Reduce the amount of time you’re stuck in a bear trap from 5 seconds to 2.
This would allow it to maintain its purpose as a jumpscare and movement blockage but wouldn’t be super boring while u wait to get out of it. 2 seconds is enough time to kill an inno if the murd is chasing and 5 seconds is so long that it gets boring and repetitive.
Alternatively (ik this should prob be its own post no voting for this one its just an idea), make the leaves visible that the bear traps r under but have leaves on alot more than just the bear trap blocks.
I would rather them just be removed Tbh cuz it’s so annoying getting trapped in em like every game

its a cool jumpscare that adds to the vibes so imo it shouldnt be removed just adjusted
Idk, if you know where they are, you won’t get stuck. Also it’s really useful for the murderer if the person you’re chasing gets stuck in a trap, but sometimes you need all 5 seconds of them being stuck to kill them.
Thatd be why there are more leaves than the ones that just have bear traps on them, rn bear traps just heavily incentivize camping in one of the like 3 very hard-to-approach camping spots.
I believe the word you’re thinking of is “throwable” lol, other maps lack bear traps but catching innos isn’t a problem its only annoying if they’re sheriff but u can still shoot while in the bear trap. 2 seconds allows bear traps to be a nice flavor/vibe add to the map and still provide murd an advantage while simultaneously punishing “not camping” much less.
At the end of the day, a mechanic which leads players to camp the same area leads to repetitive, and imo boring, games and that’s something nobody wants. Bear traps are a very cool idea in concept but are slightly too strong for the map as a whole to be as fun as it would be.
Removing these traps would ruin MM’s repetitive way for the lifestealer to get more kills.
Examples: Castle Town has flood gates, The Backrooms have light switches, and so on.
This is why they did the same thing for nectar lake.

I feel like maybe you should punch it to remove time.

“Sometimes you need all 5 seconds as the murderer” this is very murderer biased, first of all, second of all if this was the case then being murderer on any other map should be impossible, no? Been murderer on Fairy Garden and I don’t need someone to be trapped for 5 seconds to wipe the lobby

Ok first off, what is that even meant to mean
Of course it’s murderer biased, I’m talking from the perspective of the murderer saying that, I’m not sure how that’s really an argument.
I never said it’s impossible without them, just if there’s bear traps they should benefit the the murderer more.
even if bear traps were reduced to 2 seconds they’d still benefit murderer
Nectar lake over castle town any day

I was referring to this:
Castle Town = 3 keys = innocent advantage
Nectar Lake = bear traps = killer advantage
And so, we have a map that is of slight advantage to the murderer, and another map that is of slight advantage to the innocent. Perfectly balanced… as all things should be.

I dont like jumpscare but i dont consider bare trap as scaey
hey, can anyone tell me about bear traps? iv’e never seen one and i have no idea what they do. pictures would be useful.
They are traps that are part of the map, the assassin cannot place them, but he cannot be caught by one either.
If you are innocent, these traps trap you for a few seconds and then they release you and disappear.
They are placed inside the paths, but only the murderer can see them
They are activated when you step on them.
The innocent cannot see them, and they cannot even see traces that there is one laid.
I don’t have any photos or screenshots, so for now I owe them to you. While I leave you the photo of a cat with a shower cap:

Oh wait, I already have the images:
You may notice that the innocent player only notices the traps once they are caught by one. After a few seconds, their jaws open. And then they disappear.
HAHAHA THE CAT THO. ok, thanks, but what happens when you get caught in them as an innocent?
Nothing, the trap doesn’t hurt you, it only traps you for a few seconds and you can’t walk. After a few seconds he lets you go.
But if you are unlucky enough to be being close to the murderer:

The advantage is that if you have a bow, you can shoot him
DUDE i love the emioji hahaha but yea. thx, thats all.
I personally think 5 seconds is fine
