Where do you stand on the ds-locker tech conversation?

    If you had the option of being downed on the floor for 60 seconds or running into a locker so you can actually do something, which would you choose?

    Not gonna lie, this is amazing what they did. Sure, 3 DS, but I like when players are fooling around like that. Would have probably laughed my ass off as Killer and let them get away, lol.

    Regarding DS and Lockers - usually I only use Lockers when I am on Death Hook and my DS is running out because the Killer takes around a minute to get me after chasing after me after the Unhook OR when a Mori is used.

    Other than that, I dont go into Lockers.

    I think locker DS is fine, and that clip was hilarious. Three people back to back from the same locker, I wouldn’t even be mad lmao.

    It's only a "tech" if you let it be.

    It's your choice to open it

    Clip was funny. =]

    How badly did they have to be to get three hooks in under a minute. . .

    Not a problem you force the killer to choose between leaving you or eating DS.

    That clip was pretty funny though. He could have avoided it by just not grabbing them from a locker each time. After the second DS I woulda know the third guy did it too.

    I think it's stupid that the perk allows this, but I can't blame survivors for using it in that manner.

    He shouldn't have tunneled /S

    Honestly I have no problem with the locker take as long as you're not massively annoying and spamming the locking vault I have no problem.


    Honestly the only problems with defensive strike I have is typically when somebody uses it has a free way to pop a generator, break a hex totem or get a hook save when they would have been punished for making such a stupid move.

    That and the fact that if you're efficient enough in chases you can actually down one or two other people and still get hit with the first initial decisive strike despite the fact that you clearly weren't tunneling


    Outside of those two glaring issues I honestly think the locker tech is a good thing.

    The survivor chooses to waste time by hopping in a locker and hiding them more power to them also Killers like Trapper can counter it by essentially forcing you to stay in the locker by trapping it

    There are some gens next to lockers, so that means you either eat the ds or let the survivor work on a gen for about 40 seconds or so, assuming you come across a survivor who was recently unhooked. Eating a ds in some scenarios can make you lose momentum and so can letting a survivor work on a gen for 40 seconds.

    For me the problem with DS is not the locker tech, it's the fact that it remains active even when you are clearly not being tunneled.

    Depends where the games at, I can be patrolling gens and randomly come across a survivor that jumps in a locker. Sometimes I’ll just eat the DS, sometimes they miss it, sometimes it’s a bluff.
