Survivors Hiding, Taking Game Hostage

Honestly the honest decent suggestions. Killers refuse to even acknowledge that slugging occurs for the 4k. Its taking the game hostage from those who are on death hook forcing them to wait out 4 mins of time. Also tends to result in killers letting them wiggle off in hopes of ratting out their other survivor. Lots of negative impacts from it. Yet they want to claim that its fair and fun.

If they want to address survivors hiding till the other gets found then Slugging needs to also get removed.

Well it does

Not even wiki mentions that though, just that "lights up when 32meter range" and "plays random whisper upon active", nothing about direction

And is there any sources for this

I've searched and what I found was that the "dev confirmed whisper is not directional and will not guide you in direction of survivors," which is also correlate with my own experience, people's opinions, and what wiki describes

It will not help, here is why:

1. Generator progress with 4 survivors alive -10% means gens will be repaired 9 seconds longer. There is nothing more boring than repairing them, you will make game even worse.
2. Generator repair + 20% for 2 survivors is nothing, unless its last gen, but even then it will more often turn into third death even if gen repaired successfully.

Tunneling problem have its place for two reasons: its easier for killer to win by tunneling AND generator repaired too fast, so killer cannot afford himself to waste a single precious second to go for full hp person, while unhooked injured one has nothing (even then we don't know, he might have off the record, DS, DH, SWF). Playing as killer is pain in the ass right now, especially if you are playing as a nice guy. But if you don't its not much better. Unless you are playing tunneling camping Nurse, Huntress and other top tier killers with top tier perks.

The 2v1 and 1v1 endgame scenarios are definitely two major game design issues still, that have never been properly addressed. If only two survivors remain and there is even just one more gen to do, or let alone more than that, the game is regularly a foregone conclusion and the survivor players will be reluctant to touch gens or otherwise risk being found, as that puts them into a certain death position. That the killer can then slug one of them once they have finally found them in order to try and find the other, and even pick them up and let them wiggle, indefinitely prolonging the match just to try and kill both survivors adds to the flawed state and the undesirable gameplay experience these game scenarios can and often do yield. And then in the 1v1 scenario the hatch standoff still exists: if the killer finds the hatch first, they can simply stand on it and refuse to close it, so as to not risk allowing the survivor to open a gate or escape via a key, instead waiting to spot the survivor first; while the survivor will of course refuse to show themselves. And even if they do close it, the gate spawns can regularly be such that the survivor has no chance of opening one, and various killer abilities can also render it all but impossible regardless of gate spawns.

BHVR will hopefully at some point address these scenarios, such that things aren't as hopeless for survivors and not as tiresome or choresome for killers in them. A few quick, rough ideas: In the 2v1-with-gens-remaining scenario, the survivors could gain a significant increase in repair speed, as well as the ability to recover from the dying state. In turn, they would have their locations exposed by killer instict periodically. Instead of the ability to recover from the dying state, you could alternatively give them one to give up in the dying state and be swallowed by the entity, such that they can trigger the 1v1 endgame. For the 1v1 endgame, at the very least the hatch should automatically close after some time, maybe a minute, powering the gates. Gates should always spawn on opposite sides of the map. Not necessarily as far apart as they possibly can be, but with a certain minimum distance. The red light indicators on the gates could also activate later into the interaction - 50%, 75% and 95% seems apt. This would allow the sole surviving player to more reliably still play for an escape. For a crazier idea, trigger a sudden death scenario in the 1v1 after the hatch is closed or automatically closes, putting the players into a chase where if the survivor can survive for more than a minute, hatch spawns at their feet and they escape automatically, whereas if the killer downs them before that time elapses, they automatically mori them on the spot. I know this would be far from equal for all killers, but I for one would welcome this whacky twist at the end, and I mean, the game is already won for the killer anyway, this is just for the fun of it.

Whatever they would come up with, I hope some day they address these flaws. Again, the fact that even the hatch standoff still exists in this day and age and despite BHVR having had proclaimed to have fixed it years ago is just a tad ridiculous.

Then record your games and get them banned. Otherwise, play the game.

To recap, survivors were hiding from the killer. Ban them.

Hiding from a killer is part of the game (especially for beginners) and always will be.

To blame survivors who hide is a terrible statement in my opinion

I play a majority killer nowadays lol. Practically the only games I lose are when map offerings and multiple meta perks/items are brought (FTP+Buckle Up, multiple dead hards, syringes, etc.)

The game is killer sided outside of coordinated groups who are clearly trying to win, and I don’t think anyone’s argued against that, that’s always been the case. If I stacked gen regression perks, my win percentage would go from like 75-80% like it currently is to 90+%. If you’re stacking gen regression and still losing a majority of your games, your MMR has clearly outpaced your skill level with the help of gen regression.

May I ask how long you’ve been playing the game for? Because like I said, outside of OverBrine meta, this is without a doubt the strongest killer has ever been in the 6 years I’ve been playing the game. Stacking Pain res, pop, grim embrace might as well make the survivors start with 7-8 gens.

I rather deal with neither. Both are a waste of time for the sake of wasting time.
