No, I'm not going to die so you can get hatch

You stayed in the basement and could have picked me up while the killer hooked the other two. So no, I'm not gonna suicide on hook for you so you can potentially get hatch.

Anyone ever felt this way in a match? Any thoughts?

    Yup! At Midwich I went through 2 hook phases then death because one guy hid in a locker for the entire time (it was just me and them left). Fortunately, the killer must've found them as when I died I flicked to view the survivor trying to circle around a table - the hatch closed. They died, then had the gaul with his mate to whine at me for not suiciding. I just told them that's karma and blocked them.

    It's just that entitlement which annoys me. Unless you're on comms and you agree to sacrifice for the hatch, if someone is gonna wait it out, don't expect any help from the hooked individual to die early. That someone doesn't deserve an easy escape.

    I think everyone that plays survivor a good amount has.

    My whole stance is - I try to be the best teammate possible. Whether its saving, healing, gens, bones, taking a hit for someone who is on death hook, etc. So when I see a teammate just crouching around the map or hiding for majority of the match, it rubs me the wrong way. I shouldn't have to carry you on my back and then you being entitled, think I'm going to kill myself to let you get hatch. I will stay on hook and root for the killer to find you and kill you instead.

    Now if you're actually a good teammate who did their part during the match and things just didn't go our way, thats fine. No problem dying on 2nd hook to give you a chance.

    Its just the teammates that do very little or if they contribute to their team dying (like dive bombing unhooks) that makes me go 'Hey, you know what. You don't deserve to escape over the other 3 of us who did gens, got safe unhooks and heals, ran the killer, etc while you hid/ran around the map'.

    Also just finished a match where 3 of us got out with 18-19k and the 4th teammate barely scratched 12k. Just makes me wonder what the hell you were doing the entire match.

    Lol, my match was on Midwich also. Never give into their stupidity.

    Eh, I remember being slugged and finding the hatch, then the claudette refusing to die and being really pissed about that... so I kinda understand the rage.

    But in the end, it's just a game and I should of just accepted the loss of points.

    After finding the DbD discord, I'll never have to solo queue and potentially get paired up in a 'every man for themselves' kinda game. I'm happy to suicide in SWF even with strangers from the discord, but not with strangers straight from the fog.

    Hatch just feels and looks so selfish to me. It's hard not to attempt some griefy behavior when you see someone across the map WAIT for your death and not do a thing. If I'm on hook, sure I'll just stop struggling just to move on to my next game (what is 1min and 200bp for struggling vs one full game?), but if I'm slugged, you bet I'm crawling away and looking for it myself even if there's no chance I'd find it lol.

    When I'm on my second hook phase, I just spam my space-bar regardless of the situation.

    Got to get that small amount of BP. 😅

    The funniest bit was that it was a Trapper and the killer never camped, so there was ample opportunity. One of them said to me "Use your brain", to which I told them I did, which was how they died :D

    It is definitely interesting seeing how petty some people become in this game. The lengths some people go to to try and one-up someone else in-game is pretty funny. Like survivors staying at the gate and leaving just before you're about to hit them out, or staying on hook when there's only 2 of you left.
