Are Gen Rushers a Community Problem?

It's a fundamental game problem. The problem is there are so many bad survivors nowadays who do everything but gens so how can the devs address gens besides designing better maps?

Also I don't know why this thread is getting a lot of traction from people memeing back at each other with humility involved, those arguments are already invalid anyway. Adding humility back at other aggressors doesn't solve any issues, in fact it doesn't even add any input. We might just have to get some forum staff involved, I'm not taking sides here either I'm just stating that criticizing someone's character doesn't add any actual value. Gen rushing IS something that exists, some people just have their own definition of this term which brings in their own determination of it, where as few technical issues is are ones that do need to be looked at by the developers themselves. Flaws in design is something that do exist, we shouldn't ignore that and carry it on because it just gives you an advantage. Not reporting some problematic content the game has just keeps existing said technicalities.

Looking back at the playerbase's graphs I don't think staff would gain anything from banning people from the game, since we're at peak 50k players. People payed for the game and can continue to buy cosmetics so in a way you can help the company out so they can keep their servers up, however some criticism should be allowed and not silenced; it's a way to try and help make the game better.

Note the difference, back then there was more players. This was probably because of new survivors and killers being presented for upcoming DLC last year, well that and a few new cosmetics. These graphs count players on steam, but I could be wrong on that. This might not be counting console players or even windows store players. So correct me if I'm wrong, but this graph is the one that's up to date in terms of steam graphs.

You must stop this nonsense. I called you out on all your dishonesty.

1. You're gaslighting again. Everything I've said about your arguments I have supported with quotations, zero speculation.
2. How am I biased and ignorant? You are just hurling insults now with no basis. That speaks for itself. The only one here who is deeply biased and can't admit it is you, the one who asks a question but already stubbornly has their answer and argues with and insults everyone who has a conflicting view.
3. I am accusing you of being dishonest not to be toxic, but because what you say conflicts with how you behave. You are literally being dishonest: It's not an insult, it's an observation. A rational person would clarify their stance and call out any misconceptions I may have (You're not doing this) whereas an irrational/toxic person would hurl insults back as a kneejerk defensive/guilty reaction (That is what you are doing) Also, you do not have freedom of speech here; these are privately owned forums, and you're subject to the rules here. You can be silenced at any moment (American?)
4. You are being dishonest. You originally played coy and innocent, "just asking a question" but you have since devolved into passionately (and rudely) arguing your belief. It's almost like your original question wasn't a question at all, but an insinuation, and everything you have said since then proved such. You are very dishonest and you lack self awareness if you cannot see what you are doing. Just be transparent about how biased you are instead of pretending (and failing) to act like you're impartial.
5. I don't care what the other member said to you. I didn't even read it. That's not my business. I think you are confusing the two of us, seeing as how you're insulting me with a level of toxicity that I have not levied against you. You're confused with who you're talking to. If you want, I can stop responding to you because you seem totally disoriented: You're fighting battles on multiple fronts, I understand.

There’s no such thing as tunneling that’s just killers doing their objective

Using the logic from ur edit, gen slowdown perks, freddys and any powers or builds which slow gens are a huge community problem.

I don't think there really is a problem these days, especially when you look at kill rates edging 60% these days, an astonishingly high number.

Of course there is such a thing as tunneling. That's one of several ways killers can do their objective. They can camp, they can tunnel, they can mori, and they can three hook everyone separately rather than focusing on one survivor via camp/tunnel.

Whereas survivors have only one way to do gens and that is to actually repair them. You think you're being a smart aleck comparing tunneling to doing gens but its not the same thing. Can you think of an alternative method to do gens other than actually doing them? Its why the gen rush label is nonsense.

Splitting up to do gens is the most effective way to get gens done. Explain why that is bad.

Leaving team mates to die on hook is just bad team playing. And its one less survivor for the killer to worry about. So I don't understand your point here.

Yes I do.

As a survivor I would love to have different objectives besides gens. That's why I think dull totems should give a small bonus to the killer (such as a stackable gen repair penalty per active dull totem) so that there is some sort of benefit besides score to hunt them. Or giving a reverse bloodlust effect to killers (after X seconds out of chase and not within survivor clues AKA scratch marks/blood pools you recieve a bonus to your mobility), so that immobile have a chance to navigate in big maps.

If they were trying to find their own version of anti gen rushing and they couldn’t find it, then I’m pretty sure they woulda stopped using the perks by now.

You think focusing on one survivor, especially when DS is meta, is the best way to win. Ok. Good luck with that.

How? Gen regression perks are clearly gamechanging. You would just never be able to tell with stats because killers who are better at the game tend to run less regression so will get on average the same amount of kills.
