Played solo survivor for the first time in ages

So I just wanted to clear up a few unfinished archive challenges and stupidly decided to go for them solo. Here are my experiences

1) Me and another survivor start work on a generator in front of us at the start of the trial. Another survivor strangely takes offense to this and throws the teddy out of the cot, drops a pallet and fast vaults it over and over and over again until the killer comes along. Needless to say that was a hook suicide game, I see nothing has chanaged in regards to trolls

2) Have a Pyramidhead that likes to stick around hooks, team isn't doing too hot in chases (PH OP!!). So I take it upon myself to tbag him which I hate doing but I need the aggro as I'm the only survivor that hasn't been hooked yet and I feel I can do a better job than the rest, so I run him for a while and a few gens get done before he gives up and goes for someone else. He gets 1 person out and shortly after we get down to 1 gen. 3 survivors, 1 gen, totally doable. Well one survivor decided they had played enough and they just wanted their win button so they key out completely screwing me and the other survivor, killer ends with a 3k ironically because of a key. Know what the saddest part is? because the hatch awards 7k points the survivor who gave up, who had the early escape actually ends the game with the most points. The game rewards you for leaving early and ruining the game for the remaining players. 1 hooked.

3) Huntress stands around a hook waiting to throw hatches at anyone that gets close. The survivors on my team rub their brain cells together and decide that the best strategy is to just zerg rush the hook and hope that somebody makes it. All end up slugged/hooked forcing me to go for the rescue. Needless to say when it was my time on the hook I gave up immediately.

There were other games but these were the highlights. I think the only normal halfway decent game I had was against a Legion ironically.

It's really tilting how solo nobody ever brings DS but when you play killer it's rare to find anyone without it. It's also genuinely surprising how many survivors are bad at the game, coincidentally a lot of these players run Sprint Burst. Sprint burst is to survivors what NOED is to killers, it's a perk that carries you but actually hinders your learning and development of the game.

All in all I don't think I'll be touching this for another year archive challenges be damned. I know some of these issues have been around forever but I'm genuinely saddened that trolls are still a thing.
