    absolutely agree because there are so many idiotic killer and survivors here that it's almost shocking hearing half of the ######### they say and suggest to change for their own wishes instead of the games balancing system

    Because they shouldn’t be punishing long time players who have invested more than anyone. Also, it’s ######### to reward people who don’t put effort in.

    What do you expect when the game has two sides that deal with different issues and play 100% differently. That also doesn't account for all the people that only play one side of the game so they don't understand what the other side deals with. So they just think people that play the other side are the worst thing ever, or that the other side is OP and on and on. If more people took the time to play each side so they could get a view of what the whole game experience is, a lot more people would complain less and have a lot more compassion. Until then, expect people continue complaining about things that are not true and for people to continue to treat others terribly.

    Regardless, my point stands.

    Why did you teabag him in the exit gates after you thrashed him?

    He kept trying to wait out endgame with both black box / Bw.

    that and he failed to even try to get the endgame kill to work, tis why.

    i usually don't tbag. but when you have a blackward with 2 ultra rares. + Bw AND tried to get endgame kills and fail. then a tbag is needed,

    otherwise. i just leave,

    As a casual player, you arent understanding why Survivor meta is what it is.

    Is because those meta perks are so powerful, across 4 players Survivors (16 perks) vs 1 killer (4perks).

    Thus the gradient is, that Killers are the ones that have to select certain meta perks and playstyles, to counter a mix of 16 slots of meta perks in Survivors.

    Hands down, this restricts Killer perk selection WAAAY more than it does Survivor perks.

    So its thr potency of Survivor perks in 16 slots, that are making meta stale, vs 4 slots for one Killer.

    For example, if you dont slot BT, chances are, someone else has, and thus "cover" your selection of another perk.

    But for Killers, they dont have any redundancy, just the 4 perks they themselves bring into the Trial.

    Do you see?

    I agree massively. I've gotten to the point where I don't give my opinions on certain things because I don't want to get attacked by a certain side.

    Deathslinger changes had people going mad and I just thought "I couldn't be assed with this" and just kept quiet.

    I don't post all that often, but i've been a lurker on these forums for years including before I made an account. I can definitely say i've noticed a decrease in quality on these forums to put it nicely. I can even roughly date when I took notice, it that was around the time of the Resident Evil ptb/release.

    I would say to do what I try to still do, which is to remember the names of certain members and skip over their posts anytime you saw them. Can't really do that anymore, too much effort now as there are now too many to keep track of. I would like to clarify that i'm talking about the ones who clearly can't have a civil and mature discussion. The ones who are too far gone, too far up the rear of whatever side they main to ever give the other side the light of day.

    Yup the survivor vs killer mentality gets out of hand often.

    I'm personally enjoying the game a lot at the moment again, but it isn't the most varied game, so I also need to take some breaks from this game time and time again.

    But the new patch is also definitely looking interesting, perhaps adding a few new perks to the meta. I really hope they continue with these updtes because it would certainly help make this game feel stale less frequently.

    Okay.

    Why exactly was a teabag needed here?

    He went out of his way to win, but either got really unlucky or matched up against a group much better than him, who smashed him into the dirt.

    So again - why not just leave, and type something like 'ouch, bad luck man' in the post-game? That would have defused the situation. What you did made it so much worse.

  • Verconissp

    But what if they insulted me beforehand...

    Even if you weren't toxic. tbagging in a match, or ANY of the sorts, they'd still get on your ass about something,

    I even tried to offer help to the guy. yet still goes on about me being buried 6 feet into the ground. which would make him happy Fyi...

    Despite the little tbag... that barely did anything,

    (Oh and For The Record. i tried typing that to a survivor team as killer when i did a 5 gen lockdown as clown.. Yeah never again)

    Preach but other than that there is actually nothing you can do.

    If you played multiplayer games long enough you know how people are. Heck even irl things are ridiculous with all the things people are divided by.

    It won't get better but you can surround yourself with like minded people sometimes when you seek peace. Some video games can be fun with friends only and really help you feeling good.

    Dude it is a casual game, if you take it serious and stuff. That is a you situation you cant expect them to cater to you when it is aimed to be CASUAL. You arent being punished because you play hard. Dont be silly

    These topics are so obnoxious, if you get that annoyed by people's opinions(which is what a forum is for) then don't log onto the forums. Every post says the same crap. Just like you, people wanna speak their mind.

    What if...no. There is no 'what if' here.

    You were the one that initiated trouble here.

    Yes, people can be jerks, but they are irrelevant to the current discussion.

    In this discussion, someone had a really rough game and, rather than commiserating with them, you decided to rub it in.

    You got that VOD by the way? I'm...skeptical that you weren't the initiator in post-game too.

    https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1167931189 As i do mention i stream... in a very past post.

    Don't mind the coms, just my swf being...swf,

    Edit: By that. i mean we just wanna loop and Not do gens, that's how we are.

  • Verconissp

    First off. late at night with Mmr being shite (i did warn people Mmr was terrible. BUT NOBODY BELIEVES ME STILL)

    First, you went out of your way to teabag him after a rough game. Just...don't do that. It's a really disrespectful, unsportsmanlike thing to do. A bad winner is a hundred times worse than a bad loser.

    I've had plenty of games where i never insulted the killer in any way possibility, Nor did the other teammate. (I.E ItzChungus) He is one of the nicest people i've met and judging just ONE clip kinda makes it a dick move, ngl... If you also went to the channel you'd see that i only play said assholey character on the stream as the bio said here:

    Note his perks, probably not an experienced Freddy (or potentially someone trying for an achievement - although watching the game, I think he's just a lot lower MMR than you chaps).

