If you're curious why survivors run DS
I had a rank 1 game vs a nurse that I ran across swamp map for 3 gens (not in the big boat). Eventually she caught me and put me in the basement and camped me til I died.
My build was No Mither, Resilience, Prove Thyself and Sprint Burst.
I didn't t-bag or had any bm.
When you have to camp the No Mither guy to punish him cause you're too bad at blinking, of course I will remove Sprint Burst and slot DS.
Sorry, just venting, some of these players are just unbelievable.

At least the other 3 managed to escape thanks to you, i would be happy about it.15

No Mither can be viewed as cocky perk, just like OoO.
"I dont need 2 health stages to beat you" so maybe thats why you got camped?

Perhaps, I just use it for Resilience.

Sorry, just venting, some of these players are just unbelievable.I too have seen more camping lately, pretty much the only reason why I get DS and Adrenaline.

Yeah, next 3 games, got camped again. It might be cause bbq has a counter now. They need to add more time on the hook or a perk to counter camping. Also the quality of survivors at rank 1 is just laughable. The ranking system is terrible. So many problems with this game I am so tempted to give up.

What's the reason to use DS?

To be honest, I'm gonna have to start running DS again. I don't like DS, but I think the reason I am such a low ranked survivor is because of the constant tunnelling killers. When I'm getting tunnelled, I disconnect almost immediately. That ######### is straight up annoying, and a waste of time, why shouldn't I disconnect?You're rewarding the killer and punishing your fellow survivors by disconnecting, you know.
And I'm a killer main, mind you.
Yeah, right.

Even though I've had some really frustrating games as survivor, I still haven't resorted to DS. Because I understand what a fundamentally broken perk it is.

DS removes a lot of pressure the killer has in general.
The threat the killer poses at that moment to the goals of the survivors drops sharply.0 -

Yes I know many of you killer mains will laugh but I remember very well how the game was before and after BBQ.
Before, only toxic survivors looped and no one liked them. All non-looping survivors sided with the killers on the matter. There was no need for such tactic, the game was fine without it. I myself and other survivor mains were constantly sandbagging loopers to help the killer catch them and than calling them toxic in end game chat.
After BBQ, at rank 1, everyone was dying left and right, you had no room to breathe, no time to do gens. Nurses and Billies were flying all over the place from one survivor to another. You had one hooked, one chased and one or two rushing to save, while one or no one was doing gens. The only games where we managed to survive was when we had a toxic survivor in the group that looped the killer. So survivors soon realized that is what they have to evolve into. I mean, even truetalent started doing it, which was the head of the anti-looping campaign, back when it was considered toxic.
Same with gen rush. There was no more time to go search chests, cleanse totems, have a varied gameplay, like sabo'ing, body blocking. No, spawn, go straight to repairing, nothing else. Otherwise it's game over.
This was the case only with billy and nurse, for other killers it didn't change much. But rank 1 was only billy and nurse at that time. And rank 1 dictates the gameplay so eventually everyone started doing it.BBQ is the most awful thing that they could have added to this game for both killers and survivors. There were so many other options to stop camping.

Killers just getting triggered for all the wrong reasons if that's the case. Pretty sure he got camped because he wasted her time for 3 gens.
I sometimes run this build too for fun when I want to be productive. It's the only way to reliably proc Success Kid I mean Resilience from the start.

If you run a killer around for 3 generators, it means that the killer has absolutely no pressure/momentum so by trying to gain this as much as possible camping/tunneling could work. I wouldn't be so bothered about it, killers waste loads of precious time when camping which survivors can use to their advantage.

Your arguments contradict themselves. Pallet Looping has been a problem since LONG before LFs release and Survivors never just farted around instead of doing gens.
I haven't said it wasn't a problem. Quite the contrary, I mentioned there were survivors the likes of Ochido that were considered toxic and looped. Than, out of a sudden, few weeks after Leatherface release, everyone started doing it. Did you even bother reading everything I said?
I expected you guys will come here laughing. Because you either weren't playing back than, or you just started and you didn't understand the game dynamics yet, either not playing billy or nurse at rank 1, either not playing survivor at rank 1. That's why you have no knowledge on the matter. I do, since I was playing survivor at rank 1 and I remember very well how the game changed.

