If a survivor wants to kill themselves on first hook, please just let them.
If you rescue a survivor who is trying to kill themselves on first hook, they won't return to playing the game just like you want them to. They want out of that game and they will make an effort to get out of it, no matter what, and they'll be spiteful about it too.
Dropping all pallets on the map? They'll do it.
Fail every skillcheck while following someone around even if they didn't save? They'll do it.
Spam loud noise notifications near you? They'll do it.
Lead the killer to you by "accident" in a chase? They'll do it.
They'll do more, too, but this is the most common things I've seen and had done to me because someone rescued them from the hook.
So, please, stop saving people who are trying to kill themselves on first hook. Your 1500 altruism bloodpoints aren't worth the entire team being jeapordised even more than if they'd just died. Because instead of the game becoming a 3v1, it becomes a 3v2, and that's infinitely harder to win.
Record them, report them, I don't care, just please let them move to another game instead of having them ruin the one they're stuck in. I'm so tired of it.

While they remain in that game unwillingly the best case scenario is that they'll go AFK, at which point the killer will most likely ignore them due to them being AFK. When they start getting more malicious with their actions, the killer still ignores them because now the survivor is helping the killer out. There is almost no benefit and a lot of downsides to doing this, unless you are a 3man team and the one trying to leave is a rando.

How can i tell the difference between a survivor wanting to get out of the game and a survivor meming trying to get a kobi before i unhook?

They can always DC or AFK if they don't want to play. Should they work with the killer, they'll get reported and if they do it often banned as well.
As killer I hate people who give up on their teammates like that even more so if they work to hinder them. So I just deny them the death they want so much and slug them for a while, letting others survive on occasion.
I wish ranking managed to put people who play like that with other people who do it so that people who actually play the game can play with each other and not them.

If someone is killing themselves on the hook (especially right away), the game is basically dead anyway. I'm going to try to get my WGLF stack and Altruism points. They want to leave so badly, they can go find the killer again or DC.
Reporting them isn't going to do us any good as it's not against the rules to do it

Plenty do, but plenty more stay there just to ruin everyone else's games

if they end up missing the first struggle check is usually a fair sign, or if they go for the third kobe

Survivors killing themselves on hook for their own bosted plays is always a sight to see.
Worse thing is Survivors trying to Kobe when you're trying to save them though, do that with me and I'll let you hit struggle. Don't go neglecting my points

I'm not the one killing myself, I'm the one stuck with the survivors who decide to be a ######### and ruin my game and my experience personally by dragging the killer to me because someone else saved them.
0 -
trying to kobe and trying to ######### on first hook are 2 different things
1 -
And I absolutely ######### wish that's all they'd do but they don't and it's really pissing me off
0 -
Sometimes it's hard to tell the difference when you're right next to the hook already though
1 -
How about this.
I safe them anyway and start recording. If they do any of the stuff to annoy other players i report them and eventually they never have to worry about a bad game again when they get banned.

This bothers me so much too.

Like I said in an earlier comment, if you're right there and someone ends up going for the 3rd one, or they go into struggle + miss the first check, chances are they want out
1 -
I've never had them do that. They either just disconnect right away or go get themselves killed right away.
Either way to me, the game is likely dead in the water anyway since it can be hard enough as a solo player in red ranks to survive with a full team, let alone 3 v 1. I'm going to grab what points I can from the baby and go from there. If they decide to throw a temper tantrum over it and start working with the killer and/or just being annoying, that's on them.
1 -
I honestly don't care if someone Kobes in front of me, I'm still there for the heal. I feel for the WGLF folks missing a stack, though.
Still, I'm not going to let someone go to second stage just because they try to Kobe, that's just as petty as the people the OP is talking about.
0 -
except you, and your teammates, still will for the remainder of that trial and at this point i am so sick and tired of dealing with it
0 -
god give me your ######### games i beg
1 -
I see it as Disrespecful honestly, you're neglecting your team mate points when they've crossed map just to get your arse of the hook.
Not to mention if you succeed then you've wasted everyone's time when it could have been spent on a Gen

Bbbut I need to milk them for dat altruism.
0 -
me omw to cry 🏃
0 -
But then you have an excuse to report him for griefing plus i want my altruism points on a game that will be doomed anyways with 1 less survivor.
0 -
I also want my altruism points. What I don't want is a petty frustrating twat constantly doing ######### near me when I wasn't even the one who saved them
1 -
This. Every time. It's why the struggle phase has a delay now.

They just need to remove the DC penalty and add the bots that replace people in game, the bots play better than half the teammates I get on solo anyway, they get to leave the game like they want and you get a teammate that actually will do something it's a win for both sides , I haven't been playing the game as much because of this kind of thing it seems like more and more people are just giving up in game making it a 3v1, people want to complain about SWF but this is the exact reason that some people would rather play in a SWF than deal with brainless randoms who either die immediately and give up or they hide the whole match and don't do anything at all
1 -
ALSO THAT.
Feelings, bro. Why do you have them?
0 -
If I could eliminate any and all emotions, believe me, I would have done so by now.
0 -
if only the dbd mobile devs could move to main game + implement this feature...
(and yes, this is the reason i refused to touch survivor for over a month at one point, not just solo).
1 -
I'll continue taking my chances, i think it's worth rescuing anyway. Maybe 1/3 times i rescue someone that wants to kill themselves goes to grief the game and being able to report him so he doesn't do it to more survivors in the future is good for the game. Griefing is bannable but killing yourself on hook is not since you can't prove he wasn't just trying to 4% or claim ignorance on how it works etc.

