Ever just have a bad day of games? Tilt take over

Today started really well for me...got a 3K as Plague with an actual match. Felt I played pretty solid with 30k BPs....

And then it went 100% to ######### :/ I know I'm not some great DBD Player, but I usually have more good games than bad...but today just really bummed me out. Had a ritual to do Wraith and since he's only lvl 3 he's essentially just M1/R2 with nothing else. Only got a 1k, had a spamming teabagger that annoyed me... Whatever 20k BPs plus my Ritual...moved on to practice Plague and started out alright and went to the dumps...I think just a 1K and then a 0k (didn't want to tunnel or camp) had trouble balancing whom to go after ( which is all on me.


Decided to try one last time with my Doctor whom I've done really well on....got Lerys which normally I do well on...I kept getting looped and turned around because of everything going off and lost track of Players because they ran thru each other's tracks and again I just got bummed out.


This seems to happen once in awhile but it ends up affecting me badly when I do this badly so often... Bit TMI and people won't care because Im venting...but I suffer from BPD amd stuff like multiple losses just ends up making me hate myself and kinda get depressed/stressed out.

Really don't want the next few days to do this, otherwise I'll have to take a break from the game...which I don't want to do

    Of course. Everyone has a run of bad matches once in a while. On both killer and survivor side. We're only human.

    Thanks :[ I know it's like the most obvious thing to know what to do but hearing others say it just kinds makes it more real (trust me..my mind can be a terrible place to be in)

    I just really loathe myself for ending on sour notes and the mistakes feel twice as bad. I know it's just a game and someone has to win/lose and a whole host of reasons...but it just all comes back to me and with Killer a couple mistakes will cost you everything.

    I never like having to force myself to stop playing (it's why I think I'm so easily addicted to MMOs...) and with how much traction you lose with grinding BPs to keep going makes that hill bigger.

    I really appreciate you taking the time to respond and be compassionate with me here. Letting go of mistakes (once enough have happened/built up) is newr impossible. I'm def done today unless my GF and I can play together...but if tomorrow winds up like today, its gonna have to be a mini break

    Hello, I only wanted to say that you're doing a great job. I know how you feel, having BPD and anxiety too the game may look more frustating to us but let me tell you something: thanks to you, people were able to experience fun and judging your score, you didn't tunnel or camp which is really respectful for that you are trying to improve in gameplays and giving chances to survivors to actually survive.

    Don't be too harsh on yourself, since every mistake you did is a experience to grown gameplaywise and there's no faster and better way to learn than to actually experience this.

    Some trials, you'll see, after a good rewind/review you'll notice there were nothing you could do even if you could change some actions. That's okay too, we are not meant to win every game but if its bothering you so much, I would hightly recomended to change roles or change the game for some time.

    But don't let this get you. You provided a good game and even though the survivors don't say it (since is easier to be toxic than to actually knowledge the effort to play "nice"), they surely felt it. If anything, keep on. Should the name of the killer start showing to survivors, you'll know that they'll actually compete to be in tour lobby.

    Sorry for the long text and bad english and hava a nice day.

    I completely agree with @Arabytes . I play like you do as well, and even if i get a 1k or 0k i consider it a win if all players in the trial got over 15.000 bloodpoints.. and as a survivor (and killer) those games Can be extremely fun.

    If a killer doesnt tunnel or Camp then the match Will be awesome for me, no matter if i Survive or not :) (i play solo)

    People are too focused on pipping or 4k’ing these days, that they forget to have fun sometimes.. if all players got a chance for many bloodpoints, i consider it a win :)

    Been there. Had a Freddy daily to do. All I needed was two sacrifices. Took me 8 games.

    Oh come on my little piggy, don't get down, Sometimes i get tilted at this game as well, but sometimes i go and take a break and try to think about something else. This game and it's community? Is #########. we all know that, there is nothing good that comes out of this game. Salt, Salt, Salt is all that you get, and if anything sometimes you get falsely reported and some mod believes that reporter because they didn't even bother to listen to your side (Heard from others by the way)

    Now, some days you'll have great games, where you get a 4k or you manage to run the killer for most of the game, and sometimes, you'll get some ######### matches, But don't let that get you down, if you need to turn it off and unwind then feel free to do so, go outside, get some sun on your skin, don't stoop down to these people.

    Besides, i didn't spend the past couple of months obsessing over you, so you better put that mask back on, sharpen that blade, and show them what's up.

    We all have bad matches.. Especially solo survivors lol..

    Besides.. the game would get boring fast if you destroyed the other side every game imo
