Staircase of the basement should be more narrow
It's really annoying if you try to bodyblock it as killer perfectly but survivors can still escape within the 12 seconds of invincible status.
This game should be more killer sided to prevent bad queue times for survivors and more attractive for playing killer.
So a slight buff to basement would be very nice to make it more fun and balanced.

Are you getting bored sitting in queue so you're posting on the forums? Yeah me too.
It used to be narrower iirc.
They widened it so you couldn't bodyblock survivors for all eternity
No, it could lead to a situation where the Killer blocks the basement with the remaining Survivors inside and refusing to hit them effectively taking the game hostage. The change you ask for will never happen.
Fun fact! The hitbox of a killer shrinks in size when on basement stairs to prevent them from bodyblocking people inside there, as it would be far too easy to cause hostage situations.
So no, maybe let's not do that one!
The entire point is killer is not supposed to be able to bodyblock the basement stairs.
I thought they widened the stairs, not that going on the stairs would be such a workout that the hitboxes of the killers shrunk.
Thanks for the fun fact, it actually was fun.
I think they only widened the stairs on specific maps where that collision shrinkage didn't work, or something like that.
No lol
omg hi sow
Heyooo
Basement should be removed no longer needed.
That’s a major nerf for no reason.
I'm pretty sure it wouldn't matter if you made it more narrow at all. Since I'm almost positive that on the basement stairs, both the killer and survivors lose collision after some time rubbing against each other to prevent hostage situations that don't advance the game state.
Sure narrow the stairs so I can body block that ######### as killer.
The trick is to stop the borrowed time with your chainsaw.
It used to be saboed hooks would not respawn anywhere at all. So it was much more difficult for killer to get hooks because a swf would bring 4 toolboxes and sabo every hook on the map. So the basement hooks were added. Well saboed hooks respawn now and have for quite sometime.
So long as there is only one entrance/exit to The Basement every player needs the agency to enter/exit it in some manner to prevent “hostage” situations.
(I can’t recall if you can still perform hostage situations with a Killer and Survivor who team together to bodyblock other Survivors)
Moreover if you make the stairs narrow a trapper can block the access with a single trap. In a situation where there is a surv hooked in the basement and a second surv is going to rescue you can stay closer, going back as soon the trap is disarmed, rearm it and now you have 2 preys that can't escape.
Only DH can save them, not even BT.
And the rescuer can't even use DH if he is healthy.
A hag can use a phantasm trap with longer duration to block the access of the entrance if you do not pay attention and duck.
Mamny gameplays will become too strong.
