About the hatch nerfe
Good day. I have a few big issues with the hatch nerfe and here is why.
Fist of all Keys are pretty much useless now, because it is literally a Item that you can only use, if you let all of your m8s die.
Second of all, if you can only use a key / find the hatch after everyone is dead, what shall you do, if the killer is a sweaty player, that wants the 4 k so bad, that he sluggs? Wait for 5 Minutes until your m8 is blead out and start searching afterwards?
In my opinion if they nerfe it like this, they should at least also remove the killers ability to close it or else it is just useless at that point.

As it should be.

Why should it be like that? That isn't fair, especially because you can literally waste the chests or your bloodpoints on pretty much useless keys

I think the nerfs are fair. The hatch was only ever intended to give the last player a chance to get some big BP, not multiple players bypass the objective and end the game early. And with the hatch/key changes, I've actually had less teammates camping the hatch waiting for me or a teammate to die.
The Killers slugging for the 4k hasn't changed though, in fact during this event it seems to have gotten worse... but I believe that can be fixed with a "give up" option for Survivors who have been left on the ground for around half of their bleedout timer, or 2 minutes. Or else have Survivors get a free Unbreakable after 2 minutes of being slugged. Either of those would be very helpful and make for healthier gameplay.

"they should at least also remove the killers ability to close it"
So you complain that keys are useless, which they are not. They are bond and OoO in item, everyone is just used to free escape with it.
If killer can't close hatch, it will never be closed, so what is that key for?
And imagine I kill everyone else on 5 gens left, like what the hell should I do as a killer, when I find hatch, but can't close it?
I am gonna stand on top of it, so you can't go inside, then i am going to get something to eat and maybe watch a movie, enjoy m1 simulator.

I mean keys have other uses outside of opening hatch. Such as seeing the obsession if your holding the key. Not even using it just holding it. Literally better Blood Pact.

How is it fair that the survivor can escape for free cause they have a item?

You couldn't bypass ######### tbh, because you had to finish as many gens as players where in the match(including the killer) for it to spawn. So it was pretty fair in my opinion.

How is it fair, that killers can mori the survs and don't have to hook them? That was kind of the same thing

Okay yeah I get that, you got me there. I still think it is not good, that it only spawns if there is only one player left, seems unresonable to me.

You know that it's actually quite good for survivors too? Unless they liked to use key for free escape
1) You will not have situation where killer just stand on top of hatch and close it instantly, because he found it before killing second survivor.
2) When there are 2 survivors left and you run killer, second survivor will not just ditch you waiting in locker next to hatch, so you have better chance he will finish gen.

I mean I usually play with at least one m8 that I know and we had the situation that our m8s died quite fast and we were left with 2-4 gens and didn't know what to do, if either one should kill themselves or whatever, but sometimes we found a key and could turn the whole thing around. It was a amazing moment but that is not possible anymore. Or this moment when you run towards the hatch one opens it the other one gets downed straight on the hatch and still makes it, that can't happen anymore and that is so sad.

Well, I've had too many 3-man escapes through one Survivor having/finding a key and leading their teammates to the hatch at one gen remaining. It's even worse when they've 3-genned themselves and then they just get a free pass to victory. It's not fair.
The Survivors' objective is to complete the generators in order to escape. Not do "most" of the objective and then not only bypass the remaining gen(s) but also opening the exit gates. Believe me, I'm a 90% solo queue player and I think the hatch change is ultimately for the best.
I would like to point out here that the Clown played fair and at this point was patrolling the last generators. Very fun and fair for him to get robbed of possible chase, hook and sacrifice points. (I cut it too early but the Claudette jumped out as well)

amazing moment for survivors, but there is someone playing killer too and it just sucks to secure 3-gen or trying to win hard game and survivors just go cya into hatch.

But that got changed. So it isn't anymore.