What are you talking about? People were looping since 2016, they just went from infinites and window loops over to pallet and window loops. It was not needed to loop pallets because there was no bloodlust, slow vault for Killers and literal infinites. Pallets were used to win time or to stun Killers.
The main difference was that Survivors actually knew how messed up all that BS was so they rarely used them in order to provide a fun experience for everyone. These days people just don't care anymore and do whatever it takes to make the match as annoying as possible for the opposite side.
Almost as if it's some kind of payback for taking away their infinites. "Alright, you took our safe spot aka infinites, now we're going to make it as annoying as possible for you in return!".

With the buff to Prove Thyself and the nerf to BBQ, expect more camping. Often when the killer doesn't have momentum (3 gens go off and they finally down someone), they resort to camping either for momentum or to insure a kill. If you're chased that long, your goal is to lose the killer, not to continue looping him. Cut eyesight, pretend to go one way, then go the other. If you're being chased that long, they're bound to camp you.
What rank are you btw? That could also be an issue. If someone is mismatched, they may decide to punish that. If you've really been playing since the beginning, you shouldn't be bullying newer players. Though I'm doubting that because of this post:

What rank am I ? It's in the text you quoted. Also ppl don't use BT anymore since it got nerfed like 3 times. They wont use it since it doesn't protect the unhooker. And you can't loop nurse. Did you only read the title or something?

So you fought a bad nurse at rank 1...? Just because you mention rank 1 and complain about how much it sucks up there, doesn't mean you were playing in that rank and being camped. I've found killers at the higher ranks to be better at playing the game and not needing to resort to tunneling and camping as they recognize when to give up on a chase and come back. BT shouldn't affect the unhooker. It's borrowed time for the camped, not a free save. The recent nerf was actually a buff, I do believe, as you can mend yourself even if you don't have SC and it doesn't go down if you're being chased. The biggest issue with it was that it was bugged and didn't work if the person unhooking was downed.

People still don't use it, because it's only effective in well coordinated SWF groups. In solo play if you use it, you just end up on the hook yourself, so they just prefer to do gens and let the guy die. Well, that is best case scenario. Most of the times they stay crouched behind a nearby tree, waiting for the guy to die, hoping the killer will ######### move eventually. So yeah, BT is only useful when people use it, but they don't.

In the post I mentioned, you complained about the quality of rank 1 survivors. It's important to recognize why you were camped, though. You looped them for three gens. By that point, you should be looking to shake off the killer. If you're having troubles 'cause you're the first one found, I would suggest either bringing a perk to help avoid the killer or to wait a bit before you get onto a gen. SB is another crutch perk, too, and puts the chases in your favor as long as you can avoid the killer getting close enough to hit you. People do use BT from time to time in solo matches. If you get the unhook while the killer isn't paying attention or while the killer is away from the hook, it won't be as much of an exchange. I know what you mean, though. I wish people would punish the camping rather than feed into it and waste time.

SB is another crutch perk, too, and puts the chases in your favor as long as you can avoid the killer getting close enough to hit you. People do use BT from time to time in solo matches. If you get the unhook while the killer isn't paying attention or while the killer is away from the hook, it won't be as much of an exchange. I know what you mean, though. I wish people would punish the camping rather than feed into it and waste time.
Darling, you can't loop nurse. And I couldn't lose her either. Trust me I tried. It's very scary to have a nurse for so long on your ass, while using No Mither.

When I'm getting tunnelled, I disconnect almost immediately. That ######### is straight up annoying, and a waste of time, why shouldn't I disconnect?You realize that you help the killer by dc'ing? And that they will continue to tunnel since it's such a well working strategy?
If you don't like getting chased and prefer doing gens, you maybe want to consider playing a stealth build.

