Anti-Camping Hook Meter

Please add the anti-camping hook meter to endgame, multiple times I have been downed and hooked and The Killer just stands and camps my hook until I die because they want to get an easy kill and there is nothing stopping them.

    In exchange, let's remove the hatch from this foggy forest. Then we're both even.

    "Free escape"? They managed to get through 5 gens without dying, that's already an achievement. The killer shouldn't get a free kill at that point just because.

    The game is generally balanced around mid to mid-high mmr. The game is killer favored at low mmr. Mid MMR, it's generally balanced, High MMR, it's survivor favored. They aren't going to balance the game around an mmr level where it's considered an achievement surviving 5 gens. Surviving 5 gens isn't that difficult as experience is gained unless you're facing a broken killer like skull merchant\blight\nurse. Once you get some more time in the game, you'll start understanding why these perks disable in the endgame. If someone gets unhooked in the endgame collapse, it's an almost guaranteed escape with their endurance protection unless they are REALLY far from a door, and if there are other survivors to bodyblock protect them, it's gave over for the killer.

    Therefore, when the killer knocks down all the survivors, there should be no reversal. Survivors are not allowed to get up, 4%, or reach the hatch. Isn't that so?

    You really shouldnt complain about "free kills" while defending "free escapes". It's hypocrisy.

    Furthermore, as people do always point out in that 4k discussion, you dont deserve a 4k just because you killed 3, you need to work for it, which killers do.

    Conversely, just because the gens are powered or the gates open doesnt mean you're entitled to escape. You escape once you cross the finish line.

    With the amount of hook camping and tunneling, it really is. It used to be new killers mainly now it's every tier. "It's a viable strat" "It's part of the game" Bring back hatch spawning before endgame. That was a "viable" strat till killers complained and completely changed a core mechanic.

    No way. Why? There's nothing wrong with camping once gens are done and this only punishes killers that had a bad match and have to defend a hook.
