Survivors shouldn't be able to 99% the Exit Gates.
It completely negates the point of End Game Collapse existing; once the door is open you're supposed to be on a time limit to rescue, loot chests, or whatever else you want to do at the last minute. 99% doors are effectively open, but the EGC timer just doesn't start, meaning it may as well not exist. And no, "just open it yourself" is not a valid response, as that requires the Killer wasting precious time they shouldn't need to waste doing something the game should be doing itself.

That wouldn't work. People would just 89% the gates instead, then hold it until it progresses to 90% and let go to instantly open it.

Maybe it should go in 10% intervals. For example, once you hit 40%, let's say you progress it to 47% but let go. The gate would immediately snap back to 40%.

Then let's say later you get the same gate to 80% but let go at 82%. It snaps back to the last 10% marker you hit, which this time would be 80%.

And that's why killers can open exit too

So did you just, like, ignore the last sentence on purpose or?

Agree. Way too many games have I been baited thinking exit gate still needed full power. Then when I run there to try and get some kills they open and run out while the other player(s) are either opening the other exit gate or finding the hatch. Broken.

All the people saying “baby killers” are the same people to play in a SWF, run SB and DS, teabag at exit gates, and then throw “gg ez” in the chat.

Well of course, their self-esteem is built around playing the advantaged class in an imbalanced pvp game.

Look, if you see a door with 3 red lights as a killer it takes you just a couple of seconds to open it. If you think EGC is gonna give you an advantage then open the door, it's not a long process.

That's if you're already in sight range of the Gate. If you're elsewhere on the map, and come to check the gate and it's at 99, that isn't "a couple seconds" that you've lost out on, it could easily be 30 or even a minute that the timer should have been ticking down.

Maybe the exit gates should automatically regress when not being opened? Say, if survivors 99d the gates, they would regress back to zero in 40 seconds (double of gate opening time)

Yeah, that's the most obvious solution, but the devs have said they don't want full regression because it would make it too easy for mobile killers like Billy and Nurse to just run back and forth scaring people off. I think it'd be fine if it just regressed to the nearest 10. Like, at 99 it regresses to 90, at 86 it regresses to 80, etc. That way survivors dont lose all their progress if they get zoned off, but they also can't simply cheat the system and make EGC not exist.

Egc was made to avoid hostage situation. Egc wasnt made to give you free kills. Open gates yourself
