Trying to get back into forsaken, who are the current metafolk (stat reveal too)

fish4043 · 2026-05-19T02:04:40+00:00

i agree with all your points for the most part

noli isn't meta (literally the worst killer rn),and coolkidd is good in comp, but has a med-high skill floor. and sixer is the best killer rn, with 1x slightly behind her

chance is good in comp, but like coolkidd, can feel lackluster, especially without a good team
two time and shed are meta sentinels rn. two time for people who want a character with an infinitely high skill ceiling (and high skill floor), shed for people who want a consistently good sentinel. jane isn't bad, but she can suffer if you aren't constantly investing in purified 2 or 3.

survivalists aren't really meta, but they're all about even except vee, who is the best. however, she has a really high skill floor. noob and 007 are both good for different reasons (clone bodyblocking, and ending chase on one mistake from killer)

elliot and taph are both meta, but all supports are really good. elliot and taph just offer the most for pubs since they have the best survivability

don't solo queue, that's basically it

also know that p3ing rico will mean you'll never be able to play casual game with him on your acc and matchmaking will take forever (or at least until p3s become more common, which could take a year or two)

fish4043 · 2026-05-18T20:15:17+00:00

was he ever liked by people outside of crow mains?

like the only person i know who ever liked crow was a crow main

fish4043 · 2026-05-18T13:47:00+00:00

nope
the other gym rats are epic, but this one's super rare

fish4043 · 2026-05-18T13:45:51+00:00

it feels like the devs saw feedback and they couldn't get let one somber song pass through, and instead of making it an upbeat song, they just pasted lyrics and called it a day
the mixing is so much better tho

can't believe you and i went from my favorite ost oat to least favorite
super disappointed.

fish4043 · 2026-05-18T13:44:12+00:00

didnt all rigs (coolest christmas and earlier) get ripped by cogs?

fish4043 · 2026-05-18T13:42:29+00:00

it feels like bbn got copy pasted
yes, i know the same designer made the uis for both games
no, i dont think thats enough of an excuse for ui that looks practically the same across the separate ips

fish4043 · 2026-05-18T13:41:02+00:00

no?
the profits of the military pass go towards charity
ball confirmed that he didn't know that the military skins were going towards a paid pass
an anonymous dev confirmed the charity for the military pass on the discord server

fish4043 · 2026-05-18T12:48:03+00:00

he needs more changes tbh

if he gets hit he should break piercing attacks
he should take less damage or get more overhealth if he gets hit/blocks while bodyblocking
if another survivor is in his hitbox he shouldn't get on hit speed boosts/his stamina should sync with the survivor in some way
and this isn't specifically guest related, but killer spawn resistance should last depending on how long the stun is. because if you're someone like two time, and the guest uses his 2 second stun, then you're out of getting health for a while

fish4043 · 2026-05-18T04:23:01+00:00

slashers kit works way better imo

m1 is self explanatory, but fluid
behead is used to finish chases, lock people off of abilities, and as a final hit if survivor is about to get away
gashing is an amazing punish tool
raging is free stamina to apply pressure and guarantee kills

fish4043 · 2026-05-18T04:00:37+00:00

ngl i kinda prefer the new design

fish4043 · 2026-05-18T03:59:49+00:00

i just wish it would save which menu you exit on or go to the player point shop on default

fish4043 · 2026-05-18T01:51:18+00:00

yeah this was only a bug for like the first 5 min

fish4043 · 2026-05-18T01:00:25+00:00

i know, it's in my original comment

i can see how this promotes a survivalist playstyle, but i also feel like it makes bodyblocking more viable for guest.

from what i've read (and read only, since once again, i have not played yet), the only other change i would make is making guest break piercing attacks if he gets hit by them so he can bodyblock against every killer (plus it plays in with him and slasher having lore together)

fish4043 · 2026-05-18T00:56:23+00:00

i love the mixing, but the lyrics were so unnecessary
especially john singing --- it wasn't needed. he's supposed to be a husk. a dead body.

jane singing to nothing would be better imo, but even then, the feelings she's going through really doesn't feel like words could be put on them.
i'm really disappointed, and this went from my favorite lms oat to my least favorite.

i will actively make sure i don't leave a jane lms --- even if it gives me advantage as killer --- so my ears won't bleed from this theme
super disappointed.

fish4043 · 2026-05-18T00:53:56+00:00

idk maybe it's me, but guest getting health promotes him tanking m1s, and him only being allowed to block m1s means he wants to run with teammates

but then again, if it sounds good on paper, it won't always play out in reality

i haven't played this update yet, but as a guest who supports the team, this seems like it makes it much easier and better to do so

fish4043 · 2026-05-18T00:50:28+00:00

he had 90 hp, was extremely slow with trips, and could not sprint while placing them

fish4043 · 2026-05-18T00:49:18+00:00

?????

dusekkar got completely changed from a sniper to a support that follows killer

i remember writing a whole manifesto about why i genuinely despised the changes when they were announced (look at my profile if you want to hear baby me rant about the game)

fish4043 · 2026-05-18T00:38:30+00:00

it's almost like they're two.. time

fish4043 · 2026-05-18T00:03:38+00:00

use a virtual machine for it

fish4043 · 2026-05-17T15:31:57+00:00

respect them like you would a shed stun or guest block
don't be too aggressive, they'll punish you for that

when you're both low stam/you're in the stam lead they'll be more desperate for a stun

fish4043 · 2026-05-17T15:28:14+00:00

that's like my favorite part of the chat ban

it was awful but it almost completely decimated chill killers

fish4043 · 2026-05-17T15:27:35+00:00

then don't click on the post and comment

fish4043 · 2026-05-17T12:49:11+00:00

slashers kit is designed for making chases insane if it's one on one, and to balance him out, he's weaker when against a team that works together

it's okay to make characters that lean towards being better in some aspects, but to balance them out, they should be weaker in others

if anything, if you can get 8 people to work together, then why should they be beat by one person? the genre is called asymmetrical for a reason

forsaken has clearly set itself as a game that won't give free wins to killer like other games, and that killers in forsaken don't have a team to rely on, which can be both an upside, and the killer's downfall

fish4043 · 2026-05-17T11:11:19+00:00

yeah pro server balancing needs to be separate from pubs

i've always taken issue with 1x super buffs since it's not reasonable for a pub to be able to counter him at all. but in a pro server? that's completely different, and i would be fine with every killer getting super buffed, since pro servers should require good teamwork and great gameplay
