The hatch. wait before you sharpen your knives and prepare to hook me listen i am tired of stand offs you all know how it goes you have a really good game and the last survivor is nowhere you can see so you wander and boom you stumble upon the hatch and then you see the survivor what do you do? you cant hit him they will just jump in while you wipe the blood off they just sit their staring at you and if you had a great game a ruthless victory is not going to satisfy you but noo the survivor just sits their for hours waiting for you to give up WHY is it really OK to allow this and thats not the only problem how about when you finally kill the 3rd survivor and the last guy was just camping the hatch so the moment his friend dies you cant do anything and i dont want to come across as salty or anything but being robbed of a 4 kill because the last survivor was an asshat and camped the hatch while you chased his friend is infuriating i haven't had a good 4k in a while because of that damn hatch i can barely stay in rank 3. their needs to be a fix for this because i have never one a goddamn standoff because the survivor will stubbornly sit their until, im not kidding hours pass and i just hit screw it and hit them. this should not be rewarded people either make a way the killer can temporarily close the hatch and it can only be opened if the survivor completes a gen or something or i dont know but like i said i dont want to be salty or come across i know not all survivors do this but i draw my line at this if the killer finds the hatch BEFORE the survivor the hatch should be temporarily closed or inaccessible and if the survivor is within a certain radius of the hatch it wont open for a short amount of time until after the survivor leaves or the hatch is closed unless a successful chain of skill checks are done or if the hatch is in the killers radius it will automatically open discouraging camping for both sides this isn't just a salty complaint this is a real issue so please dont call me a salty whiner because im not i always now how to take a loss and if the survivor team was really good and worked well with eachother i usually will carry the last one over to the hatch as a way of saying thanks for the fun game but sometimes i need to stand up against the injustice and the fact every game ends in 3k or a 2k is the most unsatisfying conclusion all because of a broken game mechanic that needs a fix. please respond respectfully and dont be shy about your opinion im curios to see the flip side of this argument

    I'm not reading all of that because... my god just look at it...

    You can't say you were robbed of your 4kill if you let the survivors do 2 gens (esp with the current event). You didn't earn it. You're not entitled to it or anything else. Work for your gains or be happy with what you've earned.

    Guys like you are the ones that go insane when they are slugged :lol:

    All right good sir yes it does need to be addressed. And yes maybe you do need to start chopping some of those sentences. 

    Point a is. I hate the hatch stand off as much as the next guy.

    However, it's remaining that way for a reason because how it functions. Unless they can find a way to make the hatch standoff a lot easier and good luck.

    I've read your text wall and if I've missed something then please enlighten me. 

    The devs attempted hatch closes. They didn't work to a satisfactory level. Your suggestion that a survivor on their own complete a gen to unlock the hatch is ludicrous. I can patrol 3 gens with 4 survivors alive and pull a 4k from it. it'd be impossible for a solo survivor to do a gen.

    Once again: if you absolutely must have a 4k than don't let the survivors do 2 gens. Or just slug.

    What point? There's a point in there? Jesus H. Christ, use punctuation and paragraphs. I'm not reading that wall of text. When people out there chant "Build the wall," I don't think that is what they mean.

    Less is more... Remember that when you are typing in your wall of text.

    Type it out... proof it... cut out all the BS story crap that doesn't mean anything... then refine it down to what you actually want to say. Then break it out so people can read it easier on their PCs.

    Oh yeah... Could you call the ambassador to Mexico?.... Tell them you got their wall ready.

    If you aren't willing to slug the 3rd person to guarantee your 4k, then you don't deserve to 4k.

    that's just a fact in the current system.

    If you don't want to slug that 3rd person for any reason at all, then you have no right to complain.

    Except he was. You already get punished for gens completed in another emblem. Honestly I'm tempted to do gens if they're far from the hatch and it's gotten me the hatch because they pull off the hatch when they see another done.

    I don't think anyone denies that it needs to be addressed. In the meantime, though, it sounds like you need to just hit the survivor and let them have it. You know it's going to frustrate you and make you angry, and you know it's not fair but you also know your only options are to sit there for forever in a standoff or just let them go. So.....for now, just let them go. Hope something changes. Maybe don't spend any more money on the game until it gets fixed.

    Yeah , exactly , what the F?
    +It must be another crying killer who isn't satisfied unless he gets 4k every game.
    And don't use the "i earned the 4k because they didn't finish the generators".

    I play both sides and have no problem with last survivor getting hatch. 3 kills and 1 hatch escapee is not a loss, get over it.

    I don't care if the last survivor gets the hatch (don't have time for that BS), but I will slug the third one only to see if their teammate will save them. if not I focus on that Survivor and let the slug one take to hatch. Don't be scummy, save a friend.
