,,You should treat others like you want to be treated.." But what if..

No one EVER treats me like i want?

Since the event started it feels like i have absolutly NO CHANCE of getting more than 1 kill if i dont play my Nurse or one of my other Mains. Even then the game is extremly hard since the event started.


So i am still trying to get my adepts again on some killers like Pig.

For the love of everything, i CANT play pig. I just cant.

But when i played her, and tried countless of times to get the adept, i always played nice.

I never tunneled, always TRIED to went for the rescuer (Damn unhooked guys of course tried again to bodyblock me with BT and DS, its so annoying) and they still tbagged and taunted me at every single possibility.

Every. Single. Match.

And its ALWAYS like that.

Maybe 1 match out of 100 i get survivors who play nice without being toxic at every situation.


So i am asking.. Is it still worth it being nice to them? Should i just stop and tunnel and camp the ######### out of them? Should i tbag as ghostface while they bleed out?


I honestly dont think its worth it being nice anymore, when everything you get is toxic anyway.

    Play however you want, as long as it's within the rules. Everyone else does it too.


    Just for the record, it's "treat", not "threat". "Threat" means that someone is asserting that they will cause injury (or some other negative effect) to you.

    You can play however you want.

    If you go for adept, you do have to spread hooks. Just accept it's a fact of DbD life.

    And survivors have to play extra hard during the event, because they can't get crowns if they don't escape. Again, they have to accept it and adapt.

    No, it goes both sides. I just told from MY experience.

    I think there's a difference between playing nice amd playing fair.

    Playing fair is playing within the rules, without mocking the opponent and deliberately ruining their experience (i.e.: proper face-camping, which is actually a poor tactic to use anyway!).

    Playing nice is giving them the hatch when you don't need to.

    Remember you need to enjoy the game. It is fine to put yourself first, especially if you have an achievement to get. Just don't let the others turn you into a monster.

    It´s a fair question what you are doing. A dilemma.


    As Solo Q player, I´d say that I really appreciate when a killer is not intentionally tunneling and proxycamping. I don´t do t-bag and say "gg wp" or "thanks for not tunnel". As you say, there are times when 1 teammate just farm you in killers face and is nice when killer ignores u and goes for rescuer.


    But, if you are playing vs SWF they probably will play tricky with those perks u said.

    I remember 1 game playing huntress where i was demolishing survivors. I softed my game and take bad deccisions on purpose as I´m a compassive killer. 3 or 4 scaped. Did they say "gg" or thanks? Nope. 1 of them did t-bag and wrote EZ on end game chat.

    Well, trying to get adept and being nice are two things that just don't mix, in my opinion, because you need to kill everyone, so...

    Since we are in the middle of an event, why not just play for points for now and then resume trying to get adept after the event?

    As for the way survivors act, you are right, sometimes people can be very toxic and when I play killer that happens too, not all the time and not everyone tbags or tries to annoy you for no reason, so don't let them turn you toxic, because there are some good players too.

    If a specific player is being aggressive toward you, I think it's fine to respond with a proportional amount of aggression, if that's what you feel like you want to do. If you don't feel like that's what you want to do, and the solution you'd actually like is a community where we're not toxic to each other and we can play a game together in peace, without anyone getting bullied... I want that, too, but I'm not sure it's going to happen.
