Family House is forever for Family only?
Developer, you fixed the Slaughterhouse map now. Okay, but there is another map in play, the Family House, working solely in favor of the Family.
If you're playing as a solo victim in a public match against a party of maniacs from level 40 and up, and there's a Cook, there's a 99% chance that none of the victims on that map will escape alive.
And in this situation, it doesn't matter how good you are at playing as a victim. You can even be level 70 and have all the lockpicking perks, and it will still be extremely difficult to escape even one victim on this map 9 out of 10 times.
Because it's almost impossible for Connie, let alone the other victims, to stealthily pick 2 locks on each of the three doors leading out of the house.
These doors are literally 10 meters away from each other and two of them are visible from one point. They can be monitored every second by any maniac from Leatherface to Cook.
The second maniac just needs to stay near the fuse box on the second floor and the victims won't stand a chance.
The valve on this map doesn't work as a distraction or a direct escape, because you can't get out of the house safely anyway, and the maniacs know that.
And jumping out the window against experienced maniacs is a guaranteed suicide. It's very noisy and you'll likely be killed before you can even get off your knees. At best, playing as Ana, you can manage to run to the well and fall back into the basement, all the exits of which lead to the still closed house.
I would like to ask you to somehow balance this map for the victims' side as well. It is necessary to somehow simplify the exit with the valve, add a fourth door from the house, so that the Cook does not have enough locks for at least one of the doors. And if the Family wants to feed Grandpa, we need to remove all the blood buckets from the house and move them to the outside area, let the maniacs move at least a little from their camp.

family house is the only balanced map for both sides, idk what you are on about. connie can insta open backdoor with ability since it has only one lock. ana can jump down window with ability or stunt double which forces one member camp window or generator side. fuse can be easily done under 60s on some occasions.

Nod for kiss, I get the impression that you've played Texas Chainsaw Massacre for 14 hours, not 140, and that time is exclusively on the Family side.

In my post, I talked about playing this map against a party of experienced maniacs.
It's very strange that you don't know that in the backyard, in addition to the iron gate, the glass door from the kitchen is also locked with a Cook's lock.

And against experienced maniacs you will never open the fuse panel in 60 seconds, and running one of the Family members out into the street behind Ana won't do you any good, especially in the daytime version of the map . The house will also be locked and can be controlled even by two Family members.

Is it cringy to call a family of killer-cannibals maniacs? I apologize, my English is not that good. And if you have the characters of the movie Texas Chainsaw Massacre usually called a family of noble heroes, I didn't know that ;))

The buckets of blood is just a suggestion in case there's nothing else to improve the house. A suggestion so that there is some chance of a safe exit for the victims, who, judging by your rhetoric, you've probably never played for.

Family house is easier for family just like slaughter house is easier for victims and gas station is balanced for both sides. I'd call that fair and balanced :steamhappy:

Family house is the most balanced map of them all it's my favourite.

not really

slaughterhouse was way more victim sided than FH is family sided

Family house is easy to rush Fuse on, and do window escape rushes. If they're good at guarding the exits, you use the windows or you get that fuse open.

It's a family sided map like Slaughterhouse is victim sided (will still be even with the changed spawn locations of fuse and valve), but it's certainly very possible to do as either side.

The map needs to be completely reworked. I will never play that map again.

a well coordinated cook/hitch will give any high level victim 4 stacks trouble on FH

if they are running anything else, its pretty easy as victims
