Are there certain things you see in the lobby, as a survivor or killer, that make you dodge it?

As a survivor: For me, multiple users with similar names, obnoxious pre-chat, more than one blendette. Also someone who last minute changes, or keeps changing. That will usually cause me to say good-bye to that lobby.

If / when I ever play killer I think most of that will still apply - save for the fact that I couldn't see pre-chat.


Edit to add: Anyone with TV etc in their name lol. No offence to anyone - but - I do not need my epic humiliation broadcast thank-you-very-much lol

    4 Toolboxes put me on edge. One of your emblems is Gatekeeper so you're already guaranteed Bronze in a quarter of your score.

    If I'm playing to rank up, they get skipped.

    Blendettes. I used to just mori them but now I can't even be bothered - also I can't mori them as survivor

  • Member Posts: 215

    Definitely. Users with similar names, everyone using same Survivor, when someone has a key, when there is a Claudette or David, and finally... I'll end my app if a Mori pops up! I don't have a thing against Moris, just majority Killers suck and use it right after first hook. I'll pass, end app, and yu can keep your Mori.

    Keys - as killer and survivor. killer just makes it unfun, and as survivor, the killer would probably bring a mori.

    2 identically dressed Survivors, especially Blendettes. Though, they get caught when I play as Adam which is VERY strange and nothing at all related to me running a certain perk... 🤔

    I just added another to my list. 3 Console players. Yup Dodge.

  • Member Posts: 13,617

    Yeah, i dodged whenever i saw someone with red ping.

    Of course, we can't see that anymore, so i can't dodge that anymore.


    Also, WAY back, i used to dodge SWF.

    Then they started really swarming the game, so dodging them would just mean more dodging than playing.

    Haven't dodged for that reason since.


    Now i don't dodge at all anymore.

    I saw 3 Flashlights in the lobby 3 matches ago.

    I'm Wraith.

    I stayed.

    I had fun, cause Lightburning Wraith is actually not that easy if the Killer player keeps that in mind and responds well to the situation.

    Also, it's funny to uncloak right in front of them as they try to burn you: Free hit.

    Use to be keys, but since Franklin's just makes them poof now I equip that instead, or just eliminate them as quick as possible. Either/or. Hateful pre-game chats as survivor, since your game is most certainly going to be "I should have left" for half the actions they take. TTV, because like OP, I don't want an audience.

    I used to dodge lobbys back in the day, but now it´s very rare. Only time I´d do it is if I qeued as Trapper and they brought a map in combination with obvious swf.

  • Member Posts: 337

    Bell guy is the one the totally freaks me out. Every time I see them as a killer my reaction is "oh F" I'm tempted to DC (I've never done that on purpose nor would I) but tempted.Instead

    I face my fear! and die.

    What is /was a red ping? Love ping or high or something different?

  • Member Posts: 2,186

    TTVs.

    Those guys are mori magnets and I ain't tryin' to hear that noise.

  • Member Posts: 337

    You're not kidding LOL. So true that I almost feel bad for them.

  • Member Posts: 3,772

    4 Identical characters, all with toolboxes/medkits/flashlights, and it's a premium outfit. Only situation I will ever use the dreaded ebony mori.

  • Member Posts: 2,184

    As killer, more than one P3 since they're normally toxic. OR just one P2-P3 Claudette I don't want that toxicity in my lobby lol

  • Member Posts: 13,617

    Red ping was high, and high ping is bad bad bad.

    You'd most likely have a bad time: Teleporting all over, getting hit from 20 meters, all that stuff.

    So when i saw that they don't leave, i as the Killer left, preventing them from most likely getting a horrible match.

  • Member Posts: 5,680

    High Ping

  • Member Posts: 4,299

    Only ever dodged with red ping in the past as I knew it would be a waste of time playing.

    Now I just play whatever comes my way. Some games I think this will be hard but I like a challenge.

  • Member Posts: 621

    a key if I want to play a special killer and dont have a mori.

    I never play with moris, but keys are the equivalent for me and I want both to be changed...

    But as a killer main I have some Moris to deal with keys so.

    also I never play lobbies with 2 or more keys

  • Member Posts: 4,033

    I do not dodge.

    Every dodge reason I've read (before this thread and in this thread) hasn't really been much of a sign of survivor skill in my experience. Most TTV's are terrible. I get excited at the challenge of a key; only to be disappointed by an unspectacular 4k game. Toolboxes do not make much of a difference. Flashlights are easily countered with game knowledge.

    I am capable of losing. No argument there. But I never know I am going to lose until I do. All of the above are not tells to me on why.

    If I see blendy squad, I'm dodging. Someone that wants that many advantages is probably running 4 second chance perks and a map offering to boot. I'm not dealing with that unless I load in to force them to waste it on an afk/memeing killer. And I am almost always right, to the point where it's just sad how predictable it's become.

  • Member Posts: 3,627

    Not anymore. Only thing, cuz it wrecks the game, is Hag vs flashlights. But even with Wraith I don't dodge flashlights anymore. If more than 2 flashlights it just probably triggers me to use silent bell with indoor maps

  • Member Posts: 136

    Nope. I suffer through every game. Only time I leave a lobby is if I need to afk or if a friend wants to swf.

  • Member Posts: 8,340

    Killer - ttv/yt in gamertag. Maybe lobby of flashlights if I don't feel like dealing with them.

    Survivor - if I'm solo and the other 3 have flashlights it tends to be bad round so more likely to leave, especially if one of the 3 has ttv/yt in gamertag.

  • Member Posts: 399

    I don't think I've ever lobby-dodged as a survivor. I kind of just take what I get because those queue times have always been longer than killer queues for me.

    As killer, I think I dodged once, and that's because it was 4 Blendettes and I just didn't feel like dealing with that nonsense. I play more casually, and that just screams bad match.

  • Member Posts: 919

    4 keys or flashlights.

  • Member Posts: 10

    I don't dodge, and most times I DC are because something came up irl. I enjoy a challenge.

  • Member Posts: 784

    As others have said, red ping. Game's just unfun for everyone.

    Killer:

    • more than 2 flashlights with Wraith
    • if it's clear that it's an 4 man swf (from the outfits or usernames), especially if all are from the same country which means voice comm
    • i used to dodge if there were multiple players with more than ~2000h, but don't anymore. Especially since i destroyed a russian streamer with over 6000h and his friend with over 3000h, i realized that huge playtime doesn't mean inevitably that you're crazy good, some just learn slower than others lol

    Survivor: nothing really.

  • Member Posts: 530

    Not really. I like challenges and dodging just means like I take the loss and nope. But I do put a mori if see a Ash since I hate his annoying screams and the bs he says while in lobby.

    I'm PC, was playing Huntress for dailies/tome quests. Saw a lobby of 3 PR3 Laurie's with "######### CONSOLE PLAYERS" as their names, all of them, and a random solo queuer. NGL I dodged it. Don't feel sweaty tonight, thanks.

    I love Ash, but I do get tunneled a lot when I play him (doesn't bother met at all, just an observation), I thought it was because he's loud as #########, both his voices and his Hawaiian shirt.

    I go after them first. They're usually in an SWF of simps, sometimes even named SoandSosSimp, so I know they will try to rescue each other (most of the time, I've also seen their followers die for nothing and they ran out the door lol). I loathe TTVers.

    I never dodge a game or quit. Whatever happens, happens.

    I dress up in P3 bubba except with the Claudette mask and Insidious camp blendettes, and just the blendettes. You gotta beat them at their own game.
