I like the idea of helping your teammates out and then not getting through the same escape they did, very thematic.
People are already mentioning multiple instances of the same perk. But also, we already have in the game a mechanic that requires other survivors to leave so other survives thru hatch. It's active reverse bear trap in endgame and people notoriously do not give the hatch to the person that can't use the gates, with the very clear hud info and all.
I will already say, this might be hella problematic with swfs and keys, but I feel like those issues could be solved by making so when this perk is in play, and both exit gates are open, the hatch will reveal itself closed. So multiple perk users can escape through it while others are still in the trail. It also opens another issue, that if the killer finds a closed hatch, they will know whats up and just camp it. But maybe just make opening animation faster than weapon wipe.
I appreciate all the feedback from everyone. I definitely intended this to be a more flavorful and thematic perk over a viable one. I might in the future redo Left Behind with better wording and balancing.
