The Amanda's Letter add-on for The Pig has been Kill Switched due to an issue with incorrect RBT count.

Campers *facepalm*
came back to dbd recently, and a lot has changed, some things for the better some, as the title suggests, for the worse.
I cant remember a time when I found so many campers in soloqs as I do now. And im not talking avout Bubbas only. Nurses, Tricksters heck one time even Victor lmao.
something should be done about it, like it ruins the whole experience of the match. Its no fun just doing gens while the killer just watch someone on the hook.

Camping has been a intended game mechanic from the very beginning. Nothing changed in that regard.
The only thing that changed, was how efficient survivors became with doing gens. Losing 2 or 3 gens during the first chase isn't uncommon. So the killer feels like he has to camp in order to secure 1 kill.
Just equip BT and go for the rescue or finish the last gens and get out.

Well I just got out of a match where the survivors did 4 gens in under 3.5 minutes when I was Demo. I got 1 pop proc off and the survivors instantly unhooked so I was not able to walk 10 seconds away to use my MYC.
Then the TTV I was against was like "wow I can't believe he is camping" and "wow I can't believe he is slugging, why do you want the game to be over so fast?!!?"
And that was a bigger facepalm than anything I have heard in a long, long time. "Just let us finish the gens in 4 minutes and run every second chance perk in the book and camp like 3 god pallets and win the game, dude. Quit being so toxic!"
Those kinds of lobbies you have to tunnel someone to death and then slug the last 3, which is what I did.

"How dare people play efficiently"

Damn if only we could hold survivors to that standard.
"Dont sit on that gen for 400/12 seconds, friggin camper".
Suevivors are way worse campers than killers and will ever be.
16 -
If u think face camping one survivor while the other 3 do gens is “efficiently” ur a bad Killer bro lol
4 -
U missed the point my guy lmao yes u had to slug so? What Im saying is face camping is not fun nor efficient for anyone, Killer included. Like u get minimal bloodpoints and the match turns into fixing sim for survivors and watching sim for Killer. U do what u have to do. But “nothing” is a bit much
0 -
It depends, a lot.
If the Killer found a good 3-Gen, why leave?
9 -
If the killer does it = toxic and preventing the survivors from having fun.
If the survivors do it = what else are we supposed to do?!
No wonder the devs are have been spamming us with gen slowdown perks for over a year.
16 -
no game ever has made camping a mechanic bro lol if camping was supposed to be a mechanic bloodlust wouldn’t be a thing. Besides u missed the point. Im talking about the experience, theres no fun in just bullying the killer w BT and leaving without a single chase like ??? Empty win
2 -
Thats not camping bro, that’s patrolling thats playing smart. Ig the survivors were dumb enough to leave the last 3 gens side by side thats on them. Im talking about putting a single survivor on hook and watching him die and nothing else the whole match
0 -
Literally every shooter game with online options have campers, what do you think a sniper is.
8 -
You mean face camping?
3 -
Welcome to DbD then.
11 -
Wow, you actually know the difference between toxic camping and efficient camping, very nice.
Yeah, toxic camping sucks and should get removed, but I doubt it's possible without removing efficient camping
5 -
Gens fly to fast and circle of healing the game is pushing everyone to camp/tunnel get to max level killer and see for yourself.
5 -
Oh yeah, that’s exactly what the devs say “hey killers just wait here the whole game in front of this hook”. Thats why they show all these other mechanics right?
0 -
Have u ever played an fps? Every single CoD MP highlights players who stand still in the same spot lmao they literally show where u are to everyone in the lobby if u stay in the same position for more than 2mins
2 -
Im 100 percent certain I have been playing fps since before you were born yes and my example was a sniper a sniper sits still and snipes but you are probably a young 360 no scope sniper so you wouldn't get the reference
3 -
Just a note: "lol" and "rofl" aren't punctuation.
8 -
I play mostly Ghostface and I am max level. Some lobbies are s* indeed. Thats no excuse to face camp
0 -
looool what game are u talking about gramps cause I dont know how old u think u are but I been playing since dial up my guy dont talk about snipers to me. Cause unless u talking about huge siege maps ur way out ur lane. I dont think they apply here at all
0 -
Thank god this aint no PhD dissertation then lol
2 -
Never mind you referenced cod that is insult enough to your intelligence
7 -
Don´t enjoy playing survivor and getting camped? Just switch to killer and make the difference!
I wish you a lot of success!
7 -
I play both. The thing is we shouldn’t just have to “switch” you know? Thats my point
1 -
No no please name your game my dude. Cause I assure you I played them all from Medal of Honor to CoD to Quake Arena
1 -
So the whole thing was you disagreed that camping isnt in shooter with a cod reference. Go to google and type in fps camping and you will find a 1,000 articles about it since the launch of fps games so not sure why you argued about it.
5 -
And if you want to base your arguement on cod im pretty sure that was the series that made spawn camping so popular
1 -
No bro. I said fps was never meant to have campers. YOU said snipers existed for camping. so YOU back what u said my guy.

