Wasn't mentioned, but will Survivors in the dying state with an available Active Ability be able to immediately use it to pick themselves up? Would they need to recover some amount? Not sure how great it would be to have a survivor be able to immediately pop up while the Killer is in their attack recovery animation.

Regarding Hooks increasing Gen speeds, wouldn't that promote singling out Survivors and tunneling them out quickly to reduce the total number of survivors that could potentially benefit from that boost (and keeping the boost low?)

Would it be better to only increase the speeds if a Survivor is Killed? (and more easily presented as the Survivors becoming more frantic at Death approaching them? While completing gens makes them a bit more complacent)
