It would be nice if maps would be useful again. Such as the "BLACK LOCK" tracking. when it actually would show the hatch aura from a decent distance and didn't burn up in 2 seconds (even with special add ons). What would be even better is if it would show the HATCH spawn location any time we used it, even before it would appear before us. Since killers just beeline it to the hatch to slam it shut anyway. We don't ever get a fair chance at exiting the level since gates are 90 degrees from one another.

As it stands today and I quote "pink maps are only useful for the outhouse we don't see by the campfire, off screen. I mean survivors do need a way to wipe after a trial"

    i like rainbow maps, they’re pretty underrated tbh

    and like Blueberry said, they’re pretty good now with the new Ruin+Undying meta.

    Are you claiming pink maps to underpowered in the current Hex meta?

    Rainbow Burrito is fine.

    The regular Burrito? it's terrible.

    Wouldn't mind Maps getting an update though, especially the add ons.

    It's so weird seeing you without the Spirit display pic

    This.

    Green Maps absolutely suck; Pink Maps are okay as long as you're either able to relay the information you get (Crystal Bead/voice chat) or act on it yourself.

    Even then though, unless the Killer is Trapper or Hag, you'd probably be a lot better off just sacrificing a perk slot for Detective's Hunch and using a Medkit instead of a Map.

    And IMO every Survivor item and their add-ons could do with an overhaul. They tend to either be worthless or crazy strong, with virtually no in between.

    What I wish is that they buffed green maps

    Us killers have to struggle with getting to the hatch then getting to the doors. Trust me we have the same problem. Its a large distance and if we guess wrong it could cost us the entire match.

    Maps are useful for other things besides tracking the Hatch for an escape though.

    Such as tracking totems so you can break them in this rising Hex meta.

    I'd say pink burrito is mediocre at best for the absolute NEW player and the green burrito is 100% useless. I think at some point if I remember right.. didn't the burrito's do a better job at tracking things like the black locks (Hatch). So we knew where they were located at a further distance?

    Today, the hatch is only TRACKED if a person has walked over the hatch or was VERY, VERY close to it. Otherwise the add-ons serve no purpose. Even with the Bill Perks swapped to one of them being a hatch tracker. it isn't that great.

    I guess what I would like to see; is the map becoming more of a pest towards killers. So if they see a survivor with the map. They have a rough idea what they are going to do. This game has one lighting now and finding generators aren't that hard. So once a person grasps the concept of the game. A person is NEVER going to run "map" ever again. Even WITH exit gates now having their location shown for a few seconds.

    eh. who knows! lol.

    "We don't ever get a fair chance at exiting the level since gates are 90 degrees from one another."

    You do know the hatch and end game collapse are designed to NOT be fair chances for you to get away, and to, in fact, be unfair chances for you to get away from someone who has legitimately won the game fair and square, right?

    I actually haven't had the Spirit display pic for at least 6 months.

    I just change it to whatever I'm currently having the most fun on at the moment.

    We should ask the devs the real reason they put the hatch into the game then? How about we just OMIT it all together then? I play killer more than survivor. Just for the fact that the rewards in this game aren't what they use to be. As killer. I never once expected a match to be handed to me, right up until the end even!

    Today with the hatch closing stuff. I notice MORE matches where players GIVE UP early game. I'd say that is plenty of proof right there for me to agree hatch closing wasn't a good idea.
