Remove track marks while being hunted
There needs to be somewhat of a skillcap for the killers. The game is way too in favor of them now, so can we please buff survivor a little bit? If we can't window juke, then we're dependent on our ability to lose the killer in corn fields, the grass, in a building. This is IMPOSSIBLE against a good killer now since you leave footsteps while running.

"Just stop running" You are the type of person that mains killer and is part of the problem by saying this. If you suddenly stop leaving tracks, what does that say to the killer? "Okay he isn't sprinting anymore, he couldn't have gone far, or he's crouched behind this tree in the grass", it's a dead giveaway.

The killer should not be handed kills for free. Remove a survivors scratches while sprinting if they are being hunted. This way the killer will actually have to track the body he's chasing as opposed to staring at the ground until scooby-♥♥♥♥♥♥♥-doo leads him to us.

There's a perk for that, Lightweight actually. They could potentially give it a buff and I imagine it'll be one of the skills considered as they make the next round of balance changes.

There is a perk to reduce the scratch marks.

Lightweight Your running is light and soft, making your tracks harder to follow. Footstep marks stay visible { 1 / 2 / 3 } seconds less than normal.

I also highly recommend Iron Will on top of it, though avoid Rank 3 as it's currently broken from some accounts. I've outright lost several killers during a chase while injured just with that perk alone.
There are plenty of perks in the game to help facilitate a stealth build.

I have rank 3. Doesn't make a difference.

It will be interesting to test remove marks when you are being hitted, with the blood strain, the pain sounds and being slower it would be suficient for the average killer.
But I don't know how many interest have devs on balancing this game.

I remember someone saying it stays for 9 seconds normally, so those three seconds would probably not matter more than they would.

How long do the scratches remain once made? If it's around 10 seconds, 3 seconds won't make a lot of difference.

It's MUCH longer than the normal 5 seconds if the killer runs Bloodhound.

Xecta you should stop playing this game, it's clearly not for you. This is the second thread I see from you complaining about the patch that came out yesterday. You spent your time playing the wrong way, now that the right way is out you can't win anymore. Devs stated several times cheese is cheating, you shouldn't feel safe in front of the killer...... And don't get me started on that main killer ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ I play both roles.
Kay. Keep saying that when the population is dead lmao. You players just take every change because the developers are perfect people that never make mistakes.

Yep, player population is dead, the game totally didn't hit an all-time peak high player count today.

Oh wait, yes it did.[steamdb.info]

Oh god! The community is going to die because they stopped people from cheating? Oh no! That means that the cheaters will leave!

...I see no problem with this.

Garbage day, motherfunster. Trash to the curb.

:facepalm: (Oh wait I don't have an emote for that? Damn.)

Wow you're telling me a patch advertised all over their social media and released to the people who stopped playing the game boosted the first day of the patch? DAMN I CAN'T BEGIN TO UNDERSTAND WHY.

Really are all people like this? World of Warcraft loses millions each expansion, and then gets most of them back with each expansion release for a good month or so. That doesn't mean the population is a steady high.

Where did I say that window juking didn't need to be nerfed? They nerfed the ONLY thing survivors had and did ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ NOTHING TO KILLERS. Every advantage killers already had, remained in tact while they nerf the survivors to the ground. You have NO idea what you're talking about in terms of balance.
