Not to be an entitled survivor, but killers, please leave the random survivor out.

This is the 5th match in a row I get camped and tunneled immediately because my team of what seems to be a 3 man SWF keep using meta perks and tagging with clickers just because I'm the worst in chase. I have 3 mostly worthless perks and prove thyself for bloodpoints, no items, and the default cosmetics. It's very easy to spot me from SWF, so go camp one of them instead.

    Also, I don't want to be let alive for no reason, but when the tunneling is for the sake of BM, not game advantage, BM the toxic ones who aren't even doing gens for the sake of BM'ing

    Sadly true, but damn, it always does leave a bitter taste, specially when the killers makes a kebab out of me

    Sadly to hear it, but 2-3 man SWF group consider others as expendable resources.

    And for a Killer you are just another unfortunate and "easy" victim. They can be enraged by clicky-clicky, binds and pallet stuns. So when SWF is turning killer into bloodthirsty bull who jumps on anything he can get... guess who's wearing a "red shirt"?

    Just calm down, try to stay far from swf and the killer, even if it means NOT contributing to the first generator you all find from the start.

    Also try to "dodge" lobby when you can predict uncomfortable gameplay. Queue time goes up, but it's better to leave the lobby.

    If your the worst in chase then the killer focusing you is very smart.

    I'm sorry for you but you got to watch some videos and learn how to loop better. Once you get better at that then the game becomes much easier.

    If you don't have it already then get Windows Of Opportunity (shows pallets and windows). If you want other perks to help you get better in chases then use Spine Chill + Resilience (faster vaulting) till you unlock more perks. Try and get perks like Dead Hard/Sprint Burst/Iron Will later on. These are all excellent chase perks.

    @CashelP14

    Watching videos is good, but muscular memory is better. And to get better he need to practice.


    @Shenlong1904

    And as perks to unlock from the beginning... Sprint Burst, Iron Will, Empathy, Plunderer's Instinct make a good setup.

    Sprint Burst can be really beneficial when Killer choses target, simply running in opposite direction as the other survivor with flashlight went can save you multiple times.

    Iron Will negate sounds you make when injured so even wounded you can try to hide and wait out. With all the clicky-clicky that's doable.

    Empathy is one of the best aura readings, you know where to apply heal, when someone is wounded. And most importantly - it shows where the killer WAS. Every time someone show up via Empathy - guess, that's Killers work and he is close.

    Why Plunderer's Instinct? Because you don't waste time finding the chest, get better items (don't save up, bring them every trial, you are going to find more). Also you will know where the basement is (chest bellow ground) and was it looted or not.

    SWF gets a lot of information, so you should too.

    It's less "I'm bad at chase" And more "my teammates all have 6K hours and are God loopers"

    I'm not the best at chase, but I wasn't being downed in less than a minute.

    And yeah, it is smart of the killer even if it feels horrible to be the victim

    Oof. I feel bad cuz everyone here is thinking I'm new to the game. I already have 1K hours and EVERY survivor perk unlocked on survivor. It's just I was messing around trying to get the most bloodpoints. I had deliverance, for the people, prove thyself and WGLF.

    Sorry for that.

    Guess phrase "I have 3 mostly worthless perks and prove thyself for bloodpoints, no items, and the default cosmetics" was confusing.

    Having all the perks unlocked is good, but once you find you setup, about 10 of them can be used. Rest are bloodpoint sink.

    But do try Sprint Burst, Iron Will, Empathy and something for the 4th slot. Minimum effort but works good.

    Yeah, I just avoid most meta perks cuz they are unfun. But in the current meta, if you don't have meta perks on either side, you don't get to play the game

    "Killers, please fix this problem caused by us survivors."

    We really can't, there are some games where I know what's going on, but in lots of them things are happening so fast I'm just attacking everyone I encounter. Sometimes we know when a survivor is being ######### on by the others, but most the time we're not seeing enough to understand.

    When it comes down to it, you're supposed to be punished for a bad team, that's how it works in every game in the world. Teamwork means working together.

    But we're not the ones that make solo q so awful, we constantly ######### about the same players you're bitching about. We're not going to let your team win because they play obnoxiously, that would just encourage them.

    Don't complain to us, complain to SWFs or the devs.

    The solution: Killers and solo qs should get a 25% BP bonus when a SWF is involved.
