Why Stillness crows need changing
I am sick to death of being caught in a stalemate. You all know the one. Two survs are dead, and the last two are hiding, waiting for the other to be found so they can get hatch. I should not have to search the entire map, with all the nooks and crannies, to find one guy, only for the other to get the hatch, and I should not have to hide for 20 minutes waiting for the other guy to be found.
So, my solution?
Stillness crows happen when you dont touch a gen, totem, trap, hook etc. for 30 seconds. Then they slowly ramp up to the noise notifications as they do now.

Youre right, but stillness crows should
be something that surv players need to think about before they play super immersed.

the real problem is the hatch. The hatch is a free escape for the last survivor, so of course survivors are gonna just hide in the nearest bush till the other guys dies.

Just remove hatch, problem solved.

Whispers.
Done.

Whispers only gives a general idea of where they are. If they find a good enough bush, you'll still never find them and theyll sneak to the hatch

I like my idea better. Just have a time limit on the match. 20 minutes.

30 seconds is WAY too short. Especially if you're totem hunting. You know, like we're always told we should do if we want to make sure not to have NoED?

As a survivor, I want this. 30 sec ist too short tho.

I was just throwing out a number. 2 minutes is much fairer.

Yes. I was just tossing a random number. A ballpark of 2 minutes is much more fair

Isnt it 1min for the 1st crow, then 90sec for 2nd and 2min for 3rd crow?
Beside, crouch walking once every 30sec is not a big deal. Crows only appear when standing still.

No. Problem not solved. In fact, I would go so far as you say that you don't understand the problem to begin with. The problem lies in the fact that when there are only 2 survivors there isn't a feasible way for them to complete generators and escape through the exit gates like normal. Therefore the survivors don't want to die so what option do they have? Currently the only option is the hatch. Take away the hatch and what do you have? Answer: Nothing. There is no feasible way for survivors to escape.
What do you think is more likely? The survivors just walking up to the killer and offering themselves as sacrifice or the survivors crawling around the map wasting the killers time as petty revenge? I can tell you for a fact they will just waste as much time as possible the majority of the time. No hatch means survivors wasting killer's time. The hatch exists as much for the killers benefit as it does the survivor. If you can't understand that basic premise then you don't understand the issue at all.

Your solution isn't a solution at all. Whether it is 30 seconds or 2 minutes it would be easily gamed. Just crawl over and touch a gen for 2 seconds and crawl away when the killer isn't nearby. Nothing would change. An actual solution would be to make it when 2 survivors are dead the remaining survivors get a 30% bonus to generator repair speed. Then they might be inclined to actually try and work on generators instead of waiting for the other guy to die.
