Holding survivors in matches in 2023. Really Behavior?
This person here held me in the game because I was the last surviving survivor. I looped him for about 5 minutes before he knocked me down. He left me on the ground until the last second and then picked me up and held me in his arms. Why does this company allow this to happen in 2023? There are several games of this style that have found incredibly good solutions to this issue, and this game has been experiencing basic problems like this for years! And the worst part is that nothing happens to these people ruining the game! DBD is almost dying and the Devs haven't realized it yet.
Depressing!

Naming and shaming is against the forum rules, please censor that player's name or this thread is gonna be removed.

Contrary to the rules was the filth he did to me. 😡

I mean nothing you described is against the rules of the game. It sounds really douchey what he did, yeah, but it isn't against the rules. Plus what are you even trying to do here? Linking his steam account? Are you trying to stir up a hate mob to go over and give this guy flak? That's not going to solve anything and is one of the reasons naming and shaming is against the rules.

"I understand your intention, but there is a repost on the Behavor website and they have a rule against trapping players in the game, which is illegal! I deleted it as per your suggestion because I remember their reporting system on their website. My intention was to bring it to the attention of the Devs so that the offender can be punished and to try and clean up the toxic community we have nowadays in DBD.

Yeah it suck.
So what?
It just like t-bag, just ignore it.

It sucks that happened, but honestly best thing is just shake it off and move on. These sorts of players are a minority, but actually why I think a limited block list would be handy (like a limit of 6 people or something, to avoid abusing it). It's bad manners but ultimately it's just a game. Don't let them live rent free in your head.

Go take a piss or get a cup of water while it happens. Come back and its like magic. IT NEVER HAPPENED!!!!!!

You always have an option to bleed out eventually so you can still have the game ended. As last survivor you can also force end game collapse and eventually die from it. Sure it will take more time and not much of the fun but as many said, take it like a champ and move on to the next game.

I cant understand why the devs cant allow a survivor to bleed out instantly after a certain time has passed on the floor.
Seriously, like 99% of situations where a surv has been on the floor for 2 min it is either for griefing or in a slug game you are very likely to die anyway.
Adding an option to die after 90-120 sec wouldnt hurt anyone.

I agree, and it doesn't matter if he was toxic or not. The problem is that he did something that goes against the rules. It's not about slugging, but about being stuck in the game. I opened a ticket on the company's website with his SteamID and all the photos. I hope he is punished, and they finally take some action about this and some of the game's problems. There are several new games in the scene that copy DBD and have already solved various problems that DBD hasn't resolved in six years, such as slugging and camping. You get up after 45 seconds on the ground, and if you camp too close, it doesn't count towards the death time.

How is this situation violating any official rules?
3 -
You looped him for 5 minutes and your team mates managed to do only 3 gens?
3 -
They should do something about it, but they are not going to. Their stance is that unless the only possible way for the game to end would be server collapse, you aren't really holding a player hostage (examples: body blocking a survivor into a location and just not moving).
I've always found it shocking that they let it slide, but they do. As others have suggested, the only real recourse is alt-tab or go do something else.

Rude behaviour but not bannable. You can always try to report it if you feel that way.
Well done for the extended loop, though!

All your doing is wasting the time of someone in the reporting center and keeping them away from real reports. Nothing you said is holding the game hostage.
He slugged you and refused to pick you up.....Not holding the game hostage as you will die from Bleedout
They then picks you up before you bleed out and dont take you to a hook.....not Holding the game hostage as you CAN wiggle free.
Even if he won't knock you down after you break free that's not holding the game hostage as you can just do gens.....
As someone said there are few things considered holding the game hostage.......pinning a survivor in a corner for a extended period of time and refusing to move is one...... survivors refusing to do gens especially at a 3-gen and just locker hoping to avoid afk crows is considered holding the game hostage.......there are a few others but I can't think of them off hand.

Are you new around here?
2 -
Ah yes, one of the time I wish they had a button to speed up the bleed-out timer
For what little consolation, It may not be considered "holding the game hostage" but it is unsportsmanlike behavior and that you can report for in-game. Though, I'm fairly certain those reports get forwarded to an empty office somewhere in eastern Antarctica. I've never heard of anyone getting banned for the things that would fall under that category.

only its not. bleeding out, you die after 4 minutes, even if he picks you up then, you can wiggle free, and you die when he downs you again. Thats not holding the game captive, no matter how much you didnt like it.

Hopefully new update let us bleed out or vote out to leave.

Sounds about right to me

I like how this has become so commonplace people are like “yeah they can literally take away 5 minutes of your time that you can’t do anything about, but just shake it off, it’s not like it’s against the rules”
Part of the problem LMAO

Then you're fine with killers being removed from the match for 4 minutes by the survivors whenever they decide, I assume?
0 -
And what has that to do with holding the game hostage? Right, nothing at all.
Also, survivors are not removed from the match for 4 minutes because the killer chose. The killer has to find you, down you, and then other survivors have to be dead or not care about picking you up.
That is far away from "the killer being removed form the match for 4 minutes whenever the survivors decide.
So, since this are totally different things, why do you assume i would be fine with it?
3 -
And let me guess,if killer protect the 3 gens, the gens will auto repaird after 3 minutes?
that's not a fix, its called "we need bot killer".

No, because killers are the 1 in a 1v4.

I was the last man standing....dã

That's the problem with people, they accept things too easily in any way.

Because we already have an epidemic of people DCing and/or killing themselves on the hook to avoid the DC. We don't need more ways for survivors to rage quit out of the match and screw over their teammates.
1 -
And i would strongly disagree to a instant bleed out the moment you are downed, but after 90-120sec on the floor i believe we are way past the point were dying could be considered rage quitting.
Seriously, like 95% of matches where i have been slugged for half my bleed bar are the killer griefing me because they know i cant do anything for 4 minutes in that situation.
It's stupid to believe that after almost 7 years of dbd nothing can be done to address this.
2 -
What i never understood is why people dislike being slugged. While slugged you can still crawl around at least. On the hook you can do nothing but wait for your team.
0 -
Normal slugging as the killer leaves me on the floor to go for another surv like, i have no problem.
What i dislike is when the killer leaves you purposely on the ground to bleed out for 4 min when the game is already over.

Mate, nothing he did was against the rules. You should read up and learn what is actually allowed and what's forbidden before raising a complaint. All you're doing is wasting time that could be spent on legit complaints.
