I’m toxic now.
Hey folks! I made my first post about how I like to let survivors go a while back. Just wanted to come back to say that survivors treat me like trash no matter how fair I play.
Thus I have decided to be toxic back. When survivors t bag. Or switch items last second so I can’t pick perks to counter. Or are clearly using voice coms(Not for fun but to sweat and coordinate like crazy) as a 4 man swf (not cheating but incredibly unbalanced) I tunnel and face camp them!
It feels great. Especially the voice com using swf. They come into the game with 2 flashlights, 2 toolboxes, bond, everyone running decisive and borrowed time, hook sabo for days, t bagging flashlight clicking etc... Then they complain that they got camped. I love reading all the hate filled messages after. I hate this game. The people that play it are trash and they have made me trash.

I just want to make it clear that I’m not insulting everyone in the community. But a massive portion of the community is so incredibly toxic for no reason. At least in games like smite they flame you when you make mistakes. A lot of people in this game just seem to be filled with hate, spite and contempt. I’m gonna quit playing as it’s not good for my soul. Good luck out there everyone.

I always try to be at least a fair killer. I try not to tunnel. I try not to camp. Hell, if I'm dominating a game, I'll take my foot off the gas (maybe instead of hooking that guy for the third time, I'll let him lie on the ground and get picked back up).
But I 10000% understand why some killers get so salty over survivor behavior that I get why killers become jerks. It's amazing how many times I'll let someone get up only to find them in the end game sitting in the gate area T-Bagging so fast I'm amazed they don't pull a groin muscle.

Tunneling and face camping people for seeming like they're on comms is your prerogative, but if you hate the game and aren't having fun with it the better answer would be to take a break or find a new game. No use torturing yourself or others.

Welcome comrade. Show those survivors no mercy for you shall receive none.

I don't get tons of hate chat, but here are the instances I've had hate chat.
I've let everyone go, hate chat.
Killed everyone, hate chat.
Killed 3 let 1 go, hate chat.
Killed 2 let 2 go, hate chat.
Killed 2 and 2 escaped, hate chat.
Killed 1 and 3 escaped, hate chat.
Got Gen Stomped, hate chat.

Look I understand I'm not even going to try and figure out the amount the times I have let people go and next game regret it because I play a team that is doing everything in their power to make me miserable and get 0 hooks. Then when you get your hands on them theres no time left to play normal so you try to camp to open up the possibility to trade hooks or slug them which results in hate. However I also remember the amount of thank you's and GG's and other good hearted messages I have received from survivors during my time. That is what I focus on. Not the twats because not everybody is like that.

It's a game. Some killers are toxic and some survivors are toxic. If they get in your head, they a break.

People still thinking tunnelling or camping to win is toxic smh.
Start hitting people on hook if you wanna be toxic and shaking your head when you hit them down. Tunnelling is just a really efficient strat and camping only works in certain situations where the survivors leave someone on hook for too long.
2 -
Awww, what a shame. We, as humans, should always try to be better
6 -
At bagging and clicks clicks can be seen as an effective strat then if that’s the case since it quite often gets the killer to commit to a chase that they probably shouldn’t commit to.

I Play exactly the same way. If it's clear I've got a baby in my lobby ill usually let her go (almost always a meg).

I think bhvr should remove end game chat altogether this would instantly become a nicer community. On ps5/4 I've probably only received hate mail around 20 times in 2 years.
1 -
Nice. I'm glad you saw the error of your old ways. I usually support being a nice person, but when it comes to DBD and survivors, show no mercy to them. They will rag on you no matter what. Playing nice is just not worth it. They don't appreciate it most of the time.
2 -
Too much suffering leads to "play something else" :P
3 -
Toxic is writing crap to other people. Tunneling, camping? Your playing the game by it's rules it is not toxic. But this is good you should do everything to destroy the "fun" for that kind of survivors. They only play the game to mess with others.
1 -
I am toxic, you are toxic, everyone is toxic i guess?
#EDIT
I found one more screen. If using pop and bbq on legion is toxic, how about this (i dont mind those builds, for others they can be problematic)

I don't recall if you are the same person I answered when I first heard this post by someone saying they always try to be a nice Killer. I said then, and I'm saying so again now, why would you do this to yourself? All you have to do to be a good sport is the following:
- Don't cheat, either by hack or lag spike.
- Don't disconnect; if you start a game, finish it.
- Be humble in victory, and gracious in defeat.
All that other silly stuff, i.e. codes of behavior telling you what you should and shouldn't do are pointless. I told you then, that it would not matter. Bad sports are going to be jerks to you no matter how nice you place. You are now in a classic overcorrection. Check yourself before you wreck yourself. Just play the game. Ignore the after game chat. Give a polite GG or say nothing at all. Play hard. Why cede bad sports another victory.

Last night I played a game against a very toxic SWF that was obviously on coms. Best game ever. I switched to an ebony mori and NOED before the game started. Two Blendette's with toolkits and 2 flashlights in the lobby kinda telegraphed their intentions. Mori'd one during the game then slugged the other 3 with NOED. Opened the gates to start the EGC and mori'd another that had almost crawled to the gate. Got 2 DCs from the final survivors. Think that is my new strategy vs anyone I think might be a SWF.
1 -
This is just embarassing
3 -
Who brings bond on voice coms lol
7 -
I would say that it is fine to be more ruthless, but don't be toxic. Toxicity breeds toxicity. Don't spread it. You will be toxic to people just trying to have fun. There is no need for that.
5 -
I'm still going to keep being nice.
I refuse to let toxic players affect me on that level. Just because they are petty little things doesn't mean I have to be too.

