Do you CAMP?

let me tell you something, when I see survivors coming with FL and SWF am actually happy cause it means its gonna be a good game, we gonna have fun all of us, IF they hide and ######### then its boring, M1 M1 Hook Damage Gen

where is the fun now?

if every killer kills all 4 every time it means the game isnt balanced, there is no winners or losers, every one makes points of this game.. so make points, allow survivors to make points

your Objective is to Hook Survivors, Chase, Damage Gens, Sacrifice.. their Objective is to Unhook, Fix Gens, Open Gate, Search Chest, Cleanse totems

When you camp you just killing the fun for everyone, especially the one camped, am sure he didnt get into the game to keep pressing SPACE

Did you get into the game to Stand and M1 anyone coming close? then you need to find another game my friend

Stop complaining about SWF, stop complaining about FL, Stop finding lame excuses to camp and tunnel, you aint winning the million dollar contest killing all 4, and you aint escaping to heaven if you escape

HAVE FUN and STOP SWEATING

    game shouldnt take 20 minutes also, 7-10 minutes games are pretty much enough, move on get into another game, if gens get rushed means you didnt apply enough map pressure, if that happened because one survivor looped you well then you deserve the de-pip to get back to ranks that you can play against until you get better and move forward in ranks!

    i camp in mostly 2 different scenarios.


    1: i hook 2 people on hooks right next to each other and i have vision of both. Survivors are now bait that MUST be unhooked otherwise they all lose. it would be foolish of me to move myself away.

    2: i have no kills and theres 0 generators left all they have to do is open the gate yet i just caught a guy and hooked him. if i walk away i lose him, if i stay, i get a last chance for a last fight before the game ends and possibly some kills.


    Either way its a valid strategy in both scenarios.

    Usually only at EGC, other than that i try not to.... Unless survivors make it suuuper obvious that they're going for a save

    Yes, but it depends on the situation. Did I see a Jake chasing me while I was going to a hook? Then I know he's around. Do I remember when the Nancy unhooked a survivor not two seconds after I hooked with BT? Then I'm going to search the area. Do I know the group is super altruistic and will drop everything for the save? Then I'll move between nearby generators. Did they three gen themselves, and I have somebody on a nearby hook? Then I'll proxy camp. Is it the EGC? I'm securing that kill.

    My job isn't to insure the survivors have fun, much like it isn't their job to see me have fun. It's common courtesy, but not a requirement. If they make mistakes, I need to capitalize on it, especially knowing how fast gens pop. I won't face camp, unless the teabagger really deserves it, but depending on the circumstances, I might proxy camp, until I'm sure nobody is around.

    There are times where strategy and new developments in the match calls for camping. And I never de-pip for it if I DO end up camping as a Rank 1 sooo....

    I only camp if there's pretty much nothing else to do. If the exit gates are open, and a survivor is on the hook, then what else am I really going to do? Sometimes not even then. Not always worth it.

    Too often gens going quickly has nothing to do with "map pressure". If you are a killer like the clown on a map like Rotten Fields, and they survivors are doing gens optimally, there is nothing you can do. Also if the game is taking 20 minutes it's because the survivors aren't doing gens, and the killer isn't downing people quickly. If you don't like 20 minute games, do gens.

    If you camp then they should gen rush on steroids and then taunt you at the exit gate and then message you how much of a loser you are.

    not talking about EGC, at EGC there is no point in leaving hook if you lucky you might get another kill

    I love how killers talk about "Gen Rush, Gen Rush, Gen Rush"... Doing Generators and Cleansing totems are literally the only things we can do. Only 1 of 4 survivors gets to run the killer, so what else do you expect us to do?


    I mean you don't see survivors screaming "Hook Rushing!" when killers down all 4 survivors at the start of the match and kill us on 1st hook.

    Well there's a point sometimes. Often times I'll know somebody is coming or in the area, or even better yet, when there's two people, one trying to tug me away while the other is trying to go for the unhook. In a situation like that I find it hard not to camp and survivors will still whine at me afterwards.

    But yeah, being camped otherwise is annoying. I just got slugged by a Deathslinger like 3 or 4 times and got half my bleedout bar drained because for some reason (I honestly don't play toxic or bring super strong stuff, IDK why) he decided to keep knocking me down and not hook me, but also not let me play. I just don't get peoples' playstyles sometimes.

    Yes, not face camping, that’s rude and wrong. If one is on a hook and two of them are going for the save I’ll camp to add pressure on them, they’ll have to make a risky save and that’s worth the wait. I won’t down the person whose on the hook I rather injury the unhooker so both of them can waste time healing each other.

    not the camping that am talking about, but thats survivors fault to have 2 hooked at the same time

    Depends. If they got all the gens done and have a headstart to the exit gate,I might. If the player is blinding me every second,teabagging me,I might. I'm tired of going against players 10 ranks above me,to be completely honest. After a few matches,I MIGHT just do about anything. I mean seriously,I'm a green at best,going against an SWF with a map,key,and flashlights,all red rank...I'm going to have to play to the peak of my ability,or do whatever I have to to not give myself a headache lol.

    It's a simple thing for me really

    Are the survivors literally all around the hook and doing nothing else productive? or

    Are the gates powered?

    Then yes.

    Anything else? No.
