6 Gens instead of 5

For those who don't know, Gen rushing is when the Killer does not have enough pressure to distract all the Survivors so when you are chasing 1 Survivor the other 3 give no shits you're nearby and just do Gens and then by the time you get that guy down 2 or 3 Gens are done.

Gen rushing only exists because the Killers are weak, the Killers are not equipped to put on the necessary pressure they need to slow down Gens. But what if the answer to this problem is simpler than we think it is?

What if, instead of making Gens take longer they just increase 5 Gens to 6?

There are 4 Survivors so they already have to multi task with that 5th Gen but adding in one more will increase the amount of focus THEY need to put in instead of the Killer. Increasing the amount of work the Survivors need to put in will ease off the amount the Killers have to.

Now I firmly believe in the ''2nd Objective'' because Gens are boring, they are SO BORING. But if they want, BHVR can experiment with doing 6 Gens instead of 5 and see how those games go, how fast do those gens go and does it make it too hard for Survivors? One possible way to do it is that from Rank 20-10 you get 5 Gens but from Rank 9-1 you get 6 so that way the lower ranks will generally get better the more they play and the stakes are raised by 1.

Alternately they could turn this into a Secret offering for Killers to add in 1 Gen, then everyone will have to ponder whether it is a Mori or a 6th Gen.

THE PROBLEM

Now there is a problem with this idea, right now the amount of Gens on every map is 7 so to keep the 3 Gen strat they will have to increase this to 8. I don't know if that will make things difficult or not, some gens already appear in some spots and not others so maybe it won't be a problem. I can see this being a problem on The Game and maybe Haddonfield but those maps are getting variations in the future so maybe not. On that note I can't possibly see how they can make The Game map any different since it is literally a complete square made up of smaller squares unless they have permission to turn that square into an Octagon.

    Gen rushing doesn't happen because killers are weak. Genrushing happens because players are bad.

    I agree, as a killer main, but sometimes there really just isn’t a way to bring the exact killer/build you want and not get your ######### #########.


    I don’t think it’s as game breaking as some do, but it’s a little annoying at times.

  • what about 6 hits to put someone in dying state?

    You: what about 6 hits to put someone in dying state

    Killer Mains: NO, NO, and NO

    Survivor Mains: Yeah Bois! we get to live forever muahahahahahaha

    Me: NEIN

    that comment you wrote @joan sounds like something an entitled survivor main would say

    And 6 gens instead of 5 is not what a entitled killer mail would say?

  • I think you're misunderstanding what causes genrushing.

    Gens are literally the only objective in the bloody game. So all they're doing is the gens. It's done quickly because survivors are spread apart and often work on other gens or with people. We need another different objective, not another generator to hold down m1 for.

    We gen rush because devs had been buffing killers and now it's a joke find a survivor and chases last less. So the only opportunitty we have to win is doing gens as quickly as we can.
