Survivors splitting up and doing a gen each one is bullshit

There are no gens in the corner of the map, unless you're on Swamp. Plus, it does not take 80 seconds to find a survivor. The moment you spawn in, a generator patrol will ensure that you're going to find a survivor, and as long as you can down a survivor in less than 30 seconds (if not, get a lot of pallets out of the way), then you're good.

But that rarely happens. Just as how killers don't play at 100% efficiency, survivors don't play at 100% efficiency. There are going to be mistakes and bad judgements. There are going to be Claudettes blending in the corner for 5 minutes. 

I at the other hand have many matches were i need to do three gens and sometimes even that is not enough. Or i start a gen at the start of the match and another survivor joins me after 1 minute and i need to ask me: what did he do this entire minute and why does he need to come to my gen when there are 7 available.

But enough ranting. The real problem is not survivor being efficient. The first problem is that at the start of the match you have zero pressure. This needs to be solved with a game mechanic. Then when you have one down, chase one and one rescues, only one survivor does gens. But theres the second problem. Many maps make it impossible for the majority of the killer to down good survivor fast enough to maintain this pressure. So we need map reworks.

run corrupt intervention :)

Nah. As killer you always see WHERE the generators are first. There’s always 3-4 clustered together somewhere. As killer as long as you make it so there are 3 gens clustered together when 1 gen is left then the survivors are screwed... Unless the killer doesn’t apply enough pressure, makes critical mistakes, fails to snowball, etc. The game should pick up when there are less generators remaining on the map. When there is 1 gen left you need at least 1 person dead... If all 4 are alive by the time 2 gens remain you’re probably going to lose as killer unless you go for a snowball, or camp they die ⛺️. In Red Ranks I usually see 2-3 pop within 3 minutes. The last 2 can take like 10 minutes or even more sometimes. A killer can skip their way to the generators when they’re clustered, never giving survivors time to work on them. You’re not beating any efficient player with a mobile, or warping killer when there is a “Gen Triangle” left on the map. Billy, Oni (Rage), Spirit, Nurse, Blight, FREAKN HAG!!! Especially if they’re running Pop. 😂

I do not like plague either lol, I looked away when I grinded her (because she is disgusting) to level 30 and didn't use her once.

That type of play should be encouraged. If more survivors actually played with an ounce of efficiency, the devs would have a better idea of where the game sits in terms of balance.

As to playing around it: Do you have Corrupt Intervention permanently locked in your load out? It should be. Save for a select few maps, you will never stand a chance against an efficient team without it.

Okay... I'm gonna guess from the fact that you have only 80 posts that you're not a massively experienced player. I could be wrong; either way it's fine.

The first thing to consider is that unless you're playing a strong killer with good regression perks you're almosy certainly going to lose some gens early on. That's perfectly acceptable. Killers start out weak with all 4 survivors healthy and all the pallets still up. As the game continues and you break pallets and exert pressure you'll get stronger. I can't even begin to count the number of matches I've seen from both roles where the killer loses 3-4 gens early and then stages a comeback.

As far as splitting up on gens go this is one of survivors' best tactics and it's a major blessing that so many teams don't realize this. Discordance is one of my favorite perks and the matches where it rarely goes off are by far my most stressful. It's not OP though, it's just smart gameplay and it can be countered.

As people have already said, the best strat is to make a 3-gen - that is to say, manipulate the match so that the final gens are all clustered together and easy to defend. You do this by using your game sense and information perks to figure out which gens are being worked on and deciding which ones you can give up and which ones you need to defend.

It's by no means easy and it takes practice and experience. Try to choose gens that are both close together and in areas where you've broken a lot of pallets. It's not foolproof, as it relies on your ability to catch survivors quickly and know when to commit to chase and when to break off and defend your gens. It is very doable though. It's easy to feel helpless when your opponents get good RNG or play well. Just keep your cool and do your murder thing and the rest will fall into place.

Seems like your issue is less about survivors splitting up on gens (which was the subject of your post) and more about survivors using keys.

Keys are bulls**t, don't get me wrong, but they have some counterplay. The hatch only appears when the number of gens completed is 1 greater than the number of survivors remaining. You can keep the hatch from spawning by simultaneously keeping survivors alive (by slugging them all) and preventing them from completing enough gens. It's very hard and stressful and it's not always doable, but it is a possibility.

The other thing to consider is that SWFs using keys in such an efficient matter are a relative rarity. It sucks but it's easy to disregard. I don't even count it as a victory for their team. It's a consolation prize they get after not completing their objectives.

The devs made keys much easier to see in the lobby, so if keys piss you off that much you can always dodge them. Quick switching to keys is a thing, and it is very scummy, but I see it happen waaaaaaaay less than it used to on the NA servers. If they loot a key from a chest then good for them. Like it or not, luck plays a pretty big role in this game. They just got lucky.

lol

I'd play that game mode. Dead by daylight meets octodad
