Remove 4 man swf

4 man swf are annoying: at least 50% of the time, they all are a bunch of guys using voice chat and giving away almost everything about the killer, t-bag, use their crutch perks, trash-talking the killer, etc. There communications allow them to know where totems are, where there friends are if the killer has a perk like "the third seal", they can always know what their teammates are doing, so they are almost twice as efficient as normal survivors, and then cry at the killer if he gives them a well deserved tunnel.

So, they can be removed, right? "Yea but we need swf otherwise the game will die". I never said remove swf: keep 2-3 man swf, but remove 4 man swf. 4 man swf are not even 10% of all games! And most of them would not leave the game: 2 friends to play with is more than enough to have fun. And the few players we would lose would be the bullies that cannot accept that they cannot stop t-bagging without knowing for sure they will get rescued when they will finally get cough by that rank 20 killer they got because of a smurf in their team, after bullying him for 5 gens. Those players that would join the game because 4 man swf are gone would largely compensate for all the t-bag smurfs that would leave the game.

    That's a really pointless idea, and I highly doubt they'd ever do that. As strong as 4 Man's are, to get rid of them would be equal to getting rid of SWF altogether. Why would only getting to play with 1 or 2 friends be better than 3? Honestly, a good 2/3 man is just as strong as a 4 man.

    You sound like you had some bad games.

    So you want only 4 man swf removed, like you said a minority? How do you know most of them wouldnt leave? How do you know how many friends you need to have fun? How do you know that only the bullies will leave? So many questions ...

    Honestly, 4 man swf isnt even that big of a deal. Most of them are just people casually playing with each other. There are rare death squads that will grind you into dust... sure.

    But truth being a lot of 4 man swf are either too altruistic or semi coordinated.

    As for Teabaggers and toxic survivors... that can be anyone. If you're getting upset over teabagging and clicky clicky you're falling into a survivor minigame so you make more mistakes.

    I sincerely doubt anyone will run perks like third seal pre game lobby if they know they are facing a swf and will just swap perks around. (Since apparently everyone can tell when they are facing SWF right?)

    Also as for the rank 20 killer vs 1 smurf and the rest not is impossible. You're thinking of matchmaking from a long time ago or you are exaggerating. They're either all smurfs vs a rank 20 killer or not.

    You must not play with your with friends. What a way to sell the game.
