Survivors Purposely Make the Game Hard for Themselves
I can’t tell you how many times I’ve had a match, all survivors are injured and the killer is nowhere in sight. Still got a lot of gens to do so can’t gen rush. So we should try to heal up right? Nope! Back on the gens or just running around! I spent a while chasing after other injured survivors so we can heal each other but they refuse! Some have even pointed me to work on gens. Buddy, we need to heal up, we are getting our butts kicked and can’t complete 4 gens in an injured state. I can’t even get mad anymore when the team loses. I have to beg and plead to heal and get healed but I guess people love having their guts cut open and leaving blood all over the place. Dumb moves like this is why survivors die quick then complain that killers are too powerful.

Yeah the whole no heal meta only works if all survivors can run the killer atleast decently while injured.
Most survivors didn't get that memo though. And so mediocre survivors trying expert tactics is giving a lot of us killers free games

Same!!! Unhooked this Jake then t bagged to let him know that I was going to heal him and what did he do? Kept running away from me so I had to follow him leaving tracks and blood everywhere and eventually we got found and he got downed and sacrificed

I literally have to beg and point and everything just to try and get us healed up and such, and still they are like “nah bro. I know we are down one already and have no gens done but I think we can make with us all injured! YOLO!” Ugh

Nobody plays a perfect game.
Sometimes not healing is the correct play. Sometimes healing is the correct play. There are no absolutes. Being able to figure out the correct play is what separates victory from defeat.
And what makes that correct or not depends a lot on the players playing. So it is very, very difficult to figure out the correct play especially in Solo Q and against random killer opponents.

I think a lot of these survivors are tryhards who wAtch dbd streamers and videos and think “yeah, I can do that too! Even though they spent hours upon hours daily playing this game. I think I can do all the gens, open the gate, and go file my taxes all while injured!”

killers purposely makes the game hard for themselves by either tunneling or facecamping which always costs them the game

My experience is 100% the opposite.
Most survivors are cowards who hide in corners and self-care.

Well I’ve had cowards who hide and let me do the gens before. Still won’t heal though

Smh they run around the map without any goal, trying to just troll the killer and then go down without finishing the gens. I hate solo queue.

Because YouTube told them Adrenaline is meta. And because they don’t want to feel like they wasted a perk slot, they absolutely HAVE to stay injured to let Adrenaline heal them. And YouTube is never wrong, right?

They make it hard themselves, because some tend to have no common sense. They always cleanse against plague, SELF heal against legion or hop in a locker against him, unhooking without BT in the killers TR and so on.
Do yourself a favor and only play SWF, otherwise you will pull your hair out.

I mean I run injured builds a lot so I don't heal (and can loop quite efficiently unless the killer is a god), but even then i'll 99 myself so I can heal up if needs be!
A lot of people though when they do the no heal stuff refuse to heal others which actually ends up being quite unhealthy as it ruins that persons time that wants to be healed (perhaps they dont feel comfy being injured like others or they just arent amazing loopers!).

I mean some people don't wanna run perks like BT, I myself prefer more interesting builds, and if I do unhook in the tr ill take a hit even if injured
yeah the other stuff is just stupid, the amount of times ive lost against a legion or plague because they dont wanna be injured when in all my other games suddenly no one wants to be healed (rip my auto dic dic)

It's things like this that make me wonder if newer players don't actually play better than more experienced people.
Like, most 'experienced' Survivors always stay Injured, rush unhooks with BT, loop at pallet loops, fake window vaults to bait out a hit, and etc. even if it's not always a good play.
I main Killer so take what I'm saying with a grain of salt, but it can be really powerful to heal before doing gens, it can be better to unhook without BT active than with it active if it means the Killer is further away from the hook, throwing down a pallet early is absolutely a viable strategy depending on the situation, sometimes trying to pull off fakes and jukes is just going to get you hit earlier, and stuff associated with 'baby' Survivors, like just holding W, crouching in a hard to see corner, running past a loop, hiding in a locker, or camping pallets can be smart and powerful plays.
No one play is consistently good, but any of them can be situationally good.
And what separates a good Survivor from a bad Survivor is being able to judge what your specific situation calls for.
I think that newer players (not totally brand new players who have no idea what buttons do what, but players who haven't yet become veterans of the game) understand this better, even if they aren't cognizant of it. Because they don't know or have anyone telling them what specifically to do, they do a bunch different things in order to figure out what works.
While people who play this game for a long time, or play watching streams, get used to a specific routine or strategy and just keep applying it, even when it isn't necessarily a good idea.

Run Kindred it's as good if the killer is not camping. You can even see, if the killer has insidious, if he suddenly disappears without moving.
And with kindred you see, if someone else wants to try to unhook and you can stick to your gen. It's the best info perk.
