Thoughts on non-farmers

non-farmers referring to killers that dont play the game but also dont farm.

everyone gets less points no fun to be had with the m1 simulator no chases and with longer queue times it feels like a waste to wait for it

yall go through this? what are your thoughts on it

    I am confused as to what you mean. Non-farmers? So killers who chase/hook/kill?

    Uhhh huh?

    I'm gonna assume you mean either AFK killers or killers who just let you do gens but dont hit you at all just walk around doing nothing.

    They're annoying, yes. No one likes that.

    So afk people? Yeah they are probably doing it for shards or just to depip as for some reason BHVR made AFKing the best way to earn shards.

    to clarify for the people who didnt understand

    people who walk around and stare at you but dont chase dont attack or hit gens but arent afk

    a killer who chase hook and kill would be playing the game but if you read the original post I mentioned people who dont play

    they (to quote spongebob) stand there menacingly

    Well - we call those AFK Killers - not non-farmers. Non-farmers insinuates a killer who chases/hooks/kills.

    AFK stands for away from keyboard

    if theyre following you they arent afk if they are called afk then thats mis-labeling

    I never encountered such killers.

    Regular killers, afk-killers, farmers, yes, but not the one you discribe.

    However, i had such people as teammates in solo queue, just wandering around (in one case walking circles in the basement, in one game a 2-swf, one with a key and one with a map, waiting for the other two to finish gens or get found) and taking in the scenery. I understand it with new and reworked maps for the first few days, but a lot of gen-allergics want to play survivor neverthless.

    But again, never saw that in a killer.

    i have encountered non farmers myself and have (kindoff, i would let survivor pallet stun me) been a "non farmers", i assume unless they are AFK the killers wants to get to next game quickly, i have "non-farmed" either because i wanted get rid of rift quest quickly (only 2 times) or because someone DC'd and i dont want to spend 30 min on farming. as for AFK killers, some are trying to derank others are trying to farm iridescent shards.
