You know what would be a cultural reset here?

If we as survivors start blaming ourselves and teammates for loosing, not killers.

    Well didn't the Killer technically cause us to lose?

    Both sides of the playerbase are to blame for the toxic soupy culture of DBD. From ego, factionalism, grudges that have been held waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyy too long

    The playerbase as a whole needs to take a collective chill pill. No one person in particular is to blame rather the blame lies with the collective

    Well I mean yeah, this advice works for pretty much any game. Nobody wants to admit that they are trash.

    This doesn't just apply to survivors, but killers as well. Sometimes the survivors are just better.

    It's the truth.

    So many of my games as killer come down to, "How are the survivors treating each other?"

    Farm your teammates on every hook? Easy 4k for me. Then everyone yells that I camped or tunneled. Well, your teammates made that choice, sorry.

    Sometimes, if I'm killed, it's because the other three survivors don't play the way I expect, which may either be them acting moronic, or me just being oblivious to what the main focus of eaxh is doing.

    Other times, I look at how I played. See where the mess-up was and learn from it. That's the only time I feel truely salty, and that's against my own ineptitude. I just pledge to "git gud" and carry on.

    Sometimes it's the Killer for either playing better than me, or some game glitch.

    Whichever way you toss it, ultimately each game is different, and the end result varies a lot, depending on all variables. I can only change my way of playing. It's really not a good expenditure of energy to only focus on faults outside of my power.

    As with anything, you can't force others to play exactly as you want, but you can always learn from your mistakes. The game is a lot less stressful with that in mind, I think.

    Depends on situation but I have no problem blaming my own play (since usually it's mistake I made) or the play of other survivors instead of the killer. I only blame killer if they tunnel me off hook and mori me at start of match or camp me (before dedicated servers lagswitch was also a reason) because aside from "don't get caught" can't do anything about those.

    No matter what the reason though I don't message people complaining. Think that's the ultimate issue, people being sore winners/losers and finding the need to just make others feel like crap or complain after the match in messages/end game chat. Just get over it and move onto the next match.
