I do wonder if it doesn't use the head/neck for the projectile since it'd look weird from a first person perspective, the tentacle mouth gives you a clear idea of where you're shooting at in a way that globbing out your mouth wouldn't since your viewbox is not actually where the killer's head is. I think it's not a great compromise but I get the idea behind it I guess. Also I like how it kicks pallets instead of using the axe and IMO it should swing with the other hand and not use the axe at all for m1s. Would make it creepier to me, like it's holding an ax as a way to mimic how humans hold things but doesn't understand what it actually is or used for.

It's hilarious that he kicks pallets rather than using his axe, but uses his axe on gens.

Just a full compression down to his shoulders with a variety of random BoneCrunch.mp3.

Shaman Tank Spec posted:Wait but loving why? The Pig's traps were already a non-issue unless they were running that very specific addon combo and now they're even more useless. Well, the most likely explanation for why Pig's kill rate was so high when they released stats a few weeks ago is that the reverse bear traps absolutely murder players in the bottom 50% of MMR who are never going to be invested enough to look up what killer powers do or post about the game on forums where the rest of us can see them. So I can see them deciding to nerf them when they buff her stealth so she doesn't devour stupid newbies whole. Also, in my opinion the weird tentacle orifice stuff almost gels with rest of the Unknown's look, but it doesn't quite get there. Maybe if it was a bit more floppy in motion? I don't know, I'm not an artist. A bit more refinement could fix that, though, so hopefully some cosmetics will make it click.

I mean, the numbers could just be bullshit. I'm not saying they OWE us anything more in-depth than select count(*) from `match_outcomes` where kills > 2 but we're also talking about BHVR, so I wouldn't put it past them to straight up do the query wrong edit: "poo poo, that was boop rate. gently caress it, no one will notice" BrewingTea fucked around with this message at 17:06 on Feb 21, 2024 |

They just need to tell people "Look, 75% of the player base is in low to medium MMR, so we balance around that even though it's gonna make high MMR suck" rather than trying to seem like they're looking at both sides. But this is my problem with most games, I play Star Wars: The Old Republic which is a MMORPG with 90% of the player base doing only easy, story content and the people that want it to be a hard game keep shouting that they need to add more hard content...they just need to come out and say "Look, story players pay the bills, so we add content for them"

My main question is why they don't change the stat of the killer across MMR? Like High player level get better/boosted killer but since they are better player, it should be easier for them and lower-level player get easier killer to ease them in the game?

MMR is often mixed and the longer a queue runs the more the system ignores MMR. I guess they could pull the averaged MMR of the survivors in the lobby once you enter that part but it'd be really unsatisfying as the weak link survivor to run into a souped up killer that dumpsters you faster and it'd REALLY suck as a killer to find a bunch of limiters on your powers because you're fighting newer survivors, especially on killers that rely on precise muscle memory like Huntress. Furthermore people already have trouble memorizing everything in the game, wild variations in killer performance tied to invisible numbers you can't accurately look at would compound that badly on both sides. Also some killers can't be modified much. What do you change for Trapper with his Y/N traps? Time to escape? Billy's saw, do you just make his controls and speed really suck? Demogorgon's portals and lunge, just cut the distance randomly and steal a few max portals from him? All at random, invisible numbers on your end and from 4 other people.

Like High player level get better/boosted killer but since they are better player, it should be easier for them and lower-level player get easier killer to ease them in the game? There's absolutely no good reason for them to not give us more detailed stats. They've said they have access to them, and they can get them with SQL queries just fine. I can see the argument that they don't want to confuse players with segmented stats, but they could just offer the same worthless poo poo stats they just did, AND give links with more detailed stats. Knowing the kill rates for high MMR and low MMR wouldn't be perfect for the reasons Doomykins outlines, but so what? Giving separate kill rates for (let's say) below median MMR and above median MMR might not represent PURE low or high MMR games, but it would still be more useful than what we have. Equally while there might be situations where someone honestly died on the first hook because their cat accidentally disconnected their controller or their poo poo-rear end teammates didn't bother rescuing them, it would still give more useful data especially against the killers where it's become a meme to disconnect against them always. I guess it could be typical BHVR thinking, or this might be a useful smoke screen. They don't want to spend the time and effort to buff Freddy, so they let us think that he's seriously one of the deadliest killers in the game, instead of "he mows through people without functional brains and / or less than 20 games like a hot knife through butter but is a complete joke against anyone who knows even a bit what they're doing".

They also have access to stats related to addons because they regularly buff/nerf based around which ones are overperforming. I don't want Myers' overall killrate, I want to see his killrate for all games that *don't* involve the addons that let you instagib a survivor from full health at 0 hooks.

I have to imagine they'll be pulling from the TV show over the games for the Castlevania crossover, so I wouldn't be surprised if the killer was Issac or Drolta. Big D would be hard to convert into a killer in either form tho- if they pull from the games I figure some other series mainstay like Medusa or Death is far more likely.
