Do you try to unhook yourself in front of another survivor that came to save you?

Member Posts: 688

I ask this question because I'm seeing survivors trying to unhook themselves in front of other survivors that came to help them. And I don't mean when the killer is camping or when the survivor has the perk Deliverance or if no one is coming to save you. A survivor is on the hook, another one comes to save them from the hook, no killer around and the hooked survivor tries to save themselves in front of the person that just came to help them.

Of course, do to low chances, most times they can't actually do it, but I have seen it happen two or three times where the survivor actually escapes the hook and the other one ends up just looking at them like "Hum, why did you do that?" Now, I know you get points for unhooking yourself and that is the only reason I see for someone to actually do that, but I might be wrong. So I wanted to know if you do that and why, if you care to share.

    I know it's scummy kinda, but points are points, and it's funny if teammates meme with me when I do unhook myself, I also meme with them if they do the same thing to me tho.

    If I don't go down to phase two then yes, I will. I don't recall the name of the achievement but there is one for getting off the hook by yourself a ton of times.

    Points are Points, and Survival Points trump all

    I despise it when people do that and I am very tempted to leave them and let them hit struggle phase. As we can see from this poll it is only for egoistic reasons. No wonder solo queue is a frustrating experience if people have a mindset like that.

    If I don't have Deliverance and know that unhooking attempt won't send me to the second phase - yeah, why not. It's always fun to 4% xd

    I also love this with Deliverance. Like "cant waste the perk!" and eating the broken status, stealing the 1000BP from the unhooker and most likely go down easily while being broken soon

    I don't get that logic. You want to be tunneled?

    yeah, and you get the 1k while denying the other guy 1.5k

    Also like to selfcare into others faces?

    You get 1.5k for unhooking yourself, it's not like I unhook myself every time, it's a 4% chance, also I only do it when I'm sure to not go into the struggle phase.

    Also idk why are you so salty.

    Well, you should think about that. Ever got a kobe into your face? You said yourself it is scummy, so you got the answer already

    Yea, I got, and it's the most hilarious think in the game.

    Even better if the Survivor that kobed memes with u.

    And most thrilling thing is when the other one DCs, or lets you go to second stage after a failed attempt. Well, I guess it is a pretty subjective topic

    I didn't used to, but now that it's fashionable...

    In my view I find it so distasteful to try to unhook yourself when someone is right there to save you. It has happened to me a few times that the hooked survivor does that and sometimes they actually free themselves.

    I remember one time, there were only 3 of us left. One got hooked, another started being chased and I was on the last gen on the other side of the map. I left the gen and ran to the hooked survivor. When I got there, she tried to unhooked herself in front of me and actually did it. Then she just crouched for me to heal her.

    I was so mad. I left the gen, got to the other side of the map only to not even get any points for trying to save. If it wasn't for the points, a lot of times when I see that kind of behavior, what I want is to let them rot on the hook and get in the second phase, to teach them a lesson. But I don't or the whole team ends up suffering...

    There are way too many perks that give benefits to unhook actions. You don't know if the person unhooking you has BT, Second Wind, We'll Make It, or even WGLF. It doesn't bother me to let myself get unhooked.

    It's rare, but when I actually manage to 4%, it's hilarious when another Survivor just sees me do it. The reaction is usually priceless.

    Even if I'm running WGLF, it's not that big a deal if somebody does this imo. I can get the stack somewhere else and I can probably cap Altruism without that 2000BP. When running We'll make it it's definitely annoying, but it's not really game changingly bad or anything, that's instead extra time spent on gens which is fine by me.

    This is also a more toxic thing than testing your luck, instead of a 4% chance you're intentionally sabotaging the match in a large way. A hook state is a big deal, spending time on gens instead of healing isn't, neither is voiding a WGLF stack. If you crave BP enough to do this than just play Killer with BBQ instead of spiting people who're also trying to get BP.

    I'm just completely indifferent to the whole situation. Unless I'm running Deliverence, in which case sit back and watch me yeet right into your farming face, because the only way you're near me when I Deliverence is if you're going for a farm (I am very impatient).

    It's pretty obvious you're not going to change my mind, and I'm not going to change yours. You clearly care way more about BP than I do and to me it just seems ludicrous. Today I also learned that intentionally sabotaging the match out of spite isn't toxic if the person being sabotaged cost you an out of match resource, let alone the fact that you're also sabotaging the other people in the trial in most instances since they're less likely to escape. It just seems counterintuitive as well, if they fail to jump off then just grab them off for the stack, then you don't lose a chance of a WGLF stack to struggle phase, hell, you could even take a prot hit for them if you stick around and earn 2 tokens instead of harming everybody on your team.

    Everybody has to look out for their own BP, and using that as a reason to harm literally everybody sans the killer just seems toxic, spiteful, and rude

    No because it's scummy you will get less BPs than the person saving you plus he might have Well make it or other unhook perks. I'm thinking of leaving people who try to rescue themselves in front of me from now on.

    It depends on what mood I'm in. If a survivor is coming to get me I rarely attempt to get off myself but if I'm bored and I KNOW it won't send me into struggle phase I'll maybe try once. The only other scenario I purposefully try to get myself off is if I know a survivor is running to unhook me while being chased and they don't have BT or the killer has tunnelled previous unhooks. If the unhooker manages to unhook me in that situation I usually go straight down again in 10 secs anyway because they rarely take the hit. They still get unhook points, just not the safe unhook points, and I would rather they not be rewarded for bad play.

    Ok, I understand your point more now, I still don't agree with your methodology though. It's clear we're not going to change each others minds, so it's better here to just stop wasting our time on bickering online.

    I never try to unhook myself unless doors are open and no one is coming to save me as a last ditch effort to try to get out...
