Kill Switch update: We have temporarily Kill Switched the Forgotten Ruins Map due to an issue that causes players to become stuck in place. The Map will remain out of rotation until this is resolved.

Slugged players with idle crows should get the option to bleed out by The Entity!

No way Entity is entertained watching a survivor just lay in the grass.

Cannonly speaking, she should allow the release for the survivour.

    Agreed, killers should not be able to slug survivors at the end of the game just to be a dick.

    Yes but Entity shouldn't allow such gameplay. Hopefully Devs will listen. 😇

    Ummm... the Entity makes the same people die over and over again, sometimes fast and sometimes slow. It is an immortal being for whom time has little meaning. The few minutes it takes for slugged Survivors to wait isn't something it would even notice. But that is Lore and silly. It has no bearing on "Game Balance" choices. If you don't want to get slugged, don't get caught. You have plenty of Perks to help you either way.

    Killers don't slug Survivors for any other purpose than to try and win the game. More to the point, every Survivor that makes it out the door makes it more likely that they lose a Pip. The lower a Killer's Rank goes the harder it is to maintain Pips, let along gain any. If there are only two of you left and I don't know where the Hatch is, you are darn right I'm going to slug you both before I hook either of you.

    Idle crows should bring a release to poor sportsmanship.

    Slugged players should not get crows at all imo. If I choose to slug, there should be a real risk that I lose the hook and sacrifice unless I'm running Chili or Deerstalker. I slug from time to time, but I should not be rewarded with crows for it.

    Crows are scavengers, signs of them around slugged bodies should speed up the bleed out timer. First crow speeds up bleed out by like 25%, second crow 50%, if they get a third crow 75% or just have survivor die. If killer doesn't want to lose points from survivor bleeding out they should hook them before crows show up, or at the very least before 3 crows.

    False, there have been many instances where a killer can hook the last survivor and end the game but they force the survivor to stay an extra 4 minutes by bleeding them out for no reason at all but to be a dick.

    Never seen that myself; I play Killer and Survivor equally. And I would gladly condemn that behavior. HOWEVER, that doesn't mean the game needs a balance adjustment. You can report crappy behavior in the system that exists. I'm sure if there was a pattern of it the DEV would notice. But we don't balance a game for the exception, only the rule. And all the Killers I know are playing to win.
