight, and instead fly left. It broke Otz to the point where he just rage quit his stream.

I’ve only been watching Otz live for a couple months, but I’m pretty sure that’s the angriest he’s gotten in recent memory and the first time I’ve ever seen him rage quit.

Oh no secret, I just love when luck makes the killer overlook a hook and you manage to get away. Not even sure the hook blindness even made a difference that time, but the wiggle bonus sure did. He was taking me to the basement and misjudged how much time he had. Ran out of that gate with only a few seconds of the end game timer left to spare.

E: so far in the patch thread on reddit only one person has asked if something changed with Huntress' hatchets. As nice as it is to see Otz rage, if its a problem you'd hope more people would say so
