Kill Switch update: We have temporarily Kill Switched the Forgotten Ruins Map due to an issue that causes players to become stuck in place. The Map will remain out of rotation until this is resolved.

Why are killers always tryharding when survivors DC/kill themselves on hook?

Title

It’s not fun knowing you have 1 teammate less and you need to complete 5 gens, (someone has to loop the killer in order to finish the gens) and open 2 exit gates. Why are you killer mains doing this?

and also: isn’t it annoying that survivors can never use fun builds? I wanted to try the Plunderer build, but I can’t use it because the killer is tunneling me of the hook or can’t loop cause I didn’t equip Iron Will. Killers are forcing us to run the same boring meta build 😤

    Honestly, most games someone DCS I try to be easier on the survivors or just start farming with them because I feel a bit bad when they just give up, but some games like if someone DCS or kills themselves on hook I just honestly want to play the game still because I'm very easy to convince to just stop playing like I'm trying and it's worst because I'm like awwwwwwww and feel really bad. :c

    It just happens a lot because people get angry easily and I honestly can't give up on trying all the games it just isn't that fun for me, but who knows I am not those killers you will have to ask them. >.<

    I'd rather just end the match quickly since it's not gonna be balanced anymore. Would you rather we farm for 20 minutes instead?

    Honestly It all depends on when they DC and how many

    If it's in the beginning... I'll go easier (still have to play the game)

    If it's after 2-3 gens are done... I'll let the rest of the survivors finish the rest of the gens and leave

    If it's when the Gens are done... No sympathy (Why would I let the other survivors go at that point... But if they get the doors open good for them)

    It depends on my mood.

    Usually I'll go out of my way to 2 hook the rest but sometimes i just want the game over with asapso i can get a real game.

    Why are you focussing your annoyance on the killer anyway? They aren't the ones who left you.

    Save your anger for those who actually deserve it

    it's killer's fault that he knwos where are you while you don't have iron will? Also what do you mean by tryharding?

    I just try and get the game over with since I'm already not gonna get my full emblem or maximum bloodpoint value.

    Why should the Killer care if your teammate RQ? Play normally, get as many points as you can, end the game faster so you can get into the next match which will more likely be fairer.

    It's not really the killer's fault. Theyre there to kill you after all.

    I always thought the gen count should reduce by 1 if someone DCs.

    I mean, the Killer can play however they want, even if one of your teammates leaves. They shouldn't have to adjust their playstyle for your teammate's anger issues or bad internet. It's really not too bad to try and win the game for either side when someone disconnects, I've actually escaped on many games with only two teammates at the start!

    Also, you can run fun builds if you're not focused on escaping every match. I typically run Iron Will every game since I hate hearing my Survivor whine constantly + it's nice to not be a beacon for the Killer when I'm injured, but I switch up the rest of my perks nearly every game! You don't need perks to escape matches, just play your best and get better at looping and movement!

    Why is it the opponent players fault that your teammates where crap.

    I love the way survivor players quit and it’s the killer who has to modify their game to make sure everyone has fun.

    Your fun is no one else’s responsibility other than your own.

    Attacking another player because you didn’t have fun is a you problem.

    If you want to leverage your ire anywhere then the people who DC are the culprits.

    I mean, I just play normally when a survivor dies early. Maybe because there is one less person on the trial that it makes it feel like we are try harding, since we are on the advantage. I won't play nice with survivors because I doubt that they would play nice with me if I was lagging real hard.


    And also: You can't use non meta perks as killers as well. Just try playing without gen defense and see 4 gens getting done in 4 minutes.

    That logic does go both ways, if you feel entitled to pretend as though the game wasn't severely imbalanced, they are entitled to talk trash about your character. It is a garbage thing to do, quite frankly. But I guess you need to get your feel good wins somehow. In a party game...

    I think a more appropriate title is:

    Why do my teammates kill themselves or dc for x reasons.

    I totally don't hold the lament configuration to counter the killer I just like the hooks catching me

  • pseudechis

    I would rather an imbalanced game just finish quick and move on. It’s only a game. I’m sorry my pragmatic answer has upset you but making assumptive personal attacks about playstyle and motivation is the exact thing I’m talking about.

    Nobody is responsible for my fun just as I’m not responsible for anyone else’s.

    You will have crap games, you have games where you feel it wasn’t fun, you’ll have people who’s motivation and play differs from yours but none of these things are an affront to you.

    The only person who can upset you over a game is you. Attacking another player because they didn’t alter their game to suit you is just a recipe for being angry at the game.

    There is no entitlement here just pragmatic thinking. No one is pretending the game wasn’t imbalanced. Expecting people to alter their play and getting angry at them for not is entitlement.

    Define try hard, cause usually I just kill the remaining people and usually (like 90% of the time) give someone hatch.

    Killer lobbies are usually longer and I don't speak for everyone, but I want to play the game. So if someone DC/kills themsevles on first hook, then that match is ruined for me, because at 5 gens its just unfair but I also don't want to spend the next 15-20 minutes farming to have to sit in queue for 10 minutes. Its much faster to just kill the other two and depending on how long it takes the last one to get hatch let them have it.

    Because it's not fun for the killer too, and it's better to finish the match asap so you can queue for the next.

    umm, maye cuz im the KILLER, and my job is to KILL you

    Killers find those games extremely boring. They can either farm or end the game quickly and move on. And you can use fun builds and win. Most people don't at high mmr because only meta builds are played.

  • PanicSquid

    Its a coin toss on whether or not I farm if the DC is before 1 gen is finished. Farming is boring. So the other option is I kill 2 and let the last one find hatch.

  • DatFastBoi
    DatFastBoi Member Posts: 455

    I usually do that whenever I want to get to the next game. I’m not trying to stay longer in a game where one survivor is dead at 5 gens

    Killer probably either doesn't care and always plays like this, or thinks: "This sucks, let's just get this over with ASAP."

  • Raptorrotas
    Raptorrotas Member Posts: 3,351

    Just outlast the other 2 "teammates" for the hatch. Its what happens at 2 remaining survivors anyways.

    This, i consider it more merciful to end a game than to turn it into a carebear bp farming fest.
