    Yeah every time I see camping they always get either a 3-4 k because survivors don’t know when to stop going for the rescue, so you have one on the hook 2 getting downed around it and 1 doing gens, that’s an easy win and if it worked for me I’d do it too

    1. Gens are done or about to be.

    2. Extracting salt from toxic survivors

    3. Legit idiocy or lazyness

    4. You know you are up against hookswarmers.

    5. Totem or near completed gen nearby.

    yeah, but the salt is too much to get the right way. That mean you camping a lot and you try to figured out how to play properly killer without being a salty child :)

    I don't whine about it. I was just wondering because I did it once to try but it was so boring for me.

    The reason I don't like camping/campers is that here in OCE I have to wait 10-20 minutes just for a game then either the game is over in 5 because I am being camped, I don't see the killer all game because they are camping or I don't actually play the game because I am camping (which I only ever camp if the exit gates are open and the hook is near a gate)
    Solution- Borrowed Time, ez

    They usually suck at the game. It gets worse as you rank up because you'l get people that use broken add-ons and camp on top of that. I don't get it.. well, actually I do.. they suck at the game and are using broken add-ons to make up for their skill and frustration that makes up being a high rank killer.

    They're the equivalent to survivors that use DS. I don't mind camping if its strategic like when people are hook swarming like fools, or the gens are all powered, but when you do it when no gens are done and you're a P3 huntress with 1-shot hatchets.. you're just as toxic as the noob3/ochido neanderthals.

    This game needs a swamp cleaning though. If people are running oOo/DS that can sometimes explain why a killer may camp too, never underestimate the lengths that some survivors will go through just to piss off the killer. It is pretty much why I stopped playing trapper/wraith/freddy.

    I'm honestly fine with camping. Sure, it's frustrating at the time, but hey, it's not like your life depends on it- oh wait.

    jk, camping is fine. I got face camped for literally no reason 3 games in a row (3 different killers too) yesterday despite me using No Mither. It entirely depends what the killer feels like doing, plain and simple. 

    (For those wondering or assuming what the rest of my perks were, the other perks were: This is Not Happening, Up The Ante and Slippery Meat)

    I think the biggest reason new players camp is because it feels like what you should do. You found someone... you don't just want to let them go.

    I think experienced players will do it sometimes because there are real applications for camping at times.

    https://forum.deadbydaylight.com/en/discussion/6067/i-urge-the-developers-to-watch-this-entire-video-reduce-the-max-number-of-pallets#latest

    Read this thread, it explains perfectly why Killers have to camp especially at high rank. You need to Camp or at best you get a Black Pip, you'll only rank up if the RNG are on you and survivors made extremely bad move like constantly saving friends when killer was near etc

    if you don't camp you will lose. because games only last 5-8 minutes, gens are too fast, and survivors having 3 lives means you MUST focused on one person or they will all get away. and you MUST TUNNEL

    Face camp, however, will guarantee you will lose the game

    so camping isn't BM but survivors with meta perks and flashlights = BM. The reason why survivors started running DS so they would deny the possible camp from the killer. As long as camps are legit so do SWF and other stuff survivors do. They are called survivors afterall.

    playin this game supposed to be fun, someone raging in this game because want to beat the other players no matter what or the way, the raging move many behaviors in this community, instead of thinking a good strategy, a smart one " how can i use properly my killer / or survivor? " doing " meh, i chose to ruin the game to other people because i cant handle that ".
    Many people project their frustrations of real life into the game. More counselors and less playin when u have issues.

    Also facecamping does not exist anymore. Deal with it.

    Yes it does, yes, yes it does

    When I play killer i'll camp someone's face if it's for a ritual kill but only at the end of the game when gates are powered, I'll do what I can to ensure that...saying that I normally get swarmed and done over by borrowed time and flashlights and blocking anyway lol so I rarely camp effectively.

    Son, u're not talking like a 1750 hrs player. or a rank 1, instead complain the " whiners " change ur sentences :) and maybe, maybe u will find another mod on other people. Like i said before, git gud - stop whining - you are not on my level that's not work with me :) works fact, try to be nice and stop thinking like a newbs.

    Camping works in rank 18, not rank 1 :) at least u try to admit u use a 3rd part program to boost ur rank.

    Ps: i'm above of 2k hrs and i played both sides, it doesn't matter how many times you played in this game, matter the way you played. If u find many people who complain your game, if i were you, i ask myself what wrong in my game, over the silly complains.

    They camp because not enough survivors are pressuring them away from the hook by popping off generators.

    Survivors are so caught up in this "everybody must get out at all cost" mentality that they won't train their killer's right.

    While keeping others alive is beneficial - there's times you have to stop and look at the bigger picture and just let that guy on the hook go for the greater good. And punishing a camper is the "greater good"

    Can only speak about myself, but actually the survivor meta made me so mad that I started camping, I never even thought of camping before it and nowadays I regularly use it because I know that the survivor meta is just absolutely broken and that there is no point in trying to chase someone if I have one on a hook.
    And camping is a solid strategy, ESPECIALLY against SWF because they are always over altruistic.

