SWF thoughts

hi all. Just wondering what everyone’s thoughts were on playing against a 3-4 man SWF. I play both killer and survivor. Yesterday however I was playing with just one other player and the killers instantly left due to the fact that we were a SWF duo. I get people want to play with their mates and stuff like that but as a killer I sometimes leave when I am playing against a 4 man SWF. Playing a high ranked game against SWF can get so difficult.

    2 man swf is fine. Even two sets of them. 3 to 4 suck because certain builds i like arent viable like knockot and third seal combo. I do play swf 2,3,4 group so as killer i dont lobby dodge but have to change loadout and expect a whooping especially at low rank. Also expect tbagging n holding game hostage at end because u dont go to the door to chase them out. Also expect salt if someone dies. On ps4 here.

    imo since swf essentially gives them free perks due to communication, they should receive the following debuff

    2swf = 3 perks for both

    3swf = 2 perks for the 3

    4swf = 1 perk for all 4

    Oh heyal naw. Unless I'm doing a ritual that doesn't involve hooking, or sacrifices, or such, buh bye.

    I'm not good enough to deal with people with -that much- advantage.

    for me swf has always been a negative experience no matter what side im on . If its as a survivor and your the lone man out prey you stay out of the killers view cause they leave you to die , even most 2 mans will focus on their buddy then the rest of the people on the team . As a killer 3+ usually sucks , 2 or 2+2 not too bad until you get those depipping tards whos only skill is beating people far below their skill levels , that and the ones who team up with all their rank 2 buddies at 16 .

    And the depipping goes both ways too . how many streamers are level 80+ playing a level 15 p3 killer or survivor . If I was level 15 and p3 I think I would be hiding it because it just goes to prove I don't have skill or I cant win against people above that level . This is why the survivors need the op swf organization , at level 15 a 3 or 4 swf group equals one of the upper levels de piped killer . Its just poor mechanics all over in one giant cluster ...

    I don't care for a 2 person swf but more than that and it can be cancer. They have to much info and when played by good survivors it can easily make a game last less than 4 minutes. There really is no way to fix this enless they want people leaving and rejoining again so they can play with their buds. They also are cancer if your a solo player as they might farm you or just not care about you and leave you to die.

    I'd just rather let killers themselves opt out of the swf "challenge".

    Lobby dodgers are cowards. A 4 men SWF group is so tasty. As they are harder to play against, anything goes. Camp and tunnel away, juggle if necessary, bring out your most tryhard build... Casual games and meme builds are fine, but still, heavily competitive games are the best.
