Survivors making the game unplayable
Just had 3 games in a row last night where the game became almost unwinnable, the final game being the worst, it was a 4 man swf with a blackwater swamp offering, 3 petrified oaks, 4 alex toolboxs w/ saboing add-ons, almost all with breakout and boil over, they 99'd every hook and made it impossible for me to get even one hook in throughout the game, this is more of a rant then anything but how is this possible, why is this even alowed

I despise people who do that crap. I've had a Jake literally follow ahead to each hook ready to break them on me allowing the survivor run free. I don't mind a couple of sabo'd hooks, but when they literally trailblaze the map to break every single one, there's a serious design flaw here.
Side note: I took huge enjoyment watching that same Jake have the life drain from his eyes!

why is this even allowed
Because synergies are a thing @99gameknight

Those must've been some long breaks over the year. Sabo squad is a funny meme not a toxic tryhard build.

Slug them.

That's why I dodge when I see 3 toolboxes or more

Spoken like a true survivor main.

Actually they're a rank 1 killer get jebaited

I play both sides, me being a survivor main has nothing to do with it. I never dodge as killer.
Slap on Franklins and soft patrol where the item got knocked out because the survivor will want to come back to it if they are trying to sabo everything.
Alternatively, if you really want your hooks back so bad get that one perk that makes hooks respawn faster.
Either way, sabo = gens not being done. Slug until hooks respawn.

If you find it funny, more power to you. I play my games for fun, not for idiots to copy some internet post

Excuse me sir. The player in question plays survivor more than killer. Therefor, all of his opinions are invalid because he is incapable of thinking of anything other than things that benefit survivors. /s

Technically at this point anything I do has been done before and uploaded so I guess we all copy internet posts.

I've dealt with many sabo teams in the past and came out on top.
I'm not gonna deal with gen rush at red ranks. It is what it is

Don't have to be such an ass about it. Just sayin'
I play to have fun not be insanely frustrated.

FYI those same survivors NOT in a group are not very powerful, but in a group. They are pros. This game community will always be Survivor vs killer opinion . ;)

You play to not be challenged and get easier wins lol

Not unplayable, but certainly I can see how it wouldn't be enjoyable. I don't think there's anything the survivors can do to take away the killer's ability to play the game, unlike when a killer chooses to facecamp a survivor who can only struggle to buy time for the others. I'd definitely run Franklin's if I saw four toolboxes. As a survivor, the only time I bring in a toolbox is when I see my teammates are all geared up just to bait out the Franklin's. But more often I slap on Plunderers to see what I can find in that situation.

I will admit that red ranks are way above my skill level and I don't like being a rank 3 killer right now. I play to try and get some enjoyment out of the game not be gen rushed by every 3 - 4 man SWF every match who takes the game like it's literal life and death

Posts like this just compound the issue of soloq and swf by just lumping it in as 'survivors'.
Soloq is a trainwreck at this time and I wouldn't be suprised if swf is up and soloq is down or more soloq players have stopped playing due to this.
We always see these tribalistic survivor vs killer rants that people for their tribe come in and throw support for their tribe around. The group think mentality kicks in and people have their bias' confirmed through self-fulfilling prophecy and then go back to their lives.
gg next.

Happy new year everyone!

This gave me a few ideas.
1) The more hooks that are sabotaged, the longer it takes to sabotage the next one, and the faster others come back.
2) Hooks 'heal' themselves. That way, even if you 99% it, it'll regress after you leave it.

Do you want sabo to be more useless then it already is lol

I'm a casual. I could care less about rank or wins. I'm a red rank killer for the first time right now and I hate it. I'm out skilled by quite a wide margin.

If you want to not go against red rank tryhards, I'd think you'd actually want to play the toolbox matches and derank then, no?

Things like this is why I am a Nurse-main. If I am having a good day, I can deal with that #########

I’ve been playing in red ranks on both sides for a long time and still don’t lobby dodge.

It's pretty useless as it is. Unless you're doing a daily, nobody but SWF use it, because they can keep up to date on what's happening. Usually when it's a SWF doing it, they do it in a toxic manner. So why not shake things up?

Happy New Year Clinton.

Bring in an ebony mori if you see two or more toolboxes. They’ll either dc at the loading screen or be more cautious around you, thus, less toxic. If not, tunnel and mori them.
You could also master the nurse. I want to, but I hate how her vision gets impacted after a teleport.

Yeah there is nothing you can really do against that, it's pretty much over. That made me actually uninstall the game the first time, back when it was more common and at every rank. Thing is DBD is unfair, unbalanced, toxic, and generally has a lot of technical issues, but when it is actually fun it is a LOT of fun. So it's kinda a you just have to deal with it as best you can and move on, or just stop and leave DBD to play something else instead. It won't get better it's problems are too foundational, so you have to just roll with it.
Matchmaker and ranking is horribly unfair, you could be new to the game and still get 2000 hour SWF groups that just roll you easily. Yet the community would never admit their game has an actual fault making it unfair; and rather just tell everyone to get good- and that their actual enjoyment or having equally skilled matches does not matter.

With the matchmaking the way it is is, it probably wouldn't matter much. I just don't want to play against survivor who have loops and maps memorized while being gen rushed on top of it which happens even without the tool boxes most times.
Purple is my happy medium right now. Red rank matches just feel frustrating and miserable to play. No hard feelings btw

I guess I don't take this game too seriously like others and I'm glad I don't. I am facing red ranks in every match and I'm doing fine without having ruin equipped. Playing as Trapper too. You win some and you lose some. That's fine with me. Unlike with solo survivor, I feel have better control how the match is going to play. Usually survivors will 3 gen themselves when ruin is not in play, so even if the first two gens pop, they will usually screw themselves towards the late game.
I've faced sabotage crews and the best solution is to slug them. They will have unbreakable and will pick themselves up, but remember that it only works once! Once they use it, they're #########. And remember, if they're sabotaging hooks, they are not doing gens, which works in your favor. I've had a guy who had no mither equipped and was sabotaging hooks in my face and tbagging. Guess what I did? I just slugged him and camped him, ignoring everything else and would wait for him to pick himself up, only to smack him again. Over and over again. It was the most hilarious thing ever. He bled to death. See ya!

Trapper is my favorite killer rn and I think he’s actually pretty good. <3

I recently took another try at him and he is much better than people say. Playing well as trapper is satisfying.

True. Last night there were definitely some swf teams or whatever you call them. I like the team work and the challange. Got my butt kicked a few times, but that seems to be the way things are going.
