3 disconnects in 2 games in a row and still getting tunneled... This game is easy mode for killers..
First game someone gets hooked and then unhooked the killer tunnels her and she disconnects and 20 seconds later the next survivor gets downed and disconnects.. The 3rd survivor gives up and and stops for killer to die but no killer is greedy and slugs her then scans the whole map for me so I don't get hatch like only 1 gen done.
Second game is even worst a different killer same ######### someone gets hooked and unhooked and the killer is tunneling her off hook like the first game and she disconnects the I get hooked and unhooked and same thing killer is coming to tunnel me and I'm dead and imagine writing ez in post game chat when survivors are disconnecting ??
Your whole 4 min system is a joke everyone is disconnecting every goddamn game for the tiniest inconvenience and when 1 survivor leaves then it's so difficult to do any more gens. SoloQ is hell no one is doing gens no one helps you when you get hooked and everyone disconnects often and it triggers chain effect of other disconnects .. What's my fault in all of this? killers are scummy tunneling and face camping everyone . Swf groups ruined it for SoloQ. Try playing high mmr soloQ it's only tunnel this face camp that slug here slug there ... Do something to punish everyone that disconnects and ruins games a 4 min penalty doesn't scare anyone and it doesn't ramp up that quickly.
Secondly I hope the new perks and updates announced will address these scummy playstyles it's 0 fun to spend the whole game face camped and tunneled.
DBD is unfair and miserable for soloQ survivors.
Update : 4th game so far and every killer I went against tunneled anyone that got unhooked.. and another 1 dc because he slugged. I just can't ... wow I don't want to play either role anymore yikes I'll take a break.

Solo Q is not fun, that is for sure.

Like I can't do nothing every game is the same killers are getting 4kills every time and there is nothing you can do about it no one does gens and no ones helps while killers take the opportunity to tunnel and face camp.
4 -
It's worth noting that it's not fun for the killer either. When I'm playing killer and this happens I feel like I'm just wasting my time on an easy win.
24 -
One of the killers literally said ez post game
3 -
People say a lot of things in post game chat. I once had a killer make fun of me because I "played Tapp and still lost."
10 -
Wait?
You had ######### ragequitters and now are angry at the killer? Why?
Cuz he went for kills?
Cuz he didnt give you the hatch?
32 -
Mainly the face camping and tunneling can you imagine slugging hitting on hook proxying the hook and finally slugging to protect against hatch! and you keep saying it's unfair for killers ? what about the majority of players aka soloQ
6 -
As i can understand that it can be frustrating that people DC, it doesn't mean the killer has to play differently because of that.
If it's their play style and want to continue play like that then they have all the right to it.
Is it unfun for the remaining survivor (s)?
Yes it is, but also unfun for the killer.
I would just shrug it of and move to the next match and forget about this match
11 -
The post isn't about that why are you focusing on that ? You chosen to address that but not the tunneling and face camping that caused survivors to DC?
0 -
DC is never fun but what can you do? Other than taking break or playing with "friends" that wont DC
3 -
Another thread where a Survivor acts like camping and tunnelling are crimes that have been committed.
21 -
Maybe because a huge amount of dcing happens regardless of that?
You can play completely survivor friendly and people DC because they don't like the killer even if the player doesn't play the character in the expected "scummy" way.
Also what people call camping and tunneling is hard subjective.
I have watched some videos of a killer that called one gen getting done after 3 hits and a down "they are gen rushinz now".
So pardon me if i and others don't take everyones claim of tunneling/camping/gen rushinz at face value.
12 -
This isn't really showing that killer is easy mode as much as it shows how much having ######### teammates screws you over.
20 -
if you found those kind of killers then you should play killer, at least you won't met those kind of people... oh wait...
5 -
Its weird isnt it?
I mean, i´ve seen survivors write "reported!" after a match, when the killer doesn´t play normal after 1 or 2 disconnects and farmed with the survivors, so everyone had some points. Yet they get this reaction from the survivors, that instead of being grateful report the killer after the match.
