Double-Lockers w/ flashlights are broken
The fact that 2 survivors with flashlights can enter two close lockers and be basically invulnerable (saving each other every time the killer picks one up) is absurd.
And yes, you can leave them to go for other survivors, and their flashlights will eventually run out or whatever but the fact that is even doable is crazy, it feels like an exploit to me.
In my opinion this should be fixed. My suggestion is making the entity block a locker (like vaults) after 3-4 times a survivor enters or leaves. This would also fix the spamming of notifications some survivors do with lockers. Or simply make the survivor unable to use their item for a few seconds if they went in and out of a locker a few times.

why are you letting those survivors have their way? If they're both in a locker, they're not on gens and you're just wasting time. Also the frequency something like that happens is so incredibly low, it really is a non-issue.

The problem is not that they're doing it, but that they can do it in the first place. Also, I'm pretty sure that if 4 survivors did this it would be imposible for the killer to counter it. For example, the middle of midwich map has at least 2 sets of double lockers nearby, so a 4man swf could potentially abuse this to hold the game hostage.
Again, the problem is that this is even doable in the first place, which is why I think it should be fixed.

ok but consider, in this hypothetical situation that will literally never happen. flashlights don't have infinite use, they can only flash you for so long as frustrating as it is. On top of that if all 4 are in a locker, that means they're not gonna win, because none of them are doing gens lol. So they can only flash light save for so long. You could also just leave them and if they refuse to play and sit afk in the lockers just report them for holding the game hostage... Otherwise, it just sounds like survivors having fun...

Hold the game hostage? ######### you are talking about?

It's part of the survivors "fun" so it won't ever be fixed.

Flashlights are broken on their own, and since the devs are not going to do anything to fix them, dodging lobbies with flashlights is the best you can do at the moment.

No, the best is running Lightborn and abusing those boosted rats.

Yeah, but by dodging you save yourself a perk slot

Flashlights are a limited resource, so it isn't an exploit nor are the users holding the game hostage.
Also there's perks, addons, and even killers that counter this.

You can still get blinded while grabbing someone out of a locker 😒. Thought they changed that.
