Im so tired of SWF

Some matches I play they even spare the gen time for me to get hooks, as a killer I consider that an insult. Either gen rush and leave, don't tease like that. Devs should do something, smh!

    I'm sympathetic, genuinely, but what makes this a SWF problem? How do you know that the survivors you're facing are in a party together?

    Coordination, synchonization when Im chasing them, about 60% of the time I play solo survivors so I know who are solo and who are with their groups when I play on the killer side.

    You mean you know the people, or you know the signs? Because coordination and syncronisation are things you can get fairly easily between four good solo players - no one ought to know that better than someone who plays solo 60% of the time.

    just the signs and sometimes I got in a lobby with few names I know before. But that's not the point, It's just people who play solo survivor well will know whether they're swf or not instantly when they play killer. The matches that I play as solo survivors are pretty much different than those of swf in my killer lobby.

    I'm a killer 10, just had a match against all red rank 2 survivors. They were all friends. Was Clown on Badham. The gens were pinging like a pinball machine. Not fun. Great match-making as always.

    Yeah, SWFs can be a major thorn in the side. But then there's those sweet, sweet moments when you obliterate them. Just happened to me as doctor, and they weren't even mad. A couple GG's got exchanged and they were on their way, but a lot of 4 person SWFs are toxic and just not fun to play against

    I dont think it would have been any different (or only slightly) vs 4 Solos. You are playing the weakest Killer in the game on an okish Map for him, vs people who are 8 Ranks higher than you.

    Haha you said it.

    Just had a match as rank 10 Clown and overcome a bunch of 4-5 swf. It was very tough but Surveillance sealed it. 4k merciless. No mori or NOED. It was great.

    I think the worst are the infinite loops enhanced by Resilience and Spine Chill perk that makes vaulting speeds high.

    Either you do a high level mindgaming or give up the chase to search for less talented survivors.

    I usually avoid to DC but sometimes the level of frustration is too high.

    Being the weakest killer is a matter of opinion. The next game I went against ranks 4-5 swf and got a 5k merciless with Clown, in Yamaoka. It was a tough match, very close. Usually on a well-balanced match I get respectable results with Clown.

    SWF is an issue. If a team constantly play together, they have well-tested strategies and perk builds that compliment each other. Not to mention the chat element. I usually find typical SWF teams to be pretty abhorrent.

    Regards to the ranks, match-making is obviously horrendous at the moment and making playing killer very irritating on the whole.
