    So its fair to thr first guy caught that hes getting camped out of the game? Shows you dont play survivor.

    Also its hard to counter it solo when your teammates sit around the hook. Theres literally nothing I can do to make them play better. I can only control my own actions.

    So its best to play SWF becausr you can agree to ignore a camping killer....but then people like you and wolf etc run to the forums screeching about how SWF needs to be removed from the game.

    You killers mains want to have your cake and eat it too. Dont want SWF but also hold solo survivors accountable for the actions of their team and whennthey complain yoi just tell them "deal with it"

    Yes, it is fair. The Killer had to find a Survivor, win the chase, then deal with any potential bodyblockers, flashlights, etc., just to get them on the hook. At that point, the Killer has every right to capitalize on his catch. Shows you don't play Killer.

    It's easy to counter it solo. Repair gens, find hatch, leave. If you're the one on the hook, find out what you did wrong (yes, because you are the one who made mistakes, or else you wouldn't have lost) and learn from it so that you can play better.

    Yes, playing SWF is easier than playing solo. Practically having wallhacks and a semi-hive mind is always easier than playing by yourself. Very few people say SWF needs to be removed; most just say that they need nerfs to compensate for the obvious advantage of being omniscient.

    Again, I'm not a Killer main. If you intend to talk to a Killer main, you're quoting the wrong person. Try reading our names, maybe you won't be confused that way. I am Orion.

    Ok so killer camps and both my other teammates sit around the hook. 

    Thats on me. I need tk play better to fix that lmfao sure its all under my control

    Im done with you. You just pass the blame to excuse lame behaviour like all thr other salty killer mains here who beg for buffs every day

    If you die to a camper, yes, that is 100% on you. Either you ######### up and wound up on the hook, or you ######### up by not rushing gens and getting the hatch. Either way, you made mistakes.

    That's actually the point of builds. Builds are meant to counter stuff that makes you struggle the most, no one is suposed to be able to counter everything.
    Create a build around your main weaknesses and/or necessities and use the skills to counter the rest.

    Very true but quite ironically, most Survivors never use perks that actually help them to counter the strongest Killers in the game. They use the same basic crap from early 2018 and think it will help them win. DS and Sprint Burst when everyone is playing Nurse, Billy, Spirit. Self Care when everyone is running Sloppy Butcher. Still relying on pallet looping against Killers that aren't even affected by pallets that much.

    Of course they think Killers are too strong. They basically try to beat a rock with scissors because everything else looks weak on paper, without realizing that paper > rock (oohhh that line).

    @PiiFree
    I use DS, SB and all that stuff when i got the daily of being chased by the killer for 2 minutes.
    If not, i use kindred, bond, open handed and small game. Personally i think information is the strongest weapon a survivor can get and it's been a really solid build so far.

    I prefer Premonition, Dark Sense, Iron Will, and Urban Evasion. Information on one side and stealth on the other.

    It has nothing to do with not being able to beat them you toxic person, its the fact that its as dull as watching paint dry. Why dont they try getting good? Spirit can be hard to use fsir enough, so a lot just dont use her power to chase they simply use it to camp the hook instead. Its sad.

    I didn't call you anything and I'm not a Killer main, so clearly you're thinking of someone else.

    So a Survivor decides to farm you for points, but the Killer is the one at fault? Walk me through your thought process.

    If you're not having fun with this game, you should switch to something else. I hear Civilization is good.

    Because the killer wont leave. So the survivors wait until the first stage is almost up then think "ah screw it" and run in anyway.

    Yeah the survivors would be better off gen rushing but the killers are starting the problems by refusing to leave the hook.

    Besides its pretty crappy to ask survivors to just let that person die and not trg to help them. Plus some get fed up and suicide on hook or D/C which leaves the killer free to camp the next guy.

    Why do people always try to push this on survivors? Some rush hooks and yes thats their fault but sometimes they wait and wait and the killer never leaves.

    Because its the survivors fault for making camping a solid strategy and you just explained why.

    Oh and please dont do the "bring x perk" thing. We all know that excuse gets used for every issue with the game but you cant have a perk for everything with only 4 slots.

    But isn't that what survivor say to killer all the time?
    Problem with gen rush? Bring Ruin.
    Problem with pallets? Bring BS.
    Problems with items? Bring FD.
    etc.

