Do you think hatches should be removed?
Comments

Its just sorta poor sportsmanship. People often forget that the killer is a player too. Just as some killers face camp ruining the fun for one person in particular. I think their point was its frustrating

hatch is fine but gen do pop fast.

You can’t camp the hatch all match. It doesn’t spawn in until late game either way due to how many generators need to be repaired.
I don’t mind the hatch. Most of the time the killer gets it anyway, and opening doors is slow as hell. Basically once hatch is closed it’s usually game over.

I think they should be removed because it robs the killer of having the satisfaction of getting the 4k when they've worked for it by allowing someone to literally get away through either product of chance, or by throwing the game (i.e. hatch-camping, or hatch-tech). It's a feelsbad for the killer, with no alternative mechanism or counter.

lol track every one down. bbq and no skill

I am up for it as long as the basement which is the opposite mechanic for the killers, is removed too
0 -
I'll second that.

I don't have Leatherface and never use bbq.

Can't remember how many times I read that face camper a surv at the end it's ok because you can ensure 1k. But killers think that an opportunity for a 1 surv to escape (and it's probably a kill anyway) it's not ok. Killers are so selfish.

Not unless it's replaced with a different mechanic with the same purpose (ending the match and/or kickstarting the inevitable end of the match through EGC).
I like this idea. Eliminates the "hatch camping" and makes it entirely luck-based assuming both the survivor and the killer knows where the hatch can spawn. The only issue with it is that the 4-man hatch escape achievement exists and I'm not too sure if achievements/trophies can just be changed or not.

Hatches arent a problem at all for me. Maybe they could change that it only appears for the last survivor so camping is impossible but thats as far as I would go.
Keys are a problem, they ruin matches where you play completely fair and outplay the survivors and then they just 2 or 3 man escape and on the other hand often completely screw over those who arent part of the 3 man swf cause then suddenly the endgame started while you were still trying to do gens and you are alone vs the killer.
On the other hand I think Mori is just the same, happened way too many times that you get hooked first just to get immediately tunneled after unhook and mori in the face, no chance to ds, nothing, dead after 2 minutes with 3k points. Should imo be removed or changes that you can for example not mori anybody who has been hooked in the last few minutes OR you cant mori anybody who wasnt healed to full health in between, which would also mean survivors can decide between healing and risking a mori or not healing, which would imo be a fun added aspect.
In the end (for me) the game isnt really that fun on either side atm. As killer you get gen rushed way too many times and it often feels like you didnt even make a mistake but a good survivor can just loop you for long enough so that 3 gens are done when you get the first hook or many survivors will just dc if you get them fast or if you play a killer they dont like which gives you a no win situation of playing against 2 or 3 survivors where you can either farm with them or kill them and get flamed for it. On the other side, especially in red rank, killers are sweating so hard (I think to some degree because getting gen rushed is annoying as hell), 80% of the game you have either mori,a camper or a tunneler. And playing fair as killer often feels unrewarding.
In the end like I said the hatch isnt the issue that the current dbd meta has, who even cares if you have a 4k or a 3k and the last guy escaped through hatch, you know you won either way. But maybe the killer should be rewarded for a hatch escape, similar to like a dc is handled.

You are correct, I have over 4000 posts on this forums and have been playing since day 1 and I understand that gens can be completed faster than ever. I'm also speaking on average because the dark days of 4 BNP instantly completing 4 generators are too painful for me to want to recall.
0 -
this idea is freaking awesome
0 -
Yes, and if there's only 1 surv left one of the doors open automatically and the other one last 1 minute.
1 -
What does that do to you though other than clearly hurt your ego, just ignore and move on...
1 -
Nope. Hatch is fine. Just get rid of keys.
0 -
Who cares, you don't even need 4k. Play for points, relax and have fun.
0 -
And? Who cares as well, let them do them and you do you, stop sweating jesus christ.
0 -
It's only really competitive if you're a try hard. If you only play to have fun and for blood points and your team then it's far from competitive. Especially if you don't cry about the small things like someone typing ez in chat lmfao.
0 -
Hmmm, not once in that quoted comment did I see them say the ones who do it aren't...
0 -
Omg you sound stupid AF!! What are you 12?...
0 -
If you don't get 1 pip and only one survivor escaped by the hatch, you're doing something terrible wrong in your game bro lol.
0 -
Because who cares and just play for fun not for sweating 🤷🏼♂️
0 -
Wow, this comment is extremely insensitive. Telling people to "stop being hurt" won't do anything. Some people like me are more sensitive than others.
0 -
Dude who gives a flying f if one survivor escapes, stop being a try hard, if you can't get 4k it doesn't matter, you don't need 4k for a pip and you certainly don't need 4k if you're just playing for bps or fun. It's like killers think if they don't get 4k they suck or failed or something. Calm down and have a shower from all the sweating you do.
Edit: what easier role? Don't most play both killer and survivor?? Seriously calm the f down, just looking at your huge novel I can tell you're an extreme try hard lol.
1 -
Nothing to do with what the other person was talking about, they said they got 3k and one gets hatch.....
0 -
Exactly so learn to calm down and not take things people say to heart lmao. In real life it's completely different as most ppl are keyboard warriors and wouldn't say crap all to anyone in real life. Also typing ez or git gud is no where near the same thing as giving someone the middle finger. You clearly are a young one who has some growing to do.

