Unhook spamming (unhook cancel) needs to be removed
With hook grabs removed, unhooking spamming needs to be removed as well. It has no purpose in the game.

Seriously, get rid of the unhook cancelling animation, it's only used to troll/grief teammates. I had a teammate do this to me yesterday simply because I cleansed a totem that they wanted to boon. I had to DC because I'm not watching the camera spin and my survivor scream over and over

I agree, unhooks should work like vaults, meaning once its started it cant be stopped.
The only reason its used is for Survivors to annoy the person on hook atm.

Great point! I hadn't thought about it. There's still an instinct to stop the rescue when the killer swings which isn't necessary anymore.

Since hook grabs are not a thing anymore, there's absolutely no reason for survivors to stop the unhooking once it's started
Yes, they should lock them to the unhook animation

This is currently the only way I know of to keep cheaters from auto unhooking themselves. So no.

Yeah, this is ridiculous and needs to be removed already. Survivors should be locked in the unhook animation.

i disagee tbf, a lot of the time when someone is camping/proxy camping in endgame you have to cancel the unhook and run away to stop yourself from going down(this is if you’re not willing to trade but want to get them off hook) or the mind game when The Executioner is camping with his power up waiting for the survivor to be unhooked you need the cancel unhook to be able to mind game at the right time to unhook idk, from my experience if someone is being stuck in this animation its bc they’re giving up at 5 gens after they went down once, or playing like a bot and making dumb plays. just go to the toilet or make a cup of tea and by the time you come back you’ll be out of the game

They absolutely should lock survivors in the unhook animation
If you try to unhook in front of the killer, you deserve to get slapped. The less tools griefers can use the healthier this game will be

I managed to save a teammate in end game by pretending I was unhooking, and stopped so I could dodge Gunslinger's spear. There are some tactical uses for it, even now that hook grabs are gone.
Hook rescue spamming does suck, but there must be a better way to fix it.

The only fix I can think of besides locking survivors in the unhooking animation is having a run to cancel option, kind of like when you're on the ground slugged, a teammate tries to heal you but you can prevent them just by pressing the run button.

Couldn't they just make it so the survivor on hook doesn't make a bunch of noise and the camera doesn't switch until the unhooking has progressed far enough that it can't be cancelled out of? That way unhooking and cancelling would have the same effect as just standing next to the hook and survivors could still bait out ranged killers who are watching the hook.

That's how it should've been done honestly.. make survivors have to go for the unhook and make the start up animation longer and less cancellable and keep hook grabs.

As they are locked in the animation they cannot unhook themselves.

Sarcasm or actually serious..?