    If they made ranks actually matter and added a rank reward we'd probably see a lot less DC's. That said it's "being worked on" by the team for maybe a year+ now...

    camping and tunneling rates are insane.

    Played about 20 games yesterday.

    I think maybe 3/4 of them tops had killers who stepped more than 20m away from the hook lmfao

    I played 21 today, and only 1 camper and thats cause exit gates were powered. Camping is really little now, it's tunneling that's a problem.

    I've been seeing more on both ends, too. At one point I had a handful of games in a row where the killer would DC randomly, even when they were winning.

    Sounds like network instability or a game crash.

    Was in green ranks when I posted this now I'm in red ranks and honest to gods the DC rates increased

    You mean where the killer walks away to just on the edge of terror radius and hides behind a wall to bait an unhook, then immediately comes running back to tunnel?

    just because a survivor farms another off a hook in front of a killer, it doesn't mean the killer must capitalize on the event.  unless of course, they are desperate.

    I'm not trying to do anything. I'm succeeding at explaining that it's not the Killer's fault if Survivors decide to farm each other, and it's not on the Killer to make it right. Survivor mains need to get their ######### together instead of blaming the guy who's actually playing well.

    The Killer isn't the one getting his teammates killed. He's simply capitalizing on bad plays made by the other team. That's playing well.

    They're ignoring the main point.

    The survivor waits but the killer won't leave. The person on the hook is seconds way from going into the struggle stage so the survivor unhooks anyway as there is nothing to lose.

    Somehow it's the survivors fault for making risky unhooks....even thought they wait and the killer has no intention of leaving.

    The killer causes this situation by patrolling around tethered to the hook for the full 2 minutes. Then try to blame it on survivors LOL

    You could also... y'know, not rescue. Just because you want to do something doesn't mean you should be able to, especially when the guy you're supposed to fear is right there. You're playing the weaker role. Act like it.

    I personally don't rescue when the killer is stood right there, others do.

    End of the day it is a videogame, try to have fun with chases rather than sitting around a hook.

    Oh and stop trying to shift the blame. The killer causes the situation by refusing to move. Its a tactic bad players use because they cant catch survivors.

    The Survivor causes the situation by rewarding the bad tactic, turning it into a useful tactic. Stop trying to shift the blame.

    I swear, only Survivor mains could blame hook farming on the Killer instead of their greedy, vulturous teammates.

    Are you serious?
    You think that's how a killer should play?
    Just watch the survivor make bad plays and let them get away with it?
    So the survivor show no "fear"(respect?) of the killer and rescue right beside him and he should show "mercy" and let the rescued go to take on the much harder chase?
    WHY?
    Just to make survivor happy?
    And in the end he will get tbagged at the gate and get an "gg ez baby killer" in the after match chat??

    Context matters though. If there are still 5 gens and Ruin up and you already have a hook on EVERYONE you can afford to be merciful. The problem is, too many killers are so hungry for a 4k they won't show mercy at all, even when it's pretty clear they are going to 3k/4k regardless. If the survivors are actually doing gens and totems, then it's a different story, and yes you should punish that.

    This is how it was during the Halloween event. NO ONE did gens, everyone just rushed plants for the first week then let themselves die on hooks. Killers still brought pink mori's and tunnel/camped survivors really hard even though nothing was getting done. It was so sweet then to see all the boosted killers get their comeuppance the following week after everyone got their vials, and survivors gen rushed the crap out of every killer to make up for the previous week. You could easily tell killers that just sweated through event trials where the survivors basically gave them a 4k.

    Point is, if it's a game where you NEED to sweat, fine. But if it's a game where it's pretty obvious no one will escape then you can easily give out some freebies for more BP and fun chases. Unless you actually find tunneling/camping fun to do, in which case carry on, but I can't fathom how anyone can find that fun to do as killer. I'd rather do my taxes with pencil and paper.

    How often do you see the first scenario happen?
    The reality -at least in mid to high rank matches- is Ruin gone, 2 (maybe 3) gens done, first victim on the hook, disrespectful player with flashlight in your face trying to do bad bait for his buddy, who's lunchbox sticks out behind a tree.

    I think it is annoying for both survivors and killers. If you're going to give a killer a free 3000bp then wouldn't they give it to the survivors too? It's just as annoying for either.

    I see it often enough for me to be considerate of other player's experience and not immediately start try-harding. Rank 1 survivors aren't all amazing you know. A lot of them actually suck.

