I don't know how many times I've died to 173 at the start because of the BS hiding spots he has in corners that I cant look in.

So I start a game, get past the intro, but as soon as I get out to the real game, I either die to 173 or constantly run into him behind every door.

IDK how the hell this happens when he's on the other side of a locked door and then I go into another hallway and he just appears in front of me.

Doesn't matter what difficulty I'm on either.

I know some map seeds spawn him more often, try using a different one.
