Emergency maintenance will be carried out on the Forums from 18.00hrs EDT for approximately 2 hours, there may be trouble accessing the forums during that time. Thank you for your patience.

Generator abuse, infinite repair kits.

Seeing all over survivors repairing, then dropping the repair, start repairing again just to avoid all the skill checks, together with new parts and other addons you can just pop all the generators fast as heck without doing any skill checks...its getting to the point as a killer player that i am generators just pop 3 in under 1 minute, you wont even get the first hook if you dont find a target fast, its getting rediculous, there is no punishment for doing that, and with no skill checks you never fail even if you got all the generators debuffs in game.

    At what rank are you playing if I may ask ? I have never seen what you describe.

    Generator tapping is weird though, I give you that.

    Well im rank 15 atm but im playing against people from lvl 4-20 oddly enough, some teams are players at rank 5 all of em, have no clue how to the ranking system is working because some teams, when they do this its like ....arf not again...hunt 1 and make sure to kill that person if he is carrying a toolbox, because with 90% certainty he is using "New Parts" and an additional addon to pop those stuff, one team just wrecked everything on the map, hooks generators pop pop pop, i was like "Whaaat" how the heck am i supposed to be able to chase someone for 20 seconds? i cant even afford that as a killer anymore. And in the end they still got their toolboxes left, i dont get it, how do they not break, and how many of these "New Parts" does everyone run around with always 2 or 3 peeps per game with these, and they cost 8k bloodpoints each.

    Gen tapping has been a thing since Ruin was put in the game. Supposedly the devs said it's a legitimate counterstrategy though, so expect it to be there forever. It completely negates a Perk, and it doesn't slow down gen progression much at all if done properly.

    People are burning their BNPs now since the Devs announced the possible change to them. Not that it's actually going live, it'll be in the PTB no doubt, and considering the fuss already going around it'll never make it to a live build. But, if it gets those things out of the game faster, go right ahead and burn them.

    I think you are running into ppl with Leader and tool boxes. Having SWF and all having just those 2 things make gens go faaaassst. Add in Prove Thyself and well... It's a 3 min. game. It is sooooo incredibly rare though to find teams that run that. Most just want to be toxic with flashlights. BNP is a rare perk but if you get a mix of what was mentioned up above and BNP it also makes for a short game. Again, those are rare. They would rather run DS / BT / SB / SC with looping and flashlights being their strat.