    Likewise I see games as survivor where the whole team just gen rushes like crazy and the killer barely gets a hook. I'll usually go out of my way to NOT gen rush unless I feel like I have to. I do my 1 gen solo for my Lightbringer, then focus on totems, saves, heals, chests, chases, whatever. When I run my No Mither FIght Club build I will just give myself to a killer that had a game like that at the end. I did a gen and had like 3 saves and 2 long ass chases. I'm going to pip live or die, so what.

    Also just because someone uses a FL and makes attempts to save another survivor doesn't make them disrespectful. Wait until after the game ends to see if they disrespect you or not, don't just assume. I mean it is in their best interest to keep each other alive as long as possible, and they do get points for doing this stuff. Like I don't get how killers get mad when survivors body block. That's a free 10 points on Benevolence, and like 500 BP for altruism (not sure here). So hell yea if I can afford to take a hit I totally will, doesn't mean I'm being toxic though. I'm just doing what a survivor SHOULD do.

    You shouldnt bring the halloween event

    Dude it was easy AF to get event hooks especially when survivors would often let you kill them so they can get their next vial faster. OMG survivors used DS and body blocked my hook, what else is new? It's not at all comparable to camp/tunnel/mori someone since they weren't planning to escape anyway. There really was only so much they could do to stop you from getting the hook. Run Iron Grasp and Agi (now also Mad Grit) and you shouldn't have a problem.

    And really Boiled Over? If that perks gives you trouble as killer then IDK what else to say to you.

    1. That is not the "job" of the killer.
    2. If YOU are so godly, fine, for the rest of the 98% of all player that is not an option.
    3. Survivor mostly do not do that, instead they come straight to the forum to ask for punishments.

    It has nothing to do with not being able to beat them you toxic person, its the fact that its as dull as watching paint dry. Why dont they try getting good? Spirit can be hard to use fsir enough, so a lot just dont use her power to chase they simply use it to camp the hook instead. Its sad.

    I didn't call you anything and I'm not a Killer main, so clearly you're thinking of someone else.

    So a Survivor decides to farm you for points, but the Killer is the one at fault? Walk me through your thought process.

    If you're not having fun with this game, you should switch to something else. I hear Civilization is good.

    just because a survivor farms another off a hook in front of a killer, it doesn't mean the killer must capitalize on the event.  unless of course, they are desperate.

    Of course the killer is desperate if he takes advantage out of a survivor missplay.

    Are you serious?
    You think that's how a killer should play?
    Just watch the survivor make bad plays and let them get away with it?
    So the survivor show no "fear"(respect?) of the killer and rescue right beside him and he should show "mercy" and let the rescued go to take on the much harder chase?
    WHY?
    Just to make survivor happy?
    And in the end he will get tbagged at the gate and get an "gg ez baby killer" in the after match chat??



    it's called sportsmanship but i suppose you love hooks dropping when you are about to hook someone.  they play like that, then yes i'll drop all that but acting like a desperado garners no respect from me.

    Context matters though. If there are still 5 gens and Ruin up and you already have a hook on EVERYONE you can afford to be merciful. The problem is, too many killers are so hungry for a 4k they won't show mercy at all, even when it's pretty clear they are going to 3k/4k regardless. If the survivors are actually doing gens and totems, then it's a different story, and yes you should punish that.

    This is how it was during the Halloween event. NO ONE did gens, everyone just rushed plants for the first week then let themselves die on hooks. Killers still brought pink mori's and tunnel/camped survivors really hard even though nothing was getting done. It was so sweet then to see all the boosted killers get their comeuppance the following week after everyone got their vials, and survivors gen rushed the crap out of every killer to make up for the previous week. You could easily tell killers that just sweated through event trials where the survivors basically gave them a 4k.

    Point is, if it's a game where you NEED to sweat, fine. But if it's a game where it's pretty obvious no one will escape then you can easily give out some freebies for more BP and fun chases. Unless you actually find tunneling/camping fun to do, in which case carry on, but I can't fathom how anyone can find that fun to do as killer. I'd rather do my taxes with pencil and paper.



    exactly.

    Serious? "Sportsmanship", in a horror survival game that is based on slasher movies?
    The evil incarnate, psycho, serial killer should act like a "good sportsman"?

    Well if you want to go down that route...

    In most horror movies the killer chases their victim. They don't just sit around waiting.
