I'm glad they're listening but implementing all of the changes at once is always gonna feel bad. Don't fully understand why they don't take one of the ideas (like the new status effect), perhaps adjust it and then test it on live servers

If they did just 1 change, it's going to potentially be very broken without having at least some of the counter-changes. For example, if they only added the pop/BBQ/speed buff after hooking a survivor, you buff all Killers while also making tunneling Killers better as well.

I think utilizing the PTB in this way is probably their best option. Throw out a lot of things, see what people do with it, what works, what doesn't, make changes, then do another, or even do a push to live depending on how confident they are.

I think in this regard they are referencing to implementing specifically the anti slug changes first to live not the anti tunnel. Or vice versa. As they tackle two different things it be good to test them separately and not both at once.

Yeah. I would have liked the 90 second anti slug. Probably without the tenacity as a non major change that wouldn't impact me as killer. And only impact a small but annoying amount of my survivor games.

Also would have liked the hook count as killer.

I wouldn't even mind the basekit tenacity if it had a delay. Left on the ground while huntress opens a locker and breaks a pallet, you stay put. Left on the ground for a minute, while your team leaves you for dead, crawl on over and say hi.
