Johnny is to OP

[T.Wat-TheMFphoenix]

Does anyone else struggle with outrunning Johnny? When the game first dropped I was able to at least use my sprint to outrun him, now, he keeps up with me and I can’t gain any ground whatsoever. And his lunge distance. They said they nerfed it but it’s almost like they increased the distance. He needs to be nerfed down.

[CelkyN6]

He can attack while running, so if he gets close to you you'll keep getting hit. That's literally the only advantage he has over other family members though and he's not overpowered, you're just not supposed to let him get close to you in the first place (especially out in the open).

[Infrasound]

he is strong not sure why so many people say he's bad, he's really good if you're bad and open the basement doors early. You need to unlock all the doors so you aren't stuck with one way to go before grandpa wakes up. As in, im unlocking but NOT opening this door, this second one etc.

Johnny doesn't offer control like hitchhiker and cook. His ability is very weak but his slashes hurt and have an incredible range. 360s can ♥♥♥♥ up his aim a lot.

[Yuu9]

He has clear weakness in that he cant pass through gap and crawlspace.
Dont think about playing tag in a wide-open place without using anything.

And his attack-rush speed has indeed been nerfed.
But as a result, the drawback of "rushing too fast when attacking and passing by the victim" has also been removed.

I honestly find Hitchhiker more OP. They should remove Hitch from being able to be an offensive and defensive character simultaneously, with his level 3 trap doing bleed damage he can take off about 60% health even if you use a bonespike to get out of trap quickly. Johnny should either have traps or be able to go through gaps instead of Hitch.

They have nerfed the lunge. Not all the hits that slashed before are slashing now. Although, the speed tech is still there.

He is stronger and faster in open area. If you don't have Choose Flight to run the Main Road on Family House, what are you even hoping for. All the other times, just go through a gap and you're good.

yet he can be countered by a perk stop crying

[T.Wat-TheMFphoenix]

nah, y'all clearly haven't seen what me and my buddy deal with. there is no reason Johnny should be able to hit you when you are roughly 4-5 character models away from him (meaning if you were to line up 4+ players, he would still be able to hit the farthest person)
and when Im talking about his speed, he should not be able to keep up with someone using the perk that refreshes the stamina when it runs out all the way, he is able to keep up with someone who has that perk at tier 3. not even leather face while revving his saw and sprinting is able to keep up with people using that perk. he can catch up if the distance is long enough, but johnny is always on your butt no matter what.

ULTRA MEGA SKILL ISSUE

[TheFinalDude]

Johnny kills me in like 3 hits if I don't have toughness up. Jason didn't even kill in 3 hits and he carries an Axe and ♥♥♥♥ lol.

[gab]

the fact he can track footprints anytime anywhere is a bit ridiculous to my opinion

but jason can instant kill by 1 m2

[Axx]

Johnny should only get 1 swing before his stamina drains all the way. His tracking ability should also only have one use per match.

[nod for kiss]

worst family member in the game lol

[King Ballsmear]

He's the worst family member in the game but is currently bugged so he gets a guaranteed kill on you if you aren't near a gap or barricade. He'll be nerfed soon.
