[Suggestion] Put chainsaws at the exit gates

I mentioned this is another thread, but I recently bought Leatherface (because he was cheap). I haven't invested any BPs in him yet, but have played a fair few games.

Now... I suck with this fake-faced spud. No doubt. So a lot of these games have gone to the end game with no one dead. Sad times. One thing I have noticed, is that those teabagging morons in the gates tend to GTFO pretty sharpish when a killer turns up who can down all four of them in one go.

Yeah, you still get the odd few who run off into the map instead of leaving, but maybe we need a similar mechanism so that all killers can down the entire group inside the gates.

    If your put chainsaws at the Exit Gates, then maybe one survivor can grab it for an epic duel to the death. Each killer has 100 hp, and the chainsaw does 20 damage. Holding the chainsaw greatly reduces their movement speed. Or...they can troll and down other survivors.

    @Eight Just add chainsaws? Why not add map flair? Ironworks maps have boiling iron flood the gates, Wreckers will crush anyone who sticks around, Farm will have the harvester go in. Let's be creative here!

    Silly suggestion aside, I do think that there needs to be an actual incentive to rush survivors out of the exit gates instead of hanging around to taunt the killer.

    Would it be cool to demand sharks with laser beams attached to their heads?

    The only reason I stick around is to help any Survivors who are still out there. If I know the killer can instantly down me though, I get the hell out ASAP. Or if I'm injured.

    Also, yes. Leatherface is bad. I'd say he needs a rework, but I've never seen the movies so I have no clue what they could do. I do like that he can wear the faces of the original 4 though. Nice touch.

    I agree that I'd be fun if the game gave killers an opportunity to screw with survivors who stick around in the exit area. There are so many who waits around for no reason except to teabag the killer a couple of times and then run off, maybe even taking a hit in the process.

    Yeah, no complaints about you hanging around to support your team mates. And it's a difficult call when two survivors are at one gate but don't know the other two are at the opposite gate (assuming you've left all four alive).

    I was really just thinking that the 4-man teabagging party who insist you trek over to them just to taunt you tend to disappear pretty quickly when that chainsaw revs.

    FWIW For survivor cry-babies thinking I'm deadly serious here - I never kill anyone in the gates. If you're in there, I consider it a loss. I'm not looking for a way to kill you and cover up my failure as a killer. :) Why you feel the need to taunt me from the safety of the exit line, is beyond me. You want to show me how great you are, come out into the map and taunt me one-on-one.

    He's terrible. But pretty good fun to play. I don't mind low-grade killers if they're entertaining to use.

    @Eight A Pig with a chainsaw? Why does this sound familiar?
