Add a cool down for crouching and clicking the flashlight

Not really a balance issue but more of a manners issue. My second point with the flashlight is also a bug issue.

Could the devs please add a cool down period so Survivors can no longer repeatedly crouch to tea-bag? I'm sick of seeing people do this in every other game or so. It's not funny it's just being an #########.

INB4 "Well, if you can't handle a little tea-bagging haha, EZ, then maybe you should play something else."

Okay, well if you can't handle getting face-camped then maybe you should be playing something else.

The flashlight issue is both a manners issue and a bug issue. Survivors can repeatedly click the flashlight if they have a macro and cause the Killer's game to crash.

    That would not solve the problem, since next they would start using emotes to taunt (or just teabag a tad slower) and there are killers who taunt too by rapidly looking up and down, which also is not exactly good manners, but it' impossible to prevent.
    In the end manners can only be improved, if the community improves.

    Regarding your second point you should probably send in the crash report.

    They don't? I mean there could be another hidden meaning behind it, which I did not grasp yet. The same could be said about repeatedly crouching though.

    i've no problem with either. rude ppl will always be rude. crouch spam says 'relax. i'm not jumpscare Myers' and flashlight spam says 'theres a trap right in front of you'.... of course they say other things as well.... but its still a necessary component of the game....

    If you put a cooldown to crouch. It will affect the gameplay and another...then it just becomes the same as tea bagging as the pig.

    Super slow crouch...but you still get to tea bag.

    For the flashlight. Franklin all the way.

    I run franklin as a meta on my killers.

    While it is annoying for sure, I don't mind it too much. At times it can piss me off a bit, but overall I find it funny.

    I usually just tunnel whoever it is... outplay them, then get really really hateful and intense messages after the match by that same person. So then I just report them.

    Easy.

    Nothing you can do about tea bagging. It is what it is. As far as the flashlight stuff goes i think something should be done about that eventually. The clicky clicky is incredibly annoying especially when every survivor is trying to do it. I personally would like it if the killers got some emotes aswell besides just head nodding. I noticed on the PTB that the Hillbilly has a new animation in the menu's where he appears to roar and then smashes his hammer into the ground. It looks quite cool and would be awesome as an emote.

    Or by face camping.. Slapping survivors already on the hook, shaking their heads on survivors they downed, etc.

    The only problem is that survivors can abuse some mechanics to give distracting cues like TotH spamming.

    But flashlight clicking is arguable since the audio cue isn't that loud and it only serves to irritate rather than disrupt.

    Or we can just pretend killers have no way of bming and taunting and carry on with the victim circlejerk 🙄

    Killer emotes would be sooooo cool!

    Only reason taunting bothers people is because they view it as something to get mad about. It’s not about “containing rage” it’s aboyt accepting the fact that it’s only what you make of it that bothers you. I’ve never been bothered by t-bagging or people calling me names throughout my life and career, I became successful because of it; do the same.

    I view it the same as trash talking in sports. It’s gonna happen and it’s really nothing to get too upset over just beat them so you have bragging rights

    @SaltyKiller Your game crashes because of flashlight spamming?

    What do you use to play the game? A wooden com?

    Don't question my logic...when you use a system that crashes with apparently spamming flashlight...

    Never had that problem in my games ever...the only crashes ever experienced is from network issues...

    You need a better com and get over getting tea bagged......

    Exactly, it should be so easy and doesnt effect gameplay at all.
    But sadly this is a toxicity/bullying sim paired with nascar racing and it seems that devs dont plan to change that (apparently they expect big enough revenue with cosmetics, guess survivors keep supporting this, so why should they change the game for the other 20% of the community?

    The only solution is to switch to survivor or stop playing DBD to show that killers are actually needed to play the game^^

    I think alot of the BM comes from the survivors because they know how ez survivor is to play. They know that they are in the power role and the tea bagging and flashlight spamming is there way of telling the killer. "haha, you cant catch me". They want to rub it in that the killer is powerless and try and make the killers game as bad as possible by abusing every possible mechanic in the game. A win by these degenerates is not measured by escaping or pipping but if they can frustrate the killer enough to make him DC.
