Do you feel bad for the players?

Just out of curiosity do you survivors feel bad when the killer gets destroyed, and he's trying their hardest to at least not depip, but never seem to be able to? Like they are just given can't seem to make a difference and get t bagged by a fellow survivor? I'm asking these because today I watched as a survivors watching a clown who just is trying to try the new killer getting t bagged flash lighted like crazy and mocked at by end game chat, I tried to cheer the guy up but didn't fully work. He tells me has had games very similar to this and that he is actually hurt by this. And I wonder do other survivors pity the killer or do they not care at all, so I'm asking do you pity a Killer, when he or she tries his ahrdest to get a good game but falls behind and is ridiculed by it, do you feel pity?

    As long as the killer doesn’t tunnel or camp I’m actually glad if he gets a atleast one kill in the end. Since I know how frustrating it can be especially with the current matchmaking.

    Heres to hoping it does and doesnt just change the fact that you cant confirm at the end.

    All. The. Time. I'm a rank 1 survivor.. so if I get into post game and realize it was a rank 10+ that was trying, I feel terrible. This is assuming they didn't do anything I personally disagree with like tunneling/face camping/slugging..

    I am playing Pyramid Head to get his P3 cosmetic and my god, I feel bad for some of the more competent survivors.

    I mean, I went against a Tapp recently that knew how to loop fairly good and was repairing gens but his teammates were all massive potatoes, one of them even unhooked him in front of me while I was charging my ranged attack while he was tormented and I had no other choice but to send him to a cage to make good use out of them. And then he died in the cage because no one rescued him.

    Yup I feel bad. I actually hate it when I see my teammates teabag and act toxic towards the killer at the gates, especially if they didn't tunnel or camp. Makes me wanna smack 'em.

    ME too I'm like dude what if the killer is having a rough day already lets not add onto that

    I mean I don't get mad at kilelr if he tunnels but if he does it from the start I do get mad but near the end game not really because I can tell he or she is desperate, they know they're screwed and trying to make up for it so I respect that

    I play too much killer to not feel bad for them if they're having a terrible game. If I know everyone is safe and the door is open, I'm out. I know how frustrating it is to have people not leave and I don't want to be "that survivor who wants Mommy/Daddy to show up and escort them out" because I know how much I hate it as killer. Also why I don't BM. Doesn't matter how toxic the killer is being, no point in being a dick back to them about it.

    I'm a killer main, I'm currently playing survivor because of the audio bugs, I was playing against a rank 2 huntress that couldn't down anyone, we were on fracture cowshed, so she gave up when 4 gens were done, I decided to give her my kill, she didn't wanted to kill me so I just stayed there during the egc.

    At the endgame chat, the huntress said that she was having a really bad day while playing dbd and sent me the <3 for giving her the kill.

    yeah thats ######### sad man, but i think that i am the only survivor to think about this because when i play killer they are toxic on endgame (Sorry BHVR for this HUGE amount of reports that i sent you)

  • JasonS

    I don't know why I'd feel sad for the other team considering I am on a giant lose streak. Some games on killer I can barely scrape together 8K points.

  • Dabihwow
    Dabihwow Member Posts: 3,409

    And sadly that's what the toxicity of this game is doing to people making them more careless than before about others and it sucks I think this is where the toxicity come from, carelessness.

    Yeah, I feel bad for anyone having a bad game. It amazes me how many people lack empathy, and treat people in a way which they would not want to be treated.

    I'm with you, I just go with the saying "Be the change you want to see in the world". I never play toxic, and no matter what side i play, i try to see that all 5 people have a fun match, really all a person can do.

    Whenever I have a killer who has a really bad match, I like to let them just down me and hook me. They usually just drop me in the exit gate, but I at least offer them a kill, even if it is just 1. I'd rather them get some more points.

    I get abused quite a lot whenever I try to play Clown, this usually leads to me equipping an ebony mori on the next game and relentlessly torturing the survivors just to even out the karma. My opinion of survivors is very negative in general since toxicity is quite rampant in this community.

    If a killer wasn't scummy and I see another survivor teabag at the exit gate after they got saved by someone else, I always wish the killer could get them tbh. I empathise with the other side whenever I play either role since I play both, tbh.

    As both a killer and survivor main I respect your decision.But I don’t think it’s appropriate to take it out on the next group in another match.They didn’t do anything to you while you take your anger out on them.

    I remembered that you liked them so I decided to go at it again😂.

    I feel bad when I don't encounter the Killer the entire game because they're on the other side of the map with my team and I'm doing 3/5 gens myself. Then I escape unscathed.

    Oh that's nice. :) I still do wonder how big your collection is? Or do you still want to keep it as a secret?

    Why would anyone feel bad for the new guy 😂 if he’s learning the ropes still who cares he probably isn’t going to win the match anyways. Let him train. No I don’t feel bad for anyone that plays this except for survivors. I don’t feel bad for killers because YOU ARE OUT THERE BY YOURSELF. You have nobody to rely on so it’s totally on YOU not to make mistakes. As for survivors I have experienced countless times where I get hooked, unhooked immediately after and re-hooked. The game lags and my character dies on struggle phase because for some reason they would rather have us smash A or Space bar than do skill checks. There are way more frustrating things about playing survivor. Proxy hook camping, tunneling. It’s just not fun a lot of the time. But wait... we should feel bad for the killer who is learning how to play? Feel bad for people playing killer that’s getting bullied with in game items and momentum changing stun plays? No. Thats ridiculous.

