Why is it okay for killers to waste 3+ minutes of a survivors time but not the other way around?

    Honestly, I would like to see a Conceded option for both sides. There would be requirements though.

    1. At least 3 Gens have to be powered before Killers can concede.
    2. Have to be last man standing as Survivor to concede.

    I would like it to be wider spectrum and allow for concede at earlier times, but there is too much potential for abuse then. Killers would just concede right off the bat against SWF groups and make their wait times finding a game even more massive. Survivors would just auto concede against "X" Killer they don't like (Nurse mostly). Killers would just drop it at Loopers, Survivors would just drop it at camp/tunnel.

    How can you say it's double standard when survivor had option to hold your game hostage much, much longer than 4 minutes? only recently end game collapse changed that, which was nice quality of life change for killers.

    Back in the old days i was forced to run whispers, becouse if i managed to kill all 3 survivors before hatch appearing, last survivor was unlikely to even attempt to repair gens and just hide until i EVENTUALLY found him.

    Simple fix. If the last survivor is in dying state for 10 seconds, they get a concede button and the EGC animation finishes the match, giving the BP award for the survivor bleeding out. If the killer has the last survivor down, there is no reason to slug them other than to taunt. That is not helping the toxicity levels in this game. End it and move on.

    If I slugged one and downed the 4th, I have roughly 20 seconds to find and pick up the slugged survivor. Approximately 5 to 10 seconds for the survivor hook response and death animation and 10 seconds of last survivor being in dying state. More than enough time, or I should get better at the process.

    Personally, I rarely slug the 3rd survivor unless the 4th is right there. Too sweaty for me to care if I get 3k vs 4k, but I'm more laid back in this game than some.

    Like I said in my post EGC isn't the double standard it is the fact that it got shortened because 3 minutes of taunting was "to long" for killers. I think EGC is a great life change for the game but I do think that there should be a concede option. I someone else commented that there should be one for both killers and survivors I agree.


    If exit gates have been powered for 60 seconds killers should be able to concede giving the survivors escape points.


    If the last survivor is slugged or all survivors have been slugged for over 60 seconds they should be able to concede (unless a cypress Mori is in play)


    I think both of these options would bring less toxic behaviour to the game and be a good quality of life change. It stops survivors 99% the exit to taunt killer and makes it so that killers can't taunt survivors for over a minute. Both sides are toxic, having survivor mains be toxic and hold the game hostage was shity and sucked (I know I play killer) but that doesn't mean that we should go all out on wasting other peoples time. All I want is the DC meta to end to be honest but I do think a concede button will help with this because lots of killers DC as the exit gates are powered because they don't want survivors to get points and lots of survivors DC when they are the last down to try to avoid the killer getting points (bbq stacks and such)

    @Black_Fence I play both sides so I just want to say this. This is coming from my survivor side. If you loop a killer or outplay a killer for too long and they finally catch you with 1-2 gens left, they'll probably face camp you, slug and follow you around like a puppy or wait until you bleed to death. I have screenshots of such things on my profile. I'm not saying, "Sucks to be you." I'm saying is this. You outplayed him. He got salty. He wanted revenge. He got it. I'm not saying that's nice but if you're a good survivor, a bad killer will always try to ruin your day. Trust me. I know.
