So many matches happen where the survivors know where the hatch is and the killer doesn't. There are games where I haven't even traversed half the map by the time the third survivor dies! I would say a good fifty percent of survivors already know the hatch location at end game, more in red ranks.

Very hard to cover two exit gates depending on the killer and where the gates spawn.

What you describe will just lead to even more 3rd survivor slugging. It's the only way to guarantee a 4k today if killer doesn't know hatch location.

On a side note, I have a theory that killers are more likely to be aggressive in tunneling and camping when the prior match they get obliterated by a toxic swf team. I have caught myself doing it.

The survivor entitlement. Oh my. As posted above, you don't need a key if you just do gens during camping.

Last night I hooked a guy in the basement after finding him, about 70 seconds in the match. 3 gens pop and then my two hexes. I then proceed to proxy camp the basement. Is this wrong? Heck no. Still called out for it post game.

And I will tunnel out any survivor with a key, even if it makes me lose the match, until they fix them. So bring them, please.

I think one mistake is to run a killer before you've gotten them to Level 30+. Use your existing killer to farm BP and drop $1m+ on the character you want to play. This will give you a number of new perks and addons that you can use while learning. Much better than starting from Level 1 which is just crazy.

in Facing people of higher rank Comment by crowbarman March 11, 2021

I'd have to generally agree - as a Rank 1 twins main, I usually 4k red-rank solo teams without much difficulty, but can get destroyed by a good SWF. Such a huge delta.

When playing survivor, you can tell the lack of communication - unless I run Kindred, you will see 2-3 survivors come off their gens to come get me at the same time. That's a huge advantage to killer, even more so if Ruin is active. This doesn't happen in SWF which is why the gens fly so much faster. Perhaps a Kindred-lite base kit might help with a corresponding small buff on the Killer side.

Iri is not toxic.

Keys are not toxic.

Both need a nerf and shouldn't be used in the current state.

That is exactly how most people want them to handle LGBT inclusion though.

I hope so.

"Sexuality shouldn't matter in a horror game"
"I don't want to get politics shoved into my face"
Pretty much every anti-LGBTQIA+ post here.
People obviously can't be bothered to realize that straight relationships were already mentioned several times in different lores and NOBODY said something about that.
But adding a character from this group suddenly becomes "problematic"

First, many don't mention relationships at all (and even a man marrying a woman doesn't rule out all sexual identity scenerios) but something tells me you won't be satisfied with a single sentence that says 'Bob's boyfriend came home to find the house a wreck' and that's it. Because almost none of the character lore makes the relationship any kind of focus.

I am not exactly sure what constitutes a LGBTQIA+ character, other than the lore. If you want a character to have a sentence or two about how a man was married to another man before XYZ happened, then I could care less.

Representation is important but I doubt the majority of players ever look at the lore specifically. The variety of comsetics allow you to turn any character into whatever you want visually; the rest is up to your imagination IMO.

It's already been confirmed that they're being reworked

In the same breath they said they didn't think it was a big problem.

in With the rework of keys... Comment by crowbarman February 25, 2021

This thread is a case study for why keys need a rework.

"Got to 2 gens and immediately looked for hatch".

"We had multiple keys".

Let's just skip out on objectives and end this thing! Ugh!

in Hatch Glitch from having 2 Hatch Offerings Comment by crowbarman February 24, 2021

This rework you speak of - will probably never happen based on how much else is broken plus the need to push out paid content.

in With the rework of keys... Comment by crowbarman February 24, 2021

Similar to the above - totem spawns are just pure laziness.

It would be much more tolerable to see an undying nerf if totem locations were fixed, but what Fuzzels fails to grasp is that Undying covered for what, in many games, was instant-destruction of all of your hexes upon the start of a match. Now, you are +1, which frankly is often not good enough for Ruin.

Putting hex totems in an open field or right next to a Gen is a common occurance. How long would that take devs to fix - 5 minutes per map?

yet it still occurred survivor side, which affected their decision making capability and their ability to react coupled especially with the janky movement restrictions that came alongside it. If you could learn to think outside of one perspective, you would understand that regardless of how it looked on most killers' screens how it appeared on survivors' screens still made it incredibly impacting and gave a lot of killers hits they would not have gotten with accurate depiction of killer positions on those survivors' screens. so keep being a smartass, it doesn't make you right.

Yes, it does. I ain't in easy street. Killers likewise experienced missed hits and other errata. You both are talking a bit like greens.
