Why are these strategies still in the game?
In light of chaos shuffle where your builds are completely random, I have been slugged almost every single round with nothing to do about it but wait until they decide if they want to pick me up or not. Why are killers still allowed to deny someone's ability to play the game, by doing the simple act of not picking them up? Some killers like The Twins or Singularity are even more potent in doing so, it almost feels like they're DESIGNED to leave people on the ground which is frustrating.
Vice versa, hook sabotaging is incredibly abusable and FORCES killers to slug. It's an infuriating cycle of killers being forced to not play the game, which makes survivors not be able to play the game. Which then births more people to just start playing this way normally even if the survivors aren't doing anything to antagonize them.
Please for the love of this game, consider changing how being downed works, remove sabotaging, or consider making something like Unbreakable be base-kit in some way that isn't survivor sided? I'm not sure exactly what to do about it but just try SOMETHING! Nobody likes being left on the ground or forced to leave people on the ground for extended periods of time.

Events are notoriously toxic in this game for whatever reason. I generally avoid them at all costs. Normal hasnt been any better tbh. I just had a cannibal slug every survivor until bleed out. the very next match I had a killer using a VPN from khazakstan that tunneled me for five gens. Dude only got two hooks because he was so focused on me.
as survivor you HAVE to run anti-slug and anti-tunnel perks, like there is no other choice

Behaviour couldn't give a toss about anyone who is being tunneled or slugged, nor will they remove No Mither from the pool etc.
I swear I'm so sick of how they seem to understand 2v8 and how to make that fun yet every other event is just LMAO
Play with a 4 stack or just dont play apparantley.2 -
So you admit that hook sabotaging can force a killer to slug, but your solution for slugging is 100% survivor sided, and would punish killers if survivors force them to slug.

killers are forced to slug, so let's punish them more for slugging anyways? Lol

So true my dear, 2v8 is the best and balanced mode for me, all thanks basekit breaks (it should be often too since only runner can use it more), teleporting hooks😉

literally skill issue.
If I can't pick my build and neither can killer it's pure skill vs skill.
If someone needs to play in scummy way in event mode to win they are just lacking the skill.

I said something RELATED, I don't know how Behaviour thinks when it comes to re-designing game mechanics.

You do realize that you're sitting out whether it's on the hook or the ground, right? If it's the ground, you potentially get more chances to play and be chased than being hooked…
Also, if your team is on point, you spend about as much time on the ground as you do on the hook. I swear, so many of you guys just jump straight to being angry without truly analyzing the situation.
