Chasing someone in circles breaks the immersion.

Chasing people as they run circles around any objects they come near just to have another pallet to put down and begin again it is not immersive. When they run up a building three times just to jump out the a window it's not a immersive. A game designed around embracing a killer and punishing survivors who are found is entirely broken by circling strategies. Until these circling strategies are purposely destroyed by the developers, the game is broken. A broken game cannot expect a healthy community nor a promising and lasting future. Please take circling out of the game, even it means you redesign every map. Even if it means bloodlust is gone. Make the game immersive again.

what do you mean make the game immersive again? We used to have infinites, those were way worse.

Salt is wanting the game to change, even if killer loses power too? What is not salt then? Stagnation?

Where the game feels like a killer is hunting a survivor. Not a killer is finding a survivor and then circling objects until he gets the fortunate time a pallet spawned elsewhere.

Agreed. People usually just blame the players for doing this, but playing playing this way rewards the most and is the most affective way to survive and earn points. same goes for camping and tunneling. it rewards the most. Hard task to do, but if they want more stealth based. they need to make survivors a lot better at hidding. and less affective at running away. But if they changed the game to more hidding and less Juking I would actually think all vet players would leave. It's a really hard thing to balance and fix. what killers want is to remove pallet loops and infinites. but removing pallet loop will just result in insta death for ANY survivor, even the ones that are good. no where to mind game, no where to Juke. Juking is the thing that keeps this game alive on the survivor side. I would say the best way to fix this is just to game the game longer and a killer skill check to avoid the pallet stun, like if you press space as soon as the pallet goes down you will counter it. but if you mash the button you will get stunned. so more mind games on pallets. a succeful skill check will result in the killer catching the pallet resulting in pallet destroyed under 1 sec and No stun. I think both sides would like this. But then again it would be REALLY hard to fix

I mean, what are survivors supposed to do when you end up with ♥♥♥♥ like this? http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1158446077

Just hope the killer falls asleep?

I mean, I'm not saying "killer op plz nerf," but we need to look into making these generator locations a little more sane before we go making the game impossible for survivors.

I know a lot of people would say it's the survivor's fault for doing those gens last, but I made sure to stick to that area; never letting someone pull me far enough away for any of these to be done. I could've literally just sat in that one position and no one could touch a generator without me seeing them.

So at this point, their only hope is for someone to purposely get noticed, and lead me on a loop long enough to repair a generator.

If 2 died while you could protect these 3 gens then it is clearly the fault of the survivors. And most of the time the gens are not that close and when survivor just do gens in a circle and dont watch out where the last 3 gens are it IS there fault.
