    The developers?  Nothing.  It's a dev intended and encouraged strategy.  It's not generally a highly rewarding strategy though, except when overly alturistic survivors reward it.

    The poor game balance is to blame.

    Although, this Doc is probably having a bad day or is just bad.

    In the situation on the screen, two guys are dead, you on a hook. If killer camps your teammate has 2 full minutes to look for the hatch when killer camps you. just be mate. steal the killer 2 minutes and spend them to your team. 2 Mins are three gens in a perfect situation (other three alive, everyone on a gen)

    I second most of what's said above: be a good teammate, don't try to unhook yourself and don't go die - killer will suffer for the loooong time wasted. In fact, if your teammates are good enough, you may still be saved, preferably with Borrowed Time, and the loser ends up with zero kills and a pip down.
    Gotta say though, 99% of killers don't camp, except when gates are powered/open, with one on the hook and three alive and well, in which case camping is often the prudent thing to do.

    How the [BAD WORD] did a "camper" kill 2 survivors before you and you only did 4 gens only?

    I smell ######### tho

    Simple.

    Survivor 1 is hooked, survivor 2 and 3 hover around the hook while survivor 4 does gens.

    Survivor 2 is hooked, survivor 3 hovers around the hook while survivor 4 does gens.

    Survivor 3 is hooked, survivor 4 walks around the map looking for hatch.

    Survivor 3 dies on the hook, and the only survivor who did the correct thing to counter camping escapes through the hatch.

    But then clearly camping worked or am i tripping?

    Also aint that the survivor's fault as well?.

    Camping works because the survivors choose to reward it.

    I'm assuming based on your amount of post you have that you're fairly new to the forums.
    This has been discussed a number of times and the bottom line is the Dev have confirmed this is part of the game and they have no plans so far to change it.

    I like camping as The Pig
    As of the SAW Movies, aren't I entitled to do that?
    I break into people's houses and sedate them
    So why not treat you as bait and AMBUSH your knight in shimmering armor?

    It makes me feel gggGGGREAT!

    Hi guys i'm playing this game for a while now and want to explain something to crying survivors ( sorry about my english though ). 

    My main killer is the TRAPPER not the IDIOT. To stay close to hanged survivor is part of a fair strategy. I personally never face camp. I'm hooking a dude or a chick, set my traps then hide near the hook ( but not too much for survivors get a chance to unhook see? I'm not a d**k ) it's called a TRAP using BAIT. If survivors are smart enough they can unhook their friend if they are stupid they get caught. That's the game.

    Killer primary goal is to kill survivors. And confirm that kill by staying not far to the hook is a strategy. If survivors don't like to die just don't get caught or play a smarter way. Or maybe this game is not for you. 

    And too me real cancer in this game are survivors body blocking hook and tea bagging when doors are opens. They should add a way to punish them like to can grab them or to block the escape when killer enter the exit area. There is 2 exit so killer cannot block both letting well playing survivors to leave. This idea is maybe not perfect but with some adjustments it could be a great way to punish trolls. 

    Once again sorry about my english, and have a good slaughter party anyway

    wait for your teammate to start tea-bagging and *edit: commit self death, so that he can get the hatch.

    camping in general ? Not a problem since it's easily countered by doing gens.

    Nothing. It gives all other survivors an advantage, and you can just stare back and chill there for 2 mins making the killer waste his time before realising that camping was a big mistake.

    Alternatively, it's also not a problem because two survivors (if they're available) can distract + manage to get you off. So, it's just a waiting game and it was never a problem, just annoying.
