Stop...being...immersed
stop hiding in bushes, stop burning Yamoka and Coldwind maps every game, stop running Urban, stop playing P3 Claudette, stop being useless, stop wasting your team and the killers time, get in a chase and learn to loop the killer instead of hiding in a bush.
Edit: apparently i need to clarify what being immersed is
immersion: pretending you are actually in DBD and therefore take actions that you would probably take if you actually were in DBD, this usually takes the from of hiding in bushes or lockers the very millisecond you hear the Killers terror radius
I am aware stealth is a component in this game, i have accepted that fact long ago, i will never accept the continued existence of useless imbecilic fools who will hide in a locker or urban evade away the very second the killer so much as looks at them AND NEVER TOUCH A GEN OR GO FOR A SAVE

I also do not approve of this playstyle.. but hey its how people play and i respect their decision

yeah imagine hiding in a hide and seek game

As a killer main all playing immersed seems to actually do from my point of view is force me vs 3 people instead of 4. You’re actively hindering the team by not taking my attention. In the wider view of things you’re 2 addition hook states for your team that you’re wasting by always hiding.

Its fun tho. I just finished p3ing claud for this very reason. If i can be sneaky AND good in chase ill be the ultimate survivor
7 -
Would i rather survivors only run second chance perks like adrenaline, unbreakable, DS, BT? Yes please.. Hopefully they're also decent players who can give me a good chase.
It's not about immersing being powerful or not - it's definitely not powerful. It's about wandering around the map bored out of my mind, looking for survivors whilst none of them are doing objectives. I'll still kill them, but now there's the added danger that I'll die of boredom in the interim.

This is where playing the Doctor comes into play. Use him with Restraint add-ons and Iron Maiden and people will have a much harder time hiding from you.

Stop telling people how to play, how’s that? You can still be an immersive player and be good in chases / do objectives. Also you don’t need to call people infantile whilst also referring to them as children. It’s already implied. Thanks.

not everyone is good in chases or a god/good looper i hide and sneak around but i also do gens and totums which help the team and i never use claud or hide do nothing i just do go out of my way looking for the killer.

Thats how I am too. I will take a chase if I need to body block and I will try to learn looping when I do chases. But I don't want to only have the killers attention for half a minute.

Look, I am a killer main, when I play survivor with my pals I suck quite badly especially at looping. My play style is either pimp meg with nice shown belly or blendette. I am a stealth player, I learnt it from Painreliever.

As a killer, I’m fine with any okay style (except toxic). The super loopers waste a lot of my time, but they keep me entertained and occupied until they run me past a hiding teammate. Those guys hide because they’re not super loopers. I switch targets, get a quick down, and hope that this turn of events puts the good runners in a more precarious position.
In other words, a mix of play styles is nice. 4 super loopers is just as boring to hunt as 4 immersed survivors who never touch gens.

👆🏻 Play* style (not “okay” style). Sry, not able to edit post for typos.

Odd, cause when I play "immersed" I get 4 gens and all the totems done by myself while watching hook trades happen constantly from across the map. Then when I am found I die on first hook as the rest of my team heals in the corner.....
8 -
I play stealthy and usually do about 3+ gens each game. Most of the time i get the most bloodpoints, because i do unhooks, gens, totems.
A stealth player either wastes time of the killer for free (because he is not found), or he can hop back to the gen instantly because the killer just runs to the next one.
Or in other words: stop trying to force your playstyle on other players, you little one-trick-pony BECAUSE ITS NOT YOUR PLACE TO DECIDE HOW OTHER PLAYERS PLAY!

I’m the same way. I don’t play ‘immersed’ because I’m scared of the killer or can’t put up good chases, because I can. I do it because when I’m the one being chased, I notice no matter how long I’m being chased for, gens just won’t get done. I play in solo lobbies mostly so I don’t want to rely on strangers to get the objective done. That’s why I try to do the totems and gens whilst also getting unhooks and heals in between.
If I’m spotted by the killer, I’m not bothered. As I know unless I’m really unlucky, I won’t be an easy down. People seem to think that every P3 Claudette will just hide in the corner of the map and wait for the hatch and that’s just not true.

