The Sweatiness Increases

Am I the only killer who has noticed that console survivors are sweatier than the average pc player? I have never been genrushed, had more hiding, or even seen BNP until crossplay. Not to mention the horrible lag and ######### attitude with console players.

It might just be my experience, but that crossplay symbol means: Lag, teabags, SWF, strong items +addons, and strong perks.

I have had a streak of complete losses, not even a single kill for the last 6ish games, all crossplay. I turn off crossplay and 4k the very next game.

Anyone else having a similar issue?

    Well, I had two Console-Aces with Flashlights today. I told my SWF-Friend that those are probably guys who dominate Console Killer but will suck against a PC-Killer.

    And well... They tried to go for Flashlight Saves. We got 4 Gens done and the Killer got two Hooks (one of the Aces and myself), went after me after I got unhooked, I got downed. The one Ace did not finish the last Gen, but wanted to go for a Flashlight Save. Which works very well, because Killers are blind and they dont see Scratchmarks (/s)... So he went down.

    The other Ace, instead of just waiting until Legion picked me up (for a Pallet Save) threw the Pallet and attempted a CJ-Tech, which only works against bad Killers (really, Kids - dont trust the Youtube-Videos, this works like 1 out of 20 games), was injured and down shortly afterwards. We lost this game.

    So, completely different experience from you. It is not the platform, its the players. Some Console Survivors are awful, some are good. You probably got unlucky that you got good Survivors that often in a Row, but I would not base it on the Platform at all.

    SWF squads who want to gen rush will gen rush you can't do anything to stop it, they spread out to separate gens and M1 if they aren't being chased, this is why they are considered the "power role" in the game, you simply don't have the time to get any pressure to slow them down. I'm a rank 1 survivor and killer who regularly SWFs and puts down SWFs and I can say that just accept the lose, the game simply isn't balanced around you being able to counter an optimal group of survivors focused on gens. Best to move on to the next game because truly good survivors don't try to hammer out gens as quickly as possible, they enjoy interacting with the killer.

    Have you been only in a dark hole the last 3 years? DBD was always like that since end of 2016 at least.

    Dropping a Pallet and vaulting it so that the Killer cannot break it, but instead picks up the Survivor, which results in a Flashlight Save.

    If a Killer knows about that, they can simply press M1 instead of Space and they are good.

    I understand that you had a bad game against console players and i'm sorry but please don't make hasty generalizations about us please. Not all of us are sweaty and toxic.

    It seems like one of the worst "techs" I have ever seen.
