Hatch Standoff

[1Twisted Puppy]

What happens when a survivor and a killer reach the Hatch at the same time?!
HATCH STANDOFF

She won't leave, because I'll grab her.
I can't hit her, or else she'll escape.

Devs. I love your game. Really, I do. I have over 1200 hours. But this?
This is Bull♥♥♥t.

Can we, as a community, PLEASE work together to figure out a better way for a sole survivor to escape rather than this stupid hatch?

This is honestly the best thing to do.

The hatch should have a timer on it, say after 2-3 minutes it will permanently close again. So the last survivor is actually motivated to at least try doing gens instead of afking at the hatch.

You do not use the whispers, you hooked the 3-rd survivor, so you do not deserve the 4k game. You should understand it because you have 1200+ hours.

I don't understand. Are you trying to say I should be punished because I don't use Whispers?

No,you shouldn`t,but don`tt hook the 3rd surv and use him as a bait.

The third survivor disconnected. Argument invalid.

I think the animation for going into the hatch should have invincibility frames(dodges traps), with the exception of being able to be grabbed by the killer.



The tradeoff, is that the animation for crawling through the hatch is so long that the killer has time to wipe the blood off his weapon and still grab the survivor. Hatch standoffs would be non-existent and it would force the survivor to yield it to the killer if the killer can get to it first.



I know it would extend games as mindgames started happening for the hatch, but that's still better than what it currently is....standing there...until one of you decides you're bored and can't take it anymore.

Lmao do killer especially if trapper or hag can place traps all around the last 2-3 gens and run back and forth between them til they catch them. Lets make things even easier for killers to catch survivors.. You ppl on here make me laugh.

Whoever finds the hatch first wins. If the killer finds it first, then they can close it, and that's that. If the survivor finds it first, they escape, and that's that.
The killer shouldn't be forced to sit in one spot over a mechanic that should have been fixed months ago.

So because two Killers have it "easy" already, the five others should be ignored.

I love Survivor main logic because it's ludicrous.

[Lemming]

I'd prefer something like a 3 minute timer, after which it closes. I don't mind survivors being able to escape from the hatch, I just hate the stand offs.

That idea is not balanced. The killer walks faster then survivor and he/she is not affraid to go whatever he\she wants. Sometimes killer can be to close to the survivor for a long time and survivor has no option to go and search the hatch. Sometimes the hatch spawn just in front of the hook where the 3-rd survivor was hooked. The 4-th survivor has no chanse to escape in that case. and he will waste the same amount of time by hiding and trying to repair the gens, but it will be pointless because the killer will break the gens and etc..
Literally the killer will need to kill/sacrifice 3 survivors and 4-th kill he'll get like a bonus.
Such solution of the problem is very bad.
