I Have Never Felt This Frustrated While Playing A Video Game
I feel like this event is breeding a lot of toxicity. Every game is a sweatfest now with Teabagging survivors who either bring keys or get lucky enough to find a key and Teabag over hatch in my face right before they escape. For only having 400 hours in this game I don't feel like I'm bad. I'm currently a rank 1 killer and under normal circumstances I can do pretty decent at red ranks. Everyone is brining a key now and it seems like the only way to win is to slug multiple survivors once two or more gens are done, which is not my playstyle because I know it's not fun for survivors. I also had a match on "the game" against a very good team and lost horribly. The game ended with one person pointing out how badly I did. When I responded with "you don't have to be so mean" they responded with "okay I feel bad its just because you were playing Freddy" and immediately followed that up with "JK you suck". I was only playing Freddy because I like A Nightmare on Elm Street and I'm trying to complete an old tomes challenge that requires me to get three iridescents in devout. Never has a game made me this miserable in a single day. Granted it was probably a bad idea to engage the player at all but I felt worn down after a day of bad games and just felt defeated. Why do people feel the need to make other people feel like trash with what little power they get from winning in a video game? I want to uninstall this game so bad rn except I have nothing else I like to play as much as this game. I genuinely hope the key nerf comes soon. Is anyone else having a bad time during the anniversary as killer or is it just me? I should also add that I try not to tunnel, camp or play toxic, so I feel like the toxicity I am receiving isn't warranted.

Yeah, some people are like that.
DBD does hardly anything to punish toxic BHVR, and the game gives a lot of wiggle room for survivors to act like trolls.
Most you can do is take it on the nose and move on.

I just turn my messages off. The only people that act like that are people that only play one side. Its lame. We all have bad games.

I agree this event has brought out the worst. I have met so many toxic players since the event started that I have stopped playing nice. I started the event by trying to 2 hook everyone whether I got a sacrifice or not and it started out well. Then the toxic players came out to play and as of a couple of hours ago I'm not playing nice anymore, they have worn me down.
So they have turned me from what they want, someone who doesn't camp and tunnel, into what they are always complaining about. Now I will not hesitate to get someone out of the match if I feel I need to.
It sucks for those survivors that just want chill games but imo they have the toxic survivors to thank for that. So my apologies to the chill survivors.
On top of that the rng is so bad over my last dozen games that my hex is always out in the open and hook spawns being ridiculous on the bigger maps, without offerings too.

Hey, man, I said it before and I will say it again, you ever stop to consider why someone playing a 4v1 game is toxic? Maybe, just maybe it is because they are projecting their insecurities on you and could never dominate a player in a PVP game that involved more than running away. Lol. Seriously, all they can do is click a flashlight or squat. They are still your bottom.
Do people hate Freddy? I usually get very little bagging when I am on him. But then again, maybe that is because I can actually play him. My Pyramid Head is low tier. It feels like they can just stop moving, watch for the timing, and then take a step to the left to dodge. Landing it is the most exciting thing I have personally experienced in any of the other competitive games I have played. Nothing is as satisfying. Especially because that is when hoards of survivors try and BM my baby triangle...

Thank you for saying this, this actually made me feel a lot better. Normally I don't let stuff like this get to me but today has just been probably the worst day for matches I have ever had, and eventually it got to me. I feel the same way about Blight that you feel about pyramid head, when I get a Lethal Rush hit it feels amazing but I definitely struggle with it on some maps. I'm normally pretty good with Freddy, I just sometimes struggle competing with survivors who have thousands of hours when I'm not even at 500. I'm sure with practice and more hours I'll get to the point where I can hold my own against them, I just need to keep playing.

I have said this before and I maintain it. Playing as Killer against a group of toxic SWF is literally the worst gaming experience I have had.

Yea people suck. However freddy is another killer that no one likes especially as survivor. But they have no right to call you bad for what killer you play.

But you'll come back, because you can be stronger.
Hatred and frustration is the fuel and base of this game. That's what makes it addictive. Kind of souls like energy.
