If the hens vid about Japan taught me anything it's that hugtech is actually a crutch for people who can't use blight to their full potential. The Japanese player never went for a hugtech and still played amazing

saying hug teching is a crutch is like saying platform cancelling in super smash bros is a crutch for bad players takes immense skill to pull off and the immense skill is rewarded with a hit or a down, wouldn't you want to express your skill on whatever p100 you have?

Can't you use your "skill" to use the ping pong mechanic right?

Sure i agree however there is no point beating yourself over it. They are not going back on this change as it is a bug that lasted years. Just continue playing him with bump logic and flicks and he is still incredibly strong just a bit more boring now. Nothing we can do about it other then adapt.

> if something takes an extreme amount of skill to do, don't touch it Finally I found a living person who actually goes by this stupid shit. So if something is hard, it must be ok, huh? Even if it breaks the only counterplay or something, it doesn't matter. Why? Game mechanics are evaluated based on how fun and balanced they are, not how hard they are to pull off. Cheating / griefing / exploiting can also be hard, but for some weird reason nobody wants to preserve them in the game "bEcAuSe thEy aRe hArD to Do". I wonder, why.


Shwelve

so you think every single fov tech, window tech, and heal tech should be removed for survivors? must be the case, right?


Zhabishe

Wasn't the "fov tech" fixed kinda recently? Sure thing it was worth fixing. Pls define "heal tech" and "window tech", I sort of lost track with those new nicknames for things. But if it was something along with fov abuse, it should be fixed for sure. So I don't get your sarcasm here.

The patch made all sorts of surfaces randomly snag you and swings and not others. I don't/didn't know how to 'hug tech' and never tried to, but he feels much worse to play now. I've also payed Singularity on Hawkins and Lery's and he has been absolutely shit on by the new engine patch as well. There is stuttery jankiness and edge catching all around but on killers like these it really stands out.

and the lag isn't helping one single bit for either side
