am i a toxic player?

so i only recently started playing the game, with my friend. and the first time we played, i got a little cocky since, i just started playing and i got pretty good at the game fairly quickly, but like, i never actually say anything cocky to other players, i always keep it in my head if i do. but my friend got mad at me for acting this way, and called me toxic. since then ive tried to be less cocky so then i can keep playing with him, but im still wondering if i was actually toxic.

    Maybe explain what you are doing that is consider as cocky?


    You are cocky..... in what way? Are you tbagging the killer, flashlight spamming them or....?

    no, i did none of that, i simply played the game as best i could by doing gens and saving hooked teammates. the worst i might have done, was say to my friend "are you already dead???" but less in a condecending way, but more disbelief. and a second thing that i can think of was, at the end of our last game, i go "funny how i lasted the longest when i only had rare/uncommon perks" when the rest had super rare and all that. other than that, nothing.

    Well your attitude might be a slightly cocky but nothing one should be bother over.


    Also perks does not = skills.


    rank does not = skills. I seen dozen of rank 1 survivors/killers that are so trash at the game you would think they installed yesterday or so. the matchmaking on this game is so bad.


    I seen people with 1k hours that cant even last more then 10 seconds in chases sometimes. I usually assume they are having a bad game or so or have only played stealth since they started to play the game

    of course, and since then, since i want to play more with my friend, ive kept any comments to myself, and trying not to be cocky, ive just been stressing out about it since it made my friend really upset.


    like, he posted this somewhere, not directly saying it was me, but i knew it was about me


    "i ######### hate it when im finally open to people about doing smth i really fing like with them, and then they start acting like a douchebag "oh look just a few seconds in and im so much better than you, xdxd!!!! your so garbage at this!!!" and then wonder why the ######### i dont invite people into my life. second ######### time on this same thing that its happened. like do you live off of being such an asshat? do you require making others feel bad in order to survive your daily life"

    i didnt call him garbage at the game, i didnt say i was better at the game than him, i would never call someone trash at a game, even if it was someone i dont know. even more so when i know he really likes the game.

    It depends, if you are playing Survivor you are hella toxic, if you play Killer you golden.

    Sounds like the issue is with their own insecurities, rather than you.


    @ClickyClicky very helpful, as usual. :)

    Either your friend is reading way into this or you are not telling as us more then you want us to know. Either way I would maybe break ties with him, you guys dosent seem to be that much of friends if I am honest