So its not a surprise when the same killers suddenly just want to end that match asap and don´t want to risk being reported by playing nice.
I honestly can´t blame those killers.
13 -
What?
0 -
This is why i wish we could reconnect to a match we got dced from its almost back to the days of killer being the host instead of dedicated servers.
0 -
Yes, survivor players do generally make the killer experience much easier than the other way around.
10 -
You missed the main problem that what caused these survivors to DC ? Killers proxy camping hooks till a survivors hits hook state 2 and someone unhooks them and killer chases them same scenario happened 3 matches in a row , 4th match I got tunneled too but no DC's so the main problem is soloQ no one cares to unhook you and the game design that allows tunneling and DS is useless the exit gates are open or something.
0 -
you heard me... play killer if you think that solo survivor is unplayable, you won't get frustrated with randoms who behave like headless chickens...
4 -
These survivors rage quited as a result of tunneling it's not because of connection problems which is totally fine.
0 -
Pretty much yeah since a good killer will only need himself to win but soloQ you need 3 randoms to win which makes it difficult
2 -
I played killer so much most of my playtime is killer lol I switched to survivor because killer wasn't fun anymore for me.
1 -
then you should play something else... playing with randoms most of the times will get more frustration and nothing else (i had people that crouched in a corner all the time while the killer was nowhere near their or my position... i had kindred). it's a lost cause imo
3 -
True it's a lost cause indeed
0 -
No, i didn´t miss that. But you missed the "killers want the match to be over asap to avoid getting reported" part.
13 -
Because whatever you say on this forum, the killers will ALWAYS bring it all back to them.
Welcome to this forum where survivors are evil and always wrong and where killers are small, fragile, helpless things.
4 -
I feel like the title is slightly misleading but whatever.
The first game I don't see any problem with the killer. They are literally playing what's meta. The second game I feel like there is some kind of catch for the ez in the chat. Did you tbag the killer or something? Cause the tunneling is once again, just the meta, but the ez is definitely not right especially if someone disconnected.
I do agree solo Q sucks. The devs said they are working on it so hopefully this means solo q won't be so bad anymore.
Might I ask what the killers were just out of curiosity?
3 -
I don't understand how people get tunneled game after game. I mean on average you should only be getting tunneled once in every four games & that's providing that every killer player you face tunnels someone.
If someone is getting tunneled you should probably be down to at least 3 gens left to do by the time they die or even close to 2 gens left. The game is still very much in a 50/50 win/lose state for both sides.
Survivors fail to realise that if a killer has 4 survivors left by the time 2 gens are left then it's pretty much 99% lose in most cases. You can be down at 2 gens within a few minutes. One of the biggest mistakes that causes you to win or lose a match as a killer is choosing at what point you need to tunnel to win. If you ignore that injured survivor who's on death hook and opt to chase another and suddenly you are on 2 gens then you screwed up & will most likely lose or draw. If you take them out you significantly increased your chance to win the match.

That's a very uncommon thing the report system doesn't even punish hackers and you're expect a farming killer to get reported ? Even if they did reports don't do anything.
1 -
I told him tunneling isn't cool and he was salty about it and one wraith and one pyramid head
0 -
It's always survivors are evil and killers are victims.
0 -
The problem with soloQ they don't know how to punish someone that tunnels or camps .. Everyone is bored of doing gens so they hide around the map waiting to unhook someone or doing nothing which gives killers all the time and pressure free to tunnel survivors one by one and sadly I only face hardcore tunnelers because mmr just doesn't work.
1 -
NGL its kind of incredible how everyone goes for one another's throats in these threads. Like, holy #########, we get it, being camped and tunnelled, or getting clicked at and having to deal with several second chance perks, is not fun. Have you considered just #########' sucking it up and moving onto the next match?
