Face camping

I'm gonna cry. I can't believe that rank 5 killer (bubba) hooks a survivor, face camps and moves on.

So he downs his first surv 30 seconds into the game and I was chilling on a gen and I went for a save. I stand there in disbelief. Hes just walking around the hook for full 2 mins until he died. I tried to get his attention so that someone may get the save but he wouldn't move. So first survivor died and I loop him for 3 gens and finally get hooked while the last 2 did last gens they tried to go for me and then boom noed lool. I'm so ded😂

How little dignity do you need to have to have 10 comments on your steam profile saying "FACE CAMPING", and then saying git gud in chat.

So annoying.

    A facecamping Bubba should only get 1 sacrifice max. Just know that if they do it they're guaranteeing a depip and you're likely gonna pip from it (unless you're the one who gets hooked first in which case.... unlucky)

    So, you fed him then. Why didn't you just run back to a gen? That's 2 mins you could've been doing a gen, instead of worrying about a face camper, that probly would've left once no one was around and saw gens starting to pop. Even if he just wanted that kill, that's all he would've got. Don't feed them man... 🤷‍♂️

    30 seconds to down the survivor + hook and 2 minutes facecamping = 2.5 minutes.

    3 survivors alive, 80 seconds max to complete gens solo with no ruin

    150 seconds - 80 seconds = 70 seconds (1 minute, 10 seconds)

    3 gens completed and 70 seconds left.

    2 survivors on gen = 44.44 seconds to repair

    3 survivors on gen = 33.33 seconds to repair

    Within that 2.5 minutes, you could have:

    1) Completed all generators or 4.75 gens

    2) Completed 4 gens, destroyed totems.

    3) Completed all gens:

    • “looped him for 3 gens” (time it takes to do 3 gens with 2 survivors = 124.44 seconds + 20* seconds for moving to the last. So 144.44 seconds, assuming they worked purely on generators).
    • In those 2.5 minutes of looping, both other survivors could’ve: 1) Opened Gate, 2) Found Totem.

    Instead, you focused your time on him facecamping. Survivors have the advantage against a killer that facecamps a survivor to death.

    The mom medkit can help you save survivors from face campers if you ever want to give them a try :)

    Being salty like this is giving them exactly what want. Facecampers don't care about skill or winning. They want to troll and trigger people, and it looks like you've been trolled, triggered, and bamboozled.

    Usually such a player will be able to face camp two people in a game - not every swf and especially not solos are coordinated enough to know to just knock out gens in this scenario and keep the damage to one. The worst thing that can happen is one gets face camped while the other three survivors are crouching around the area trying to make a save. That's the worst thing I can see if I get camped - no one doing gens and wasting my distraction time on the hook. With no gens are getting done it is highly likely he will get away with face camping everyone.

    It is a toxic playstyle done on purpose to waste everyone's time. No one is getting anything useful in points or emblems.

    It wouldn't be Bubba if he didn't camp.

    It’s only wasting “everyone’s” time if you allow it. At best, it’s wasting the Killers time and the hooked Survivors time. If you CHOOSE to sit there idly and watch, that’s your fault. That’s the only “toxic” strategy a killer has. Literally 3 more survivors can complete the objective within the window.

    No, it wastes everyone's time. Even if three survivors do all the gens and make it out best the survivors can hope for is safety pip (probably de-pip) and way less blood points than in a healthy game. Killer is definitely not going to have any blood points and will de-pip -- waste of everyones time.

    The cliche is leatherfaces are psychos who stand there face camping revving their chainsaw the entire time. Poor disturbed people.

    Maybe he is just tired of getting bullied so he wanted a chill campy match

    where is it a waste for everyone’s time if only two players gameplay is stalled? A facecamping killer allows 3 survivors free roam of the entire map. 🤔

    I'd just let it go at this point because BHVR is never going to truly balance this game out and it'll be a thing of the past once next gen consoles come out. Just don't put anymore money into this....disappointment and let it run its course this last year coming up 🙂

    Hurt other peoples fun? How about you stop being so sensitive over one opinion guy. Don't like it then don't comment. Grow up.

    The game would be better off without Leatherface. He is a abomination in terms of game play.


    And to those advocating "just do gens" seem to not realize solos will not know what is going on typically. So you will likely get at least 2 Survivors going over there for the save to find out he is camping. Then they may test what type of camp it is (maybe he is just checking, maybe he is chasing someone around the hook, or maybe he is hard camping) before moving on. Then you got travel time to get to the different gens/the gate. It's very easy for a 2K to happen even if all Survivors rush the gens. Throw in NOED and any delays can easily turn it into a 3K.

    But if the victim of it suicides, 3-4K. If someone tries to save, 3-4K. So basically if the whole game doesn't bow down to his boring style, he wins.

    It's awful.
