Accept the 3k or go for the 4k

What do you guys do hook the third and accept the 3k (or in some slim chances just hope you still find the fourth) or slug and go through easily the most monotonous part of the game personally I've found the hatch end game to be so boring for all parties at this point that I just go for the 3k and 80% of the time the moment they die the last survivor instantly escapes through hatch. I've come to accept it.

    I just do whatever. Sometimes I slug, sometimes I don't.

    Slug the 3rd and hook the 4th.


    Unless the forth bends the knee. Kneel before me and accept your fate. I’ll carry you to where you need to be then I’ll hook the third and allow you to escape.


    But don’t you dare wiggle... my mercy has limits.

    I just kill.

    Sometimes it leads to a 4k, sometimes not.

    Yeah Hatch is probably the most boring part of the game, I usually just tab out when there's one survivor left unless I see them, It's just not fun trying to find a hiding person or guard the hatch.

    Besides there's not much you can do anyways in terms of hatch apart from a stand off and that's a whole new level of boring.

    Depends if the survivor is in my line of sight or not whenever i down the 3rd one, i'm not gonna slug and prolong the game for just some bloodpoints. I hate being slugged and I do not feel like doing that to others... unless they've been very unpleasant to play with.

    Depends on killer, perks and so on. I never kill the 3rd survivor if I have yet to obtain the BBQ token from the 4th, but otherwise I tend to kill to make the match end faster. If I'm running whispers or a stealthy killer or Doctor, I kill and try to see if I can find the last survivor before they find the hatch.

    3K, so the game is finished. Except I feel that I deserve the 4K or the last Survivor was quite annoying, then I aim for the 4K.

    But honestly I think that a 3K with Hatch Escape (while not all Gens are powered) should count as a 4K... Would avoid Hatch Standoffs, as long as the Killer is not super-sweaty.

    Yeah I find if I'm playing more killer I have to go for 3k or else become angry or bored but if I'm playing both I tend to go for the occasional 4k

    Agreed as someone who plays both sides being slugged is not nice which is one of the reasons I usually just hook and be done with it lately.

  • Petraaahh
    Petraaahh Member Posts: 208

    Yes it would be nice if perhaps killers got a bonus for hatch escape that way both sides would feel better about it.

    It all depends on if i need that 2500 deviousness for not letting anybody escape.

    Depends if I like the survivors from that game.

  • ColonGlock

    I have only slugged the 3rd if I can see the 4th or going for an adept achievement. Otherwise hook and book and lets the fates decide.

  • Aven_Fallen
    Aven_Fallen Member Posts: 16,343

    Exactly that. There is no real reason why the Killer should have a disadvantage because of the Hatch. And counting it as a 4K when one Escapes through the Hatch would solve a lot of things. Would it simply make better for both sides.

    I mostly aim for a 3k and attempt a 4k. On rare occasions I may slug the 3rd Person and attempt a 4k... hilariously enough I get more 4ks when I hook the 3rd Survivor and jus look for the 4th rather than slug xD.

    depends on my mood.

    if i am pissed off, i am tryharding for the 4k

    usually i take the 3k and give the last one the chance to get the hatch. sometimes it ends in a 4k, sometimes in a 3k.

    I usually just take the 3k unless the survivors were um "special" or I'm in a position where I could get the 4k
