intentionally 12 hook, never chase people off unhook, play a b tier, never slug even when theyre camping with flashlights

they still teabag and stand at gate and flashlight click anyway?

why should i even bother following their made up rules if theyre just going to act like toxic babies anyway? surv players are terrible losers and even worse winners

    Why do you go look at them. Just go farm points while they stand there wasting their time

    There's always a negativity bias here also. You aren't seeing the people who don't do this because you played this way. I also find it hard to believe that no one is leaving their items for you, even if it's rare.

    You're only remembering the negative interactions. Or possibly, if you aren't going to the gate at all, you have no idea what's actually happening there and filling in what you imagine is occurring.

    They want you to play like that so they can teabag you at the gate.

    Its always been more about how you feel like playing. If you wanna play "honorably" by the rulebook, then go ahead. If you don't, theres not even such a thing as reporting for slugging the whole team or tunneling or camping ppl to death.

    The way ive started to see it (even tho i still do the rulebook thing) is that the survivors objectives are emotionless generators. Your objective is emotional survivors. Youd show them courtesy by not tunneling your objective, going after the unhooker instead. But that same survivor shows you no courtesy by going straight back to the generator thats almost done, tunneling their objective.

    So the whole courtesy is literaly 1 sided throwing in the name of "honour"

    I usually suggest to killers to use builds, where you will not be at the mercy of survivors.
    Always start strong and depends on how survivors play you can ease up a bit.

    I am always up for some shenanigans with survivors, I have a rule "if you make me laugh, you escape".
    But truth is most survivors will not do it, quite the opposite.

    Have you ever done any babysitting? When you play games with kids, you often pretend like you're way worse than you are because you don't want to clobber them and make them cry.

    But sometimes you'll get some smug brat who thinks they WON and starts trash talking.

    Would you get angry at a 5-year-old in that situation?

    A thousand times this. The survivors shouldn't have to worry about your fun and you shouldn't have to worry about theirs. Play the game how it's allowed. Don't let anyone guilt you or try to gaslight by saying you must have deep rooted issues for playing a certain way. It's a video game. It's not personal and it's not serious.

    You wanna tunnel? Do it. You wanna slug? Do it. You want to spread out hooks? Do it. You want to farm? Do it. If survivors want to tea bag and bring perks and items to gen rush or bully the killer - they can do that too. It's all just a game. It's all fair. If they or you are not having fun - they/you can give up or just play something else.

    I'm so sick of how whiny this community is about how a certain player plays a video game.

    Survivors will BM you regardless if you win, or lose.

    They don’t care, nor should you. You play how you want. It’s your game too.

    So, why does it even bother you if survivors teabag at the exist gate? Its totally uninteresting, either force them out or just meme with them. Also if you 12 hook, theyre dead and cant teabag at the exit at all. I never had such an issue while playing D-Tier killers. And if they teabagged ingame they mostlikely get killed in the end, cause non of those can back up their bvhr with actual gameplay.

    I'm going to keep doing what I think it correct regardless of how other people act. Stop letting childish people push you towards childish responses.

    Play for your fun. People don't tunnel, camp and slug because they are mean, its just a design flaw.

    I've been receiving verbal abuse from survivors playing tryhard and casually. I just skip the chat and go for the next match.

    I don't know why people generalize people in this game.

    This is the only game I have seen this be such a major issue.

    I have played TCM, I have seen people play F13 - this is the only game in any asym game that hyperbolizes one side to imply a rulebook is a thing and how we want you to play a certain way.

    I don't really care what you use, but let's not kid ourselves when killer mains love to complain about 2nd chance perks and exhaustion perks.

    I don't really comprehend what you're implying, play however you want to play ~ but you forfeit your complaints on your side too.

    Some people seem to view their opponents as a whole hive mind in this game after awhile. Even just in-match, a lot of killers start to see survivors as one unit and not four seperate people, so one tbags, and they throw their anger at the whole team. It's really odd. I don't get it.

    I played 12 survivor matches last night, escaped 9, usually with teammates, and I don't recall anyone tbagging. We just left. But the way people talk, it's every survivor, every match.

    Yes, I never understood the whole "rulebook" from either side.

    But then again, I do not treat DBD like a tribalism game.

    I played killer for over 1k hours, I never treated the survivors I went against under a rulebook or dictated how I played depending on how they played. The only time I "lax down" in a game is when bots would become prevalent. Otherwise, it's fair game - never complained about exhaustion perks, second chance perks, x, y, or z.

    Same for the survivor side - even when being tunneled, I do not let my frustrations out. I might make a side comment when a friend got tunneled in a video a year ago, but I do not care how one plays. You want to tunnel, proxy camp, slug ~ sure, do what you want. You want to play S tier killers? Go ahead. - but you cannot complain about your opponent if your logic is survivor bad, they want to teabag me at the exit gate.

    I just truly hate the tribalism that this game has, it's pathetic to me in a way.