i wish it was 1 in 3 but recently it seems to be 90 in 91

Sounds like some internal strife. Hoping and praying for you, bro, it's a game. No amount of fun (or work) should have such an impact on your life that you feel really bad (or really good for that matter). Aren't these things truly trivial in this great experience and gift of life?
Enjoy what you do and be the graceful GoodBoy you are.
If it helps, go split some wood. For myself, I can always find a means of balancing the heat and cool of the day when I'm splitting rounds or pretending to be a huntress and tossing hatchets.

that comment was more aimed to real life issues as well, not just dbd, but i will admit it'd make life playing this game a lot easier if i could just not get tilted.
unironically, when this game gets too annoying i just move to playing just dance instead. im not exactly... physically fit, and most times i try doing anything sports wise i get reminded of that, but just dance seems to be the one game that doesn't make me feel awful about myself :D
i dont think being the one person in my family who's been absolutely hammered by the covid vaxx has helped much- they all got off fine, i only got the first dosage and i got bedridden with nausea and now i have a constant headache. hopefully it'll go away soon- meant to after a week

Entitlement is real.
0 -
I really hope you're not calling me entitled because I don't want some random teammate joining me on a gen and purposefully failing every skillcheck because they couldn't leave the game.
0 -
Sure I let them die on hook. Without BT is the chance really high that they run into the killer face and you don't get save unhook points. Is more of a punishment for yourself.
1 -
If they really want to leave the game so badly, they should just d/c. Often first hook suicides are at the beginning of the game where the game is already ruined and I would rather get some points for the unhook to get something of value from the useless teammate.
0 -
Reminds me when i kobed infront of 2 survs coming to unhook me. I will never stop trying.

Vaccines a personal choice. Immunity is another personal choice. Keep the sick away from the healthy and all the epidemiology jazz. I know people are sensitive to this kind of rhetoric, but I'll also add that people should be free to choose a vaccine if they want to avoid the nasty illness and it really sucks when they get a nasty illness anyways. I know people who don't have the vaccine and got sick and people who have the vaccine *and had COVID afterwards anyways*. I don't know anybody that didn't have some minor reaction to the vaccine.
Keep up the health! Nutrition, hydration, and occasional exercise, complex proteins and fats may help you recover sooner :)
Also, short breaks from this game can really help loosen up the tension between trials.
Good luck with your next dosage!

Rather a couple of bad trials getting a toxic person banned then them going around ruining 100 to 1000 of trials by suiciding constantly.
0 -
No. If they’re trying to suicide at the start of the match because they can’t handle being first to go down or just not liking the killer, I’m going to try my best to get to them. Then, out of spite, I’m going to annoy them and spam the unhook animation a few times and then rescue them.
If the killer slugs them, I’ll let them bleed out. They don’t want to care about ruining my game and wasting my time, I’ll do the same with them.

If your going to ruin the game for the remaining survivors because you wanted to have a pout about whatever upset you why are you playing the game in the first place? Take a break or go play a different game if your going to be upset in the first couples minutes of the game. It isn’t fun for the killer to 3v1 and neither is it for the survivors. Behavior isn’t holding you hostage to play their game.

I found someone who didn't read my post, at all, except for the title

In my experience most of them continue playing or wait on the hook for the killer.
Once i got an unsafe unhook with BT and once one survivor dropped all pallets on the map. But in both matches we had lost anyway.
So i will continue to rescue them, if im nearby and have no gen to finish. Free bloodpoints and they need to wait a bit more.

i wish we shared experiences please swap teammates with me
0 -
I did and I didn't like your opinion on about the topic, why should everyone else potentially lose the game over someone getting upset? Why play the game in the first place?
0 -
My teammates have their flaws, too. I hope MMR fixes that, but currently playing on Ps4 is a struggle anyway.

Remember the saying?
"The only good Survivor is a dead one."
As long as you are alive, I won't let you die in Solo Queue.
Either just DC or quit if you want to leave, but I am not letting you ######### on hook if that means saving myself from getting hit once.
You're still of use to me as a teammate until you're dead.

Well considering you were directing your comments towards me-
"If your going to ruin the game for the remaining survivors because you wanted to have a pout about whatever upset you why are you playing the game in the first place? Take a break or go play a different game if your going to be upset in the first couples minutes of the game. It isn’t fun for the killer to 3v1 and neither is it for the survivors. Behavior isn’t holding you hostage to play their game."
Note the use of the pronoun "You/Your"? Yeah, that's what that means- you are directing it towards me, as you mentioned nobody else in your comment.
And if you were to read my post, you'd find me saying to let these survivors kill themselves on hook to prevent them from sandbagging and further ruining the game, by creating a 3v2 scenario instead of a 3v1. Survivors in my lobbies do not return to normal gameplay, but instead are deadset on sandbagging the entire team. Of course I report in these instances, but it's still incredibly annoying.
So, since you directed your comment towards me, who is complaining about people who attempt to kill themselves on hook and don't manage it so take their anger out on their teammates, you're telling me to... stop getting upset within the first couple of minutes because of this happening, I guess? Which, honestly, seems like a worse opinion.

i get that they arent perfect but id take nobody than someone who drops every pallet on the map. at least in a 1v1 scenario i get interaction where i can use the resources ive been given
0 -
Bro chill it wasn't directed right at you, more or less at anyone who reads it. I was just simply giving my opinion on the topic and you took it as a personal attack.
