Kill Switch update: We have temporarily Kill Switched the Forgotten Ruins Map due to an issue that causes players to become stuck in place. The Map will remain out of rotation until this is resolved.

hatch timer

as the title says, i would like for the hatch to have a timer until it automatically closes itself

theres still situations where the killer is basically on top of the hatch and refuses to close it

and i dont think you wanna do gens and risk getting found either way or waste god knows how much time just for a chance at escaping or the killer being toxic to you

i would say around 40 secounds should be enough, by that point the killer probably found the hatch or its at a spot where both of you havent found it yet

would also counteract against bleedouts against a single guy and waiting til it runs out or just closing it onto their face, then the endgame timer probably would be faster or they would be more incetivised to just hook the survivor instead

while some may say this would just profit against slugging against hatch,
that has been already made with the basekit mori, at this point it wouldnt be so bad to add improvements for it instead.

i hope this doesnt require too much effort or money but we will see.

ideally i would hope we would get other and better improvements, but maybe they simply dont want to do it or it costs alot of time and money, who knows.
