I understand why killers are camping/tunneling

Seriously guys... Have some respect to the others...

I play dbd since 2018, I'm a survivor main at red ranks, I play for fun, with fun perks, I'm not into win every game or play for humiliating the killer.

I know how to run well in the chase, I don't do 360 at all because of rp...

I start playing killer since 2020, it has been my worst experience at a game, the concept is really fun, chase survivor, but when you re a baby killer, you can't do anything because of survivor players who play just to humiliate the killer with 360 and other trash method which should not exist in this game.

You want more fun? Play at red ranks and don't humiliate baby killers pls. Don't let them win but srsly... Where is the fun for you? Is it because you're just too bad to play survivor at red ranks?

    Coming from someone who has reached red on both sides, baby killers aren't really a huge thing. It's more average team mates that are equal to the killer, if you find any killer above average, they'll get a 3k or a 4k, but very rarely in red ranks have I seen no kills (I don't play swf)

    Yes but what am I supposed to do? I'm a yellow/green rank killer and I faced very often red ranks and swf, or just toxic players.

    Many survivors are complaining about the time to find a game, but then they do everything to make rquit a baby killer.

    If we want more killer players for less time to find a game, we should remove toxic method on both sides.

    360ing is not a problem at all. I’m an average/bad killer and if you pay attention you can almost always hit them.

    The problem is that the Devs go into designing maps with the mentality of making sure that survivors have chance after chance after chance to get away or keep the killer at bay.

    Killers that aren’t top tier don’t really have much of a chance/choice. Chase the survivor going towards that loop, which just leads to another loop, which leads further from the gens that are being worked on? Keep pressure on gens while survivors hide and keep out of line of sight?

    Heck, these days, when I get a bleeding survivor at the start of a match that repeatedly vaults to get my attention, I just ignore them because I know it’s just going to waste my time. You know what happens then? They run up to me and t-bag or flashlight click and DC when they understand that I’m not taking the bait.

    So if Killers damned if they take the bait or damned if they don’t.


    ****Just to clarify: I am not saying Devs don’t care about Killers, I’m just saying that Survivors are prioritized. Perhaps it’s just the nature of the game and that it would be impossible to ever truly balance the game.

    It's not about learning, it's sad to say that but when I'm tunneling I win pretty easy. And I have no mercy for toxic survivors.

    But it is about learning. You stated in your OP you began in 2020. So, under a month of playing killer for the first time. And what? You expected to be amazing because you main survivor? Tunneling is of course a easy win. You literally move 5 feet from a hook to redown a survivor. Playing killer takes more than just hunting down a easy target. Try actually playing normally. Use mindgames, test builds, use killer powers to an advantage. Yes, matchmaking is an absolute joke, and there's no denying that many high ranks will plow you down, but you can still enjoy the game regardless.

    I can't learn anything when I tried to play normally and an army of claudettes run around my feets...

    I find most times the Killer isn't even Camping or Tunneling. Playing with my friends they often go "Ugh the Killer is tunneling me", and then I have to mention something like "No they are not, you just have been running the same way he's been chasing another survivor", or "No they are not, they chased someone else, but then found you out positioned", or "No they're not. Survivor unhooked you unsafely, so he is simply attacking the weaker and most out positioned target".

    Also when I play Killer I see survivors performing plays that ends up their allies getting the punishment, then I get called a tunneler in the end game chat, when they should be accusing their team mate for baiting me to them.

    As far as Camping, there are many things that effect terror radius, and the killer isn't going to leave a hook when the Survivors are not working on gens / he finds survivors bum rushing the hook.

    I agree with you Clown, sometimes survivors are just dumb lol

    But when I faced them I let them escape and chase another one because of my laughing and my pity for them.

    Im just camping/tunneling when the army of claudettes ran around my feets and try to humiliate me.

    If you wanna have a safe hit on a 360 guy, turn with him.

    It's not something very skillfull if a survivor did this. If he reaches 90 on the left or right side (depending where he starts) you can almost everytime hit them with a fast hit.

    If a survivor does a 360 or not, you see almost always already before, because many of those guys start doing it already before you try to hit them the first time.

    Also it is a good tip to only hit a survivor if you already run into him, or you know that you will definitely hit him with bloodlust.

    Try to avoid, to hit them to soon, because then you are often still too far away, or you give them too many time to react on your attack.

    Sorry but I don't believe any of your story chances are you're a purple survivor at best and figured you would give killer a shot started to lose so broke out cheap camp strats and started feeling better :/ tunneling is fine if the survivors didn't bring borrowed time or proper save without it then that's on them but camping no camping should never be used seriously other than if someone is a tbagging jack off just trying to be rude.

    I just had a match where there was a hook just outside a Gen, and the survivors just kept exchanging hook for me kicking the gen adjacent to it with pop, till one of them died. After a short time the Claud (the only good player on the team, pulled off an amazing Unbreakable save - which could of won them the game if the other 2 weren't so brain dead) had finished 3 gens on the other side of the map, so I ended up in a very strong 3 gen situation with all gens next to each other, and the person on hook next to them as well. Slugged the other survivor, and literally just had to stand there since Surveillance was showing me if they ever touched the other 2 gens.

    Got called a camper and tunneler, but if the Survivors played smart at all, they wouldn't have three gen'd themselves in such a poor scenario.

    I camp or tunnel when survivors are toxic or I patrol the area when I know there's a survivor nearby

    I can't take Survivor mains seriously that literally play Killer for 2 games and find it too hard.

    I play Killer at Rank 1 since 2016, haven't used Ruin in at least a year, and I find that only the super tryhard SWF groups are a real challenge as otherwise it is just too easy.

    Also as a new killer, it is hard to ignore toxic behavior. I don't include flashlight saves, BT, DH, or DS with toxic. That's a perk and not toxic, but when you have survivors twirling in a circle in front of your face, get swarmed by a team, clicked by a flashlights, and other annoying things I try and take a step back and think. Okay, everyone is here. No one is doing gens. I'm about to bust all these fools in the head. I've taken down people at the exit gate because they wanted to BM rather than leave. Use their toxicity to take them down. They're going to spam crouch, flashlight click, twirl in a circle. Just like a killer get's so enraged they get tunnel vision, a survivor can get so cocky they forget the next loop. Another thing I have learned is ignore the cocky one that can loop. When you get his friends who are doing gens while you're distracted he/she will come to you.

    Does it need to be understood?

    It's a part of the game. Learn to deal with it.

    When I play survivor I have no problem with it because I know how to counter it. So if it's part of the game as killer, and not a toxic method, should I be more and more sadic as killer? 😈

    I reached red ranks a year ago. I havent played killer in like 8 months and I started to come back. I'm back down to rank 18 and Im being paired with purple and red ranks half the time. It's not a huge deal to me cause I've been there before but if I was a new killer. I wouldn't be playing this game when I saw how bad this MM is.

    When I SWF there's even some matches where we weren't trying to be dicks, we were just playing to the best of our ability. We looped the killer for long periods of time, finish the gens and everyone escaped. Only to find out the killer had like 5 hours into the game. I feel bad when that happens. We tend to apologize to the killer because MM should have never paired him against people with 1k hours.
