Allow for self-termination while slugged

I saw a question recently where someone mentioned the idea of allowing survivors that are slugged to self-terminate instead of waiting for the bleed out.

I would ask if it has ever been considered to allow survivors to choose to "bleed out" faster with a simple button press or holding of a button ...since in effect, a hooked survivor can "attempt to escape" and accelerate their demise if they wish to leave a match... perhaps this option should be made available to slugged survivors. It doesn't mean they have to take it....but its all about options.

  • the option to ######### on hook exists and that causes enough issues as it is

    I get where you are coming from, but the same as everything else, like the try to unhook option it would be abused something awful just like the unhook mechanic, to be able to "disconnect" while avoiding the penalty.


    I am not saying everyone would abuse it but you can't argue the fact that there is a good amount of folk that would.

    If you dont self heal up to the max you should start bleeding out twice as fast.

    Maybe if survivor would be on the ground for whole 2 minutes or longer then option like that could appear, but we have to remember that killer who slugged you to accomplish something else in meantime, like catching another survivor, doesn't deserve to lose those Sacrifice points if they didn't pick you up. Of course suicide like this could give killer instantly those points, but the easiest solution to this problem (at least for devs) is just doing nothing as it is not that big problem and no one really is unfairly punished.
