Push Killer Action
Ok, hear me out. There are some instances that killer will body block a place (for example a 1 person gen or a trap removing device from pig) or survivor and hold that place or suvivor hostage. So to counter this, a possible solution would be to add a push killer function. For example, if a killer stays in the same 5 meter radius for 15 seconds or so, a suvivor is able do just push him away and it would act like a stun. It would have no practical effect matchwise, but would avoid some rare scenarios.
BTW, dont take the time or distance as a must, just an example.

Well no, because there are bodyblocking situations that are strategic.

How is staying in the same place for an indefinate ammount of time, strategic?

There’s a lot of possible examples, these are the ones that come to mind immediately:
- It’s endgame collapse and they will die in a few minutes.
- Pig player sees someone with a quick-beeping Reverse Bear Trap (indicating the timer is almost up), making it likely the box they’re heading to is the last one they have left to try. So the Pig bodyblocks it for the remainder of the time to prevent them from getting the head trap off so they guaranteed die.
- Someone is on a hook, and so you are bodyblocking the person coming to rescue them so they can’t get the save/the unhook prompt is canceled/isn’t shown.
- You are waiting for your power to charge up.
- You know that their Borrowed Time will be over soon, letting you down them.
- You block someone off of the Exit Gate switch so they cannot open the gate that is 99’d.

how is most of that not dooable in 15 seconds...or whatever, add more time?

Well that doesn't make sense. Survivors aren't meant to fight back. If anything it would make sense for killers to push survivors out of the way since they are the devil-powered killers. Survivors that are just normal human beings pushing the killers out of the way would not make any sense at all.

#1-3 can be anywhere from a few seconds to a few minutes, and so can other examples not listed there. The entire point is survivors cannot push killers.

Bodyblocking is wrong when killers do it, only survivors should be allowed to bodyblock. Same goes for perks, killers using perks is cheating and toxic. Waaaaaah.
Sorry, I was pretending to be a survivor.

A push that stuns would be too much, just remove collision in the case of a pig blocking traps, as for the endgame blocking, they did a dumb to get blocked

No but killers should push survs out of the way when moving if they collide. You really think it's reasonable for a Claudette to shove oni or nemesis 5 meters out of the way? Give me a break

It amazes me to see comments about "being reasonable" like its completely normal to be hocked in a meat hook, and then be massaged back to health. Seriously? I actually find hillarous that this is a line of thought.
As for the removal of collision suggestion, that sounds fair also.
Another thing is, I'm mostly a Killer player, people just love to assume things and be "awww survivors whining, awww killers whining", jeez, can't you talk ideas like normal people?
