New function

So the end game collapse was made to prevent the game from being held hostage by the survivors and to add pressure to gates. I agree with this to many survivors took advantage of this. Can we add a new function for survivors so the kills can't hold you hostage like a intentional bleed out button that makes die faster cause the slugging for intentional gameplay trolling is just getting out of hand. Again I know there is slugging for the 4k but there also slugging just for the trolls cause now you can't just leave a game if you being held hostage. If the bleed out button doesn't work than maybe a forfeit button instead of leave match

    Maybe they can add an alter in the middle of the map that you can sacrifice yourself to if you're in the dying state.

    I've wanted a similar thing since a long time ago. They always had the struggle phase allow you to just let go any time you want practically so I never understood why not just have the option for slugging.

    One thing I will say though, is I don't think slugging is truly holding the game hostage. You will eventually bleed out, so I wouldn't go as far as to say something like that personally.

    That is correct - slugging is not holding the game hostage. Holding the game hostage is when one side cannot choose to end the game without disconnecting, most commonly because a killer is trapping all remaining survivors somewhere that they can't leave (like the basement).

    Slugging has a maximum 4-minute bleedout timer before the survivor dies. Yes, it can feel bad if the killer just leaves you to bleed for those 4 minutes, but it does not break game rules.

    Already brought this up a number of times and I just dont see any negative part to this.

    Imo when you are slugged and your recover bar is full, you can go for a second recovery bar that takes X long to fill at the end of which you die.

    You should even ,imo, get points for that under the header "on your own terms".


    Seriously if anyone is against this, explain to me why.

    If you can bleedout at any moment you can simply just give up playing the game as you would when people die on first hook by trying to escape and then not struggling. Plenty of times killers will slug because they're chasing more survivors if there was a bunch grouped together, if you simply bleed out right there and then you're robbing your teammates of a player and the killer from points, thus contributing to whatever toxicity you were trying to counter. Rarely do people slug to be toxic, and even then just tab out? Its not really that long, imo that would bring more problems than it solves.
