Survivors mains are the worst
Comments

There are a lot of ######### survivors out there. I mean we already both escaped and he will still criticize my play. Whatever.
There are also a lot of ######### killers for the record.

Lol I have a log of off game engagement on my ps4 from the last 4 years FILLED with entitled, toxic survivor mains who said all kind of ridiculous ######### to me (again, mind you they had to go out of their way to send me a message through psn, which takes at the very least several extra minutes just to tell me I'm trash and should kms lmao)
I even have a few voicemails. And God the stories behind those voicemails.... Again, this has happened almost exclusively against survivor mains. Killers typically don't bother from my experience, even the ones you make ragequit by looping a small rock against their 110 killer.

You're not the only one pal. Behavior needs to start cleaning up the trash otherwise more and more people will stop playing.

I guess you asked every single person if they are "survivor mains" and said yes.

Well then you're just part of the problem, there's a system in place to combat this but you refuse to use it because you "highly doubt" something will happen, if you don't report then nothing is going to happen, what do you lose besides 20 seconds of time to report?

I did report multiple times ingame alone, even permaban worth offences like k**, found them 2 days later playing the game. Let's change it like this i don't highly doubt, i am 100% sure

One side is definitely worse.
Survivors are way, WAY worse. It's not even a contest.

I have yet to get toxic messages or threats from a killer. Just saying.

They receive thousands of reports a day, 2 days isn't a significant amount of time at all, especially if it's someones first offence it may only be a day ban etc.
I've seen people report others for getting the hatch, you really have to think about the amount of reports they have to go through, thinking that seeing someone two days later is indicative of the moderators not banning people is absurd.

The only things that annoy me about survivors, is when they pallet blind you, body block you and teabag you.
then say.
"Legit tactics Breh"
and
"What was I supposed to do"
you found the hatch get out, you don't need to teabag on it to show off.
oh and don't forget, they play like that and then call you trash.
I play both sides and yeah killers can be annoying too. We already know that

I actually believe survivors are worse because there tends to be more of them.

A guy that threatned irl my gf got banned in less than 12 hrs. That time i filed a report on both ingame and help center. As i said, ingame reports alone are worthless.
1 -
Bear in mind, that you should also report actual threats to the police. I'm not kidding or exaggerating. Record every game. Any serious threat is actionable by law enforcement. So anyone who threatens your life (or a family member) rather than just saying, "I hope you get cancer," you should report it.

I hope this isn't something you unironically believe.

they are i hope survivors get nerfed

I literally just made a topic about this. Survivors complain of queue times etc..... But then they act the way they do. Nobody wants to play against people who taunt and have zero respect in game.
4 -
Am I the only one who doesn't get many toxic players post-game? Maybe it is a regional thing (I play on EU)
Worst that had happened was a SWF group said I deserved the bullying during the match because I ran Franklin's.. On Bubba. Sorry for using the killer's own perk I guess

yeah people can be very sore winners in this game.
sadly there is nothing you can really do about it other than reporting it whenever you encounter it (people do get banned for this kind of behavior).
if you feel like you cant handle such toxicity you always have the option to disable your chat entirely.
0 -
I dont know if I want to disable my chat. Because I like to speak after my games, just to say gg or to make a funny comment about something happened in the game. If I wanted to disable my chat I will not play an online game.
And for the few people with who I had a great talk after the game.
I dont want to disable my chat I think its sad..

Ill be honest, i havent even read your comment, just say "Grandpa_Crack_Pipe" in my notifications and laughed.

I'd say it's the toxicity of this game as it's easy to kill but hard to survive. So as a survivor you will consistently get a bad team and have a bad game and so it makes for alot of unhappy people. I've never played as the killer and felt frustrated, but as a survivor on the other hand I've gone from disinterest to rage quiting, to contemplating quitting this game all together. It's highly unfair to survivors as I can point out many examples as to why it's harder to play as such, and anyone who says otherwise probably only plays as the killer and likes their easy borderline free kills... Anyway my point is that the people playing survivor probably ain't that toxic but the game makes them that way. Blame the game.

Can't agree. I'm not a survivor main but I play survivor enough and I know the ######### they face. They face teammates playing poorly, teammates that suicide early, killers that can slug or camp and tunnel early, many killers with sweaty builds or/and strong powers in a row. But it never makes me mad at them in post game chat. I can ask "what did I do that you decide to tunnel me ignoring everyone you see?", but I never go toxic. Maybe because I grown up enough. But point is, player decide to be toxic not because game makes him go that way. We all play the same game, but not everyone get that mad in post game chat.

I disagree with that though. Let me ask you, how many survivors have you went up against as killer when you were having a bad game and some sweetheart survivor gave you a free hook? Now, how many killers have you went up against that give you a free hatch? There definitely seems to be a disproportionate lack of good will within one side of the community.

You have to be a special brand of bland to only play 20% of the game with thousands of hours in. Jesus Christ.

As a glorified professional post-game sweet talker, the best advice I can offer you is to click Continue as soon as the option appears.
Do not satisfy toxic gamers with the knowledge that you read their post-game message (let alone give them a response).
HOWEVER, as a toxic post-game keyboard warrior myself, I would love it if you felt so inclined to engage me with meaningless toxic banter back and forth until one of us decides to leave first. I am admittedly so toxic in post-game chat that if I were granted one free banhammer from BHVR, I would use it to chat-ban myself.
That said, you have full control over how you engage with the community after your match, and I implore you to consider the weight you place in the words of strangers you just played in an online video game.
Personally, I get some fulfillment out of competitive banter--the more creative the insult the better. I emotionally detach myself from the words I say or receive and I expect the people throwing it back at me to do the same. Some people need to vent to blow off steam or release the stress of the match--I do it because in my mind the match was just the first half, and post-game chat is the second. If the opponent rallied hard and played well during the match then I need to come out the gate swinging in the second half (post-game chat).
If the opponent ego's me and ignores my comment, thats a W for them in the second half.
If they throw words first and I ego them, thats a W for me in the second half.
If we both toss in some words, then we got ourselves a game and I could care less who comes out on top.
I don't advocate for toxic banter, but if you had to be nasty in post-game chat... my mental approach is definitely the best (:

Just ignore them. You will often find that these kind of survivors are those who are actually godawful at the game and get excited when they finally escape a game for once.

Sadly it's true the survivor either are too scared and escape or they all stay to teabag

I think you just find excuses for hurtful people who dont care that behind the killer there is a real person playing.
They told me to suicide myself just because I play killer. They dont need excuses they need to be banned from the game.

I'm not saying there isnt ######### people. Just saying this game is toxic to begin with.

I dont agree with "Player decide to be toxic not because game makes them go that way". While there are those who will grief simply because they're a sad individual, you saying the game has no bearing on it what so ever is false. You never got mad about something and said something you shouldnt have??? Highly doubt it. Point is the game is broken and makes for a lot of frustration, and a frustrated person is gonna be more emotional. There for more likely to lash out. Not justifying anyone's actions or things they say, but that the game itself plays a major role in this toxicity because the game is toxic...

Nurse and Spirit mains are the worst imo.
People who main nurse basically just instantly win; I don't see how that is entertaining for anyone.
