Why don't things like ghostface stalk and exit gates decrease over time so they can't be 99
While the outplay for ghostface stalk is getting him to hit you, if you are running from him and he just lean stalks you to 99 for later there is very little you can do especially if you didn't break them out while they stalked you, which isn't helped by the hit box to break him out of stealth not being very reliable.
The same can be said but without the possibility for an outplay towards the exit gates getting 99 it would become more interesting if survivors had to choose between opening the exit gates and starting endgame collapse or I guess having someone to keep the exit gates at 99 since once again just being able to leave them and come back without any progress decreasing
To conclude I am not in favour of nerfing ghostface since I recognise one of his best strategies can be to 99 the stalk, but I just feel like there should be more counterplay or ghostface shouldn't be able to just leave you completely with one hit for a game until they find you again and of course if this was nerfed another area of ghostface would need to be buffed, maybe killer should be able to hit the exit gate to reduce the progress by 10-20% so that seeing an exit gate at 99 isn't like staring at a generator that is 99 that you can't kick.

Because that is literally the point of strategically using Ghost Face's power and he doesn't need a nerf? There is enough counterplay. It's called don't get stalked. Or take a hit while you aren't actively stalked. Eg, while he's carrying/doesn't have power up.
Gates can be 99'd because having all gens done is literally meant to be significantly in the survivors' favor (outside of perks or whatnot factors).

I am probably wrong about ghostface but why shouldn't the killer be able to hit an exit gate to remove progress like with gens, since the killer is literally powerless against a 99 exit gate and there is 0 counterplay

??? Kill the survivors before they do that. Or run perks like NWO.

To be honest if ghost face get's you to 99% then then just tap stalk to get it to 100% then you kinda deserve to go down, as far the hit box to break him out of it yer that is not the best you can be in front of him and not break him out or have no los and break him out of it. When i play him the amount of survivors that just don't look around them when doing a gen is the reason i can 99% them.

Exit gates should regress if no one is on them over a set amount of time.
As for Ghostface, he is already weak AF. Removing his stalk over time would absolutely gut him

99ing exit gates is completely fine.

Just open the gate as killer then? It's why it was added. 99'ing doors was always a thing. It's literally why they gave killers the ability to open the door, to start the endgame collapse.

You want to nerf the worst killer in the game?

revealing ghostface is bugged as hell

99ing gates is fine. It encourages risky plays like late rescues, so more opportunity for killer to get some hits in. And honestly, it's hard enough escaping at the moment, survivors don't need another base kit nerf.

Gates absolutely should decay at a 1:1 ratio so there are no free easy escapes. Open the doors before the rescue or delay and open them after. No more 99% freebies.
GF is fine.

I did say that in my msg you can have someone looking at him and not break him out of it but then someone can see you though say the corn and break you out, it's bugged for both sides not just one survivors not being able to break him out or survivors breaking him out without LOS.

Ghost Face is already a weak killer, nerfing that would be really stupid.
