You ever just.... ruin your day / night by playing DBD? I sure did today
Today's matches were.... very, very interesting...
1st Match -> Wraith. Very toxic. Loved to tunnel the unhooked person. Laggy hits
2nd Match -> Deathslinger. We 3-gen ourselves. 80% of the time he went for Window / Pallet shots. We spent 7-10+ min trying to finish 3 gens on Coal Tower. Me and bill eventually gave up. The map spawned 3 T&L walls, against a Deathslinger... Thank you BHVR.... Says "GG EZ" in the end. Has a VAC ban on account.
3rd Match -> Spirit - Stridor. Was trying to do the chest challenge. At least it was haddonfield.... I got tunneled multiple time without success. The other person wasn't so lucky. When we got away she would look for us in the area for 1-2 min. She would drop chase to find us. She was not bothered by the fact that gens were flying. NOED in the end, kills 2 more teammates. Fantastic.... I get away by finding a key in a chest with plunderer's. Bless RNG
4th Match -> Trapper - He sent us to Gideon Meat Plant for some reason. He loses the game amazingly.... Not sure what he was thinking.
5th Match -> Trickster. Finally. After 100 matches... I finally get to face one.... I try to do a Mettle of Man Build. My team dies in 2-3 min due to bum rushing the hook 24/7. I at least run him for 2-3 min allowing 2 of my teammates to finish 1 gen... I get to use Mettle at least. Killer was rank 5, I was rank 3, my other teammates were rank 8-10-16
Regarding Trickster and this being my 1st time ever facing him since his release... I have NO IDEAB how he landed some shots. The projectiles clearly looked like they were missing or they were invisible... I was gettinf downed by invisible projectiles.... Not a fun first experience
6th Match -> Try to use mettle again. It's a Wraith. He brings Franklin's Demise.... Get hooked, reached 2nd stage then tunneled out of the game since all of the pallets were used. Teammate stole my medkit
7th Match -> Try to use mettle again. It's Deathslinger. My team dies in 2 min. I was matched with a rank 10, rank 17 and a ######### rank 19. The killer was rank 7. My whole team goes down in the first couple of min. Used syringe on downed teammate and sacrificed my FULL purple medkit with the syringe. It bugs out, never reviving the teammate. I run for 2 min with DS on my arse. I get shot trough the wall and dragged around...
I should mention every Mettle of Man attempt involved a -> Purple Medkit + 16 charges addon & Styptic / Syringe
8th Match -> It's a plague. I try to use mettle again.... She also has franklins. Not only do you spit on me by the sheer fact ur playing plague and I'm trying to do a Mettle of man build, but you also took a ######### on my chest by using Franklin's. Random teammate steals my medkit. Get hooked once, get hooked again and die on 2nd hook. Teammates forgot about me.
9th Match -> Spirit, with Stridor again. Got tunneled.
10th Match -> Plague, again. Was trying to do Mettle build again.
11th Match -> Spirit. Stridor again. We lose again
12th Match -> Bubba. Got proxy camped so hard my teammates all died in the first 1-2 min. Game freezes, messes my Dead hard. Teleports me back. Game freezes again, messed my DS skill check. Well screw me I guess for trying to play the game. Bubba was rank 10, I was the only rank 3 in the match while my teammates were all green ranks. I did not expect bamboozle on Bubba which cost me a fast down in an area with only 1 window and no pallets or anything else nearby.... Not mentioning I was using No Mither to spice things up.
13th Match -> Ghostface. The man was rank 17 on Mother's Dwelling...
14th Match -> Nurse. Addons for Blink recharge & Blink range. Agitation + Starstruck. You can tell how that went. She also used a map offering, sending us to Autohaven... I was honestly thinking to AFK in a locker and make a sandwich at that point.
15th Match -> Spirit. Stridor again.
16th Match -> Spirit. Stridor AGAIN
17th Match -> Spirit. Stridor. On Midwich. I vent in chat. At least she's sympathetic towards me and for some reason apologizes? Calms me down and says goodbye after a nice & calming chat. Extremely rare to see. This was my final match for the night.
The amount of tunneling & Proxy camping I've experienced and saw tonight... is unreal.... I've seen ONE Decisive Strike in all of my matches.

That sounds grim. I usually just quit once I've had a few bad matches bc they seem to come in patterns.

Yep. Sounds like my games. I stopped playing Solo survivor like, days ago. I just can't take the BS anymore lol. Constant camping/proxy camping/tunneling. They all seem to be able to get to red ranks doing that, so I guess that's the game now. Also, a bizarre uptick in survivor working with Killer scenarios.
There's no point anymore for me, so I'm just trying to play Killer now.

I must be the weird one. I can barely manage to play 5 matches even if I'm constantly winning. I couldn't imagine playing 17 matches if I'm having a bad time.

Your mistake was playing solo for more than one game per day. It's a terrible experience more often than not.
Survivor is only really playable with friends if you want to escape.

Some days ain't DbD days.
A lot of days ain't Solo days.

So a regular day in DBD huh. Well solo affects your experience I see but the killers no matter what will do the same. If they tunnell you first they will tunnel you so bad luck I guess. You need to find some good teammates from solo or do my tactic play killer and ask the good survivors to team up. Trust me the best way to see a survivor is to play againts him.

It happens.
Sometimes you just gotta remind yourself that no matter what happens it's gonna be all Dwight in the end.

Same experience today. Played over 15 matches and no escape. Tried all sorts of builds. Self centered ones, highly altruistic ones, gen rush ones etc. In each match, I can't get past 3 gens done. I could be looping the killer 10, 30, 120 seconds and still no gen is done, since everyone is hiding in bushes.
Absolute pain. After many years of gaming, this was my first time I ended up punching the table and alt f4.

I'm going to assume your in red ranks. Down here I've only come across tunnelers and campers every so often.

This game just might not be for you.
Did you not find anything fun in any of these games? No good loops? Funny plays? Challenges completed? I mean we all have a run of bad games from time to time, but you seem to be dwelling on the negatives of your experiences.
Although, your run of Spirit games seems unfun.

i had to deal with this a few days ago, because of the matchmaking bug the pools the system can pick from have been absolutely knocked out of shape

I mean they already were but now even more.

Regardless of the tunneling and camping (which is lame and frustrating), if all my matches were Spirit, Deathslinger, and Wraith I wouldn't play survivor for the rest of the day at a minimum. That sounds absolutely miserable.

Thats alot of Stridor Spirits.....
Anyways my Billy games got me so angry that I took a break from DBD, don't even have it updated for hotfix yet
2 -
Nope, cause I'm smart enough to stop playing if something is frustrating me.

I'm not! :D
OP: One of these days one of those nights is going to absolutely break me. I took a break in January after a particularly awful night. For whatever reason, my desire to keep playing this game has been slowly whittling away since then (it wasn't uncommon for me to sink a solid two hours every night after work in this game and now I essentially hop on to do my Dailies and then walk away again) so I imagine it might be one more awful night filled with Seal Team SWF or killers who let you bleed out instead of just hooking you to finish the damn match or whatever griefing jerk coming in to ruin my night to maybe knock me over the edge of uninstalling and not coming back.
It's a fun game but the amount of people who seem deadset on not only winning but actively making your match as absolutely miserable as humanly possible is chipping away at my desire to keep playing...