People you meet literally once, maybe twice, over hundreds of hours in Dead by Daylight shouldn't be living rent free in your head to the point you write rants about how Killer, or Survivor, for that matter, are "easy mode" because you got cooked. It's a video game, a poorly balanced one at times, sure, but still a video game -- you don't need to paint anyone who plays the game in a way you personally do not approve as some ######### oppressor who is out to get you.
Take a chill pill, go outside, and try to re-evaluate what led you to the point you are this deeply bothered by a video game.

Suggestion, play killer. You'll avoid bad teammates and will not be tunneled.
Not everybody knows that.
Besides, if your efforts to salvage a match are often answered like this (they are), you are bound to stop caring so you just end their misery.
4 -
This game and devs are a waste of time just uninstall it and play other games like EldenRing or Classics.
1 -
This is called solo queue
2 -
I don't focus on everything, you are mad because the killer keeps doing that even after a DC.
I just said if that is their play style and they don't want to ease up after a DC then that is up to them, they don't have to let anyone go or play relax, stop tunneling, camping, and whatever they do.
Like i said, it might not be fun for the remaining survivors but there's nothing you can do other than forget about that match and move to the next match.
2 -
Doesn´t matter if those reports do anything or not. The simple fact that "friendly" killers get greeted like this after a match is off setting. I´m sorry, but if kindness is greeted with hostility, then its no surprise that killers act this way.
The killer doesn´t need to farm with the survivors. You should be mad at your teammates, not the killer. They disconnected knowing very well how devastating this is for the rest of the team.
7 -
Maybe if survivors didn't DC or give up on hook the killer wouldn't find it beneficial to tunnel one survivor while three others M1 gens.
3 -
Hate to see it, but at this point, I have little to no hope for Solo Q. It's beyond bad. The community has been asking for improvements for so long only to get met with a pie-in-the-face at every turn. Then anything that does actually make solo Q a little better gets nerfed into the ground almost instantly because it is seen as "too strong" for SWF to be able to abuse. If you aren't playing survivor with friends or without some other mindset going in to make the Solo Q experience fun, then I would recommend you probably should find something else to play or else you will continue to find disappointment as I'm sure you already know. I hate to say that as a long-time player, but too many things just make solo Q unbearable in this game.
2 -
Classic trolls. Like, you're already winning a handicapped match, relax. My favorite is when you get an instant D/C going against a super strong killer with good mobility and map pressure just for the killer to still camp and tunnel survivors. Just laugh at killers like that. They probably lose so much that they need any little win they can manage to feel better.
5 -
If someone DC's whilst I am playing killer I just go stand in a corner. I know how unfun it is to play in solo queue and have a killer play sweaty AF with a DC. I try my best to just be nice and let the survivors do gens and leave.
1 -
What if they're a swf and the teammates game crashed? 🤔
0 -
As Killer, I just let the survivors go. The games too easy at that point, no use in me going up in MMR because a survivor gave me the game, I don't get any points if I kill everyone. However, I don't tunnel either, so that's probably why I usually don't get DCs.
2 -
I would still do the same thing.
0 -
Bless your kind soul. I also tend to do similar things when I'm on the other end of the equation as the killer because to me it soils the experience and I don't get as much enjoyment out of it since I'm facing a team already at a disadvantage. I will farm or just goof around a little with survivors while they get things done. Sometimes you can get some nice interactions out of it too when the remaining survivors leave gifts or try to take me with them. Usually turns a crap situation into a slightly more enjoyable one for everyone.
2 -
I think you’ve missed the point.
Even if camped and tunnelled it’s still not an excuse to DC. You are trying to make excuses for bad sport survivors ruining the game for their team by placing the blame on the killer player.
Guess what the only people who ruined those games were the DC’ing survivors.
“waah I got tunnelled and camped” is a BS excuse. Stop blaming your opponent for the crappy behaviour of your sore loser team mates.
It’s not your opponent’s job to make sure the game is fun for you.
3 -
Players who rage DC are objectively bad at the game and should uninstall.
2 -
My least favorite is when I hit them and they immediately DC.
Like, how boring is that?
