So easy to see why survivors have a bad rep

This

And when it does happen, I cant help but have a little fun with them :)

But it's never just 1 toxic survivor. It's usually almost all of them, assuming they escape. An escape realistically is meaningless, because it doesn't necessarily mean you looped well or were efficient on gens. You just got a good match up or team, and found yourself in an open exit. But because it's the killer's win condition to get kills, and their escaping denies it, they usually get the ultimate "rubbing it in your face" satisfaction, especially since it's group bullying. I rarely see killers so ecstatic about the other side losing. They're too busy on... just trying to play the game? Occasionally, you'll see a Wraith hitting on hook after a win, because you know he rarely gets any kills in his other matches. But with survivors, it's virtually every time they win that they act so malicious and undignified. They do it when they lose as well. The 1v4 equation has nothing to do with it.

Thats a good point. My experience this event was mostly fun, too. If survivors played a map offering or brought 4 flashlights, I sweated, too, but most of the time I was rather chill and purposefully let some survivors "off the hook", leading to many more pleasant then mean spirited games.

But because there are 4 survivors to each killer, I can barely count the number of times that I got a 4E with no one waiting at the exit gates till the timer was up, at least on will always take the opportunity and I would say that I can count on my two hands how often 4E survivors just left.

With killers, I am equally pressed to remember many occasions were I was bleed out purposefully by the killer. Sure, I got hit on the hook here and there, but nothing too bad. I still fail to equate hitting on the hook to survivors t-bagging, mostly because I experience it so infrequently and rather rarely. A killer hooking a survivor on the hook isn't doing anything productive, and if its the last survivor, it will be over after the sacrifice animation.

So in my experience there are just many more toxic survivors then killers, BUT your playstyle can surely influence this. Some players will never make friends with the other side, but during events there is a lot more funny and playful and lighthearted interactions between the two roles then during off-seasons.

@Xernoton thought you might find this thread interesting

Not really. Someone had a bunch of jerks back to back and has had enough, so they now direct their rage at the side that harassed them.

It's definitely not a good way to play the game (an eye for an eye makes the whole world blind), especially since you mostly hit the wrong people. But it's an emotional response to something that unfortunately happens in every online game.

@Prometheus1092, I hope you'll get some better matches soon but please try not to be a jerk towards people that just play the game. They might end up just like you, trying to get revenge, which breeds more salty killers and salty survivors.

It’s very easy to get swept up in emotions due to bad experiences. I’m sorry you experienced some rough games, trust me, we’ve all been there. It’s important to remember that:

Toxic survivors are toxic killers, and toxic killers are toxic survivors. Because one role is not inherently toxic. It’s the people that are.

Claiming that an entire role or the majority of that player base is toxic tends to weaken what could be very valid points by making them seem dramatic or exaggerated. This kind of generalization fosters an ‘us vs. them’ mentality, which can make reasonable arguments appear overly hostile or unfair. I understand this was likely a vent post, but broad statements like these can be harmful to both those you’re generalizing and to your own credibility.

Im sorry for your frustration, and I hope you have better games in the future.

It’s not disingenuous to ask for data from someone making a broad claim about an entire playerbase. If you’re gonna make the claim that the “overwhelming majority” of survivors are behaving a certain way then have proof to back that up. Otherwise re-state the way you say something.

Would have been very easy to say “I don’t know if it’s my MMR or what but in my experience I’m getting a lot of survivors acting this way.” The OP didn’t do that. They literally said “I played one game as killer so now it’s easy to see why survivors have a bad rep because the overwhelming majority act this way.”

So now we can tell what the overwhelming majority do based on one match? Okay. 😆

Must be a regional issue. Never ever have seen anyone making such false claims.

Math isnt your strenght, right? And it has abolutely nothing to do with MMR, cause you cant even make out what MMR you have nor anyone you play against. Also you do not belong to the top 1%, thats easy to tell.

I never said that mmr doesnt excist, dont put any words into my mouth to excuse yourself. If youre regularly getting 4ks its obviously not that good of an mmr or youre completely sweating yourself and have no right to judge anyone else. Also saying youre only getting against sweaty swf is a lie in itself, cause most games arent swf.
