BodyBlocking Still a Problem
If you get trapped in a corner good luck getting out. I can’t tell how many times I’ve been stuck in a one way area with the killer blocking me in. Just happened to me in Mcmillian estate. He missed me, but he took his time cause I couldn’t get past him. I was literally stuck and his body blocked the only way out. How is that fair? You’re just giving the killer a free hit

Don’t get stuck

Wow! I never thought of that! You must be part of the dev team.

That's how the game works dude. It is intended.

If he hits you run through them then afterwards

Feels more like an exploit.

If a real killer found you in a closet, my guess is they could body block you from leaving.
Its only a problem if they don't hit you.

I mean, if he's chilling there and staring you down, your whole team has free reign to pound gens. If you're just getting boxed in and hit, stop running into corners.

I was in a corner and couldnt move or go around him. So he managed to just hit me two times without even having to move

When you get hit, you can run through the killer.

I was doing a hex totem and he came and boxed me in.

I couldn’t. I tried.

Not if it's Leatherface, to be fair. Although he'd have to catch OP with just an M1 Killer's abilities, so that's a pretty fair punishment/reward for them both.

It was a Nurse

Yeah but that's your mistake then. You took a wrong turn, or ran the wrong way and found yourself in a dead end. It's part of the game. I had that happen to me once in Mother's Dwelling when I was pretty new. I was running around the house, killer on my arse and I was learning to tightly run around corners and hug walls. Well there's one pile of wood that you can run behind until you realize it's closed off at one side.
My bad. Never did it again.

You must’ve waited too long then it’s something around two seconds where you lose collision on a hit and can run through the killer. Or of course could have been a bug. As you know bugs are nothing new to this game.

When the killer hits you, you lose collision and can run through them to get away. There are killers whose abilities allow them to down you, namely Plague, Trapper, Billy and Bubba, but that is all.

Wait you are complaining that due to YOUR let me state that one my time YOUR poor maneuvering of going into a corner leads to you getting trapped which leads to getting hit
I have an idea to counter this strategy but you might not like it
(don't do that)

Well, if he was close enough to box you in, he was close enough to get the hit regardless. If he just stood there without hitting you, he's just wasting time, which is actually good for your team.
Also, once he hits you, collisions are briefly turned off, so you can run through him to get out.

Then you did something wrong.

If you read my comments I said I was doing a hex totem

"Why rali-ho! Last evening I met the most delightful and charming man who tried to kill me. I ran myself into a dead end in an old alley, and he had the courtesy to step aside and allow me to get a few feet on him so that we could renew the chase. That man may have been a murderer, at least I suspect he may be, but he was certainly quite a gentlemen!" imagine having a conversation like that over a mug of mead

Oh nooo I ran into a corner please let me out waaaahhhh
0 -
It's fair. If they wait too long, the other survivors aren't being pressured anyway and can get out.

Doing a hex totem, in a corner, as the killer approaches, and not leaving it as they do to not be cornered
I have a strategy to counter that as well
(don't do that)

It was a Nurse. There was no approaching. She was just there the second I worked on it

Nurse has a 32 meter terror radius and can only blink up to 20 meters in one blink without addons, unless it was a nurse at the edge of her terror radius using thrill of the hunt and double range addons it was highly unlikely that you didn't have any time to hear she was approaching
