Lobby Dodging Survivors

After all the complaining by survivors that killers lobby dodge, have you noticed that survivors with pings of under 50 are lobby dodging now that they can see the ranks of their team mates?

Double-standards.

    I really only dodge if the ping is too High or there's a Jake or New in my lobby.

    Cant blame them. The current matchmaking puts you in a lobby with ranks beyond 15.

    I've seen streamers do this too and its disgusting. Theres no reason survivors or killers need to see ranks until the end of the match (if even that)

    well "double standards", its not like survs see killer,

    and tbh its not a killer that have to play with R20 teammates xd bruh yesterday i literally had 5 lobbys with R20 lvl 1 surv (rank 10 btw and im gonna keep that rank to not play vs too much of a sweat (from both sides)) well half year ago we had 3vs1 bugs everywhere, whats the difference between 3vs1 and 4vs1 when 1 of those 4 is afc/ wandering around the map/ cant hit single skillcheck, its not survs(neither R20 or R10 or R1) fault MM is Pepega

    btw entitled killer mains are crying about swf but when they give sth to soloQ surv killers are "how could they do that?"

    double standards would be when both killer and survs can see each other, now survs are dodging other survs not killer xdd well i guess big boyo learned hard word and is using it everywhere

    and tbh killer should see avg rank of survs (not rank of every surv because he would tunnel weakest surv and he would know which is weakest from the get go xd and thats unfair as hell)

    Hadn't noticed, but if so screw them.

    It's not a double standard because IT ONLY HAPPENED THIS WEEK.


    Get over your hatred, it leads to the dark side.

    This is actually a good point, and really true.

    Ran into a killer like this 3 games ago. I literally ran circles and played with him the entire time. I felt bad for the guy and let him hit me a lot before I crawled out of the exit gate.

    I was literally in no danger the entire time, it was Suffocation Pit and I could juke him at will and he couldn't figure out the loops. So this is how it feels like to be a god survivor, lol.

    Matchups like this shouldn't happen. And it's correct to dodge a lobby like this if you realize what's up.

    @Mochan But I love my hatred.

    I don't think it does mean that the killer is fairly new though. Playing killer I've seen people lobby dodge when everyone has a very low ping and after the game the survivor that was "dodged" was the only low rank player out of everyone.

    But I do agree that these matchups simply should not happen.

    survivors need to see ranks, cause they have to strategize with their teammates. And if you know that you got lowranks as teammates, you have to play around them. I now had so much games where i had to save my other lowrank mates, cause theyre just bad af, so that i myself have even a slight chance of winning (escaping, pipping, whatsoever). thats not even close to double standards at all. killers are dodging for the worst reasons (cosmetics, jointime, names, items) which is just cherry picking. survs shpould even be able to see loadouts of their teammates to strategize more.

    Or maybe, those survivors thought that the killer would have been a new player too, and didn't want to ruin their experience of the game.

    Besides, survivor lobby dodging and killer lobby dodging is pretty different, as if the killer dodges the entire queue gets disbanded, but if a survivor does you just have to wait a couple seconds for another survivor to join.

    Pretty much the same. Sorta had my "oh no" moment after having ranks like 6-6-17-20, and what do you know it's a rank 20 hillbilly with 1.8 hours on record. He'd genuinely lose me after I quick vaulted a window and start checking lockers, it was as if he couldn't see scratchmarks and had music blasting at 120 decibels in the background.

    I just escaped ASAP but you just know there's people that will catch on to this, see a similar rank spread and basically rub their hands together like a cartoon villain.

    Sometimes people think I lobby dodge, but the real reason is I have stuff to do. you know, in the real world.

    Really? So with broke matchmaking ,e as a rank 1 should have rank 17-20 randoms on my team? No thanks I really don't enjoy someone quitting as soon as they get caught or just throwing down a pallet before the killer gets anywhere near because they think it will make them break it before they start a chase and don't even realize they alerted the killer(literally had someone do this and that was the answer I got)

    Haven't notice.

    Green ping survivors dodge me all the time.

    So to summarise then:

    Acceptable reasons for a survivor to lobby dodge: any

    Acceptable reasons for a killer to lobby dodge: none

    Good to know!

    I still think, makje yoru team mates invisible, make it invisible to the killer, i mean none of us know (unless swf) who is loading in, what they are bringing in...are they 3 blendettes with torches? 4 Jakes with tool boxes? maybe the game needs more anony stuff...i mean we never know who the killer is at first, maybe we need same for survs....
