Tips or tricks or balance GEN RUSHING

Just a simple post. Can the devs do something about gen RUSHING, make it more balance or something. As a killer, it kinda discourages me when it takes a total of 14 seconds for 2 gens to be done at the start of the game.

    The problem is this:

    Genrushing is a SWF problem because you can talk with your team who saves, who does gens and which gens etc.

    --> SWF will not be touched.

    Solution for killers:

    Slug, camp, tunnel.

    Watch streamers to improve.

    They had something that fixed this, it was called hex ruin. It's gone now. Dev's won't fix this crap, it makes their precious survivors feel powerful, which makes them more likely to buy cosmetics.

    As a killer, you're replaceable by a fresh batch of killers, which is why you see rank 15 killers going against red rank survivors. Now git gud and learn to pReSSurE gEnS, or find a different game, I hear civilization v is pretty good.

    Play well and run multiple slowdown perks. That should help you out a lot. Also make sure you protect certain gens and give up gens that are too far away.

    You play well enough and it won't be as bad as people try to make out.

    Corrupt Intervention?

    Surveillance for mid game and Discordance for early are pretty awesome for gen information. Generally head towards the gen opposite your spawn and 7/10 you'll find someone.

    I'm talking about when the game first starts. I timed it, within 30 seconds of 6 out of 10 games, no matter what perks I use, or hexes, or what I patrol, or even if I separate the survivors, they still finish at LEAST one gen within 7 to 10 seconds. No matter what. And the second gen within a few seconds after that. I was thinking increase skill checks or something with the times it takes to repair with certain add ons. And I'm mainly talking about console users. The keyboard and mouse users kinda balance each other out. A pc killer can use the A-W Method to gain a lot of distance. Juggling a thumbstick is a bit more challenging

    Ruin never stopped gen rush. They people who had the wherewithal to gen rush could hit the skill checks. Ruin meant nothing to them.

    No one can hit 100% greats over 5 gens. Someone would always be looking for the totem. What killed you was it being destroyed instantly.

    100% no. A high enough proportion that it had no real impact on them? Yes, alot of people could do it. Add in old toolboxes actually being useful and Ruin did nothing against competent survivors.
