Stop going for flash light saves please 😭

So many times I’ve been in a match where I’m getting tunneled (ie the second I get unhooked the killer comes back trying to go for me) and instead of taking aggro or hits or trying to just make it slightly harder for them to immediately down me my teammates will run and hide to try and get beam saves???

You know what is more helpful? Taking the killer off of someone getting tunneled and making yourself a possible target instead of sitting there with zero hooks while theyre injured on second in hopes of getting a flash light 😭. Like it’s one thing if the killer only wants a specific person dead, but half the time they tunnel because there is deadazz no one else around getting in their way or becoming easier to find, leaving the unhooked person vulnerable and an only option. At that point you can’t even be mad at the killer. What else are they supposed to do? Go hunt for people hiding instead of someone who just got saved with no one standing in the way? There’s no one else around and they’re hiding so finding them is a lot harder than finding an injured person freshly unhooked. I hate being tunneled and sometimes I do find it toxic, but when I’m the only one the killer can bloody find you can’t even blame them for that. Especially when they come back with likely intention to go for the saver and they’ve already ran to a dark corner with a flashlight up their rear end. Or when they catch you doing a gen and instead of a teammate coming to take a chase off of you they follow you around until you go down instead. It’s so easy to just step in after the killer gets stunned or momentarily loses the target they’re on and get them on you when you’re not about to die yk?

Just had a match that summed up this frustration. My teammate with no hooks kept going for saves and instantly dipping to go hide knowing the killer would come back so they could get a save. Several times they had a chance to take a hit or down but chose to try and get a beam instead. The killer went for me (after tunneling someone else to death out the game) and instead of taking aggro or body blocking this girl kept hiding in corners until I went down. The only reason the other guy died was because neither of them tried to get the killer to go for them. Didn’t take hits or block for him, didn’t make themselves known at all to even tempt them. Just stayed hidden trying to get saves. I was cross map on a gen during the first chase and assumed they would help him since they got the save. He went down almost instantly though and that was that.

The flashlighter didn’t even get one save either bc the killer was beam paranoid. All it would have took to buy me a little more time to finish a heal was another survivor being in the way man. It happens constantly. Teammates will literally see you die bc they rather try and miss a beam save than just take a hit or take chase. Similarly I’ve died bc I went down on a pallet and instead of getting a simple pallet save they wanna try to use the flash light and completely miss 😭, and they run around after you ehile you’re being chased instead of at least doing gens. If you’re not going to take a hit for me at least go do objective man. Why are they so appealing? I get they can be fun to do but I rather win a game than throw a match bc someone died.
