Camping is not a bad thing.

Looking at the balance right now, it is one of the only few things a killer can do to earn his points, pips etc. And stop making excuses. You can save a guy even from a facecamper if you try. Borrowed time, good timings, distractions. flashlight work. Done.

    This is a video game.. video games are meant to be fun.. No survivor or sane killer wants to stand in one place not doing anything when fun could be had

    Try being camped while other survivors hide in a closet whole game. But yes it's not a killers fault.

    Never complained about it you are just jumping to conclusions I have no idea why. I was just saying that it wasn't fun to run is circles after you said I should go out and have fun. The way this game works if I leave the hook and I chase somebody in circles it isn't fun and I lose in the process(sometimes depends on the situation) you want killers to stop camping? I want survivors to stop pallet looping. It's annoying but it's their goal to do just those things. that's why I don't complain but you complain(is obvious you don't like) about camping

    I am a killer main, but I play survivor regularly.

    Camping on rank 1 against good players when not playing nurse or hillbilly is definitely forced.
    I had good games around rank 1, without camping, but in the most cases, I verse hardcore tryhards pallet looping until 2-3 gens are left, they then are my bait for other survivors to waste their time, in other words, I proxy camp / hard camp their ass off (yes, i do tunnel).

    Usually I get 3-4 kills (hatch was never a good idea).
    But whenever I verse really good swf survivors, I don't stand a chance as they just resuming to do a gen and when I leave, they come to save. I can't mindgame then, I am screwed then.

    This game is just pure cancer for experienced killers who don't want to run around a structure minutes over minutes.

    Camping wouldn't be a thing if survivors weren't overpowered.
    It wouldn't make sense then, but people like Ochido don't get that, saying killers are balanced but then complaining about campers.

    Alltogether, when you complain about camping, you can't say killers are the power role as camping only exists, because survivors can waste so much of the killers time.

    Until the game is fixed, camping and tunneling will remain and yeah, it's not a bad thing, same goes for pallet looping.
    It's just not fun...

    Camping is good against stupid survivors ( the ones rushing blindly to help their hooked friends ). But against smart ones its a not really interesting strategy i think. Survivors can gens rush while you re waiting the hooked death. And smarter ones even can unhook their friends playing some mind games against the killer. So its all depending the group you re playing against.
