sorry for my bad English.


I am survivor.Other 3 survivor are basement,and killer bodyblocks they.

Now, all Generator are repaired,but gates are not opened.


For me,if I open the gate,endgame collapse starts,and other 3 survivor will die,cannot open.

But for killer,he do not have to move.because he can kill 3 survivors if I open the gate.Both I and killer cannot do nothing.

in this case,which is the man that holding the game hostage? me? or killer?And what should I do in this case?

    Game can still end without DCs. Now, if all four of you are stuck, that is a problem.

    Open the gate,or go to basement to make killer move is best way and for me.

    Is only one gate 'powered' that starts the Collapse? There might be a gate to open that doesn't start the timer. I don't know.

    This situation is gonna become pretty common sadly, some kilers wanna abuse endgame mechanic, survivor's outside dont want to let them, thus spawning a new kind of standoff

    Yeah, but I do like the intensity of a doomsday ending. I think it's a great addition, and remember some killers might just want you out anyway, so they'll open the gate and start the process to flush you out. I'm really looking forward to it. Fighting off the Entity is a really cool concept and it makes sense from a lore perspective as well, since it still needs to eat, after all.

    @Coriander The Collapse starts when one of the exit gates has been opened. It doesn't matter which gate.

    Just make both killers and survivors lose collision after a decent amount of time has been spent stationary/in the same immediate area. Make it like somewhere between 30 second and a minute so killers can still block basement to counter borrowed time.

    For survivors NOTHING of value is lost. When do you need 30+ seconds of consecutive collision as survivor? Exactly, to bodyblock other survivors in corners or exploit vs the killer if new spots like the old harvester exploit are discovered. Wouldn't hurt them at all.

    And the only real tactics it would destroy as killer would be crouch-blocking a survivor with a trap as Pig, as well as blocking people in the basement for the exact reason OP specified (or to genuinely take the game hostage by blocking all 4 down there or something)

    I'm all for the basement being a dangerous and risky place to go, but it rubs me the wrong way that a killer can just go afk with 3 survivors trapped and get 3 kills if the last survivor opens a gate, that's just silly.
