massive spike in toxic survivors?
killers, you know who im talking about. clicky click flashlights, dead hard, decisive strike, sprint burst, lithe, the whole nine yards. it wasnt too bad until recently, whether its from me hitting green ranks (but still against red ranks, thanks behaviour) or the free to play stuff going on right now, but survivors are hella toxic recently. anyone else getting this?

I dont consider any of those things "toxic" and theyve always been prevelant

Honestly I think it's the Event
Nice survivors get face camped/tunneled by some jerk killer who is being a jerk because of the event. The survivors get irked and bitter and start taking it out on killers with being annoying clickity click jerks. They do annoying clickity click jerk things to a killer who is trying to be nice during the event, which irks them and makes them bitter so they start taking it out on survivors. A nice survivor gets irked and bitter and...
and now everyone is an A-Hole! :D

Using perks is not toxic.

Both sides are toxic towards the other, but the only difference is there is four survivors and one killer. There probably is no spike to my current knowledge, but it gives off an illusion of one.
While clicky clicky flashlight survivors are a nuisance, it is a viable strategy to get you to chase them, they are usually confident in their looping abilities or are experienced loopers. Paying no mind to them may waste their time trying to get your attention.

Massive spike in toxic and tryhard killers*

While true, sometimes it depends on the area of map. They are confident all right, too confident. That one pallet is only going to hold me for so long before I get a free hook.
If they clicky click near like the killer Shack, or somewhere with a double vault, I am gone. Lol.

That’s why I’ve been doing it. When the killer has started tunneling or not going after other people when I’m bodyblocklocking them I’ll clicky clicky and what not.

Majority of the list is perks. I guess using perks now is toxic.

using perks isn't toxic, flashlight spamming literally every 5 seconds is. That being said even when I purposely show survivors I want to farm and be nice they'll do their teabag toxic gate stuff with the flashlight spam

to all saying about using perks being toxic, i should rephrase: its less the perks themselves, but more so the purple / red rank 'gauntlet' of the big 4 meta perks made to just ruin a killers day. doesn't exactly help when I'm hovering in green ranks (or lower thanks to crashing) and i just wanna play a nicely back and forth game of dbd when suddenly 3 gens are done within a first minute, im being looped and click-clacked, next thing you know the gates are 99'd and your only hooked survivor has been unbreakable'd. just feels bad man.

The massive spike in killers is only because the event sucks for survivor so they are playing killer :p

Using lithe is toxic now? lol

This complaint really just boils down to the bad matchmaking. If you're green rank and can't handle red rank survivors that's the games fault for matching you with them not the survivors fault.

Probably because of all the toxic killers. The only thing I did to this killer was loop, got a few flashlight blinds and a few pallet stuns. He decided to camp me and smack me on the hook until I died (my first hook).

I'm seeing it from both sides, although most of the Survivor games I played today were pretty chill. I don't think I faced more than one or two sweaty Killers. Understandable if they sweat though, I'm up in the Reds again (ffs i need to derank).
Survivors have been pretty okay also. Only had one match where post-game was stupid entitlement upon "I didn't screw up. You XYZ'd so I died." type of garbage. It was pretty funny though. I went after the unhooker, left the hook to allow saves, and worked on learning the Killer (Trickster in this instance) but apparently that's not enough. Will have to reconsider my reasonable behavior and maybe work on becoming a "proper" Killer instead.
Side note. Main Event is absolutely great when you down someone and there's another Survivor standing right next to you begging to be slapped around. It's amazing how fast they get downed when you activate it.

Problem with killer is that you're alone and toxicity or bm is specifically aimed at you whilst with survivor there're 4 people sharing it if you know what I mean.
I would encourage people to play both sides it's helped me calm down a bit in terms of getting annoyed at toxic players - knowing that there are toxic killers as well helps you understand why survivors do it. Turns into an endless circle of blame though and nothing will stop it imo - just put up with it and try to remember the good games over the bad as hard as that is.
edit: also don't think using perks is toxic just the behavior of players

You've got a weird definition of toxic.
Stop taking every little thing a survivor does as an insult/negative.

Thats your problem. Youre playing the role of a supernatural serial killer. Youre not supposed to be nice, as long as you are theyll walk all over you and laugh about it

none of those things are toxic, they are part of the game, a perk is not toxic, nor is teabagging clicking or pointing, the only toxic thing about the game is the comments and chat where people say mean nasty things, anything thats in the game and not abusing bugs is not toxic

What's toxic is them not doing gens and just hiding, Taking the game hostage is infact toxic
