Gameplay tips
Bind Q and E to turn the chainsaw: you'll get far better mobility and control than with the mouse alone.
To avoid whiffing the saw at melee range, aim at the ground (at the survivor's feet): you see less movement and land it more often. Charge the saw to 99% and release it just as they're centred.
Learn to curve: as you start the saw you can turn 90° or 180° to land surprise hits at certain pallets.
