Why rage quit???

Can someone please explain to me why you rage quit? I mean why even play the game if you’re going to let your teammates down? I’ve literally played in games where my teammates and I all have one last life remaining and 5 machines and we’ve miraculously made it out. If that hasn’t happened to you then let me tell you it’s possible. The game is supposed to be challenging and therefore it’s fun, it wouldn’t be fun if you win every single time but there’s always a chance. Anyway, why play if you’re gonna rage quit when you’re hung for the second time? SMH

    Yes, it's probably most frustrating thing in the game. They are weak. You can't do anything with that.

    They argumen that like they don't want to waste time and they don't care about teammate's fun. But actually they waste even more time in my opinion. Like they started game and cut it from start. Then they look for another game, and if they don't like it, they leave. Instead of 2 games they play 1,5. And that half of the game is actually one big wasted time.

    Any game with bad start can turn out with comeack. Quiters never know that.

    So many times we had rage quiter on start, and manage to get 4 gens before die. Obviously if he didn't leave, we would escape. But he probably don't like to play against certain killer. Even if person playing killer not that good performing.

    They're selfish and entitled, that's why. Rather than letting the match play out, they guarantee that their team lose because things aren't going their way.

    I'll only DC or kill myself if I feel that the game itself is unfair. For example if the killer is using a build that gives them the easiest chance to win and make the game as unfair as possible in their favor (forever Freddy, iri head, etc) or if I felt that the game screwed me over. Like the killer got a BS hit on me because they have bad internet. In cases like that I could care less about DCing because the game itself isn't fair.

    The answer is in plain sight, no? People rage quit because they're frustrated with the game, and pressing alt-f4 or switching off the console is like a quick feeling of relief for them. They made the decision to shut the game off and walk away to chill out for a bit.

    ...I'll never understand how video games tilt some people so much, but oh well. I think it's a good thing that they chose to just walk away from the game instead of raging even harder.

    A lot of survivors get so salty about killers but, as a survivor main, survivors are more of a problem to themselves than any killer ever is.

    If a killer face camps, take pleasure in holding them at the hook for the full duration. They want you to give up

    why play a legion game with thana, dying light, ruin, corrupt and double mend add ons? why play an iri head game? or any game where your team mates suck because rank means nothing and 1-4 is full of people who only know how to hide behind trees now pretty much. just struggle and go next.

    I played with 3 survivors and I'm guessing they were friends.

    The first survivor gave up the game when he was on the hook, he started to kill himself on the first hook.

    The others did the same thing.

    I went to save the last one although I saw he was about to surrender his soul to the entity.

    After the save, he went to search for the killer position. making him hook him again.

    The killer noticed what had happened and let me escape.


    Some people don't want to play against a particular killer,

    They feel like they have no chance etc.

    But I still don't understand what makes them give up after the first hit or hook. it does not mean that you're not going to make it at the end.

    Reasons I'll rage quit: Sandbagging team mates, Iri Head Huntress. That is mostly it tbh.