That post and that username.. I’m so confused

Thanks for the announcement.

The main reason survivors treat you like trash is because they get treated like trash from killers. The same type of killers that you have now become.
Welcome to the wishes circle of toxicness.
5 -
Honestly, I've been playing for 2 months and played both Killer and Survivor, I would estimate as a Killer I get some sort of toxic chat regardless of how I play at least 3 games out of 10. Playing as a survivor, I almost never see Killers say anything other than gg. Even if it's a 5 gen face camper, they won't ever say anything in the lobby, which leads me to believe its just a confused new killer who doesn't know how to get kills other than facecamp + NOED (and perhaps console if they're also not typing).
I think you are absolutely wrong to say Killers kicked off the circle of toxicity, in fact I think it's the other way around (case in point, see the OP)
3 -
This is false. Survivors treat killers like trash not because killers treat them in kind, but because they can. Killers can play perfectly, no tunneling, no camping, no slugging, no toxic comments in endgame chats and you would still have survivors acting toxic. Heck, the devs made sure that the new animations wouldn't affect t-bagging because they didn't want to upset survivors and take away from their enjoyment bming the killer at the exit gates or after every pallet stun.
Survivors treat killers like trash because they have a sense of entitlement that the killer is their play thing and has to play a certain way and when they don't, the killer must be punished, be it verbally or in game. Just go play killer against a swf bully squad that out match you and give up, literally just go stand in a corner and they will drag the game out as long as possible. Heck, pretend that you are a total noob and you will see that they will drag out the match just to mess with you since you're no threat.

To keep your sanity and joy in the game, i strongly recommend you take one lobby at a time in deciding to be toxic. Join a P3 lobby with items? Anticipate toxicity. Experience BM in the match? Have at it - camp tunnel do what you want.
But when you encounter survivors who give you a good game and don't bully you or purposely try to irritate you, let one or two go or see if you can mess around to rack up some BP together. It's cathartic when you pay it forward to fun survivors

Your username is very ironic.

Not long ago, i had a game against an unexperiecend killer. The gens went fast and he chased me for quite a while, not able to catch me. In the end before we opend the gate my friend and i thought we give him some free hooks simply because of good sportsmanship and so he gets some bloodpoints aswell. The 2 randoms joined us under a hook. The end of the story was that we all got downed and he let us bleed out. In the endgame chat we got insulted for genrush and how unfair the game is.
No side is better then the other. Many survivors try to play as scummy as possible and many killer try to play as scummy as possible. And.. like i said... the reason for that is because they got treated like ######### in games before. Arguments can be made for both sides.

I just wanna say the game I played is bs bc I helped this guy up and the killer killed me on a hook and let him survive, the killer was a player on a Xbox or a pc and the killer shook his head up and down and stood there and let him escape,

Some embrace it faster than others.

This. I'm stomping you? Expect me to let you get a play (such as me walking right pass you as if you just managed to hide, even if you were so obvious neon legion could hide better) as well just wander the map instead of actively patrolling PoI's. I might even set up scarier moments where I pass by, before suddenly jumping you when you think you're safe instead of just "Get out of that locker meg, we're going on an adventure to the nearest hook."
Be toxic tho, and I wont give the same privilege. I will remove you from the game by force.

yep we should all do that I mean survivor q time are already long let see if we can make them infinite.

If you're feeling the same as OP, by all means. I have fun playing killer regardless of whether I'm playing against SWF and I don't feel the need to tunnel and face camp people.
0 -
no I don't feel the same but I can see why some don't play anymore survivors are now bad wording about survivor q time I wonder why? is it because with out killers survivors can't play food for thought.
and nice you still have fun I do too sometime but other time it not fun and I don't tunnel and face camp but sometime you have to like when all gens are done.
and if you never tunnel and camp ever then you must have sweaty build or your using one of the 3 or 4 killers that can handle most matches
I don't my 4 main are not even in the b rank of killers so yea.
edit scratch that one more main in higher rank but not good with the spirit I like to be.

There are a lot of toxic people but I’ve met lots of nice people too. Like people will stay at the gate and let me get free hits for blood points in games where I’ve done bad. I think the toxic people are a minority. Don’t let them sour your game just turn the other cheek and don’t spread the toxicity as someone else said.

I just am not looking to always kill all of the survivors at all costs; I play to have fun myself and to let the people I'm playing against have fun. Like, if I see someone trying to body block after a hook save, I'll almost always just hit them and chase them instead of ignoring them to down the person who just got unhooked. The only time I "tunnel" someone is pretty much when I can't find anyone else. Like, let's say I leave the hook to patrol gens, then 30 seconds later they get saved. If I haven't found anyone on gens, I might go back to the hook. If I can't find the person who did the save but catch the one who was hooked healing, or something, I'll still down them. I get that camping is the right play sometimes and I'll proxy camp at times too (usually when someone's hooked during the EGC), but I try to avoid that when I can. I definitely don't tunnel or camp just because people are in a party though, like, people should be able to have fun playing with their friends.

I don't have to kill all survivors every match either want everyone have fun but some survivors make it they life goal to try to gen rush and piss the killer off much as they can that's not fun.
killer need to have fun too not to be survivors play thing if that was the case killers should be just AI not really players.