I fail to see it.Gives you more chances to survive in the event you get caught and no one can save you, since the killer is camping the ######### out of you.> @fluffybunny said:
With the buff to Prove Thyself and the nerf to BBQ, expect more camping. Often when the killer doesn't have momentum (3 gens go off and they finally down someone), they resort to camping either for momentum or to insure a kill. If you're chased that long, your goal is to lose the killer, not to continue looping him. Cut eyesight, pretend to go one way, then go the other. If you're being chased that long, they're bound to camp you.
What rank are you btw? That could also be an issue. If someone is mismatched, they may decide to punish that. If you've really been playing since the beginning, you shouldn't be bullying newer players. Though I'm doubting that because of this post:

Yeah, next 3 games, got camped again. It might be cause bbq has a counter now. They need to add more time on the hook or a perk to counter camping. Also the quality of survivors at rank 1 is just laughable. The ranking system is terrible. So many problems with this game I am so tempted to give up.You mean Borrow Time? It's a Bill teachable. They've also tweaked it so that when you're farmed off the hook, the killer can't hit you before you can move.
What rank am I ? It's in the text you quoted. Also ppl don't use BT anymore since it got nerfed like 3 times. They wont use it since it doesn't protect the unhooker.
So you fought a bad nurse at rank 1...? Just because you mention rank 1 and complain about how much it sucks up there, doesn't mean you were playing in that rank and being camped. I've found killers at the higher ranks to be better at playing the game and not needing to resort to tunneling and camping as they recognize when to give up on a chase and come back. BT shouldn't affect the unhooker. It's borrowed time for the camped, not a free save. The recent nerf was actually a buff, I do believe, as you can mend yourself even if you don't have SC and it doesn't go down if you're being chased. The biggest issue with it was that it was bugged and didn't work if the person unhooking was downed.
I didn't complain about how much it sucks, I complained that I got camped while having no bm and using No Mither. I mean to camp someone with No Mither... it seems so weird, at rank 1 and with a nurse as well. Felt ouf of place. Regarding BT, yes it was buffed recently. People still don't use it, because it's only effective in well coordinated SWF groups. In solo play if you use it, you just end up on the hook yourself, so they just prefer to do gens and let the guy die. Well, that is best case scenario. Most of the times they stay crouched behind a nearby tree, waiting for the guy to die, hoping the killer will [BAD WORD] move eventually.
In the post I mentioned, you complained about the quality of rank 1 survivors. It's important to recognize why you were camped, though. You looped them for three gens. By that point, you should be looking to shake off the killer.

Yeah, nurse works a bit different, but you ran her around for so long. That's my point. You wasted a lot of time and she had next to no pressure due to you being able to run her so long. If she got that high with low skill, she probably had NOED, too, and relies on it regularly. Breaking LOS is even more important for nurse. Buildings are you friends since she needs to guess where you went.

Yeah that's how I kept dodging her for 3 gens, breaking los. But you know scratch marks right?:)
I don't know why I keep having the feeling you're talking to me like I am a noob. I have 2031 hours and am rank 1, so I know a few things.0 -

To be honest, I'm gonna have to start running DS again. I don't like DS, but I think the reason I am such a low ranked survivor is because of the constant tunnelling killers.

Bwhahhaahahhahahhahahhahahhahah
Got something to say?
I believe someone already pointed out that you're literally ruining the game for all other parties involved, but sure:
okay, what would you do if you're getting tunnelled and nobody on your team has borrowed time?
If you're expecting free saves, play something else (or go back to bring a killer "main" [I believe you]) - You're clearly unhappy with base mechanics that will NEVER change.
Your sense of entitlement is literally showing.

Believing oneself to be inherently deserving of privileges or special treatment.
"... is straight up annoying, and a waste of time, why shouldn't I disconnect?"
I refuse to believe that you fail to understand the correlation, as you're capable of reading text and replying on these forums.
