Dear swf outfit squads, no I will not enter a lobby with you.

That's a real question for the swf groups who wear the same names or clothes. What are you trying to archive except many lobby dodges?

    Who cares what they wear? The icons tell you who you’ve got.

    Don't understand why you would have a problem with people using a similar name such as a clan tag or whatever, it's being honest and letting the Killer know they are about to face a SWF. It's better than random names disguising the fact it is a SWF.

    People wearing the same outfits is a bit of a cheap tactic though yeah

    It's stuff like this that encourages me to eliminate one at a time, not going to play into that cheap tactic.

    I'm very very anti-tunnel...but if all the survivors are literally the same person in the same outfit, then I feel it's excusable cos, how the hell am I meant to know who I've chased already?

    You dodge based on what the person is wearing? Just play the match honestly

    Same to people that have the autacity to equip a key. I mean, i see double the keys now, because they nerfed mori and you can't kill them off right away.

    I find the clones are often pretty chill. Not if it's like four blendettes tho, don't do that to yourself

    It's funny. I mean that's probably why a lot of people do it.

    It honestly doesn’t change anything, you’re still going to be matched by any kind of SWFs regardless. I used to dodge too but those types of matches are to be expected. Dodging doesn’t really do anything it just kinda makes it harder for people who solo que or people who actually want to play.

    Dodging because they're all using the same outfits? Just power through it. Get some confidence in your ability as killer

    Just 4k slug them. Let them stew in their collective blandness for four minutes.

    I just had the game match me with the exact same swf squad twice in a row. So I'm done playing for the day.

    Play as wraith with lightborn. Watch them search around for the killer. Waste their time, don't feed the bully squad, the longer their in your match, thats one match another killer isn't tormented by them.

    NOED perhaps if you want to surprise one at the end

    Y'all will complain about tryhards then when people meme around you will also complain. I did this a couple of times with friends just for the fun of being four Steves screaming with that stupid voice of his.

    Sometimes it's not that deep, I promise.

  • Same when I played killer I immediately dodged if I saw three or four of the same character

  • TragicSolitude

    If more than one person is playing a character, I'll dodge. I don't wanna tunnel, and my memory isn't good enough to keep track of multiple people playing the same character ("I hooked Meg... wait, there are two Megs? Which did I hook, the blond or the redhead? Fuuuuudge. Whatever, you guys finish those last four gens, I'm gonna go get a drink.").

    Yeah, if I think I might bother to hook anyone, I'll dodge if there are multiples of the same character. I know myself too well, if I get confused about who I've hooked I'll just get frustrated with my poor memory and go afk, anyway, so it's better to dodge.

    That “bill” post is great.

    I dont know, my usual teammates and I sometimes will all be the same person only cause we think it’s fun - not to annoy the killer.

    I love putting sweat squads in their place, it's really fun when they are salty post chat because you know they are use to steam rolling every killer they face because they cry and moan about the dumbest stuff, like your add ons or how you camped, etc.

    I am not in SWF but I change outfits to match everyone else's all the time. It's cute.

    Don't assume every bunch of people wearing the same stuff are SWF.

    Imagine starting a sentence with "imagine" without it being in a salt filled entitled survivor sentence.

    I know, I'm a dreamer.

    They are memers most of the time. They are playing for fun and never sweating. You can see them walking in crouch like a train. They will probably not gonna do gens. So it's kinda sad that you have to kill them.

    Bully squads like to do last second switch. If survivors deside to bully you, they probably not gonna let you dodge the lobby. Bully squads also rarely doing gens. They more enjoy stunning, blinding, clicking and t-bagging untill you kill them.

    I generally don't dodge lobbies, but everyone playing the same Claud is normally code for "We're going to make this match suck." Still never dodged, but I considered it. Sometimes I wish I did.

    True. In experience most survivors that wears the same outfits (example pizza dwights) are just randoms or casual swf teams. The tryhard swf likes to distinguish with their unique cosmetics 😄

    I remember playing against 4 Neas wearing similar outfits once and they all died within 3 minutes. Clone squads aren't always good at the game, the majority of SWF groups that you dodge are probably easier to beat than a group of 4 solo players, I don't see the point to lobby dodging.

  • IWasLeft2Die
    IWasLeft2Die Member Posts: 2,405

    The cosmetic thing i personally feel more iffy about. I've had lots of lobbies where survivors just decide to match a player and they aren't survivor with friends. Its just kind of a weird thing people do sometimes.


    As for names, I could a more likely scenario where people are playing swf, although I've been in a game with a player named something like Left4Food, which we didn't know each other but I found hilarious. I dont mind 2 players playing together and even 3 isn't terrible but 4 swfs can be very rough. Ill still play it though

    Welp, they are trying to archive what most SWF try to archive, cheese the game as much as possible and then pretend "they are just trying to have fun".

    But it's okay really, if they want to be the kind of obnoxious clone team, we as killer can also just dodge them and make their queues longer and longer.

    Sadly I dont even think thos people realize that's what is happening and will just come and whine on the forum about how long the queues are.

    Most the time I will match outfits with my random lobby for a meme not to be sweaty

    I prefer not to face duplicate cosmetics. Personal preference for a number of reasons. If I see 2 or more identical, I'll dodge and not feel bad about it at all. How I like to play.
