This strategy is sound and effective, but not in solo queue.
Can we make kindred base kit yet?

*says "git gud"*
*whines about teabagging and clicking*
The jokes write themselves at this point.

This is ridiculous. In Korean server high rank, If you don't camp, you can't kill anybody. Camping is also one of strategy not guilty one to punish. OK?
If these people are really good survivors like Korean server's, they will understand. But NA Survivors usually are not good at playing, they complain.
Just come to Korean server and play killer. So you will understand why camping is also good choice to Killers.

Why not make it more punishing? A significant debit in blood and emblem points? Slow down the timer a bit? I agree choice is great but not all choices are healthy or optimal for the game. So with other developers do, is they implement in-game real-time deterrents to tell players, hey what you're doing isn't really optimal and you really shouldn't be doing it but you're allowed to however it's going to come at a great cost. The current player agency is really limited on the survivor's decision-making. And that's great, but the game should be more of a deterrent as well.

The two statements have nothing to do with each other.
A person's skill level has nothing at all to do with whether or not being a teabagging, flashlight clicking douche canoe makes you a BM'ing jerkwad.

I agree, nothing to say

That's not what the devs said.

Can the devs put it in writing? In the game? Like on the main screen or in the tutorial?
That camping is wrong or it is simply not the objective? This will clear the confusion.

lol it reminds me of Ginny from Friday the 13th part 2. Any killer thinking they have to camp just needs to play against my little brother, if you chase him he will hide in a locker and often does it way to loudly lol

You're telling me that we can't pip/rank up when we aren't engaging in most of the actions needed to pip/rank up.

Why would they do this? They have affirmed on many occasions that Camping is a valid tactic. It is a tool to try to achieve the objective. If used incorrectly it will hurt the Killer. DbD believes in player agency and thus they don't generally don't impose them on player style choices.

I do agree with this but can noed get a anti camp thing then? Im sure you've seen otzs camping noed bubba. Its impossible to do all the totems and punish the killer for camping and youll always lose one survivor to noed. Not losing ground really if you get a draw by the game standards by playing cheap or sometimes he got a 3k because solo que teammates would get off a gen to obviously save then see hes camping then would have to run back. Not to mention the time wasted to get to each gen. In any other case is fine though.

You should rank up in the boy or girl scouts for camping...
1 -
Than why is it that, essentially the entire dbd community constantly argue that it is wrong, unfair, boring, and punish the campers.
Even some users who claim they are killer main say camping is wrong.
At this point, we can all agree it's wrong. So let's make it official so it gets rid of the confusion.
0 -
I'm going to correct you on a few things:
- The entire FORUM community is not in agreement that it is wrong.
- The FORUM is not even representative of the entire DbD community.
- And the DEV have ALREADY stated it isn't wrong, cheating, or invalid.
Your assumptions are simply wrong. Tunneling, Camping, Slugging, etc. are all just tactics that Killers sometimes use. They are niche tools and when used incorrectly hurt the Killer. When used correctly and in the right circumstances they will benefit the Killer. It is ALREADY official that they are not against the rules, not wrong, and not really YOUR purview.
You should worry more about YOUR side of the game play.

To back ip your point, i think that camping and tunnelling are barely even issues jn the game. Not that they dont happen, but the killer controls the flow of the game. You are in the entity's realm tbf there are a lot of killers that would prolly like to watch people die. I hate the fact that, typically, if you dont camp or tunnel, game-speed becomes heavily dictated by the survivors

Things that are annoying and done to try and tilt the opponent are toxic. Neither of the things listed help you win or are actions that are needed. It is toxic behaviour.
Camping is toxic, as are Teabagging and clicking at the Killer. You can disagree but you'd be wrong. 🤷

If you prefer that playstyle, I recommend basement Trapper.

When survivors complain about camping, they are not referring to when camping is utilize correctly. Survivors are complaining about when it is used incorrectly.

I don't agree with camping. But you never see any survivors complain about playing survivor and also have other people in the community say "well maybe you should play killer." You NEVER see anyone say "maybe you should play killer" This could be that it's the more stressful of the roles. This "maybe you should play survivor" mentality is adding to the drain of killers in the game. It's just driving up those queue times for other survivors and also it's also the lowest hanging fruit. We should be working to improve our community and listen to people's grievances as opposed to being dismissive.

When PLAYERS complain about anything here, they looking to scapegoat something, blame anyone or anything other than themselves for their own loss. We lie best when we lie to ourselves. Let me break something else down for you; we all are playing the SAME game. Statistically I run into just as many campers, tunnelers, sluggers, etc. as you do. It isn't a problem for me. I look at each game that goes south as an opportunity for me to get better. I ask myself what I could have done differently. In short, my ability to control things starts and ends at my own actions in a match. The same is true of you.
Brutal as it may sound, your comments are just a high pitched whining noise. We have heard it before, and we will hear it again. Eventually you will simply learn to live with it and play the game, or you will move on. The sooner you accept the nature of the game, what you can and cannot change, the happier you will be. You just need to stop making assumptions. The ACTUAL DbD Community is made up of everyone who plays. The total number of people who post here (or have ever posted here) is a tiny minority compared to the actual number of Players. The real DbD community members will never post here or show up on social media. They just come and play the game.
Even the much smaller community of this Forum isn't in agreement about anything. You should not try to speak for everyone globally. You would do better to speak only for yourself. Better yet, you should use the energy you waste here playing the game and honing your skills.

