CoconutRTS Pinhead is back

Just played against a Pinhead with Ruin, Undying, Sloppy Butcher, and Infectious Fright. So the full CoconutRTS "torture simulator Pinhead" build.

"But they specifically patched Pinhead so Torture Pinhead is impossible!" Yeah here's the thing: it was RPD. And the box spawned in the entrance to the main lobby (in front of the exit gate). So Pinhead could just play keep-away by walking between the only two directions that you could get to the box from and smacking anyone who came close. All while Ruin makes repairing gens impossible and Sloppy makes healing impossible.

If no one solves Pinhead's box for over a minute, it should teleport away. I'm not saying it should get solved automatically, but the game should recognize that if no one grabbed the box in over 60 seconds, something strange is happening and it should try to correct itself.

Reason number 918578125678125 out of 9865478967349871974198327786578467816783216478635786532785462937467832165782364902367510732117895678216978126578953629218651327825637895 why RPD is a bad map that should be removed from this game entirely.

I've played against more Denied Reacquisition Form Slugularity players in the past 3 days than I have in the past 3 months

I have played against a Singularity who starts everyone Slipstreamed and starts slugging at 5 gens about 2 or 3 times per day in the past 3 days. Before this event I think I've seen Singularity maybe 20 times total in the past 3 months (one every week and a half if I'm estimating), maybe two of them were running DRF, and three of them were slugging.

These events always bring out the worst in the playerbase I swear. I'm not even in the event queue (despite being immensely survivor-sided, the average soloqueue teammate would rather spend 30 minutes playing with tables than 3 minutes on gens) but the regular queue is stuffed with people like this and other similar cheesy players.

Full list of off-meta perks I enjoy that no longer work because of BHVR's bad balance / lack of bug fixes

  • Batteries Included - Diminishing Returns.

  • Call of Brine and to a lesser extent Overcharge - No longer attracts Nemesis zombies (also just generally a shit perk that died for the crimes of Skull Merchant).

  • Darkness Revealed - Modern maps don't have lockers, yet alone lockers close to generators.

  • Dominance - I mean this perk was never good but it's still worth mentioning.

  • Dying Light - I mean this perk was never good but it's still worth mentioning.

  • Fire Up + Brutal Strength - Diminishing Returns.

  • Flow State - Diminishing Returns.

  • Franklin's Demise - Gutted because they didn't know how to make it work with Fog Vials, just to rework Fog Vials anyways.

  • Friends Til' the End - Vigil turns the already tight 20 second window to a mere 13 seconds, meaning that the perk is useless unless your killer name rhymes with "The Fool".

  • Game Afoot - No longer works with killer powers that break pallets like Nemesis or Demogorgon, basically killing the only reason to ever use the perk. Given this was never listed in the patch notes, I believe this to be a bug.

  • Monitor & Abuse - Nerfed on small terror radius killers for no reason.

  • Moment of Glory - Now loses charge if you go down while it's active. Was bugfixed in October of 2024 to never lose charge, but around Ghoul patch it reverted back to how it worked pre-patch. Given this was never listed in the patch notes, I believe this to be a bug.

  • Object of Obsession and to a lesser extent We See You - Every time I run this perk and I'm not the obsession I die a little inside.

  • Rapid Response - This perk was never good but I mean come on.

  • Road Life - Would've fit perfectly into a lot of my builds if it wasn't Z- tier.

  • Thanatophobia - I was never really that big of a fan of this perk but it's still worth mentioning how this perk has been F- for so long due to the crimes of Legion so now it's literally only useful on Plague and even then not really.

But you know what I'm so very glad does still work completely unchanged? Sprint Burst plus Vigil. Stakeout plus Hyperfocus. Killers running 4 gen stall or 4 totems.

I finally get the hate for Jason

Jason fatigue isn't directed towards the killer: it's directed ENTIRELY towards the people who play him. Holy shit every single fucking Jason player plays exactly the fucking same:

  • Sauna Rock and Deputy's Badge
  • Thrill of the Hunt, Ruin, and then two other Hexes from the following: Undying, Pentimento, Hive Mind, Blood Favor >!(P.S. while obviously content creators gotta make content, holy shit I really wish OhTofu and Hens didn't make "This is Jason's BEST BUILD" videos showing off the full Hex build)!<
  • Hard tunneling at 5 gens
  • If they get a basement hook literally ever, they will proxy camp it
  • If they ever start losing, they will just patrol a three-gen in Omnipresent Evil with their "lmao unlimited uses of Turn Back the Clock" addon

I now understand why Reddit was complaining about Omnipresent Evil being unlimited, because the problem is absolutely not Omnipresent Evil itself: it's entirely rooted in Deputy's Badge (and also Sauna Rock). Deputy's Badge could be an Iridescent addon with how good it is, but the fact that you can use it on generators that are already regressing is genuinely insane. How the fuck did the weaker Hive Mind effect from the PTB have a downside of making you slower in Omnipresent but the reworked version doesn't? If they aren't going to nerf how Deputy's Badge functions, it should make Jason unable to detect people in Omnipresent Evil. (And Sauna Rock just shouldn't be a 13 second Exhaustion because seriously that's bullshit)

And the other thing I hate about Jason is the mentality he instills in the general playerbase. Because wow I just adore playing with TWO people running Urban Evasion and Left Behind who spend the entire game crouch walking around the map. Literally ignore me on hook because they're Urban Evading around!!! Oh my fucking God I really wish Jason wasn't countered by crouch-walking, because the Urban Evasion to Full Rat Build pipeline is apparently a straight fucking line for some people.

Seriously this Jason was complete dogshit. We got down to 1 gen but we can't fucking win when:

  • Lara gets camped in basement because lmao Jason player moment
  • Vittorio and Lara are both running Urban Immersion and Left to Raise Global Kill Rates (I can at least concede to Lara urban evading given that she got camped to second stage)

I am calling it right now Jason's first hotfix will look something like this:

  • Sauna Rock: made Very Rare, probably have its duration reduced.
  • Deputy's Badge: made Visceral rarity. No longer works on regressing generators. Now has the effects of Iridescent Boat Motor, moved to Rare rarity.
  • Iridescent Boat Motor: made Rare now has the effect of Deputy's Badge. No longer works on regressing generators.

How it feels reading "Jason's OP!" posts when you're part of the 76% of the population who doesn't need Run to Yellow to survive

Seriously just... run behind a tree dude. It's not that hard.

The bloodpoint score of the P100 Nea moments before she DCs

Context: it was a Wraith on Forgotten Ruins. Because he starts uncloaked before immediately cloaking, there was an entire 1 second that I was in his Terror Radius. The killer's game then crashed.
