A suggestion for camping

How about changing the hook stage timer depending on the amount of gens left?

1 gen: 60 sec, 2 gens: 65 sec, etc.

Early camps wouldnt be so rewarding, but it would still be an option for the late game, so that survivor cant ignore the hooked person. The added time is similar to the buffed gen times, so its not that big of a change.

Downsides: swf could time gen completion. 99 every gen and pop them after the hook. So they would benefit more from the change than solos. Would buff Pain res.

The change affects weak and good player the same. And thats a problem bc on the higher end survivor are stronger than most killer and in the lower end its the opposite.

Thats one of the reasons why i would have preferred map updates to the gen time changes. Weaker loops wouldnt affect bad player, bc they cant loop anyway. But thats another topic and the wider diversity of perks after the update, makes it still a great update.

    No. Hook timer progression forces survivors to get off their gen and come save.

    Right now this is how it works.

    1. Killer hooks a survivor, there are 3 survivors on gens.
    2. Killer finds and chases one survivor. There are 2 survivors on gens and one on a hook.
    3. One of the two gen survivors has to unhook. He leaves his gen. There is one survivor on a gen, one being chased and one hooked.

    This is the ideal scenario for a killer. Without this, the gens will all pop like popcorn.

    Your suggestion gives the survivors leeway to ignore the hook and just do gens, meaning that a killer would not be able to keep the ideal scenario of only allowing one survivor on a gen at a time. Which means, gens would complete twice as fast as normal.

    Let me repeat. Gens would complete twice as fast as people are accustomed to.
