Extremely Frustrating Match (Rant)

    I'm sorry you experienced that rough game and I have been in your shoes before. I've had matches against SWF's who constantly teabagged clicked their flashlights and what not and it's just horrible. I just wanna sit down after a long hard day and I get toxic survivors. This doesn't happen every match but I mean come on I don't do that to someone behind a screen. They could be having a rough day and just wanna hop on a video game to take their mind off of it.

    As for the post game chat I always turn messaging to friends only because I don't have time to sit around and argue with people over a game. I think you should do the same. Again I'm sorry those survivors were mean to you.

    Believe me, breaks help. I stopped playing from Slinger's release to Pyramid Head's release and it felt so much better to play. Higher ranks really stomp you down man, it sucks.

    It happens man. I'm going to say something which I hope is helpful, and isn't taken the wrong way. You are, if I'm not confusing you with someone else, a proponent of playing NICE. I think I recall you, many times, talking about how you try to avoid tunneling, trying to give as many hooks as you can, and don't camp. While I commend you on taking on such a challenge, there has to be a point where you let go of that personally imposed convention. There is a level of Survivor (particularly SWF) where they are playing with every competitive edge they can squeeze in, and then congratulating themselves on how good they are for simply stacking advantages.

    I have no doubt you are a good Killer. So I'm asking, am I confusing you with someone else? Did you try to play nice? Or did you, as I would have in a heartbeat, shift into maximum efficiency to put them in the ground. When you mention "clicky, hovering types" I hear an option for focusing on one, putting them on a hook and using them as a bait to slow down the Gen-Rush. When I hear well-coordinated SWF, I hear: time to choose to take a 4v1 to 3v1 early to balance out their competitive edge. Do you see where I'm going with this? If I am confusing you for another Player, I apologize. That is why I'm asking? Are you that guy who is trying to play nice, and did you?

    You are, unfortunately.

    I'm the guy who tunnels when he knows people has DS to try to tilt them.

    Console.

    Can't stop people from messaging and two of those three aren't viable.

    Not on Xbox.

    Best you can do is Do Not Disturb, which doesn't work with people who friend you.

    It does indeed.

    You just have to sit there until they decide you aren't worth it.

    That is why I asked; I wish I could remember the name of that reformed Killer who doesn't fight mean anymore. :) Well if you were playing as hard as you could, rattlesnake mean and they still steamrolled you, it is just a fact that we all pull that style squad now and then. The problem is those squads are growing in number. I keep pointing out to people that:

    1. The longer a SWF plays together they better they get.
    2. The more Solo is strangled the more SWF we get.
    3. Thus, the more highly coordinated super SWF we get building up.

    It is a feedback loop.

    That is terrible and so stupid. This game became way more enjoyable when I set my psn profile to friends only.
