Camping and tunneling protest

    Ill admit Ill camp the moment survivors start being toxic. Since the recent mmr and rank/grade rework its "WELCOME TO DEAD BY DAYLIGHT, WHERE MMR IS HIDDEN AND GRADES DON'T MATTER".


    As a rule i dont camp or tunneler generally speaking. All of you complaining about it right now- sure it is a problem- but almost all of you complaining about it are really just stuck in a low mmr point blank. Unless your killer that is tunneling/camping is at OTZ level of killer, that strategy isn't going to work unless you feed it.

    1.) yes gens are taking longer. But i ALWAYS as both killer and survivor find them doing totems, crouching in corners, i run past chests people opened, TWO totems is nearly the same amount of time added to the gen time. gens take 50 seconds longer now. totems are what, i think 20 seconds? I never ran pentimento before this patch, because i dont run hexes, and i stupidly assumed since I didn't waste time on dull totems as survivor, that pentimento would never work. after all if i dont have hexes for survivors to break how would i get to run pentimento? Lo and behold all my killer mains out there running it finally convinced me. its cracked. i still dont run hexes. i got FOUR stacks in my last match with it just off of broken dull totems. seriously thats an entire gen lmao.

    2.) i just play for fun. i dont care if i win. ill go for the 4k cuz thats my goal but i dont feel the need to sweat for it. but if survivors want to bm an teabag and be toxic, then yes ill be petty, be toxic back and camp and tunnel them. they want to abuse the killer but can't take their own medicine and thats always been a problem and everyone knows it. every killer knows it and i doubt many if any will disagree with me, and every single survivor knows it and if they disagree they are lying to themselves. I'm not saying all survivors, but a lot.

    3.) i will 100% admit im camping and tunneling more now. But again i only do it because of people being toxic. and frankly i dont blame the other killers for doing it regardless of the toxicity. six years this game has been out and people like Demi and Ayrun and Jrm and noob3 - mind you I do admit they are amazing players- uploading videos "HAHA I HOLED THE KILLER. HAHA LETS HEADON BULLY HIM. HAHA LOOK WE BLINDED THE KILLER 76 TIMES". the number of players i have since the patch being toxic to me is waaaaay higher than before, and in THOSE games specifically I match their energy. And sadly the majority of players are not jrm, ayrun, demi, etc. (note sometimes i get these guys mixed up because i watch more killer main videos, so if one of them is not toxic and i got confused my appologies.) but the point stands

    toxic survivors have been bullying killers for years. and now killers are paying them back ten fold. period. end of discussion. survivors are getting camped and tunneled and cant teabag and macro flashlight clicks anymore and they cant stand being on the other side of it, so frankly i do NOT mind. im playing more solo q than ever and loving the challenge.


    everyone can complain about the meta all they want. perk changes, gen times, all of it. but at the end of the day people like the OP are the problem

    One side acts like trash so the other acts like trash

    i keep having a bad game here and there and carry the energy over in to the next one, and have had to issue a few appologies recently because of it.


    You guys read the dredges lore? this community is the dredges lore and the game is the dredge. Too many angry toxic people fueling each other. Love that cheeky dev description "a monster formed by the thoughts of a once vibrant community"

    Well, i disagree with you. I understand where you come from, but i dont share your approach.

    I belive, if somehting is op, it doesnt matter how often it accured in a game, it shouldn´t be there. Your approach seem to be, as long as it doesnt happen too often, it doesnt matter how op it is. Well, everyone has his own opinion.

    But people taking killer and use this tactics is actually good if you follow my approach, because you get way more data on that tactics, and you can see how often they result in a 4k or any k. So you can figure out faster if something needs to be done about this tactics.

    I see your viewpoint, and whilst I don't agree it is clear we both want what's best for the game, or at least have best wishes that it needs to be better, even if our approaches differ.

    There is the point of increasing the frequency of a situation to highlight it, and I understand that. My view isn't as you put it exactly, but it's clear how you can come to such a conclusion as there are points which add to that. But my thoughts are that currently it's already on the increase, so if that increase is being noted then the devs don't need additional people pointing out what already is happening. The action will just upset more people and it's not how the person wants to play anyway.

    So, as you say, we agree to disagree, but I appreciate your view a little more and thank you for being decent. Take it easy!
