Hatch

I think the hatch timing should be adjusted. If the killer hooks the survivor and your the last one left it shouldnt wait til the entity pulls you up and completely out of the game the killer at that point has more then enough time to get to the hatch if they know where it is or search a decent amount. I believe as soon as the survivors body turns black and disappears it should open.

    The hatch should show as soon as the guy is dead not after the animation has gone through.


    Many time I've sat waiting for the animation to go through.

    Agreed! More than not the killer has the advantage in closing the hatch if both are standing on top. If the survivor finds the hatch first and the killer has to hook the last person I think it would be fair for the hatch to open sooner. Its almost a guaranteed win for killer at this point with the hatch.

    If this change was implemented the killer could easily slug and try to get the remaining player, wouldn't make a difference in that point... :(

    So after 4 survivors failed to repair 5 gens and then escape, and sorry but you can repair 5 gen in less than 4 minutes if you have a good runner in your team, you still give the last survivor that probably left the hooked person to die on their first hook just to get the hatch. As i can see, you guys are fairly new at this game, so you guys don't know how hard is to struggle as a killer in red ranks. Everyone wants to remove the hatch, but of course some yellow ranks made a topic about buffing another survivor chance to escape, because why not, and of course the devs will listen to you

    It's just a game, not a competition. The devs decided for the hatch to open if 0 gens were completed instead of 2 so survivors can still earn a few BP if they're team decided to not play well and die early. Killer still gets massive points and the one survivor remaining gets the hatch points. It sounds very selfish that you think survivors shouldn't get hatch after 0 gens completed. With the state the game is in now the hatch is just another mechanic that will eventually be reworked or removed.

    It's unfair to assume everyone discussing ideas on the forums are new to the game. It's normal for players that have been around since the game came out to discuss the features of it with new players and have a good discussion than to just label everyone with different ideas than yours as fairly new. So what if people are new, they're bringing up good points and ideas, it's not as if these ideas will be implemented in the next update!

    Your in the wrong discussion if you want to start talking about struggling in the red ranks ... thats a balance, map design, game mechanic etc.. issue.
