Notification Spamming Needs To Be Fixed

Extremely irritating when a survivor get's off hook and immediatly runs to a locker and starts spamming it to annoy the Killer into coming to take their Decisive Strike and/or Head On. Also when a survivor in a SWF just wants to take the Killers attention to be chased. It's unbalanced because as Killer you rely heavily on being able to hear sounds, especially noise notificatios to know where survivors are, or have sound ques for when events happen. Spamming windows, lockers, and pallets makes it impossible to hear sounds. It's unfun, unfair, and annoying.

If you are just going to come into this thread and say "It's a legitimate strategy" it's not, and I highly doubt anyone at BHVR intended it.

My suggestion is that after a survivor performs a fast action 3 times on one object it stops sending the killer notifications for that object they are spamming. I am sure that won't fix the issue as they could just switch to another object, but it's a start. At the same time I imagine it should be a bannable offense for either exploiting or griefing.

    I guess I should thank my mom for helping me develop the ability to tune out things. I am above godmode at tuning things out 😂, at least sober me is...

    I've had teams like this in the past. Usually it's the ones that go clicky clicky, and when I don't give them attention, they resort to window spamming. Very annoying, especially if I'm trying to track my target with sound. The other group that does this is when they find the hatch or gate and want to gloat.

    just change the noise that plays to something less loud