    From my experience its only a bad idea to camp if you are playing against non-meta solo survivors, in these games I have the most fun and try to 3 hook everyone (survivors seemed to enjoy it more too)

    that's a good explanation the reason why the camping is a strategy ( not a good one ), compared to silly complain child upstairs. It's fair enough, i respect that, but i dont share the same m.o. to kill enough survivors.
    Sometimes there will be a strong group, and then you will have to be smart enough to kill 2 of them or 3, sometimes there will be a simpler group to handle, and then the game will go as planned.
    The game is not made to get angry like a triggered son @Lowbei because " i can't handle SWF, so i camp everything alive per trial ", is made to be fast and smart. It's not time to be angry, so next game!

    Camping can indeed be a decent strategy yet as a high ranking killer myself, I strongly feel that camping is only a good strategy when it comes to the gates are powered or open, when three generators are close together, survivors being way too overconfident, parties in the basement, basement builds, and finally when a generator is nearly done and you hook a survivor near it. You now have objective control over both the hook and generator yet my main concern is with the blatant camping aka griefing . I've had campers camp me for no reason and many others when 5 generators are up, and I find it highly annoying that there's really not many counters to camping beside genrushing " sucks for that guy". I think that is wrong that another player has to suffer just for someone's sadistic amusement!

    I think it's not a bad idea to create items or more perks that can free someone being camped. What i believe should happen is that our report system needs to be reworked to deal with people who grief just to ruin your day yet here are my ideas.

    Purple Bomb- I name this item purple bomb to give homage to our good old friend( I hate you) purple flashlight. The light bomb would be an ultra rare that when thrown, will blow up on impact, stunning a killer near the hook for x amount of seconds due to the immense amount of Auric light or just light produced from the blast. The draw back of this item that the killer must be near a hook and only ONE can be brought into the game. If more than one purple bomb is attempted to be brought into the game, only one person will keep their purple bomb randomly and the others will have different items they own and if they own no items, no items will be brought.

    FireCrackers- They never bothered me once as a killer yet I found use as them as a survivor. I feel like firecrackers deafen mechanic can be looked at to change it to where a killer can't perform any action besides moving while deafen x amount of time depending on the firecrackers' rarity.

    Adding a special toolbox or toolbox add on that allows for a survivor to be able to unhook someone by causing the hook to collapse and if the camping killer is in that radius of the collapse hook, they're stun for x amount of time.

    Perk 1- The Jester's Demise- If a Killer camps you for x amount of time when the gates ARE NOT OPEN OR POWERED IN ANY AMOUNT the Entity grants you it's protection for x amount of time to you and your savior to where nothing can put you into a dying state for x amount of time. T-baging will disable the effect and borrowed time, Adrenaline, and no perks such as self care, dead hard, and much more cannot be used during The Jester's Demise and X amount of time afterwards on both players who have The jester's Demise on them. This can only be used once per Trial( game) If the killer is in a chase around the hook, the x amount of time will not be added. I put x amount of time as in how much time would be needed to active the perk.

    Perk 2- Not_Dead- If a killer camps you to second stage for x amount of time, the second stage will be delayed & The Fog will swirl around you, you will have a chance to hit a skillcheck. if you hit this skillcheck, the fog will teleport you to a safe spot on the map, very far from the exit gate yet very far from killer. if the killer tries to hit the fog that shrouds you in those moments, you will be healed to a healthy state.

    We could also add some items for characters for example a guitar that can only be used and found by Kate Denson Kate will be able to use guitar to quell the killer for x amount of time by playing the song that caused her to come into The Entity's world or a foul pizza. Dwight can used a foul pizza ridden with auric cells to distract the killer to devour it for x amount of time.

    My two pennies.

    Camping is horrible to be the recipient of. But there are three valid reasons that I would excuse camping under.

    First: trying to secure a kill at the end of a match. I had a recent example of this actually, where I was waiting for the Hatch to open when the Nurse I was against caught me. And so she camped because she knew I could easily escape. Luckily my team mate saved me and was knocked down, I was able to avoid her teleports and escape, the Meg able to get to the hatch I had been waiting by. It's merely a last ditch effort. To get some reward, rather than leave empty handed.

    2: Nearby survivors. If you know they are nearby then it is fair game. They were being too altruistic and so you punish the nearby survivors and don't leave the hooked one, simply due to the fact of that matter. I'd say this situation is caused mostly by the other survivors and the killer is merely responding.

    3: A genuine build that promotes this play style. And it does work, especially in the basement.

    Other than these three? I'd say that they are due to rage, a lack of want to try, a learned disapproval for certain characters, perks, add-ons and such, or perhaps just due to mere boredom. It's a horrible thing to receive but it's a way to play.

    It entirely depends what the killer feels like doing, plain and simple. 

    /stand
    /slow clap
    /nod head

    This guy gets it. It really IS this simple.
