Hitchhiker every game and too strong

[JohnyX]

Hitchhiker is pretty annyoing guy. He should not be able to attack nonstop. His stamina should go down quickly by hitting. He can chase you and hit you all day long. There should be some space for another family member.
It is pretty boring to see him every bloody game.

Hitchhiker is pretty mid he's only good for setting up traps

[diazepamxx]

It's not the traps, it's his movement speed with Scout and Wire frame. I play Hitch and I know that this is absurdly OP. I went against a Hitch who I was circling around the well and he was hitting me across the hole lmao.

It was not about trap but his speed / attacking nonstop.

Problem is also that we see rarely Johnny or Sissy. HH stamina drain after hit should be more significant. He is currently beast.

Problem is this is a game that relies entirely on guarding objectives so naturally it makes sense that the only two characters in the game that can delay are meta. Sissy got dunked on when she got nerfed so she is nowhere near as strong as she used to be unless you dump like every skill point you have into savagery her attacks are laughable. And johnny just doesn't bring anything to the table. The only thing he can do is locate people more reliably then cook that is all. Johnny is arguably the weakest character in the game currently with sissy right behind. At the very least she can poison items you can tell when someone grabs them which is useful. They need buffed if want to see them more especially johnny. He needs to be able to do something other then just run around and chase people. Considering people just need to go through a gap and your power is useless.

you're basicially complaining about a hitchhiker build that's really built for 1 thing, chasing. all 3 perks are geared twords chasing with scout, wire frame, and more than likely fired up as the 3rd perk. that'd be like family complaining about a julie that never runs out of stamina and is impossible to catch when she takes choose flight/conditioned/slippery, or an anna cosplaying as an Abrams tank when she maxes out her toughness, takes no sell/what doesn't kill you/ and one of the healing boosting perks.

There are some very strong perk combos yes, on both sides of this game they exist. the real skill is to realize what kind of build your opponents are using and learn what they give up in the process and to play around it. And realize that sometimes they just happened to bring a build that is a counter to yours and there's not much you can do about it if you get caught out.

Nothing wrong with Hitch other than he gets the crapiest xp of all characters in the game. He doesn't need a nerf, you just need to loop him. Hitch, even with wire frame, is slower through the gaps than any victim. As a victim, you never want to be caught in the open, running in a straight line.

[Bleydoka]

Games without cook are over in 2mins usually. Hitchhiker can also try to delay the game with traps but he is hardcountered by the bombsquad perk.
Gamemechanics and abilities are extremely victim sided. Only reason people complain is because they are new to the game and don't know the maps.

Right, let's make him spend as much stamina on melee attacks as Johnny spends even though his damage is much smaller, but also let's keep broken ass Bomb Squad that makes his ability useless, so he'd become a pointless weirdo with chicken on the chest.

[Axx]

Do any of you people claiming family members are op or say the game is family sided ever play solo family? If not, go play solo family for as long as you have played victim. Then reevaluate that opinion. As soon as you face victims that can take advantage of the all the iframes and the other dumb not so thought out game mechanics, good luck if your teammates have zero clue.

Yes, let's kill the last capable member of the Family. It is impossible to look at Sissy without tears - NOT ONE functional assembly. Johnny is very situational. Cook is very inactive but has good support.
Let's kill all family members, make them completely incapacitated so that the victims can finally have a party with fireworks, music and dancing on their grandfather's head.

Not all guys are using perk bombsquad ( but i am using :) ). Last games i rarely saw somebody with this perk.
Problem of HH is his speed with ability to perma hit. If you don´t have perk Flight, you are not able to escape him if he is not retarded.
I agree with some buff for Sisy and Johnny.

But anyway situation with family seems to be very static. Usally LF, Cookie and HH.
Camping objectives are not fun also.