The shittiest thing about these players is when they unhook you. They use their invinsibility cloak as claudette to hide after the unhook which I cant because i am Ash moaning like my life depends on it. So the killer Comes back and doesn't see the unhooker and Goes for me...
And in all honesty i dont blaim him.

No! 👿

Do you have any idea how good hiding can be? I can't tell you how frustrating it is to start a chase, spend a while in it, hit somebody, and then lose them because they ran off and had Iron Will and Urban Evasion. I mean, I can't get mad because it's my fault for losing them, but point is it's not like stealth has no part in the game.
4 -
why hes so mad

If the person being immersed is helping with gens, unhooks, and heals I don't care as long as they're helping the team progress to escape. Odds are they are bad at being chased and being stealth doing everything else is more helpful.
If they are hiding not doing anything, just waiting for their team to do all the work or die so they can get the hatch, then that is obnoxious.

Not to be snide but this is an I'm taking my ball and going home kinda post.
Play the way you wanna play.

i'd take the meta slaves over a "walk into bushes and pray" simulator any day of the week

My sad tale as well...

Some people can pull stealth off in a way that helps the team and I'm okay with those people , it's the ones who are waiting the hatch out from the start and never do anything productive that are an issue , somehow they manage to get to red ranks and then complain about how op killers are 🙄, but those are the ones who also turn every match into a dumpster fire, they hide the whole game and if they're chased first they DC when they get outplayed
1 -
What a moronic post. It's like moaning at a football team for playing only short passes or long balls.
The idea of the game is to frigging survive and get out, not try and out run a 7 ft bloke with a machete. Players play to there strengths, and keeping hidden all match is fairly impressive.
2 -
You can dislike a certain playstyle. But attacking them and calling them names is uncalled for and unnecessary.
4 -
When good loopers say not to be immersed, do they mean I'd be more useful on the hook? Because this is where I'd be if I try playing like them.
3 -
Don't listen to this guy play however you want. He just wants the game to cater to him
6 -
exactly. I had games with 3 immersed players and one usual person. I found the standard survivor, downed them. they got unhooked and the unhooker was nowhere seen. Same precess on 3rd hook.
Yes i tunneled, but it was yamaoka with 3 urban evasion blendettes. Im sorry for the meg but what am i supposed to do XD
I cant hit every bush.

Playing immersed is only ok if it serves a purpose. No, you shouldnt try to get chased all the time, but don't screw over your teammates because you dont want to be seen. Stealth is only good when necessary, and most people don't understand that.

I think it's fun to play immersed as a survivor. This game can be so thrilling and I feel like a lot of people miss out.
2 -
Wrong game jason

i feel this game should be more about Stealth then knowing how to loop a killer forever.
1 -
As much as I dislike this playstyle, you can't order people to play the way you want them to play. I've stopped caring about people's playstyles in this game because honestly who cares? If they're having fun hiding in bushes and me and you can still have fun running around like a headless chicken then it really doesn't matter does it?
0 -
I'd consider it more of a cat and mouse game than hide and seek... But then again I don't play immersed so 💁
0 -
But you would have to be chased eventually or else you are just screwing over your team.
0 -
Nah.

Thank you. Being immersed is how one should always be when dedicated to something.

There's that sweet spot for the most part when it comes to hiding, don't want to do it too early and waste time or too late and get caught out possibly giving a hit.
I agree people need to stop taking it to the extreme and urban evading away the second they hear the heartbeat.
HOWEVER
Just to throw in, this normally stupid gameplay style is verrrry good against Spirit. You want to avoid getting in chases with good spirits as much as possible, and you dunno if the second you hear the heartbeat she's started phasing. I swear out of all my games as Spirit, the ones where survivors are seriously immersive are my worst games.

Why I run Sprint Burst or Iron Will. Every time I don't run Sprint burst or Iron Will, the killer is right back on me and I'm like, why didn't I run Sprint Burst or Iron Will.
