Can you ban the people that tech the SB bug?

I know devs will never ban survivors for using this bug but can we please ban the people that show on youtube or twitch how to do it? @not_Queen ,@Peanits ,@Patricia

    Would be nice if they do it. It is good to inform the playerbase about bugs&exploits, but to show what you need to make, so that they work, or to encourage their audiences to use exploits, or to encourage them to do other crap in the game should be very high on the "to ban list" imo.

    Even as a survivor main, that's silly. Super silly. The bug of abusing the aura is not in your control, you cannot activate it whenever you please, it's just there. Killers objective is to kill, hook, and repeat until they are all sacrificed. What are they suppose to do? Sit there and wait? The shroud add-on for survivors is in the majority of my games, it's atrocious. In 30s, a gen will be completed and when I get to the next generator and start repairing it, another one is done. The point is, a game-breaking that isn't in control of the player should not result in any punishment, it's silly.

    Now to SB, I mean I would also say no. While it's in complete control of the players hands, bans aren't given often because of bugs if I recall. Of course with some exceptions. I believe in general that, BHVR and other games should not punish for their own mistake, they should patch it immediately. Really looks like BHVR's motto is "Add, lay down". No disrespect, but game-breaking things like these really hurt a games picture.

    You're special, aren't you?

    So if I just happen to walk to a generator and see the black aura, I just have to ignore it? Also what is your definition of control? And calling it a passive ability? What is the shape of your brain?

    It is very easy to tell when someone is using the SB exploit because of how fast they trigger it, players who save it by letting the exhaustion timer run down right at one second, when they are in the middle of running and then try to use it, they stop for 1 second and then it goes, for players who uses the exploit, when they are running and then use it, it activates immediately and you see no stopping in their running, no pause.

    I can ignore the SB exploit because I just have to not do the inputs to do it, but I can't ignore the black aura bug because it just happens, same thing how I can control the SB exploit and can't control the black aura bug because it just HAPPENS.

    And so what you are saying is that, if im at a jungle gym, being looped by someone, and there happens to be a near by gen, im controlling it? Because I happen to place that gen right their?

    And if someone is near or im chasing someone around a hook, I have to ignore it? and let them get the save?

    And fyi, this bug only happens at certain distance you are from a gen or any other aura, so I can't simply just stand in the middle of the map and STRAFE back and fourth. Same thing with survivors, the bug only happens when a survivors model is a certain distants away from a gen or aura, and I can't force a survivor to be near a gen lmao, because they will just run somewhere else, I can't force the gen to be somewhere else.

    If I was able to control the black aura bug, then I would be able (In theory) see survivors at any distance.

    and if ANYTHING, its not even an aura, but more of an shadow or outline bug by the survivors model, and so you are saying that we should ban killers just because of an outline bug by the survivors model or auras that we can't control, and if a killer is going to a gen that is behind walls, the survivors ARE GONNA BE ON THE GEN, so what am I suppose to do? Leave and ignore?

    Relax man this is obviously a bait. That person must be joking otherwise the devs should ban every killer that play the game.

    Ok man tells what the difference between old legion infinite mending, wake up bug, SD bug, and the aura gen bug. 3 of them you can control by put in the perks/add-ons and the other it just happens because devs aren't good at coding. We try to make a less toxic community that allow a player from both sides to enjoy the game and when we have people that show bug to use only to get views what you think will happen they help the toxicity.

    I know its a bait, I have already seen his name around here before, that account has been deleted many times before, but I like to talk to people like him because its funny.

    Fellow pig main? k

    Of course nurse and spirit are not gonna be greatly affected by it, but that does not mean other killers will have that same share, so I don't know why you brought that up.

    An exploit (In video game terms) Is causing something to happen that normally doesn't happen and can do it on command, that is the SB exploit

    A bug (Video game terms again) is where something in the code is causing something to normally not happen and can't be controlled because it just happens, that is the outline bug.

    And also, most of the time, you don't even notice the outline bug when you play as killer as you are more focus on everything else.

    Edit: also, the outline bug doesn't always happen, bugs are random, and they happen randomly, they are not always consistent of how they occur

    I was playing hag yesterday and I think the generator shadow aura thingy your talking about happened, I wasn't running any aura perks apart from nurses calling and I have no idea why it happened. Whereas survivors have to activate the sb bug deliberately I think this aura bug can just happen. So I don't think killers should be banned for this

  • Seltas0208

    Or just have it happen to you in game. I have no idea how to trigger the bug yet it happened once for me yesterday in a hag game. I feel terrible knowing that wasn't just a one off bug that just happened randomly

    They have to start soon other why it will be like a spoiled child that never hear the word no. If they let bug-like those exist and let people to tech them then we soo will have even more toxic survivors and killers.

    The don't ban people for showing something outside of the game which is not bannable in the first place.

    You need to report them to the platform they are using and hope they do not advocate cheating being shown.

    If the offense is bannable then yes they can do something. This happened to a streamer who showed how to so something which was bannable live on stream.

    I'd rather them ban people who use the word "TECH" to describe an action in a video game and/or people who use "Hack" to describe a small change to their pumpkin pie recipe.
