Hatch

The killers shouldn’t be able to permanently close the hatch, because once they do, they would only go back and forth between the gates and it’s nearly impossible for a single survivor to open it while being chased. Either they can’t close it or they can only temporarily close it.

    I think Hatch should be trappable by the Killer, and when the Survivor try to jump in it, he instantly get moried.

    That's the point. After closing the hatch, escaping for survivor should be near impossible. Unfortunately, that all is dependant on RNG (and if killer brought Remember Me/No Way Out)

    It's not supposed to be possible at that point, the killer deserves the 4k

    If you got to the point where your only means of escape is though the hatch then the killer has won.You are not suppose to get a free escape or even a fair chance after you lost collectively as a team.Said mechanic exists to give survivors hope and a reason to go through with a trial which seems doomed as well as avoiding the situation in which the last survivor hides forever.

    I think exit gates needs better placement, a killer can just stand in the middle of the map and watch both gates

    If you have already both failed to finish the generators as well as failed to escape through the hatch before the killer closes it, then you have already lost. It is meant to be very difficult to escape at that point.
