Medullah posted:How hard is it to go to a jigsaw box? The game does a lovely job of explaining mechanics to new players so to someone just playing it's a white highlighted thing and who knows what that means. Does the clock work similarly in the way Jigsaw box work? Like, you hav a chance it doesn't work and you have to trek the entire map just to die horribly?

No, it works, people just need to go to it and click. But I'm telling you...you guys are thinking from the lens of experienced players, when I started I didn't know that you had to go to white glowing things unless I googled it.

Also the only real consequence of being asleep vs Freddy (well, besides marginally speeding up his teleports) is not hearing a terror radius, you can still tell he's coming by his stupid lullaby Not that the game tells you that either I realize, but they couldn't even give him proper stealth as a gimmick

If the new killer has a complicated power with survivor interaction were probably going to see sadako level kill rates, survivors really don't want to learn killers at this point. Same with Freddy being so high, there's just a distaste of survivors wanting to do anything other than gens and loops

bhvr has confirmed that the new killer doesn’t use the names of any culturally sensitive supernatural critters. Now, given the analog horror slant, the original hypothesizing may have just been totally off base, or maybe the killer has some elements of those things but doesn’t go as far to take from them wholesale.

A mimic killer would likely be too strong or toothless to balance, but those first couple games where the guy helping you do a gen starts demanding sugar would be terrifying

I get that SWFs on comms would ruin that kind of killer, but SWFs on comms ruin most killers so that's hardly a reason not to do it

And then nerfed into the ground two weeks later because low MMR solo groups complained.

The only way I could see "Oh, poo poo, that survivor was the killer all along!" working would be if the killer could somehow teleport to and possess an existing survivor. Like they pull out a teacup and start rubbing a spoon around the rim and BAM one of the survivors is now in the upside-down or whatever But if we're talking about a whole "Hello fellow kids!" situation, I don't see that being doable at all. On the plus side, I don't believe that asking survivors to stay away from their teammates and only trust them to do the bare minimum would affect solo queue any more than it would SWFs Pants Donkey posted:One silver lining is that solo survivors would finally stop clustering on one gen when the game starts. It's not my fault that one Daily requires 180 SECONDS of co-op action! Do you know how many matches that will take?? BrewingTea fucked around with this message at 19:24 on Feb 18, 2024 |

Being facecamped from exactly outside range while the other survivor teabags me in basement. Oh, and the other two survivors killed themselves on hook. What a cool and good game. rydiafan fucked around with this message at 06:17 on Feb 19, 2024 |

I'm kinda glad for the nerf to that playstyle, honestly. It was too easy to just tunnel the poo poo out of someone once you had a trap on them by following them around to the boxes while ignoring everyone else. The trap timer change is a bit unnecessary but whatever. Ambush and crouch speed buffs are extremely welcome. e2: I don't understand why Huntress is getting buffed. She was fine where she was, now she's going to be everywhere and even easier to hook camp with her. Relyssa fucked around with this message at 17:01 on Feb 19, 2024 |

It is funny the Pig buffs came with nerfs. I mean, I agree that camping puzzle boxes was not fun, but the increased trap timer feels unnecessary.

There's two main reasons I can think of. 1) Her kill rates were surprisingly low in the stats they showed off last week. Even when you account for her being a killer all the new players try, it's kind of weird. 2) She's a character everyone has and everyone enjoys, and you want to give characters like that a little walking around money every now and then because everyone is going to enjoy it.

About time The Blight was buffed. Although knowing BHVR, somehow this buff will end up being a massive nerf and also bug out the Knight, making them killswitch his rear end for 3 months again.

Those Huntress buffs are never getting out of the PTB and she'll probably have one hatchet by default just to be careful Twitter's already yelling about it and the PTB hasn't started yet

I know Otz accused BHVR of being "unambitious" right after they released their 2024 roadmap, but do they seem willing to experiment and take risks. You don't get social media to blow up by thinking too small.
