Controversial: If survivors "tunnel gens" is it fair for the killer to tunnel survivors?

Yes but the risk is FAR greater than the reword. While all the other survivors are doing gens you're chasing just the one.

What should a survivor be doing then?

I propose a rework to overcharge. When the killer kicks a gen, he receives a skill check, and if successful, the gen gets "overcharged" for 60 seconds, and the next survivor to touch it during that time gets instantly downed. This can be used 4 times per game, to match the 4 DS strikes possible per game.

There would be no indication the perk is in game, and Any survivor who doesn't like it has the option of not tunnelling gens.

I've proposed this quite a lot, always to the rage and fury of survivors in forums. Yet now we have Dragon's grip, which is a weaker version of my suggestion that isn't the direct equivalent of DS I designed. It doesn't last as long, and also requires the killer to have the skill to catch you with a basic attack before the times runs out and stay close enough to that gen to take advantage, with a longer cooldown to boot. Kind of makes you wonder why DS can't get those limitations, huh?

Hated doing it and hate it done to me but all these sfws got me doing the same.

I seen this too I do feel killers should get some kind of ds for gens I seen survivors on gen all run but one I hit them they still on gen like I didn't hit them and gen pops then down them.

gen anyway go to fast after one chase 2 or 3 gens are done.

Simply no.

You as a Killer want to do your objectives too and of the Survivor Gen rush then why not tunneling? I mean there are thing lile DS to counter it.

if they rush down their objective, so will i.

"off the hook and on the gen, you are ready for the hook again" - i like that phrase. and i play accordingly.

Too true.

All apex predatorial animals focus on the injured/weaken state prey. That prey doesn't get to complain that it was targeted and ended.

The only difference is emotionally humans are driven to do whatever it takes to get to their goal. And the flaw is if it is not going their way, an emotional outburst happens. Whatever emotion controls the situation.

Yeah killers totally dont have slow down perks for gens, and perks, add ons and powers for kill rushing survivors. Ffs it's like killer mains dont even actually play the game.

Unbreakable doesnt extend chase unless you're dumb enough to slug or tunnel. Dont like bt? Grab them off the hook or hit them down before and after they unhook. It's actually that simple.

If you want to tunnel, then tunnel. I find it weird that the majority of killers (and to some extent i agree with this) say that you should play how you want to play regardless of complaints, and then make threads like these to try and justify it. You don't need a silly excuse to tunnel, it is part of the game. Is it fun? Heck no, but we've already established why that is a moot point if you are the type to tunnel.

These silly definitions baffle me. Stop telling each other how to play, your rule book does not contain actual rules.

Survivors, you may not like getting tunneled, but it's here to stay regardless of whether you like it or not.

Killers, sometimes survivors get as much out of getting that last two seconds of a gen done in your face as they will in a chase. It's that "F**k it, i'm commiting moment"

Stop telling your own sides to play how they want while making up silly rules or declaring "If they use this, i can use that"

Use what you damn well like as long as its part of the game. And if the other side don't like it, just turn off the chat and keep doing you. It's got to be easier than this eternal and often hypocritical debate that comes up for every part of the game.

Tunnel by definition means what it means “You focus on one player ignoring the other 3”. Just because the game allows you to do it, doesn’t take away the meaning of it.

I don’t know about tunneling a gen, since you can’t technically chase it.

You have free will as to how YOU want to play. Just don’t be one of those DS crybabies that want tools like DS, nerfed but want to have this free will of tunneling whenever the opportunity arises. I say opportunity because I realize some people don’t tunnel, but the fact that the game allows you to do it means DS is fair game.

Because just as sometimes it is necessary to tunnel, it is sometimes necessary to prioritize a heal over a gen. Any smart survivor knows this.

What are these wonderful tools that stop The Killer from tunneling? There is nothing that stops The Killer from tunneling. You can use Decisive Strike, Borrowed Time, Unbreakable, Soul Guard, Head-on, flashlight save, pallet stun and The Killer will still tunnel you relentlessly.

As far as tunneling generators is concerned, that doesn't make sense. The Killer can regress a survivor's investment in a generator. There is no mechanic or perk that can undo hook States. So it's not like if you ignore a Survivor for so long, that previous Hook is invalidated. On the other hand, a generator at 99% can regress all the way to zero. So it makes sense that a Survivor would want to protect their investment.

With that said, tunnel to your heart's content. It's not against the rules, you're free to tunnel and slug anyone but just remember that sometimes people may be prepared for those moments.

Hi, I play both survivor and killer unlike some. It's not fair to tunnel someone on purpose though, for example, if someone is saved off-hook and you see the survivor that saved them go after them it's not that hard but if you only see the dude you hooked already well too bad they should've run or hidden better. And to those who can't handle a gen rush get better perks, be ready for end game then, use No end and slug everyone 4k right there, its not that hard to play fair.
