Downed survivors should not see other survivors auras, or limit the range so they cannot help killer
Many times it happens that there are 2 survivors left and the killer decides he will use the one he downed to find the other remaining survivor that is hiding because the killer knows the downed survivor can see the other survivors aura.
This has happened to me too many times to count, and is easily the most toxic and frustrating thing that can happen in this game.
There is no valid use case for a downed survivor seeing other survivors. All you can do is crawl toward them.
To combat this toxic gameplay, please make it so downed survivors cannot see auras of the other survivors, or limit the range to something like 20m.

I am torn on this.
I understand the sentiment and also get completely irritated when the downed Survivor starts crawling to other Survivors to give them away.
But at the same time - I am equally irritated when Survivors "abandon" their team members to just go 'wait for the Hatch spawn'.

This is a tough one, also applies to some perks like Kindred, Aftercare, Bond, and Empathy. You run into trolls that abuse the info and it sucks. I sometimes wish you could toggle your Aura not to be shown in a match when you're dealing with trolls. Then people might just disable the aura even if you're not a troll and then a useless perk.

I;'m not talking about crawling toward. them. Sometimes the killer will pick up/drop the survivor repeatedly so he can walk again with understanding that he will help killer to find the other survivor. This has happened to me several times.
Kindred is not impacted by this since no one is on the hook when this is happening.
Aftercare / Bond /Empathy just shouldn't work for you when you are in the dying state. its fine that they still work for anyone that is not dying.

So, you're wanting more of an automatic death if carried too long?
Because being carried, seeing auras doesn't really help the carried survivor. If they're on the ground, seeing auras helps the killer if they're crawling to them.

You're not even understanding what I said. I didnt say anytthing about being carried around. Also not sure why my other reply disappeared out of this thread so I am reposting it here.

Oh, I think I understand now - you mean sometimes the killer will allow them to wiggle free so they can run around again; with the intention that they will lead them to where the other Survivor was? I think I got you now? Sorry, I got the 'carried' part from the "pick up/drop" part of that.
Unfortunately, only thing that can be done about that is the "make yourself feel good" system - I mean the in-game reporting system.

Late to the party and I have definitely had some negative things happen due to downed survivors being able to see my aura, (such as leading the killer to me) - but I have also had good things happen and therefore I support it. I personally like to be able to see my teammates auras when I’m downed as well. I do everything I can to save my teammates and this can be very helpful when killers are camping downed survivors. Just this morning I was able to beckon the downed survivor and point them towards the open gate, making the killer choose to let them crawl out/ or be forced to pick them up. The killer finally decided to pick them up and hook them, and I was able to get the save with BT, and we escaped. This was very satisfying as the killer had been camping their no-Ed totem and other downed survivors prior to that. Also a friendly reminder to survivors, not to just lay there and allow the killer to camp you and a totem at the same time lol. Crawl away! Make them choose!