    As for the exchange of messages between survivors and the killer that may be hurtful. When you’re talking about in general both sides get harassed. It’s not just the killer. Survivors get messages from other survivors too 😂 they fight amongst each other when you play solo.

    1 night I got beaten by 4 red ranks in 2 matches, so I play more serious. Next match I able to down 2 survivors in 15sec, I thought "woo, Im soo good".

    Just to realize there were 2 Brown, 1 Yellow, 1 Green that match. I went too hardcore on them

  • SaltyRainbow

    yes i do. there is always a living person behind a role.

    but i thing "gifting" a struggeling killer pips wont do them a favor. hopefully he will sent against worse survivors and has a chance to improve his gameplay before he gets back to the highranks.

    sometimes i give the killer the kill when he played very fair and the other survivors dont appreciate it. the chill killers are rare enough.

    and a lot survivors dont appreciate killers who care about everyones fun.

    on the other side a lot killers dont appreciate fair and nice survivors too. like no obsession = no dstrike = tunneling as hard as possible. to make sure that those survivors pick dstrike again and stab the next killer with a 59sec strike which he didnt deserved.


    as killer i feel bad for surviors who get farmed or sandbacked and i go for the troll.

    onetime i facecamped a troll with the other survivors together, was fun^^

    i give often hatch too when a survivor played well but his mates messed up all game.

    I definitely feel bad! I won't sacrifice myself to a killer just because - like someone mentioned earlier - I don't want to give them the safety/pip if they didn't actually get it, but I for sure feel badly. But I also think context is important? A couple of examples:

    1) Went against a clown that got his first hook, found me, started a chase, hit me, I stunned him, and he just shut down. Like stopped mid-chase and stood in that one spot for the rest of the game. I immediately realized this was someone new who got discouraged, so I just tried to get people to do gens to end the game (some teammates were standing there blinding him, so I was trying to wave them off). I felt badly because he was clearly newer to the game and realized he was outmatched, and that sucks. Turns out he was like R19.

    2) Went against a PH recently that I ran for the last 4 gens. He got a single hit on me during that time. I was starting to feel bad because I genuinely am not the best looper. I have my days, but this was far better than I expected I'd do. I was starting to feel bad here, but then later saw he was green ranks. Could have been new to PH, but a green rank killer should have known to cut that chase WAY sooner. So I stopped feeling bad.

    So yeah, TL;DR - if I can tell it's a true grey rank killer that got f'd over by matchmaking, I feel bad if the team is trucking over them. And I feel bad if my teammates BM them (again, I've pointed at people to just gtfo the exit gates if they're sitting there waiting to tbag/blind before escaping). If it turns out to be someone that should have had better game sense, I stop feeling bad.

    I kinda feel bad. It goes for killers and survivors both: if I'm playing one side and the killer on the other side or one of the survivors seems like they don't exactly know what they're doing, I'll give them the respect of not playing like a douche against them. If they still get mad at stuff I did, then I can't really feel bad for them because they can't be mad at me for just doing what I need to in order to survive them.

    In a roundabout way, I guess you could say I do feel bad for them, at least enough to play differently.

  • StardustSpeedway

    Yes. If I'm playing survivor and I see that the killer can't get any downs or if I know he's making a ton of mistakes during a chase, I'll let myself get downed and give him a hook. Don't care if I get camped or die during end game collapse.

    As killer, it's pretty obvious to me when I'm playing against new players. I try to chase them, hook them once or twice to give them the thrill of the chase, and let them escape. During this event, I was letting everyone escape so survivors could get their crowns. If someone disconnects as soon as the match begins, I also let them complete the gens and escape after hooking them several times. I was surprised at how many appreciation/thank you's I got from survivors from letting them get their crowns.

    Absolutely never understood why pipping matters to people in a game where ranks dont reward anything

  • Dabihwow

    Its sad that people take advantage of something like this and its not cool for either side.

  • Fog_King

    Of course I feel empathy for the player, at least most times. If the killer was fair, but things went wrong or sometimes if a survivor is just unlucky, being farmed by the team, being the one found time after time, it's sad for them. When playing survivor, 99% of the time, I don't t-bag or do anything to be toxic to the killer. Of course if I ran them around for a long time, they might consider that as annoying, but it's not toxic.


    Meanwhile, I see survivors t-bagging at every pallet, at missed attacks and at the gates and still don't understand why people do this. With Ghostface, I see him t-bagging too, sometimes unprovoked. Killers trying to hit survivors that are hooked (not that they can do it now, but they try). People need to try to be more civil to each other. Behind every character there's a person with feelings.

  • Dabihwow
    Dabihwow Member Posts: 3,409

    They do it just to feel good and the only time I did t-bag was just to see what it wa like and it was boring like wait for a single killer, really it was more boring than to do the gens
