Auto Sacrifice on AFK survivors.
Title says it all pretty much. Can we get a system where a survivor gets sacrificed (like EGC) if they are on tripple crows for to long? When your teammate goes AFK it already sucks... if the killer uses this fact to drag out the match by not killing them so hatch wont spawn in... it's worse.
Plus if the AFK is caused by glitches in the map (like totems in locations that let you in but not out again (own experience) ) it would be at least a way to be mercy killed by the entity when the killer does the exact same thing as mentioned above.

If they're popping off crows then you can just hook them yourself with no issues.

If it's one or two crows and they come back shortly after, no.
If it's 3 crows and they been AFK for a very long time, yes. (Wait, you literally said that my bad lmao)

Yeah... the thing is that this would be more to benefit the survivor side instead of the killer one..
After all... why hook an AFK survivor that only slightly annoys you with the crows when you can leave them standing and completely deny things like Hatch?
Unless you're refering to a whole new mechanic in which survivors can drag afk teammates to the hook to kill them themselves for just ditching the match.

No that just never occurred to me. Why wouldn't I want an easy sacrifice?
Just hook the AFK survivor. No messing around.
They went AFK they get punished, and by eliminating them you make the game a 3v1, which is already enough to secure the win.

There teammates are already punished with a 3v1

The 3v1 is already there without you having to waste a hook or even just the little time it takes to put the AFK on a hook.
So.. you already have the main benefit of one Survivor not being in action anymore + not having to spent time hooking them + Not breaking a hook in the process + Making Hatch literally a non-issue for good since it wont spawn till only the AFK is alive + Bonus if you are Oni or Dredge since, if you leave them injured you get your power for free more often or the remaining survivors to spend valuable time to heal them which you can undo in a second.

I guess, but what if they come back from AFK and then escape at the last minute?
I'd just take the free sacrifice, let survivors farm a couple hook rescues from them, and get them out.
I'd rather use them for 3 guaranteed hook scores, than mess around with the hatch.

Generally, when someone got to 3 crows and remains like that for a minute or so it's pretty much guaranteed that they aint coming back. I certainly yet have to see one that did
And yeah.. you and maybe 5% of killers that don't take the easier 4k the AFK gives you (Or see that an AFK is technically worse for the other survs than a Quitter and Grant them that fairer match.

But then how do I punish the survivor that cost us the match by refusing to take any aggro all match, if I run around with the killer I will get accused of working with the killer, if I afk so he knows where I am he can kill me or hunt as his own descision.
