STOP FLAPPING YOUR ARMS ON THE HOOK!
THIS is so annoying. I will no longer unhook until you stop. I am an Altruistic 'we'll make it' user but I am done with this crap.
I have Kindred on, I see you and the killer. I will decide when it is safe to save you and by the way, if you're waving your arms when you see me Sprinting to save you, I'm turning around.
There is a unhook delay for your rescuer when you do that animation so knock it off or die in 1st hook.
And the annoying "uh uh uh uh uh" sounds you make, especially Rebecca, are enough to send ya, they really are.
That is all.

spamming on hook means the killer is nearby

Lots of love ❤️

That used to be the case but people do it constantly now. Even when the killer is nowhere near them.
5 -
honestly just let me die on hook, better than having to deal with someone like you as one of my teammates lmao

I want to save you but you cause a delay which is annoying. I was just venting anyway. I'm too damn Altruistic to leave people on hook, regardless of the reason. Just been a bad few weeks.

I do it sometimes to be silly when I died in a funny way and the killer spins me, when you can just tell they're laughing as well.
But I never do it to say unhook me faster.
Sometimes I'm bored and want to feel like a little birdy :)

With friends like these who needs enemies, am I right?

im gonna do it even more now

In a similar player behaviour on hook note...
For some reason I like it when a player tries to do non-fatal self-unhook attempt as I'm about to get to them safely... it costs me unhook points if they actually succeed, but for some reason I just enjoy watching the animation...
Kinda feels like you race in save someone who is genuinely dying/struggling to get off hook and escape I suppose...
Also is just an acknowledgement of 'I see you!' 😅

Flapping the arms was originally used to show the others, that the killer is camping. Then people started to flap their arms out of boredom. Beating the purpose.
While we are at it, could we also stop attempting to self unhook when the teammate is about to arrive? I didn´t come from the other end of the map, so you could kobe in front of me.

I'll stop doing it when survivors get a better way to notify their team they need to be unhooked. You should know playing survivor how often you see your team just ignore you on the hook or realizes you need unhooking when its too late and you die before they even get there. The game needs some kind of ping system or better communication tools.

The only thing I'm flapping on hook is them cheeks.👏
2 -
I´ve had teammates flap their arms all the way i came from the other end of the map and another survivor also came...

12 -
Well now I'm gonna flap my arms even harder

its my bird imitation
it has had… little effect in the way of flight so far, but we’ll get there

What do you mean? They're doing exercises. Are you against sportsmans or something?!
1 -
Genuine question: what do you do if you don't flappy arm? Do you just....wait? 😂
5 -
I gather information. Which teammates are where, If I see on the hud that Tapp has a gen 90% done and saves me then I know where I'm heading after the unhook. I can see where the killer went and who if anyone they're chasing so I stay away from them. I see which others are injured so I can help them. There is a lot of useful info to gather on the hook.

Okay Count I hear you… but what if it’s a Nancy or Steve waving their arms???

You did not just go there. You. Did. Not.

Sounds to me like they get a free flappy pass!

People like you are the reason this game is so unfun for solos
5 -
The Killer may take my freedom, they may take my dignity, but they'll never take my flappy arms!
4 -
I can do that while flapping my arms too.
Multitasking!
6 -
someone does that to me, I leave and return after they reach stage 2. they apparently can handle themselves, so I let them.
0 -
cool and if I make it off I will be sure to not go for you at all because if you want to be petty than so will I
2 -
I like your style.
1 -
You literally have one discussion saying you can't handle 2nd stage skill checks. But you have energy to flap like a bird? ❤️
1 -
I just wanna know, do you all realize that flapping your arms like that speeds up your hook timer and puts you into second state faster?
If you don’t, then you should probably stop to give your teammates more time to save you.
If you do and don’t care then I guess, welcome to second and dying faster in the match. 🤷🏼♀️
2 -
Whaaaaaat?…. I never knew this!
0 -
Yes it does. Time it out yourself and see. I’ve just missed a first stage unhooks becuz of the seconds lost due to the constant spamming of the self-unhook mechanic
2 -
no what am i gonna do while on hook otherwise just look around as ermac said "we are many you are but one"
im not just gonna sit there
1 -
If they flap it means the killer is camping so I leave them hanging and do gens instead.
2 -
Somebody needs to test this out cause I've never heard of this... I don't believe it till I see it!🤓
5 -
I used to flick the arms to parannoy the camping killer. Was always funny watching them walk around and check behind trees and objects whilst nobody is there.
Weren't little flicks a universal language for camping killer and big long moves for 'its safe'? Barely see anyone flicking anymore.
1 -
wiggling arms is supposed to mean stuff but i just do it because i need to do something in the meantime, just hanging there is boring, sorry. the killer might not be nearby or someone might already be on their way to save me, but i just do it to do it.
2 -
There is sooooo much intelligence to gather though! Being on 1st hook is my favorite because ofvthat.
1 -
no offense but that takes like 5 seconds then i go back to flapping. where the killer goes, give info to duo if i'm playing with him, see everyone else on which gen etc.
1 -
Still is the case even though some don't follow it.
0 -
But when else am I gonna learn to bird? I believe I can fly!!!!!!.........
1 -
They flapped so you dont come, but you did.
0 -

Hope you'll get better.
Maybe a little naughty bear will brighten you day???
