Slurs because I don't want to be slugged...

So my final game today ended after a Pinhead decided to slug me after I waved for him to go ahead and down me when I realized I had no pallets around. His ego must have been hit hard as he didn't feel "in control" because of my actions and therefore I was deserving of being slugged for 4 minutes.


I decide to dip out with a DC since it's my last match anyway. The game ends and I get some misogyny thrown my way because it ruined his game.


I guess my post is just to state I really do hope that ub does become base kit in someway to counter this nonsense.

    People will be like "Oh this community is mature enough to do [X Y Z]" and then I'm reminded of stories like this.

    I'm sorry you went through that

    I mean, DC'ing is frankly not acceptable, but neither is throwing slurs. Hope you reported them.

    Slugging is fine, it's bad teammates that turn it into a horrible experience.

    All i think when slugging happens these days: 'Soon this won't work anymore, just you wait.'

    Teammates have nothing to do with this?

    Teammates have everything to do with how long we spend on the ground. If the killer is not hooking, that's an advantage for survivors, but only when the team is quick on pickups.

    I don't see any point complaining about last survivor bleedouts since changes are planned.

    I've had a guy threaten to slug me if he's ever the killer in my games because i "slugged for the 4k after someone DCed"

    Granted, i did, but at the same time, it doesn't exactly do anything to change the common stereotype of DBD players being the physical manifestation of the term "petty as #########"

    Slugging is an unacceptable tactic, especially if it's happening all game long or for a 4k. Killer players don't seem to get that for whatever reason. Slugged players can't do anything or play the game!!!

    How about a DS strike that disabled you, as the killer, for the rest of the game and there was nothing you could do about it unless you happened to have the 1 perk that unstunned you once per trial after 30 seconds? Does that sound fair?
