Whats the point in playing by survivor rules.

You play by survivor rules? Lol

In all seriousness, play however you want. It's not about what's nice, it's about what gets you the W.

With that being said, tunneling and camping aren't effective strategies once the survivors know what you're up to/ are loaded out to deal with that, and they adjust accordingly.

Did you quote the wrong comment?

In case you didn't, let me tell you. I'm killer that plays fairly, meaning no camping and tunnelling. I aim to get 12 hooks every game.However, sometimes camping and tunnelling is not camping and tunnelling.

For instance, some survivors jump on a gen right after being unhooked. You can't blame me for smacking, slugging or hooking you again because i can't just stand there watching you doing your objective. IMO these instance are extremely fair to both side. You decide to be greedy, so you can't blame me for it. But usually survivors can get away from their greed because of 2nd chance perks... what can i do..?

Its already 4 vs 1. It is fair. It is not against the rules. Survivors just cant handle losing. Ive been on that hook. Nose to nose with a killer in less than 60 seconds. It sucks. LOL. But the definition of fair is "In accordance with the rules or standards, legitimate." Look it up. So until the people that made the game & run the show say otherwise, it IS fair.

none. A killer can't win 12 chases, you have to camp or tunnel at key moments, if you play how survivors want (chase, hook, chase other survivor saw with bbq, repeat...) you will hardly 4k, unless you're facing a bad team.

There's a difference between "playing by the rules" as so many other killers put it, and understanding the survivor situation, playing towards the emblem system because the HUNT is better than the kill, getting more emblems because this playstyle is what the emblem system wants, playing killers and tactics to support this and slow down the game in other ways and doing well without infuriating everyone else.

There are no "Rules" from survivors. It is simply them saying "Can you NOT prevent me from playing the video game, please and thank you?"

They WERE playing. Until they got caught.

This right here. If you only play killer you'll never understand survivors. And if you only player survivor you'll never understand killers. It's simply trying to allow everyone a chance to enjoy a match.

You know I'm a pretty good killer, a way better killer than survivor actually, but i survive nearly every game, the games i don't are normally when im getting tunneled or even more common lately, moried. So as a mediocre, lets even say above average survivor, I will probably escape if you play by da rulez.

But I get it all the killers are just bad, they need to learn to get better and get a PhD in killing survivors but again...im not really that great ay survivor. I don't even really put too much effort in most of the time.

I just think its kind of funny that in this partisan war a lot of "survivor mains" (aka people who play half the game) will tell killers to play by Da Rulez and spend a few 100 hours learning the ins and out of killer while they play in SFW all meta perks. I honestly attribute a ton of my success to spinechill and DH alone. As killer there's no perks that i feel carry me and it took me wayyy longer to git gud at killer than it did with survivor.

Not trying to come at you just food for thought.

I don’t “play by the survivor rule book”, whatever that means, but it’s more fun to play aggressive and pressure everyone than it is to camp (yawn).

I’m not sure why so many killers are obsessed with the “survivor rule book”. No one’s gonna come and take your PC/console away if you tunnel someone. It’s not bannable to play in a way survivors don’t like so you’re free to do as you please, and they’re free to have an opinion. Sometimes their opinion is dumb and sometimes it’s not. It’s just a game so don’t take it so seriously.

Then you're doing something wrong. Not tunneling can give a lot of pressure, especially if you make it not clear that you're not tunneling.

Did I say it wasn't?

Flashlighting at pallets, teabagging at gates and abusing the power of something like DS annoys the hell out of me too and I call it out there. But, last time I checked this is not a thread about that.

I'd like you to explain how. I can only think of a handful of killers that can get away with not slugging, camping, or tunneling against meta survivors at red ranks. Sure, you can play really 'nice' as pop goes the weasel Freddy / Spirit. Try no slow-down perk clown and it's a real different story.

If you jump into a red rank game against a good team with a weak killer the game can literally end in under 4-5 minutes. Especially if you are not running corrupt intervention so you have 2-3 survivors spawn on top of generators and start working on them 5-10 seconds into the game.

It's typical to lose 1 gen for your first hook even with corrupt on the weaker killers. If you don't make something of that hook, you are going to lose every time unless the team is boosted.

Play how you want, just know there's consequences to certain play styles. Just don't hold anything back for the sake of the "fun of survivors".

It isn't hard to play fair and 4k. you gotta know when it isn't worth going after someone and keep pressure by making pathing choices that force them to where others are or where you want to go next. I'm a GD moron and I can do it with basic m1 killers. It's an excuse to be lazy by people who want to ruin others good time.

I have to admit though I belly laugh when the killer gets the least points cause we didn't fall for his crap.

I find it insulting when an opponent feels they have to "go easy" on me (or "play fair", as some people like to misname it) because they don't think I'm worth the effort. Maybe you like it when opponents hand you a win on a silver platter, but I don't.
