Hello,

I was playing a match today and in the end game chat someone wasn't happy with how I played, idk what I did wrong tbh. He said I didn't do gens but I did like 2 and a half gens. I gave everyone a color instead of names, I am purple. :)

Here are some screenshots and a video of the full match, please let me know what I did wrong.

    You did nothing wrong!

    This game tends to bring the worst out in folks. Its always someone else's fault the match didn't go their way.

    Its unfortunate people have this attitude. It best to say your gg wp and then move to next match!

    Keep doing your best and have fun ♡♡♡

    I mean, from their perspective, it makes sense.

    Thing is, 17k on escape as the obsession meant you have 11k points across other objectives. You had 0 hooks in the end, meaning the killer had a lot of pressure on 3 survivors and 0 on you. Which means 1 of 2 things: 1. the killer never chased you on purpose or 2. the killer never knew where you were and therefor never chased you.

    Add on to the fact that you probably left the match to secure a crown you'd never get, since Cheryl is licensed. If there was anyone who could afford to take the pressure of teammates, it was you.

    Correct me if I am wrong, but out of those 11k points, 7k-ish were for objectives, leaving 4k-ish left for altruism and chase. After you unhooked and healed the jake, you recieved a total of about 3k points in there. Leaving only about 1k points in chase, most of which were after you unhooked Jake.

    So essentially, you were a gen jockey who was too afraid to distract the killer for your teammates. You had 2 minutes left on the hook, had practically no chase and instead of protecting the jake who was dead on hook, you went for a selfish escape that lead to 2 kills, when it could have been a 3 man or even 4 man escape.


    It's not that you were a bad player, you just decided that team is actually spelled tiim so you can take all the i's.

    It looked like a perfect game to me. Some people are just toxic. They would have no clue what you're doing the entire game to be able to say you're just hiding and crouching around.

    You did gens and unhooked a teammate with a heal. Looks like you have a few things to learn but you did well. I would’ve been happy with a teammate who did gens. Most of the time I can’t even get that.

    The only criticisms I can provide is that it looked like you took a bit too long to figure out that Legion had the global Terror Radius add on and not touching a gen until about the 2:25 mark. Some of that second one is understandable between Corrupt, Global TR, and the Infectious Fright going off on you, but it did seem a smidge long to me.

    Your teammate was probably salty that all 3 of them were on death hook and you hadn't really taken a chase yet. There is some validity to that. After all if a Killer never touches one particular survivor, people are guaranteed to start dying at the 7th chase instead of the 9th. However, I don't really know how good you are at taking and surviving the Killer's attention. If you had taken chase and gone down very quickly, you would have put your team in an even worse spot and maybe no one would have gotten out.

    So yeah... overall I'd say a few minor mistakes at the start and then you made a judgement call that your teammate didn't agree with. Nothing worth getting the salt thrown at you though.

    The people saying you did nothing wrong are obviously not team oriented players. The team really needed you to take pressure off of them as their hook states piled up. You have to keep track of your teammates hook states and be willing to trade yourself for the good of the team. Especially here in this game. Yeah you did gens, which is better than 90% of solo players already but you gotta make the next move up on protecting your team and taking the killer's pressure.

    Like, why let the guys on death hook do the looping and rescuing? Especially when you have taken no hooks at all?

    The gen Jockies who refuse to do chases are usually the ones ill seek out and kill when there are 2 survivors left alive.

    Reason why I hate the "I did x amount of gens and my teammates left me to die on first hook at egc" posts. It's like, yeah, they're gonna die if they come save you because they used all their hook states to distract the killer while you gen jockey'd the whole match, refusing to take pressure for your team so they have hook states left to rescue you.

    Nice assumption. My playstyle is completely different than ops but she is free to play the game as she sees fit.

    If you want your teammates to do what you want play swf.

    Why did the guys on death hook do the looping and the rescuing of their own free will? Why would OP do it if someone else is?

    U would be surprised how much you can see with kindred and bond.

    As a solo survivor who has no guarantee you will be rescued off the hook, I can understand avoiding the killer as much as possible if your goal is escape. But as 4 survivors trying to work together to survive, you could have gotten more involved with rescuing and taking pressure off of the other survivors.

    You do walk and crouch a lot. If you aren't the one that has aggro from the killer, you could run more and waste less time getting to a generator. You started to be able to move at 8 seconds into the video and touched a gen for the first time at 2:21 if I remember correctly. That is 2 minutes of not really doing anything at the start of the match. It takes 80 seconds to do a gen. If you would have gotten to one right away, maybe more of the team lives.

    It is entirely up to you how you want to play, as long as it doesn't break any of BHVR's rules. Don't worry too much about what others say. If you want to be a better teammate and also earn more blood points, get in more interactions with the killer so you can take some pressure off of the others and earn points in your boldness category.

    You did fine. The start was a little slow, but that's mainly on the first survivor for taking the chase to main even though the top side of the map was corrupted. Big mistake on their part to not run the killer on the corrupted side. They basically ran the killer to the only place gens could be worked on, and the killer had Infectious. Pinned a lot of the team on the corrupted side. Everyone could try to bum rush the other side, but if the killer is aware, you're going to be starting gens with 4 stacks of Thanat.

    The person that complained didn't have kindred or bond, so they wouldn't know. Plus I watched the whole match and OP wasn't crouching around. They were looking for a gen to do and when they were needed for a save, they did it.

    You didn’t do anything wrong. You even shorted yourself- you did 3 gens. You even left the last one you were working on to run across the map for a basement save. I don’t understand why the Zarina called you out- she wasn’t the first to die and the gens were done thanks to you. I guess you could have body blocked for Jake when he was on death hook, but he didn’t say anything so it’s all good. Don’t stress it. Nice color pattern to help us follow btw lol.

    I wasnt saying they were. I didnt watch the video so I dont know one way or the other. I was just replying to your comment that you dont know all the things your team is doing. I run perks like that in solo specifically so I know what my team is doing. This allows me to know what I need to do.

    You survived, that's your job and yku did it better than they did. 17k is a reasonable enough contribution, especially if you fix 2-3 / 5 gens alone.

    You did fine. People who complain about playstyles like yours are the ones that seem to forget you actually need to do gens to escape. You're not getting out by 1v1ing the killer.