I completely agree with you dude

The devs have written it into the game code that killers have points subtracted from their score for staying in close proximity to the hook so, yes, that is what they said actually.

Giving someone legit advice to maybe try their luck on the opposite side isn't dismissive. The fact that you took it that way is beyond me. I could see if I said "Maybe play a different game", THAT is dismissive. I legitimately feel like Killer isn't for everybody, hell, I've been playing DBD for YEARS and I can't play/advance as Killer to save my life. My niche is Survivor and maybe that is OP's place to try as well. Maybe stop trying to find the negativity in someone's post to stir up drama? We have enough of that on the forums and don't need anymore. Thank you.

All I want is for NOED to gain an extra requirement to punish camping killers that use NOED. It doesn't feel fair that they camp two people to death and then get the other two because noed was granted free. Just make it require all four survs to be hooked once or it works only on hooked players. In normal games without camping the perk would still function as it should assuming everyone is hooked once and it still punishes survs for not doing totems. Also to OP if you rank up from camping you'll just get harder survivors to catch anyway and if you're not leatherface or wraith I bring borrowed time just to piss people like you off and do my best to make sure you get zero kills because camping is scum and camping to secure that 1 person kill is just pathetic in my eyes

We already know what the answer to camping is. Is to just deal w it.
NOED counter is easy. Just do bones. It gets rid of anything totem related. Survivors have the perks and the items to destroy all 5 in the first 2-3 mins of the game.
I totem rush half my matches. It's pretty easy.

thats why you should be a low rank killer you dont have the skill to be at higher ranks, trust me, you will only get bullied.

People say just do bones from samination like it's religious. I know I use inner strength 24/7 do bones isn't the point. Do bones works when you have a normal game when you're against a killer who isn't face camping each time they catch someone assuming the chases are short because I'm taking time to cleanse these totems when I could be helping finish the gens before we all get face camped to death. The killer at that point gets a 2-3k and if they don't have noed it becomes a wasted effort for points. Now if they aren't face camping then yes ######### do bones problem solved. The mori with camping situation isn't an issue anymore since they nerfed mories.

@Almo nice politic...survivors can play with voice... survivors can see icons add-ons and killer's perks...survivors can all
killers cant see nothing... killers cant camping...killers cant kill after first hook survivors (memento nerf)...killers cant counter borrowed time and broken hard dead
comfort for baby survivors :D

Camping doesn't really show a lot of skill. Literally anyone can camp a survivor to death, it's not at all hard. I don't think you deserve to rank up by playing unskillfully, do you?

@thesuicidefox SWF with voice its unskill...of course with discord u are tourmanemt mosters but if u play solo u feel difficults and can do nothing :D

@thesuicidefox try to get rank 1 and play solo survivor without discord and i will tell u "yes u have skill" :D i got rank 1 solo survivor and its not hard difficult....as more players tell about difficultes to solo survivors :D ITS LIE :D

Face camp is rare. If ur that butthurt. Just stop playing this game.
Human memory is not dependable. U remember those moments vividly, even though u just had 10 games where nobody facecamped. But u feel like u been facecamped all day.

I've been playing survivor and killer at rank 1 for like 2 years now. Solo and SWF.
Camping. Is. Easy.

@thesuicidefox but camping u get punish if u play with discord u not get punish :D

They rank up because survivors let them rank up. Whether it be mass rush the hooked person so that the killer gets rewarded for it, or suiciding on the hook for whatever reason to free the killer to move on. People who are bothered by camping tend to not take responsibility for being contributors to making it a worthwhile tactic.
0 -
I never said I was bothered by camping. I said it doesn't take skill.
Yea that's still not skill on killers end. Putting someone on a hook and jut standing there waiting is the most passive way to play killer and should not be rewarded more that it already is by stupid survivors.

Camping is cringe, go play the tutorial if you want that.

If I meant that comment to be directed to you, I would have specifically said "you" rather than "people." You're quoted because I'm answering why unskilled play is getting rewarded, and then pointing to the people doing the rewarding.

Minimal effort gains you minimal points. If a survivor spends the game hiding in lockers and waiting for the hatch, they get next to nothing, If you spend most of the match staring at a hooked survivor, you get next to nothing. It's hardly a difficult concept to grasp.
I personally have no issue with camping, or at least I'll sigh and dutifully hang there to give teammates time, but if you want more points they are out there on the map waiting for you.

Nobody is butthurt and you're not a therapist that ######### doesn't stay in your head like you've been face camped all day.
