Why do survivors act like they haven't been seen when they clearly have?
Lol seriously, if I stare at a tree from 16 meters away because I see your hand, that is me giving you a chance to live. But no, they just crouch there...waiting... then two smacks later they are down on the floor and put on a hook. Are you doing it to be funny, or do you just really believe you are Claudette?
I'm lookin at you dweets

Naw, you'd be shocked how many times I've just gone still and a killer has completely missed me. Like yeah I will bail when you start walking towards me but I've had so many killers stop, stare for a second then wander off and im home free.

I imagine it's because sometimes you didn't see them
With the rise of TTV Names with crossplay being implemented (so I play a lot more PC players who put that stuff in their name), it's amazing how many games I'll watch from their viewpoint and realize that I walked right by them.
Sure, when you see them, they look like idiots as you walk up to them and give them a smack but I imagine they think you look like an idiot every time you walk so close to them that they could have goosed you with their flashlight :D

Cuz you only see the idiots.

You remember that one time you laughed because you clearly saw someone just crouching there
But you never realise the 100 of times they laughed as you missed them standing still in the open
Our eyes are adept at seeing movement. Sitting perfectly still when the killer is doing other stuff more often then not works

Never gonna forget that Nea on Rotten Fields that was just Urban Evading in front of me through the cornfield 😂

I wish I could link saved game clips I have saved on my phone.
We do it cuz you wouldn't believe how often a killer circles an area looking for you, looks straight at you crouched against a wall in the wide open and then leaves.
On Saloon like a million times I've had killers literally walk into me while I'm crouched in a bush and they just continue on not noticing they just brushed up against someone.

But it is very obvious when I do. I am literally staring at them behind the tree and they just sit there lol. I know for a fact that they can see me.

This is a classic mistake by survivors. They think you haven't seen them because killer's POV is much smaller.
Best thing you can do is approach them from a weird angle while looking in a slightly different direction so they don't know you've noticed. If you beeline straight for them it tips them off that the jig is up.

Not when I can see the top of their head lol

Not even running straight at them works sometimes, the megs with SB away...but the jakes, clauds, and dweets just sit there... lmao it is just really funny to see

I just love when survivors hide in obvious places.It's pretty cute to see them trying their hardest to not get caught from the big scary killer

The real power move is to commit to crouching behind the tree and refusing to budge until you get hit! Every Dweet knows Killers can't see you when you're not moving :^)

obviously you were hacking, everyone knows that you can't see them they can't see you
2 -
I can’t see you.
You can’t see me.
Therefore, I am hidden.

Me trying to be one with the tree as the killer is walking directly towards me. All the while I'm thinking....bloody hell...did they see me?

Shhhh, plz don't tell anyone, I can't play without walls :(

What I've learned today is that killers are like t-rexes :D

It's probably because there's some genuine cheaters out there. It starts to get difficult figuring out who's playing fair or not.

There can be fun moments if you walk over to them while looking off in another direction, act confused, and 180 spin and hit them. I like to imagine that occasionally causes a little pee to come out, not unlike spoopy Myers.

It happens so often and some ttvs also accused me of streamsniping when I just saw their big fat heads popping out from a tree or something

lol exactly, I don't think most people know what a killer sees vs what they see. It seems to be if they can't see you, then you can't see them.
0 -
I applaud them for having the cojones to do it, I've done it before and it's always a weird rush of like 'wow i'm an epic gamer just by standing still' right before getting obliterated lol! It's an art form imo, and you either emerge victorious or, y'know, die on the hook
1 -
It's possible that since they're in 3rd person, they don't see you so they don't know they've been spotted.
Also, most survivors are absolutely terrible at the game and don't know how to be chased anyway, so they might as well pretend you're a T-Rex. It's all they have.

Same reason a rabbit sits still when a fox spots it.
They're thinking 'has he seen me?'

Because we really DON'T know if you saw us. And if you did, we are waiting to see what your move is gonna be. If a Killer walks towards me and stops for a moment I am not going to suddenly bail in a direction and hope for the best. I'd rather wait until my uncertainty that he may or may not have seen me is 100%, and then act. The other night I was in the Institute as a David King in the dark jacket and this Trapper Killer came towards one of the generators near the wall, but not against it. I hit behind it. This Trapper kicked my gen, then began going up and down the hall trying to find me. Every time he went around the corner, I would repair for 6 seconds to stop the regression and then go back behind the generator between it and the wall.
This trick worked SIX TIMES before he finally caught me, despite the fact I was clearly in his line of vision with each passing sweep because I held as still as possible.

I feel like the fog being low to the ground makes them think they saw you but you didn't see them.

Now, I main a Meg and Jake. Stealth and evasion is my main game. I do stealth better with my meg cause she wears all black and Jake is better at evasion cause he also wears all black but has lightweight and Spine chill.
In any case, I'll SIT there and if I see you moving towards me; as my meg, I'll wait to make sure I've been seen by hearing you raise your blade. As a Jake, I'm GTFO. Unlike meg who I think I can properly loop with; Jake doesn't have my meg perks so he's screwed.
My only reason why I'd sit there is to confirm that I've been seen. I've had MANY times where a killer has come so close as to their red light is SHINING on me and they'll walk away like they didnt see a meg in front of them. I find it funny to blenddette when I know damn well i dont play as her or in the male version Blenden.
Edit: forgot to add my Meg has urban evasion along with SB

When I play survivor I'm always a blendette main.
The amount of times killers get so close to me I could point at them and tough them and they still don't see you is astonishingly high.
The trick is obviously knowing what the killer's FOV allow them to see and what not.
If you play killer enough you'll know their FOV is pretty limited so under certain circumstances you can literally hide under their nose or crouch right next to them and get away with it.
Still, this usually works against average killers, not against the very top killer players.

The fallacy with this is that you don't know how many survivors have done that who you haven't seen; you only know about the ones you do see.
The number of times I thought I'd been seen and then the killer walked right by, plus the number of times as killer I never saw a survivor until they got spooked and ran.... yeah, those numbers aren't zero.

,,Are you doing it to be funny?"
Says the one who finds it funny to kobe in the face of others..
Back on the topic, most of the time the killers DIDNT saw you and just wanted to walk by or something.
Sometimes its worth to take the risk.

Because every once in a while, miraculously it works. I was Felix in his P3 on Ormond once, against an Oni. Was working on a gen towards the outer area of the map. Could hear Oni on his way and I dashed. Somehow in a bit of a hard to remember blur, he lost me around the loop joined to the gen, as I just crouch walked into the middle of the snow out in the open. He looks in my general direction just as I stop moving. It worked. For some strange reason he didn’t see me crouching out in the open snow, and resumed searching around the loop and then gave up.

Because if I can't see the Killer, they clearly can't see me as well. If they do, they are hacking.

I don't think it is bad if that is what I might have somehow implied by that sentence. This is more of a memey post. But anyway, I don't see how hard it is to see a survivor wearing a neon-colored shirt right in the bushes on like yamaoka.

I assume the ones I do see most of the time then are just really bad at playing stealthy lol.

aint anybody got time fo looking around, we got gens to pressure

if you play enough survivior, you should know that most of the killers dont pay enough attention sometimes and often fall for it.

I know, like I said it was more of a memey post, I play survivor and I have been in this situation countless times. Kinda weird how killers sometimes don't pay attention to one of the only hiding spots a survivor could possibly be in, it is also very funny to go behind a tree and have a baby dweet look up at you begging for mercy.
