Dead Dawg Saloon - Killer blocking to prevent unhook.

Hello, every now and then there is a hook spawn on the place where people are hanging on the Dead Dawg Saloon map, the killer can stand on the stair case and completely block the only entrance to the place where there might be a hooked survivor.


We had no way of getting to the survivor unless the killer would hit one of us (Which he didn't)


Is this supposed to be a possibility for the killer to do to ensure a kill or is it maybe forbidden or something? I'm asking here because i don't know.

    It's legal as far as game rules are concerned.

    It's more of design oversight, as similar bodyblocking spots in hooking areas have been rectified.

    I suggest posting this in a bug report.

    I don't think this should be possible, just like bodyblocking the entrance to the basement was fixed (and so were those hooks that spawned in a certain way that prevented survivors from unhooking if the killer standed in front of them)

    Just like blocking the basement of the new farm maps this needs to be removed

    Blocking the basement entrance was removed because it made it possible to keep Survivors trapped down there permanently, holding the game hostage, not because it stopped someone from being unhooked.

    That's not the case here, as anyone up top isn't stuck up there with no other exit.

    It's a design oversight, not bannable but it should be redesigned so it can't happen.
