Dead-on-hook survivor status icon.

Just a little quality-of-life idea, adding a little mark on survivor health state icons for everyone in the match to see (like blood mark behind the icon or change survivors' name from white into red) once they've reached the second sacrificing state so that survivors know that they'll have to be more careful about their teammates who are about to die on their next hook and letting them know that they have to use one-time-use perks and items like DS or insta-heal before they lose a chance to use that.

For killers, they can leave that survivor alone if they want to avoid losing momentum and certain hook, to continue getting Hex : Devour Hope stacks, to gain most of Evil Within before hooking them, and not to waste time putting them in Madness tier 3 before downing them or putting Reverse Bear Trap on them before hooking them.

What do you guys think about this?

    Fine I'll be the one to say it. Just pay attention more. As a killer or survivor I usually know the status of everyone on the hook. The exception is when someone else removes someone from the hook just as it's progressing. Situational awareness is the major point of this game. This change would just be lazy.

    I don´t see any reason why it shouldn´t be added

    Personally, it's pretty easy to keep track of 3 other health states. Keeping track of that activity gives you greater map awareness as well.

    For survivors probably good. For killer, not. Would only encourage to tunnel down the ones who are dead on next hook.

    A) any good killer will already remember who's on death hook

    B) that's usually the best course of action anyway
