Can you please do something about killers taking games hostage
So we were facing a nurse in Hawkins, 2 dc'd and she should have killed us but she didn't. Claudette stood there waiting to be downed and hooked but she left her and kept downing me, dropping me, picking me up, letting me run away, rinse and repeat.
At first I thought she just wanted chase points to make up for the people who dc'd so I obliged. Then I started to think this has been going on too long and just gave up.
She carried me to the top part of Hawkins, above where the basement can spawn, not up the stairs, and trapped me in a corner for over 8 minutes until I had to eat a matchmaking ban after being forced to dc.
Try and think of doing something about this please devs. If any unfortunate people went against them repeatedly today, their ban will have increased so much and it's not their fault.

That's ass. I hate it when people get that way. I had a survivor once glitch on top of a rock that I couldn't reach, and they just stood there till I quit since they were the last one left alive.
If I had to guess, Killer felt robbed by the DC's and wanted to make you pay for it.

Did you file a report in game? Because that's what they do against taking the game hostage, they ban people who do it, but you need to report them.

I did and sent them the link as video proof too.

What you can do now against killers who body block:
Use Clairvoyance, Mikaela's new perk and cleanse a totem. Clairvoyance allows you to move other players even while they aren't moving. If they are in animation you can phase right through them.
You have to be channeling the perk to do it. It has gotten me out of multiple hard and BS situations already, like:
Wraith bodyblocking a pallet or window.
Survivors bodyblocking me from going out of the gate with a killer on my ass.
Try it while it lasts!

This is not a killer problem, this is an ######### problem.
If they play survivor, they probably act like a dick then, as well.

They are deleting my responses and jailed me.
I quit for good, bye everyone.

I have seen other post where people DC'd and the remaining survivor moaned because the killer killed them. They said that the killer should have let them do gens and escape.
Now we have a post because the killer did not kill, maybe the killer was trying to be nice and let you wiggle and do gens, both getting BP.
It seems like there are some times when the killer does not know what to do for the best. I have been in both situations, killed and been argued with, not killed and been argued with.

There is nothing to see, though.
As far as I know, none of my complaints were enforeced, and it's not like they tell you or thank you.
Given how many hackers there have been, I have doubt in the report system.

No, if my video was not removed you would have seen it.
They did not let me touch a gen, they downed me not long after me wriggling free. In the end they body blocked me for over 8 minutes.
The video goes live at 11.05pm gmt, 20 minutes after this response, on serenitysologamer channel on you tube, I'm not allowed to post it here as it got me 'jailed' hence the icon next to my name.
Just look up the 'nurse takes the game hostage' at that time. You will see the killer was not being nice.

I just don't get how the dev's have implemented the Idle Charlotte solution for body-blocking:
If a killer or survivor hasn't moved in a significant amount of time(30+ seconds) then they lose collision player until they move for X seconds and Y meters away from said spot.
This would stop both sides from body blocking someone in a corner and trust me survivors love pulling this too on other survivors...Usually 3 man SWF against solo queue survivors.

Killing someone isn't against the rules, not killing someone isn't against the rules... but putting someone in a situation where the only way out of the match is to disconnect by blocking them in a corner for 8+ minutes is against the rules. The purest form of keeping someone hostage that exists and not in any way similar to people whining about a player doing something completely legal.

I agree, something definitely needs to be done about it. As you say survivors can do it too, I experience it more from survivors than killers. This was the first killer I have gone against that did this.

this is a cool idea
