Please Don't Do This

Yesterday I was playing my last match of the night and I get hooked for the first time, no problem, cool. The Bill and Steve were across the map and Claudette was by me. The killer was nowhere near by (He had Rancor and I was obsession, one of the gens popped, he was near with Bill or the Steve), and the Claudette is crouching beside my hook, and slowly crouch walking to it.

It was against a Trickster, and because of Zesty's post, I noticed that lullaby type thing, and as soon as we started hearing it, Claudette grabs me off the hook. I ended up getting downed again later on, but while I was in the chase, I accidentally passed by Claudette who was crouch walking around the map, since our two teammates were on Xbox when I was in a safe spot I invited them both to a party.

I proceeded to ask if the Claudette had done any of the gens to which they said no, then paired that with she only got chased once. The killer ended up D/Cing cuz while I was chased, the other two knocked out gens.

Claudette was Rank 1 or 2, I thought it was bad matchmaking, but nope. I am Rank 4, Bill was Rank 3, and the Steve was Rank 14 (I think if I remember)

    I know Blendette's exist, but it's like, how did you get in red ranks barely helping, that's why I am actually excited to see the new rank system when implemented

    It's because they get evader emblem from being nearby the killer and not getting caught along with just doing hook rescues for benevolence, those are the players who irk me because they do totems and crouch walk the map without touching a gen and as long as all the gens aren't popped they'll attempt a hook rescue but other than that they're playing for hatch from the start and if everyone does the gens while they hide then they escape anyway through the gate if it makes it that far, I think getting chased should be required to pip up you shouldn't be able to hide and get evader points for someone else's hard work when they're getting chased and essentially get carried to higher ranks

    I'm glad that more people are (rightfully) complaining about players who don't actively contribute to the match or, at best, ONLY do rescues and deliberately avoid touching gens. I had three or four hatch campers yesterday, two of which were in a row, none of whom did anything to help in the match. Literally nothing. Just wait and hide, let everyone else die, get the hatch win.

    Four times in a two hour session, two of which followed one after the other. Let's just say that I'm not in the mood to see this ever again.

    Probably needed to complete the left behind challenge in the time it's annoying at the best of times but since that challenge you get people just chilling,working with killers and blending while doing nothing but totems all game they also like to key out early.

    I'm just hoping when the new MMR is properly implemented people get put with those on the same skill level/do the exact same thing. This will then allow for those survivors to (hopefully) realize they can't just escape every time just for unhooking and crouching away. Because if there's a whole team of them crouching around not doing anything it'll be considered holding the game hostage since they aren't doing gens or anything.

    Oh man I hate that challenge. I did finally get it when I plundered a key. Faced this poor Demogorgon who had two kills, but then the last two of us escaped through the hatch (I had an offering for it to spawn near the main building, cause I'm TERRIBLE at finding the hatch even with left behind). Could've also been a totem challenge. There's that one that requires you to cleanse FIFTEEN.
