Survivors bodyblocking the killer

Shadoureon

Its kinda weird a small survivor can crouch on one spot completely blocking a killer twice his size from moving.

I think the killer should be able to push away survivors when walking. When survivors sprint towards hooks to prevent killers from hanging someone theres simply something wrong with the game. Im suprised after all these years this is still the case.

Unhooking from several angles to prevent killers from bodyblocking the unhook function has been provided but nothing was done for killers that tried to hook survivors and got blocked from the function aswell.

I think when you purposely position yourself to prevent a function from popping up it should be concidered using a exploit. Thats why I was happy the facecamp was changed. People got banned for hiding on the building on the Asylum map because it prevented the killer from getting them.

Now I think this should be changed aswell as Pig's bodyblocking the last jigsaw box to prevent you from freeing yourself. You still die eventually but its just pure toxic behaviour in my opinion.

Yes he should be able to do that, but survivors wouldnt like that change and they represent 80% of the wallets

Well I main survivor and I want this Its simply dumb that someone like me runs towards the killer instead of fearing it.

I don't have any problem with body blocking at all. I think game needs these kind of mechanics. If you can't make it to the hook then just slug them and hook the person who tried to body block you. It actually helps killers a lot if you slug them or can hook the person you were trying to. Body blocking creates one more injured easy prey to chase.

The game is really simple as it is and we don't need it to be more simple. Dribbling, body blocking etc. is fine i think.

At present, they've increased the number of hooks that spawn on every map, along with the offerings that can be used to increase that number further. Heck, there's even one that spawns right outside the basement. So as a killer, I know I have multiple options when it's about hooking survivors. In my own case, whenever there are survivors running towards a hook to block or sabo it, I surprise them by changing my path and moving to the other hook. If you look at it that way, I am sure you'll be able to counter this and prove their strategy futile. Good luck!

Edit : If you encounter this problem often, you can always run perks like Agitation, Iron Grasp. For sabo counter, you can go for Hangman's Trick. These perks really waste the time of the survivors who prove to be a hurdle.
