Just a rant
Ok I’ve only been playing for about idk like 5-6 months. My girlfriend got me into the game and I started as a survivor when she was like rank 7 so I like I faced high rank killers early on and had to learn fast to be competent. I jsut recently started killer and I’m proud to say I’ve studied and played a minimum of 3 games as every killer at around my current rank of 10. I know it’s not really high but I’m frequently matched with at least 1 red rank person. I came to rant cause my girlfriend and I don’t see eye to eye on this subject. I main Demo, Deathslinger, and Huntress. Idc what y’all say I’m consistent with them even against red rank so I play them. I’ve been reading a lot of forum discussions and i just hate seeing survivor mains saying all this ######### about killers not respecting some unspoken rules or how NOED is stupid and broken. I get so many hate messages after games (Xbox btw) that’s it’s starting to annoy me. Like what y’all can jsut sit there clicking your flashlight at me non stop. Dropping your items and picking them up during long loops and ######### but the second y’all are sitting there thinking your high and mighty Tea bagging the exit gates and I hit you with NOED and reel you in with deathslinger and hook you. You get to message me saying I’m the trash and toxic one??? I honestly don’t understand the survivor community. I’m slowly going up as killer and it’s seems like it’s getting worse and worse and Idk if it’s worth it to rank up more 😂 but like seriously why is it that no matter what I do in a game as killer. There’s always something stupid I did that’s considered toxic and that I should Kms. I may not have played long but I make it a point to reread old updates and getting to know everything there is to know about games I enjoy. So when someone tells me I’m playing cheap and being a demo main. It’s like, what you can’t move left or right looking behind you but you can sure use dead hard just fine? I solely run NOED now on all my killers just to ######### with those toxic people at the end gates and ######### who even message me and ######### before the game is over. For the love of god just leave if you have the exit gate open Seirosuly! Sorry for the rant just argh survivors are getting on my nerves

If they're mad at you you've done something right typically. I wouldn't worry a whole ton about it as it's senseless and seeing as it's xbox i'd assume it's some mad 13 year old or something. I don't feel it's worth getting upset about. I get comments constantly on my steam profile of people complaining about something i did in game. Just seems like a fact of if you play killer you're automatically going to get hate regardless. I expect to get hate every game i play as killer but i will still say gg in the post-game chat.

People just like to throw hissy fits when they don't get handed an easy victory. My preferred strategy is to not engage with those people. Although I can and do take issue with the way certain game mechanics work (as you can see from my post history), I'm not one to rage at a player for using any item or perk etc. that is available for them to use. The game is what it is.
And, helpful advice -- consider adding some line breaks to your rant, this would make it more readable!

As a person who has played killer since about the legions release, welcome to the club my friend. To be honest i get so many people who are toxic i get confused when people actually are nice to me in this game lul

The Killer community is just as toxic, and like you stated - it's only gotten worse. You want to know why survivors are post game toxic? Because Killers are in-game toxic. And while their words may being annoying post-match...they don't ######### up your bloodpoints or your rank, like Killer toxicity does. That's why survivors don't give a #########.
Also, NOED isn't toxic or broken. It's easily counterable and the person a survivor should be mad at when it pops are the other three survivors. Rock on with your NOED. 👍️

I don't really see how killers are super toxic in-game. Depends on your definition of toxicity. tunneling is not toxic and neither is slugging.

Sorry lol first time on the forums I’ll try to make it more readable in the future 😊

The same killers who consider flashlights and throwing down a pallet toxic.

I like how's it's written without paragraphs, a true rant indeed.

Yes, camping and tunneling are indeed toxic behaviors and they actually ruin people's progress in the game with little to no recourse by the survivor themselves. Where as anyone can ignore post-game chat and it has no bearing on your in-game progress whatsoever. Also, slugging can certainly be toxic depending upon how it is used.

So when, in your definition is someone tunneled? When are they camped? When is slugging toxic? Because that's going to be different for every individual survivor. How, as a killer, am I supposed to know when I cross the line and the survivor's feelings are hurt?
Killers have one thing they can do (show, chase, hook, wait) in order to create dead survivors, which is their only objective. Tunneling/camping/slugging are just survivor words to describe when they do too much of the one thing they can do, and the threshhold is different for every survivor. Hell, I've seen complaints about "proxy" camping, which if I have it right, is when the killer doesn't just totally abandon a hooked survivor.
Being polite enough as a killer to satisfy survivors is an unwinnable game.

Except neither of those things can eliminate a Killer from the game early before they even really get to play, nor do they guarantee a lack of BP or a depip. So no, those are not remotely comparable.

Oh I'm not disagreeing with you that the excessive use of the camping mechanic in this game is a problem. Especially because for me, the meta will never change, unless it changes. It can be a strategy, but it can also become easily abused. Killers who camp, especially those who camp excessively will suffer in the gatekeeper emblem and most likely depip.
Sad part is most of them don't care.

People don't like to lose. That pretty much sums it up

Most of the community, killers and survivors alike are toxic and salty. Killers think the game is survivor sided. Survivors think the game is killer sided. Your gonna get hate no matter which side you play.
I try to ignore the toxic people and just play for fun. And when I'm no longer having fun I just stop playing. Sometimes this game isn't worth the hassle of all the toxicity it's player base brings.
Sometimes it's just better to play something else.