For the third time..it was a joke.
0 -
Just because dbds match making sucks at times doesn't mean someone is braindead, not everyone is a master try hard, some are new, some may even have disibilites who play and it therefore makes things like skill checks or remembering map layouts harder than it is for other players.
Worry about yourself and not others lack of skill or comments and you'll start having a lot more fun.
0 -
If a survivor does that though who cares, should make you laugh because you know if they didn't camp the hatch they could have actually pipped and gotten a hell of a lot more bps out of it. Chances are they got less than 7k in bps and they definitely would have depipped.
0 -
all people care about is sweating survivors and killers,killers don't need to 4k every match and all survivor don't need to get out every match more who learn that better this game will be.
2 -
Sad when you need 4k to get satisfaction, you can pip and earn a lot of bps without even getting 1k lmao.
0 -
If you had to explain that 3 times, your skills at telling jokes are atrocious 😁
0 -
Who cares?
1 -
If you get hurt over someone saying ez then you are going to have a very sad and sheltered life my friend 🤷🏼♂️.
If you really are that sensitive then maybe you should turn off the pre-game/post-game chat no?
0 -
Guess so. Thought it was a good one. I agree that the hatch should exist and I see the reason.
0 -
That's not the point. Telling anyone to just "stop being offended" is rude and insensitive. I don't get offended by EZ.
0 -
I was being sarcastic that's why I added an emoticon, and to show how texting can be hard to pick up on humour or sarcasm lol.
I agree with you for sure! 🤜🏻.

Not when it has to do with a fictional game world. Don't play online games if that's the case. Also don't be the pc police, we have enough of them already. Learn to let things roll of your shoulders and life will be better.
One can say that to another as a suggestion or a tip without being concidered rude and insensitive.

I'd rather remove hatch and let the killer start egc anytime by interacting with the gates
0 -
I dont think hatch is as bad as people like to think it is. 4/5 times if im the last survivor its hard to find the hatch because killers get the upper hand being able to move around the map faster and they dont have to worry about being seen so they usually find it first. Then trying to open a door you are more than likely to get caught just as the door is about to open especially if your up against a nurse,hillbilly or spirit. I play both survivor and killer equally.
2 -
Unless you have bills left behind perk 😁 muahahahaha lol
I do have to agree though, I've clocked 30 hours since I started playing again a few days ago and I've gotten hatch twice, once by a nice killer who took me there and second was after doing 3 generators and 3 or 4 hook saves and heals I was the last one left and just happened to run by hatch while evading the killer 🤷🏼♂️.

It's sad that you lack the capacity to consider that different people want different things out of the game. Some people don't care about the pips or bps...
0 -
Resulting to insults, you really are a kid. Grow up. If you want 4k then get better or stay mad ya try hard lol. Also I get that people do want just kills and not pips and bps, they're called try hards and sweaty people.
0 -
And you assume I'm not?
Hate to tell ya, but I get tilted super easy for stupid #########, and when I recognize it's happening, ya know what I do? I stop playing, and take a break from it until I can get myself under control and understand a "gg ez" wont ruin my day.
1 -
Wait, wait, wait... firstly, I responded completely in kind to your comment. You projected an unfounded opinion onto me, and I responded with a qualified response to you. There was no insult there, it's an observation that appears to objectively hold true - because if you were capable of respecting the fact that not all people play for pips or bps, it'd nullify your entire comment.
Secondly, don't tell me to grow up. I've probably got hair in my backside that's older than you!
You want to call people try-hards or what-not. You go ahead. It doesn't change the point in the slightest. It just means you've come up with a term that you consider derogatory for people who want something else from the game, and you're the one who then projects the idea that others are sad.
Please... don't buy auric cells, you need brain cells.

Finally someone else with some common sense. I myself get very triggered, usually in real life though where I can't walk away from it usually, so I definitely keep that crap out of my gaming which is my relax time.

Difference between you and I, I'm not a keyboard warrior. Also making fun of someone's mental disability is disgusting.
