I keep getting put with try-hard toxic survivors :(

Every killer game, i feel like i'm paired with the most immature survivors there are, the kind that run up to the killer first time to make them chase them and then t-bag when you get hit with a pallet

i keep feeling like people automatically know i have Asperger's and take advantage of it, jumping through windows to make noise not caring if i hear them or not

I'm still in the Ash rank because of the re-rank and i still get put with the worst kind of players. I just want matches were we can have at least a bit of respect for each other, but no, its always 'play with the killer'!

I keep getting on the game thinking 'it doesn't matter if i win or not, just stick with the match and get whatever results you can', but then these kind of survivors show up and make me feel like a joke for not being able to catch them.

This kind of thing makes me want to jump into a survivor match and sabotage the whole thing, throw down pallets, destroy bones so no Boons, that kind of thing

    Yeah I get what you mean I have only come across a couple of toxic survivors. Most have been nice but the toxic ones get under my skin. The best thing I can tell you is “fight fire with fire”. They want to be toxic, you be toxic back. I had a Claudette tbag and flashlight click at me when she pre dropped a pallet From some distance. I face camped her and tunneled her out. Also hit her on the hook twice. Then I just chilled with the other survivors. They weren’t toxic.

    The frustration you're feeling is completely understandable. I find what's important to keep in mind is that the people doing this are either immature, don't have enough awareness and/or empathy to understand how their actions affect people, or they're just miserable, terrible people who get their fun out of making other people feel bad. It isn't a reflection on you; it's a reflection on them.

    You will, unfortunately, find people doing this but, at the very least, it should get better. I know, for myself, it did as time went on. There is still way too many toxic people but, as long as you are enjoying the game, focus on the good matches and good people you'll come across.

    With human nature being what it is the good people and matches will feel overshadowed by the toxic people you'll run across but, if you can, make an effort to keep the positive encounters in the forefront of your memory.

    The only people who can make an impact on the situation in the large scope is BHVR. Until and if that happens, I hope you can keep the positive in mind. I hope what I said can help a bit and you end up having more fun. We need more respectful people in the game and I hope it goes well for you.

    I mean killers can be just as toxic

    when I have a bad survivor game against a scummy killer, that doesn't make me wanna go into a killer match and tunnel, slug and face camp the survivors etc..

    I really want to live in this survivor world where they all are OP. Cause right now I'm almost going Crazy at my solo mmr. People giving up on First hook, DC'ing all the time, killers who apparently are good at the game going against a bunch of uncoordinated solos, with a few using selfcare and crouching all over the map scared. It got to a point where people let me die on First hook with kindred.

    if people want to stop tunneling ... its actually quite easy ... provide a 3-6 sec to no-collision to one that just got hooked.

    Over time you will recognize the signs of a bully squad and be able to read the situation. If someone is obviously trying to get you to chase them, ignore them as that means they are not doing objectives. This game has been out for a long time and there are people who understand it very well and have played more hours than most people work at their jobs. Someone who has played DBD that much is likely mentally damaged and depressed. Treat them with pity.

    Take a deep breath and focus on your objectives. Take frequent breaks and try to learn something from each match.

    It doesn't change the fact that this kind of stuff keeps happening weather it is killer or survivor it's still a problem

    Never said it otherwise.

    Just stating that people shouldn't stoop to people's level to go on the other side to be an idiot and ruin the game for others.

    It's a game at the end of the day, people just shouldn't get bothered but to each their own.

    Understood it's just hard to know that because of the obvious SvsK issues that can pop up here

    That's just 95% of survivor mains so it's normal. We literally had multiple threads here full of people desperately defending that being toxic is actually a good thing.

    I am a Survivor main and I get the urge to play Killer every so often. I'm not very good at it and I play just to have fun. Chase people, hook them a couple times, and let them leave. I've experienced so many sweaty SWFs recently. I'm not that good against people like that. I actually had two teams take turns using Head On to stun me over and over. It irked me so much. I'm not a toxic Killer. I even go out of my way to not camp and tunnel and my rank is so low but I get matched with people like that. And people just way better than me. I don't get it xD;

    Nobody gets this at the moment.

    But it seems completely random - some people got screwd and some say everything works fine.

    Nah I would say everyone's getting screwed and those that say they aren't just don't play much tbh

    It's hard to say you face swfs every day all the time when you play maybe 3-4 games a day ofc your not gonna notice it compared to the people playing 15-20 games a day

    So you want to sandbag random survivors because you are having a hard time as killer? And then you wonder and cry about people only wanting to play swf..........

    In time, you will be immune to their behavior.

    This is 100% accurate. It’s also the same type of people who say they want to see if it’s a SWF pre-match when we all know the only reason they want that is to constantly dodge to go up against clueless solos.
