Punishment for Toxicity

When will we ever see punishments for toxic players that spend an entire game bullying the killer?

I have just finished a game playing as the Twins and I am considering uninstalling this garbage game. I’m a Rank 18 Killer, but I’m good with twins, usually. This absolutely garbage matchmaking paired me with four Rank One players, all of whom with overpowered perks, purple flashlights and their fingers constantly hovering over L2 to teabag. The entire game was spent with the teabagging, flashlight clicking, taunting, pointing and body blocking.

This is the type of behaviour that makes people not enjoy playing as killer, this is why wait times as survivor is so long, because genuinely nobody wants to play killer because of this.


Unless the developers decide to make some changes/punishments for this type of behaviour, I’ll no longer be putting anymore money into this game, nor will I even be playing.

    Yeah all that sucks; it is still nasty behaviour too.


    However making it reportable just wouldn't really be possible; due to the nature of those kind of actions. They skirt the line too thinly for anything to really be done about them in that sense.


    Promoting and encouraging healthy behaviour and sportsmanship would be far more effective anyways. I really think if people could start treating people better we would see a lot of it being paid forward to each other.

    You can record it, report them in-game for harassments and open a ticket in the Support page and send BHVR the video if it was actually harassment. Additionally a matchmaking system will apparently be implemented soon after the update fyi. Finally, try playing killer on more active hours, I've found that current matchmaking only ever works when the queue times are good. Maybe play something simpler like Wraith, Freddy, Ghostface etc while you are learning killer. Cheers.

    I remember when I was learning killer and getting paired against the Red rank survivors who were bully squads. It is hard for it not to be tilting, but at some point, when you realize its going really bad, you just gotta calm down and just walk away for 5 or 10 minutes. It is hard to do, but this game matchmaking is currently PATHETIC and you need to realize it will happen time to time.

    There is no other healthy option when you realize they are doing this to you. Time will make you better, but those moments, where you are clearly outplayed, I suggest watching how they move, try to think about the little things they are doing that is so annoying and just either try to make small progress, walk way, or honestly QUIT the game, as this will happen to again and again as you play this game more.

    I play with a SWF most of the time and when we can tell quickly, when matchmaking ######### over the killer and most of us always try not to bully the killer. If any of our friends do, we yell at that piece of ######### and just try to get match over so everyone can move on. many players though need to stroke their egos because either they had a run of bad games themselves and they are letting off steam, or they are just big piles of ######### who love to ######### ruin others enjoyment. It is impossible to know.

    I've seen stuff like this constantly happen, with the new update coming along giving a certain amount bloodpoints to certain ranks this will turn people to be even more toxic as ever. The only satisfaction that gives me as killer is if survivors can't back up their teabagging and they end up failing and dying at the hands of Legion or Ghost face. I'm sure people find it funny when teabaggers get killed and they end up getting stomped on right after not backing up their teabags.


    Apparently in the latest QnA stream, the game does keep track of the amount of teabags there is per match, saw an image of the stats in that same stream. So hopefully the devs are probably gonna add a cooldown for people who wish to teabag, my suggestion would be to make the crouching similar to that of The Pig's however this might not work out for people who crouch for the longest of time when sneaking around playing stealthy.
