How To Fix The Game (For Both Killer and Survivor)

The time it takes for the first survivor to be downed and hooked determines the pace of the game. As long as 4 survivors are up (1 in chase, 3 on gens) the survivors are favored to win. The killer needs to hook a survivor and force someone off a gen (to go for the save) as quickly as possible which makes early game mistakes as the killer often times game losing. Removing someone from the game is the best way to slow down gen repair speed and is why killers tunnel. Being tunneled isn't fun but it's objectively the best way for the killer to play.

The biggest problem for killers is early to mid game gen control.
The biggest problem for survivors is getting tunneled and having someone DC early.
This is the solution:

  • Give killers an increase to immediate generator regression that is stronger for each survivor alive so that killers can fall off early chases and go back to patrolling gens without losing so much momentum.

  • Give survivors an increase to generator repair speed for each survivor not in game so that early DC's/deaths don't screw over the other 3 survivors and ruin the match.

  • Give survivors a 10 second built in borrowed time effect for their "FIRST" unhook (borrowed time perk would stack). Killers would no longer need to tunnel but they might still try it and this would mean that when a survivor comes off their first hook the killer could just go after their rescuer instead.

So there you have it, killers have some early to mid game gen control and don't lose because the first chase took too long, survivors don't automatically lose because their teammate DC'd and people stop getting tunneled off their first hook.

    Anyone can bring a mori which means losing 2 chases can get you killed, but losing 1 chase and getting an unsafe hook rescue just to be immediately downed and rehooked sucks and usually results in post game nasty messages and general toxicity.
