2v8 face camping
Why is this allowed? Why don't cages move?

I thought they only didn't move if a survivor was in the area. Did they change that?

yeah, not sure if it's bugged or if it was removed, but the killer can camp with no one in the area and the cage won't move

It's not bugged. I went into a 2v8 game as a killer and wanted to test it. So I found someone in a cage and stood in front of them. After a short while, their cage was moved. I can only assume if people are able to camp a caged survivor, it's because another survivor was near by and they were not aware of this.

I guess it would make sense end game and I am totally fine with that but I am not sure why they removed it altogether.
It can and in my experience most definitely has made tunnelling off hook (cage) a lot more accessible to killers who resort to that.

It does feel like something about the cage respawn has changed; there's significantly less of it, even if a killer is pretty close and no survivor is (there are a few trappers who seem to get a kick out of trapping a cage and going back and forth between that cage and the closest 2-3 gens. — And I do feel the time it takes to approach the cage with a trap, place and sometimes replace the trap and leave the caged area again should be more than long enough to trigger a respawn).

Its part of the game, just deal with it

Nothing screams exciting and engaging gameplay like killers who face camp.

just because you couldnt reproduce it doesnt mean it cant be bugged.. bugs can occur under specific circumstances but not under others.
You just confirmed it isnt buggy every time

or I just confirmed it's working how it's suppose to because a survivor wasn't near by. If a survivor is near by, it won't move the cage. They have confirmed this during the last 2v8 update, or the one before that (can't remember which) People were getting annoyed they couldn't rescue because a killer was near by and it moved the cage on them.
However this is flawed because you can only uncage from the front, not the sides. So someone can stand directly in front of a cage and a survivor wouldn't be able to unhook and because the survivor isn't moving away from the cage - the cage stays there.

Lol who wants to wait in a 25 minute queue to face camp unless the survivor was BMing or something

so one killer says it’s working but there is more proof it isn’t. I have watched while my teammates are across the Board and the killer is circling and I still don’t move.

yk what's even more exciting? 3 Guides helping team finish the match in 5 minutes

2v8 is obnoxious with all the gen rushing. I tried holding a 3 gen and it didn't help, you can't do anything

I'd really like to believe it's a bug and I'm hoping for it to be fixed on the next patch.

Its probably for the best imo; face camping kills pressure trading 1 whole killer to remove 1 survivor doesn't sound efficient to me.
However, a face camper triggering the cage move forces the killer to move, keeping some pressure while roughly guessing where the cage will be anyways, allowing you to time rescues.
Oh, and you can kill survivors by moving Cages. Makes last second saves impossible if the killer moves the cage

Wait a minute, are you telling me survivors just need to do YT research and become better survivors? Arent Killers suppose to babysit survivors and play for their fun? (im being sarcastic btw). Honestly, thats how I became a better Killer main by watch YTers playing killer, and im decent as survivor from all the years of facing swfs as killer. Still crazy the survivor community still claim its impossible to escape or that camping/tunneling/slugging happens every match

You confirmed that it's a bug then, and that BHVR didn't intend for it to be removed.
I was in a cage with a killer who camped me and I did not move locations. When you are in a cage you can see the auras of survivors. And I'm pretty sure the opposite side of gallows map is far enough away.
I believe there was someone else caged near me.... I wonder if that was the other survivor nearby, lol.

Can you record when this happens next time? I'll make sure to record when I play survivor to see if the same happens to me and upload it. Right now people are saying "no this happened to me" and I'm honestly curious because I'm not seeing this happen to me. It will also help to see what could be causing the bug if there is one.

It's confirmed a bug but since devs haven't fixed wesker game breaking grab bug in a iteration don't get your hope up being fixed anytime soon

Yeah, I can try. I typically don't record, but I think I know how.
