Killer Slug for 4k

Please give us the option to abandon when slugged with 2 players left, there's no reason to make us sit there until we bleed out to death whilst the killer runs around the entire map trying to find the last survivor.

  • hm sounds like there needs to be an instant mori on the last survivor so that your slug can end quicker over an abandon feature when there is still a chance for your last team mate to save you. I think thats a better idea than abandoning your team mate.

  • Yes, I think at the bare minimum you need to let the slugged player turn into a bot.

    I want to note, in 90% of games, this is not quite right. "Abandoning your teammate" would only happen if the other survivor were trying to save you. Generally, once generators can't be completed, many players play for hatch on their own. (I'm sure you knew most of that though)

    i do know that but it is a team game so the intention would be to attempt to assist your team mate and so if they decide to play solo when there is still a team in game they are in fact abandoning you even if they arent hitting a button that says abandon.

    Right, and I agree with you that's what happening. But my question is this: how do we stop incentivizing survivors to abandon their teammates?

    I think the hatch system is a serious issue because the killer "needs" to use that third survivor as bait/dead meat just waiting there for as much as a few minutes.

    At bare minimum you gotta let the person on the ground who has no hope of the exiting the trial alive to turn into a bot. This would save 999/1000 matches allowing players to get into games while a bot lies down for them.

    Unfortunately that is against the spirit of the game, but they're going to die regardless. Let them die, and then if BHVR seriously think the hatch duel between survivor/killer is fun, start that event immediately.

    i dont disagree either that hatch is an issue but i have no idea how to adress that. I understand the solution its implemented for but it has caused other emergent behavior which can definitely be lame because of it

  • ya know…. not every killer is mean as you think… when i have access to my 4k's, if they DONT dc (whichi never slug unless the other person is already in sight) i actually backpack the person to the hatch…doesn't always happen, but i also play high MMR… lol

    To be honest, i'd sayit the other way around… if someone DC before the natural match end, survivors should forfeit all earned bloodpoints (killers too.. so its not one sided)… because the DC's just cause its a killer you dont like,or you think its unfair, is unfair to the killer who possibly sat for over 5 minutes possibly 10 or more on a given day, waiting for a match… while survivors get instant queues.
