How do we fix “ tunneling “

Don't you just love Blendettes?

i always go away from the hook and if the survivor gets unhooked, i don't go back, i patrol gens or chase someone else. if i go back to hook then the others have more time to get gens done, however, if someone unhooked another survivor in front of me, i would just go after the person that unhooked. it happened the other day when i was killer. a claudette, got the david off as soon as i hooked him (without BT), I went to hit her but accidentally got him and downed him. i left him on the ground and went after the claudette. downed her, hooked her next to the david on the ground then walked away so someone could get him up. i don't want an easy game other wise its boring and it also makes it a crap experience for the survivor that keeps getting downed that fast. I still managed to get a 4k. But I agree with DisappointedUser, those situations are not tunneling.

I can give you an example of tunneling.....i had a game where the killer found me within 30 seconds of spawning, hooked me, someone got me off, killer broke chase with someone else to come back to me, downed me, i used ds and he kept coming for me, downed me again and hooked me, someone got me off and the killer came back after me again. team mates tried getting in the way and taking hits and blocking but the killer had no interest in any of them, he kept going around them or hitting them to get them out of the way and continued after me.

You don't fix it. Killers tunnel because it makes our end goal easier: Kill all Survivors.

The main reason I started doing it is because you always get that one or two people who follow you around trying to bait you into chasing them instead of the person that just got unhooked. Now you have 2 to 3 people not doing gens. Sounds like a win to me.

To prevent 'Tunneling' as you call it, Killers would need a VERY good reason to not do it. Not a punishment either, a big juicy reward.

AKA, Give killers a solid reward for not focusing down 1 survivor. Use a carrot on us, not a stick.

Exxodus's 'exposed' game mechanic idea above seems appealing. It could help punish careless or callous survivor teammates, then might also affect their Altruism points and possibly their rank---the game is very unforgiving of unsafe unhooks. Add in the killer's incentive to go after the unhooker for the equally easy down and...yeah.

The downside might be dying on first hook more often because no one is willing to commit to the unhook, but hello, Kindred + Deliverance, I guess? I don't know. It's hard to offer an attractive alternative to hard tunneling because the tactic can be devastating to potatoes like me. And unfortunately, there are a lot of us.

Debatable. Personally, I would call what you're describing "hard tunnelling". But it's actually completely beside the point. OP is trying to brainstorm ways to make situations like the one he described, which is strategically advantageous for the killer but really not fun for the survivor, feel less necessary for the killer and therefore less common overall. Since they made it clear what they were talking about, whether you want to describe that as "tunnelling" or not is irrelevant.

I think when the old RUIN was still played, I did not complain about the ruin as a survivor, on the contrary I knew it would be a complicated game, but sometimes I had fun, as a killer I had time to find one or two and hook them without that a gen was made, the ruin was perfect, too bad they are ruining the game, modifying the ruin without having adequate accommodation against gen rush have simply ruined the gamplay, playing as a killer after 2/3 game I no longer want, I am rank 3 but to keep it I have to sweat the whole game and sometimes perform tunneling, even if I don't want to do it but I understand very well everyone knows how to do skill chek, and therefore they are dangerous, I managed to find people in rank 2 with seventy 72 hours of play , they didn't know how to make a decent loop, what did they get by changing the ruin? a game where the killer is made fun of, mocked and if you kill two they also give you noob, I don't know how much longer this situation can continue, but soon many will set to play killer, the situation of the houses can be seen that has changed, now you can see it, but the fact that the gen rush has stopped does not change. I don't really know how to do it, I try all perk, I try to be more in patron on the gen but often I can not get to the gen in time to finish it and tepo that I take one another 2 gen are gone. advise me what to do and how to play. the surv only think about doing gen, let's do something else that makes them look for at least something before starting to make gen, tools that should look for random places like gen, tools that allow you to do gen, or something like that , there are many ideas of how to fix the game and make it balanced, but does anyone listen to us?
