Killers who freezing the whole game by Not picking up the 3rd survivor all day long to find 4th one.

Am I the only one tired from the matches like this? I think they should bring some penalty applyments to killers for this spesific moments. 3rd survivor is downed and staying on the ground all the way until bleedout meter is drained, killer doesn't pick them up on purpose, leaving them all game long to search around for the last survivor.

as 4th survivor, I am healing my downed teammate every single time again and again but the killer keeps doing the same thing. The game freezes and becoming ultra boring quickly. I started to approach to killer to get the abandon button asap in this situations. Maybe no logical or balanced fix for this in-game but they could bring a punishment for those kind of killers after the game like penalties or temp bans.

Just like camping, this is also an important thing for devs to step in.

When Killer hooks the 3rd survivor, the game doesnt stall; instead it triggers the Hatch and the Endgame Collapse. The match is guaranteed to end within max 1-2 mins. 4th survivor's hiding isn't causing the stall; they are reacting to the Killer deliberately refusing to progress the game. The Killer is the only one who holds the power to end the stall at any second by simply picking up the 3rd survivor. Instead, they choose to force two people into a 4-min bleedout holding pattern just to turn a 3K bp into a 4K.

The Hatch was literally designed by the devs to cleanly resolve the end of the match. Slugging for the 4K bypasses this built-in mechanic and forces a player to stare at screen doing literally nothing for 4 minutes.

Hiding is a reaction to survive; slugging for 4 minutes is stealing another player's actual time for a tiny ego/stat boost.
