PTB: Feedback to Increased Minus Point Range near Hooked Survivor

Member Posts: 392

I get that camping is a big problem in new Player Games but not being able to stand near a hook for 16m without gettin a invisible Point Punish is just silly far (continue reading before you complain about this).

We need a Indicator in the Killer Screen that shows em they are gettin minus points on the left Side of the Screen (this way you can tell that you are too close and for new Killers they learn that they get minus points Pretty Sure most of the new Killers dont even know that they get minus points!)

Atm takin a Survivor out of the Game is a very good way of takin away Pressure (5 gens are done at arround 4-5min in my Games without RUIN). If you let a Survivor run they will Self-Care and go right for a Gen.

So to make it less attractive to Tunnel your first Survivor and kill him asap you could apply a Repair Speed Debuff to a Unhooked Survivor this way you can let em alive cuz they are less of a Threat than the other 3 Survivors. This Debuff will be gone if the Number of Survivors is decreased ofc (would be bs if only 2 survivor both with a debuff had to repair 4 gens).

And dont forget some Killers are just Toxic (So are Survivor) so even if you punish em with minus Pionts they simply dont care dont punish every Killer

Thanks

    Should be noted: This was already in the game, they simply increased the punishment.

    That being said: I wish they’d reward players for playing in a fun manner rather than punishing them for not.

    Especially since the “punishment” is not ranking up. Because of all those enticing incentives to rank up in this game.

    A suggestion I had the other day.

    Like this new perk that shows survivor auras in terror radius when put into the dying state. Try one that activates when a killer puts a survivor on the hook.

    Some killers camp, but some killers circle the hook because they heard a survivor running behind them while they were carrying to the hook but now they've disappeared. If the killer can chase the survivor away it might help.

    Btw. One issue with this suggestion is that it is a psudo whispers. Why? Because camping the hook has a few conditions before it starts taking points:

    A: 10 seconds must have passed

    B: This cannot be the last survivor

    C: There must not be another survivor within 16 meters of the hook

    That last one is the reason why this doesn't work. When there is a survivor you aren't losing points. So if you go near a survivor that has been hooked for 10 seconds it would instantly tell you if there is a survivor within 16 meters to go for the save

    I think this is a bad idea since someone that wants to camp would use that information to avoid the penalty.

    So to make it less attractive to Tunnel your first Survivor and kill him asap you could apply a Repair Speed Debuff to a Unhooked Survivor this way you can let em alive cuz they are less of a Threat than the other 3 Survivors. 

    I agree with this. We need more incentives to go after the unhooker.

    This should be moved to the PTB feedback zone. Not sure which Mod to @, anyway I've seen LOTS of new Killers not even know about the point drain so an indicator of any kind would help.
