Killing themselves on hook is fine for killers bad for survivors

Cause it speed the victory for killer and survivors who suffer from it can't control it. As a killer would slug them if he doesn't want to see them go to the next match that easy.


Can you just make it so survivors can't try to escape from the hook anymore which was ,hmmm dunno how to describe this ''idea'', and aswell you don't need to mash space bar in phase 2 anymore. No one can kill themself now. Problem fixed and survivors who kill themself and dc are the origin of this ''Nerf?'' cause they abused it.


Three years I play this game and I never rethough the sacrficing system but know that I think about it, being able to try and escape for a little 4% is dumb anyway since you will die faster. It makes the game less cooperative and give you the possibility to escape in a way with a ton of selfishness. Making the game even more toxic than it should be. And then in phase two mashing space bar will break any keyboard faster futhermore it's not really stressfull but annoying so anyone uses a macro. And this way survivor decide themselves if they live or die.


Giving the killer an advantage and giving a very very bad feeling to all 3 others survivors. Who want to play anymore when one then two survivors kill themselves in a snowball effect?


Who want to see this selfishness? And you can't punish this behavior since you can't force ppl to break their keyboard and you give them the choice yourself. If people can't do anything on a hook okay they will probably start being afk in front of the hook. But this you can punish. As you do when someone dc.


And trust it or not, loosing 10% of players on such change will bring 50% more players because this is very very,or as you like to say, Tremendously toxic for the game environement.


A lot of people probably consider not playing dbd when they see this behavior and some other just don't open it again.

    I mean yeah, dc penalty is cool and all, but when the first survivor just suicides its still a 1v3 with 5 gens.

    I don't even know what to do after that while playing killer because it just feels #########.

    Well, I can certainly understand why you are asking this, but the try to escape mechanic is great for the game. I would love to see being able to try to escape but not having to struggle.

    The thing is sir, you can't obligate people to play the game right. Punish DCs, people kill themselves, not allow people to kill themselves, they afk or just force the killer to hook them a third time by either spamming lockers or vaults or simply gathering crows

    Yay it gives a tremendously high level a toxicity in all aspect of the game. It's exactly like a dc and devs should start using it at their avantage before fixing it just ban everyone suiciding often for at least 1 month. I really don't care about this people and I'm 100% sure they will play again anyway.

    Depressedclownmain, If they start being afk in fornt of the hook this is punishable. If they suicide it isn't punishable since devs allowed it in the first place. There is the ultimate difference.

    This meca can in a very low amount of cases be helpfull and I mean, Very helpfull. But it's not worth at all the scurge of suiciding dcing which truely kill the game since release.

    No one want to see this behavior, everyone will agree if they are not selfish themself. I mean, okay be selfish, have no respect, don't care about what people think and destroy your life yourself by your behavior which is absolutly the same irl and will absolutly expose a downside one day or another. But Not In A Game Supposed To Be Based On Cooperation And Sharing.

    Why do you think this game gives the feeling everyone in the world is most likely sad to live with? Because in 3 years every one who had principals and respect are gone away playing a game where you feel like people are generous and happy in life.

    And now you have some veterans like me who try to live with it and mostly people who will insult you, be racist and even more spreading toxicity not only to the player base but to the devs. Devs need feedback and it must be really hard when more than half of your popultion gives you No respect at all and say it high piched while enjoying playing your creation.
