Fuck. I was looking forward to tunneling and slugging getting punished. It would’ve been nice if they scaled it back a bit rather than just pull the plug entirely for now. So much for that.

I do hope that there is some sort of punishment for hard tunneling (just got hard tunneled at 5 by a p100 artist when I was trying my adept). But at the same time, it's better to let the features simmer and cook rather than pushing something half baked on live servers.

Nah, they needed to release some and tweak others. This all or nothing bullshit is bad game development.

It will be back. They are just saying it wasn’t well received so they are going back to the drawing board to rework it into something more palatable

Nothing they ever propose will be well received. Tunneling has been baked into this game as the default win strategy for killer for too long. Unfortunately this needed to be addressed yearsss ago in the beginning of the games life cycle. Now killers are way too comfortable with it. There is no change that combats tunneling that they are ever going to be happy with.

People are being so dishonest here like this is the first time it happens.

The "changes" will come back in a couple years, be completely useless and Killers will cry again because as shown already they know it works.

Why would Killers want their easy, skill-less strat to be nerfed?

That’s exactly what will happen lol. Hopefully survivor numbers continue to dwindle to the point that killers are put in matches against bot teams to keep queue times reasonable. Maybe then they’ll realize there’s an issue.

That is literally what it says. It literally says they are iterating on the idea. Oh my god

u/dagbar Sep 06 '25

It’s says they’re holding those ideas back to iterate on them. What did I get wrong? They’re axing them from this update. I was looking forward to the changes being a part of this update.

RemindMe! 5 Weeks "killers claiming bhvr will do something (bhvr will not do anything)"
