This game is unbalanced and killers get everything they want
I hate face camping. It sucks.

So killers wanted a Hex nerf? And they wanted Nurse to be gutted, practically unplayable for some due to bugs? If the devs cared about money as much as you say, theyd make survivors OP because survivors have more than 4 times the amount of killers.
Camping is a tactic that I'm more than fine with. Just do gens.
The game is at its most balanced state at the moment. You're clearly doing something wrong if you think it's this bad.

Camping is a strategy (not a very effective one but nonetheless), but if its happening to you wait it out and let the other 3 survivors escape. When you suicide in 10 seconds you encourage the killer to camp more by making it a viable strategy.

As a fan, and a survivor main, I disagree that facecamping should be removed. Disincentivised, perhaps, but not eliminated as a strategy altogether. Player agency is important - without it, the game becomes stale and boring really fast.

If killers got everything they want, the following stuff wouldn't be existing anymore:
- Borrowed Time
- SWF
- D-Strike
- Haddonfield
- Teabagging
- Hatch
- Edit: Keys
Feel free to correct me if there is something missing!
But here is the most important part:
Killers will not change a strategy, as long as it works. So stop rewarding facecampers by getting overaltruistic. Do gens and leave.

Unreliable sounds and garbage FoV say hello and dingdong you're wrong.

i giggled a little when i saw 'this game is unbalanced and killers get everything they want' right above another discussion entitled 'survivors have no empathy towards anyone'. it's really easy to throw blame in this forum buuut in this case? just do all the gens while the killer's facecamping. it's not fun, it's a total write-off round, but it's also not an effective tactic for the killer unless you go full reckless altruism mode.
you can absolutely call the facecamper a dick but to blame the devs feels false, they can't force people to play nicely with others.

Yeah, killers always get what they want. All killers want 5-minute gens because some swf was dropping pallets like hot rocks while their team rushes the gens. It's a little known fact, but all killers enjoy a good, undeserved DSing. Every killer player I know loves it when survivors run the immortllity combo, and Haddonfield, and map offerings in general. Keys too, and medkits, and blendettes crouching in bushes, made invisible by the lighting and sound issues of this game in a way that no other survivors are. And we can all agree that a shite team entirely carried by the all-too-common second-chance build is the absolute greatest thing in the game. 10/10, totally fair that survivors can use a couple of 1-off perks to recover from their own incredible failure but killers cannot and only have the option to not fail in the first place. Nothing wrong with that at all. All killers love this. You're lying if you say you don't.

Fairly sure this is satire.

I get facecamping is unfun and pretty braindead; but if you can't get at least 2 survivors escaped out of it then it was your own fault. It takes 2 minutes to fully kill someone on hook from start to finish. Since the killer can only camp 1 person at a time (usually) that means 3 people on 3 different gens will get them done before that survivor dies. Then if he camps again, 2 survivors on the last 2 and you escape.
Not fun or skillful but it only get's as much reward as survivors give it.

u forgot about keys man, thats like one of the most discussed/hated thing :D
I thought this is another killer cry thread, you got me on the first half ngl. Just do gens while he facecamps and/or run kindred as solo player. Kindred is seriously the best solo perk you can run, gives you instant info if he camps and what the other team mates are doing.
I think DbD is currently at the most balanced state for solo / max duo swf group against a killer.
Please watch this video to realize what survivors had back then, basicly immortality with REAL infinites, endless pallets, slow killer animations, blinding killers while they hook, insta gens, insta heals etc https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q1fkX3H84SE

You want somethin done about face camping? If you see it, DONT ENGAGE. DO THE DAMN GENS.
The only reason people do it AFTER certain ranks Is because people try to save instead of punishing them.

if u are just complaining about face camping i get it it is unfair when is leatherface or billy because u know there is literally anything u can do agaisnt it, and should be adressed i say it as a killer main and i never do that because i know is duisgusting and cheap but i also think should work in EGC because is the only reliable way to secure at least 1 kill but doing that with 4 or 5 gens has no purpose and should be adressed maybe increasing the hook time by 5 minutes or so to make sure survivors cna do the 5 gens or punishing the killer somehow but only if is a chainsaw killer like leatherface or billy, agaisnt the rest u can really do something agaisnt it, take the hit and use borrow time and will work.

Just in case this isn't bait (because brand new account, very obvious bait topic etc.) am I the only one that finds facecamping hilarious? Idk man but coming from someone who watched/watches a lot of Marvel 2 and 3, and Fighting Games in general, the "scummy tactics" in DbD are so tame in comparison to the ######### you see in FGs and FPSs. It's not the best comparison but the level of salt they generate in FGs is so much worse than whatever generates salt in DbD, which is apparently almost everything at this point.

The game isnt killer sided tho? Its actually extremly balanced imo

The Devs only want one thing and its disgusting....
/s

Just a real question for my interest. When do you think the game is balanced? What must be the result on the endscreen? What does you make feel it is balanced? I mean, if you say it's unbalanced it must differ from your opinion on a balanced match. So, when is it balanced 🤔?

Like getting sound fixed?

Are you seriously saying that? Game is survivor sided. Fake some rescues and bam..... you are rescued if the killer hits your friend trying to pick him/her. #AddANewGenSlowingPerk

Camping is very effective. There was a famous streamer camping and doing NOED and getting 4ks over and over again.

But I have been facecamped every game I've played today and it is demoting me. We shouldn't be punished for the killers noobiness.

Face camping WAS removed from the game already.
Survivors were given the ability to unhook from any angle to bypass it.

But how is facecamping everything i want?
I dislike regular camping, to start with...

Love it when somebody clearly just created an account just to complain

And yet I can't remember the last time I've been camped. Yet again, it's a tactic which the devs have confirmed they have no intentions on changing because it's easily counterable by doing gens. It's as viable as the survivors make it.
0 -
It's only effective if the survivors suicide on the hook or everyone else throws themselves at the killer for the save. The survivors completely control how effective it can be and for that reason its a poor strategy to rely on.

Me as a killer checking to see if I "got everything I wanted".

I’ve had a very similar experience. It happens now again again, but honestly I feel like a lot of these complaints are from people who call it facecamping when the killer is anywhere near the hook or able to get back to it before they escape the area completely. Same for tunneling, if you hook them twice in a row no matter the reasons you’re a dirty tunneler. Doesn’t matter if they literally ran out in front of you a good 40 meters from the hook. You’re supposed to let them escape!

I didn't want Nurse and Billy bugs.
0 -
if we get everything we wanted SWF shouldnt be in the game but still is, if we get everything we wanted nurse and spirit shouldnt have get their nerfs but still they got a nerf, keys are still in the game, awful combiantios setups are still rolling and been rolling for 4 years with some changes, so yeah we get everything we want.

That makes no sense what so ever. The killers job is to kill, not to play fair.
Facecamping is when the survivors face and killers face are face to face. The killer patrolling around is proximity camping. Both can be countered by sticking to the gens.
Tunnelling is a made up phrase. What tunnelling actually is, is that you go for a survivor for no reason other than to annoy them. Not because the survivor who was just unhooked is injured and killing them early on gives them momentum.

This has been disproven so many times it hurts, even Otzdarva played a facecamping Bubba build and got 4k all the time even with teams that rushed gens.
Facecamping is rewarding killers and there is no time for all the gens to finish if he gets an early down.

I think I might collect more stats to see if camping Bubba works.