Facecamping should be removed.
Unfortunately, nobody has found a good way to do it in the last 6 years.
6 -
I find it hilarious how face camping was fixed years ago and then people just changed the definition of it.
9 -
thats why they implemented mechanisms to prevent that in following games/patches. How do u say it was intended to have campers then? If it was intended no such thing would exist
0 -
Name my game? Dead by daylight cause im on the forum. If you want to know the first fps I played it was battlezone on atari kinda random question. If you are trying to find a older online fps with sniper camping probably quake for example.
0 -
How so? Cause I seen it happen many times. And thats just today
0 -
The literal definiton has, the functional definiton has not.
You could not be reasonably expected to save someone in the olden days against a facecamper, that is still true today especially against certain Killers.
It would benefit us all if we could find a solution.
8 -
Originally, face camping was the killer stand in a fixed position in front of the hook. Which wouldn´t survivors allow to unhook, because there wouldn´t appear the "hold m1 to unhook" promt.
This changed with the introduction of swivel hooks. Survivors could unhook from every angle (ironically, killers still can only hook from the fixed angle).
Face camping was solved with this. Now the term refers to the killer being withing terror radius distance.
2 -
It used to be that you literally could not unhook a Survivor if the Killer stood in a certain place. You wouldn't even get a prompt to unhook.
2 -
But survivors have the tools to rescue a teammate against a face camping killer. Its even possible against Bubba (even though really hard to pull off). I´ve seen it with my own eyes.
2 -
Uff, what a bunch of cringe. "Looool", "lmao", "bro", "my dude", "gramps", "my guy"
This.
8 -
Really? Bro face camping is face camping if it was or was not considered that beacause of a technicality or terminology doesn’t change what it is. Therefore it was not fixed as you said
0 -
Sure. But for that to happen you need to choose these tools or perks beforehand. Which is not possible in game. How do you pull that off in soloq? Where some survivors barely know how to loop around a pallet
0 -
You gotta do what you gotta do to win. Survivors are gonna split up on gens, dead hard for distance, abuse strong set-ups, ect. You need to play just as dirty to win, and there's no getting around it.
7 -
Lmaoooo ur seriously talking about grammar and s* on tbe internet? My guy get down your high horse Ill write as I damn well please . If you wanna cry about it feel free but thats about all u can do
2 -
run to their faces and let them kill you when they start camping. Don’t play with this kind of people and they will uninstall the game
0 -
But you do realize, that unhooking a survivor is now possible. Doesn´t matter where the killer stands, its still possible, yes?
2 -
Yes. But does it solve the actual functional face camp as you said it did? No
0 -
Bull.
I just facecamped after I got smoked in a match and ended up with a 3k. One dead, then I facecamped another to oblivion and got a grab on the obsession. Only one escaped.
If this is intended as a game mechanic, this is by far the worst mechanic to be in a multiplayer game.
What camping (and tunneling for that matter) is, is a side effect of two things:
A) Nothing preventing me from doing that and playing as scummy and gross as possible.
B) Matches and map design necessitating or forcing the killer in a position where camping is the only option if you want a kill.
2 -
Why not? You can unhook, the unhooked survivor gets protected by BT and DS. Which are both meta perks and omnipresent in every match. So its not like survivors would have to adapt their build or something.
4 -
If its not intended, then explain Insidious. A perk that has absolute no usuage as to camp something without getting detected.
6 -
If I HAVE to go every match with BT its not “META” its a crutch, its bad game design. No survivor should enter a match thinking “oh boy what if this Killer face camp the whole game that one survivor”. And no Killer should go thinking “oh man, am I gonna get bullied by some SWF today?”. These only represent things that must change bro.
