Honest question, Do people find doctor toxic?

It seems people get really annoyed when i play doctor (distressing, overcharge, unnerving presence & BBQ)

and people get all toxic after chat, no camp, no tunneling

    He isn't annoying especially with that build. Just make sure not to 3 gen and that build won't help against a good team. Sorry if I sound mean but unnerving and overcharge doesn't do much against good red ranks..

    But to answer your question it's definitely not toxic. If they lose to that then they are just salty babies lol

    not mean at all, but thx, I'm r11, so it's mostly for fun of a build,


    I guess the problem is that survivers don't realise they always leave out 3 close by gens and you all know the rest

    Players find losing toxic. Not really the method they lost by.

    Always feel worried commenting on peoples builds so thanks for not taking offense lol

    Yea once doctor has a 3 gen with that build it takes good coordination to win. That's maybe why they get annoyed.

    Not Toxic.

    It's just too easy to find survivors and it's too easy to deny them a vault or a pallet drop.

    M2 denying you a vault thus granting a hit shouldn't be THAT easy.

    But eh...Doctor isn't for everyone and I'm thankful I don't see so many.

    hes not toxic, but certain people find the static effects on screen from him very bothersome (like me)

    I think a lot of people hate his static blast. To some, its "cheap" or "unfair" that this power allows for him to find people without using a perk and that it also has a huge range.

    He the only killer that can lock out actions. Pretty sure that why people find him toxic especially during hook saves.

    I don't think Doctor is innately toxic, but the Doctors I play against tend to be more rude than any other Killer. They usually enjoy hitting the last hooked Survivor repeatedly or stand in front of them while pressing M2. Maybe the Doctor attracts the more toxic players? 😏

    That's just in my experience, of course!

    No. Simply playing a character is not toxic. They just need to make sure they don’t 3 gen themselves.

    People get annoyed by Doctor because he is DESIGNED to be annoying. And to be honest? It works great.

    I even prefer going against Doctors because I find them easy enough to deal with, since he's a predictable killer.

    Well, I think that playing a character can't be toxic in this game. People just don't like him because he's annoying. Honestly I don't really think that his static blast is that good if at least 3 survivors are still in game. At some point someone will have to run with killer, so the rest of survivors could repair generators. It's way worse when there is only one or two survivors left. For example when two survivors are still alive it could probably be hard for one of them to unhook the other one if he gets hit with static blast. But anyway since I started to writing this I wanted to say just one thing. Doctor's ability to stops survivors from vaulting or dropping a pallet should have never existed. It's not even annoying, it's stressful. It makes everyone who died because of it angry. Once when I died because of it, I got that mad, that I started using calm spirit. It was like 2 months ago and I'm still using it. This isn't really good perk, but every time I play against the Doctor it makes a game so enjoyable for me. I wish that devs would change it, so I could save one of my perk slots, but I can't get everything, right?

    There are no toxic killers, or survivors for that matter. Only toxic players. I suppose you could argue certain killers and survivors draw in toxic players though.

    I agree with those that say that playing as a character can't make you a toxic person. With that being said i enjoy playing as and against Doctors., it's a really different playstyle that i enjoy. 🙂

    Doc is actually one of my favourite killers to go against...I have no idea why but he is, I don't even like playing as him that much. Maybe it's the fact that he's constantly chasing people, nobody can hide, which is the most boring thing to do in this game, so everyone's getting involved. And imo, his loop denial abilities are more fun than a lot of other killers...( 🔫 . This was the best gun I could find but you get the point). He's good but he's not overwhelming or broken. I'm also a HUGE fan of the "mad scientist" theme in media and his laugh and visual design are both amazing.

    No killer is toxic, players are toxic. Using the killers abilities is, in no way, toxic. The problem is that you have to play differently when facing the Doc, and some people just can't adapt to that. Just ignore those people in chat.
