Better Communication for Survivors.

I know the game isn't supposed to have voice chat, but we need more emotes than 1 and 2, i was thinking maybe a "Stay" Emote, where the survivors just points his hands flat on the ground, maybe a way for a survivor to communicate with his team that the killer is camping and they should do gens, as that would end the camping argument.

    I agree wholeheartedly communication needs to be improved so that we have less of this : https://youtu.be/8poRY3kZiNE

    I agree with this, at least with the "Stay" emote. Any more than 4 would be a bit annoying to reach over for on the keyboard, and console players/controller users only have 4 D-Pad directions. Not sure how the "he's camping go do gens" would be communicated, as the point emote can normally do that fairly well.

    Speaking of signaling to other survivors you're being camped, how does the arm flailing work on PS4? Is that a thing at all? I thought you could just try to unhook yourself.  I've read on Reddit people are doing that

    Thd thing is it is not universal for signaling camping. Most survivors I encounter nowadays use the flailing arms to signal that they can get unhooked savely.

    Devs are already thinking of making Kindred default for all survivors.

    I personally use it to signal that I'm being camped, that was what I read, so it's what I always did.

    That would be good, I've always wanted more "command emotes" for survivors.

    Yes, they are trying hard to kill their own game.

    Dont confuse people, the kindred affect of seeing a killer near a hook. Not seeing each other.