    That's the issue... we've had games where people either was completely less skilled than us. or finally had a equal match. but lets be honest...Sbmm is still a joke and always has been,

    I've said it on the stream multiple times that i never hated the guy nor do i have any ability to hate, i still respected the guy and had some sympathy for him, Despite the threats against me, hell i even tried to contact him afterwards trying to apologize.. wouldn't even bother talking to me,

    You should have anticipated that he'd had a really rough time of it.

    We all have rough games.. We either get chill games or sweat games galore.. there's no between. (and yes harder matches means getting better. slowly but surely) i still said later on that we were a dick to him Yes. but that's already behind us..

    However, it didn't end there. After he responded, you began egging him on, saying that you were 'toxic' because he brought a black ward. Why would this justify you being toxic?

    You never know when people bring black wards to save items, or to use it to save The Bs items. I.E One shot clown. one shot huntress. double recharge Nurse. Etc.. and killers have been using it more against me cause im a "Streamer" so that special treatment crap is annoyin' so to say..

    Next time, get your win, get out, and save your gloating and needling for your audience. If you are going to go out of your way to rile people up, don't be surprised when they get riled up. And absolutely don't come to the forums to tattle about it.

    There are waaaay worse people to post on the forums than me... And even then, the FIRST time i tried posting about it and i still get attacked despite me wanting to make amends with said killer,

    Hah. Okay, watched the game. I'm actually way less sympathetic to you now. That was...difficult to listen to (let's get real here, this isn't 'SWF being SWF' - you guys are jerks, and clearly proud of it).

    Yet you watched only One game of us... If you watched maybe just Alil bit of said games with us, and see that we're getting these killers and whatnot. truth be told.. Nicer than that, we've given killers kills / hook states before. but since we saw a black ward, We started trying due to that, (I'm not saying either side was right. both were wrong in the first place)

    Now you can still hate me all you want, but my point stands. i still want to try and make amends with that killer Reguardless...

    Idc if he was a killer main or a survivor main, Still human in the end.. and this game.. Not gunna lie.. it sparks bad anger in us all and makes us toxic one way or another...

  • Verconissp

    to do the quotes btw. it's on the left of the chat box here. looking like a " sign.. now for a response

    Is it behind us? That's the point of this discussion. You were a dick to him. and when he responded, you ran to the forums to name/shame him, as well as making a video to do the same. Tattling. basically, and tattling on someone that you basicaslly goaded into reacting. That's exactly what a cry-bully is.

    Again...one game where i looked like an #########.. when there's other matches to prove i do waaay better than that, But that's yer opinion and it won't change so.. movin' forward..

    This is literally the first time you've mentioned 'making amends'. If that had been your intention, you wouldn't have come to the forums making a stink about him flipping out in post-game. You'd have made a very different thread. And probably a very different video - something along the lines of 'hey, to x killer, I was wrong, I apologize, let's make up'.

    I said that mainly at the end of the stream. but even then, i wouldn't dare try to do it on twitter... That's enough of a cesspool as it is..

    (This is entirely besides the point) - MMR/SBMM is miles better than what we had before. I mostly get pretty even games, and the only games where I don't are either a 'there is basically nobody else playing at 3am on a Tuesday' or 'yeah, this is a .TTV premade that smurfed down their MMR' situation. That said, we aren't talking about MMR here. You noticed the difference in skill immediately, kept talking about how bad he was on stream, and then teabagged him when you beat him. That's the issue at hand. Your own behavior is what set him off.

    The thing about Mmr is. Like i mentioned. on technically Main accounts, never purposely try to die / throw games unless we're doing something for fun or just don't wanna do gens, should be facing sweat killers. and We don't. We rarely get those matches. like 9 times outta 10 we get the variety that isn't Nurse Spirit or Blights.. (god i wish i was facing these more)

    No. Don't do that. 'There are people worse than me' is textbook whataboutism. We aren't discussing their crappy behavior here. We are discussing your crappy behavior. Man up, take responsibility, learn from it.

    I've said many times (Not on forums) on my stream that i am FAR from perfect. and i want to try and improve myself but to a point, i still have my own issues and behavior i work on daily (dbd still don't help this..)

    I don't hate you. I'm just pointing out that coming to the forums to essentially tattle on someone for exploding at you after you taunted them is pretty disgusting.

    I don't mind if you hate me or not. i'm used to having just that, ...i ain't tryna make myself a good guy, i just want people to understand that both wrongs don't come close to making a right,

    'I'm just doing a bit' isn't really an excuse either, especially when it splashes over into the game. He had no way of knowing this. All he saw was a likely smurf premade being BM as hell.

    Sbmm is totally perfect and doesn't throw me killers that can't go against a 4 man swf...

    Now to wrap it up. What i did was wrong? Hell yes. Name and shame rule is abit iffy here on the forums as it stands, so i can't blur out names on stream.. nor in Vods for that matter. Did we trigger him? Perhaps. Did we insult him? Yeah and i felt like a PoS 'bout it, Like i said above one of these quotes. i ain't perfect nor Faaar from it, If the guy was ever on the forums. i'd want to still apologize to him for what i did and how i acted, i only kept the Highlight, Not for name and Shaming purpose. But to show that even a streamer is not the Victim in all this,

    Now i do say... People can hate me all they want, or don't.. i don't wanna force people to do something they don't like, and i'd prefer if we had this more of a convo in private.. as it does get alil personal..
