So the hatch in 2v8

The hatch in 2v8 is whack. I got saved from a cage, right next to a hatch by a fellow survivor. They jump in, and it closes in front of my eyes. What the hell is that? I don't understand how that makes any sense in 2v8. I get it probably opens 2 of them, but that entirely screws the survivor being saved or doing the saving. Which in turn doesn't really make playing it out a good deal for either side of that interaction. I feel stupid for thinking I'd actually gotten saved. Maybe I'm just not on socials enough or didn't read enough about 2v8 but I feel like that was a crappy end to that match. If it's posted I'll accept that I'm just dumb. If it's not I don't think that's a good mechanic. Not that 2v8 is going to be around much longer, but I needed to rant just a bit.

    three hatches open across the map when there are only two survivors left alive in the trial. The killer(s) can close them manually, but they also each close if a survivor escapes through them. So the other survivor took one but there were still at most two open hatches you had a chance to find. The other survivor escaping triggers EGC, but you can still potentially escape through a hatch… if you didn’t know.

    There are 2 or three hatches and at least they got you off. I had someone jump into one right in front of me the other day.

    See I did not know there were three that opened. I was entirely unaware of that. So thank you. And while that's fair and I appreciate the save it was my wife. We do play together pretty often.and she wasn't aware of that either. So thank you, that does help me feel better lol.
