Survivors killing themself on first hook

Now we have basekit BT. Soon basekit deliverence.

When and what will you do at least about those survivors, who kill themself on first hook, usuall at 5 or 4 gens? In those situation not even useless bots replace them, and many match lost cause of this. And they got no penalty at all, only we suck who stay in the game

    To be fair, despite the AFC being pretty abusable in it's PTB state, the sheer fact that in most games there will be kobes will likely drastically reduce the amount of DC/die on first hook.

    They will be able to unhook themself if the killer hard camps them. But they don't care about camping. The killer leaves them, people go for the unhook, and they still kill themself. It is nothing to do with camping, people just say "f this #########" at first down. And it ruins the game for 4 people (even as a killer games like this is not fun)

    The most effective way to deal with that is apparently also controversial: make it so the game is fun.

    The biggest contributor to this is the fact that tunneling is so prevalent. If you're first downed, you probably just aren't going to be able to play that game. Unlucky for you, but the answer is to go next.

    But if tunneling wasn't as effective, you'd still likely be able to play the game despite being first downed, and deaths like this would reduce.

    But entity forbid we touch tunneling as a 'strategy'.
