THIS is why I hate people that 99 doors

And don’t stay by them to open them....

If you purposely took a hit sooner you would have lived though.

Not trying to be a dick here but your teammates did everything right (except the flashlight Claudette) and if you didn't get out it was your own fault.
First of all, small game instead of DS for example is a terrible mistake. They gave you Borrowed time and tanked 2 hits for you, you wasted a third of your sprint burst running into the wraith, and finally you didn't use borrowed time to bait the killer while your other teammates opened the door.
This is my own opinion, but if you'd rather risk a meaningless Blood Warden instead of having to use ALL your resources intelligently RIGHT at the end of the match then you need to sort your priorities.

You played the wrong hand in that game. You had BT and misused your Sprint Burst. I won't comment on your perk choice, I understand Small Game to a degree. You should've taken a hit as soon as the Laurie took hers.

If you hadn’t ran into Wraith or if you had taken a hit sooner, you would’ve lived.

This is why if I see a teammate 99 the door, I open it as soon as they move. Screw that.

I agree about 99’ing doors. I always just open them. Everything can be done in the time allotted. Saves. NOED totems.
I have lost more games to getting caught at the door then EGC (because a door was opened too soon).

You're the only reason you died. Not your teammates 99% the doors, you.

You had Borrowed Time. You could have easily taken a hit to stall the killer long enough, but it seemed like you were far too eager to just race out the door. So, no offence, but you can't just blame the other teammates, who clearly tried their hardest to help you, for you dying

lol... of course you're more eager to critique my gameplay than admit the fng point is correct.
My build is my build for my own reasons that game. The build is irrelevant. The point is the doors should have been already open or there should have been someone by them waiting to open them for people being chased trying to escape. They could open the door and run behind the person needing protection.
Bloodwarden would not be an issue. The fact that I could have paused to let him hit me while BT was active is a fair critique. Thanks. But again, not the point. If the door was opened correctly I would have escaped regardless. Isn't that what this is about? Doing the most things you can to help your team win? Are you actually going to argue that it made more sense to stand at the top of the stairs and watch... vs stand at the door and pop it when needed and then take a hit for the injured survivor at the door? Just take survivor perks out of the picture and assume that's my 2nd hook... I get pulled off and run to the door while being chased... I shouldn't have to veer off to open the damn thing myself. Period.
Oh and for the record, I escaped eventually.

If someone is getting injured I 99 the doors and leave to help but if nobody is injured I just 99 and wait for a heartbeat to open it. It's a decent strat in my book (I'm a PS4 player if it makes any difference). I don't understand why people are stupidly just keeping the doors shut but I also dislike the idea of leaving the door open, I'm a very altruistic person so even if I have the possibility of death I rush into the fray to save someone.

The problem is that if people are correctly pointing out that things turning out the way they did were not due to the doors only being 99'd, then your point is not correct, is it?

Yeah I agree I hate when people 99 the doors. Just OPEN them.

You could’ve easily gotten out of that situation perkless. Not only could you have taken a hit with endurance, you could’ve ran away from the exit and loop the Killer somewhere nearby while your teammates open the exit. Once it’s open and they’re healed, they could cut off The Wraith and escort you to the open exit. Instead, you ignore your endurance and run straight to the exit, misjudging the time you have.
Also, nobody cares that you eventually escaped. This thread is about this specific down, and how you could’ve avoided it with quick thinking instead of panicking. Yes, you panicked. You wasted a third of your Sprint Burst and had tunnel vision for the exit.
Nobody will admit your point is correct because it isn’t. Leaving exits at 99% is fine. Learn and adapt to new tactics.

Nyes, open that door early. Blood warden is so uncommon... totally won't come into play 😈

"Okay guys, I made multiple mistakes that caused me to not escape, but I'm gonna ignore that and blame it on my teammates who did everything correctly."

The issue is. 99'ing doors came about from a response to ECG. If people just open the door. There is NOT enough time to make calculated rescues. The proper strategy is to have someone that is healthy OPEN the door's switch and stand BEHIND everyone, to take hits while they run OUT.

99'ing the doors is an intelligent decision that allows survivors the time they need to come up with a plan to save their teammates, opening the door carelessly only helps the killer cause now as long as he puts proper pressure, the survivors will be unable to do all that they can under the time limit. She died because of her mistakes, the teammates made the right decisions in that they have borrowed, 99'd the gate, and were prepared to body block, it was her carelessness that caused her to fail, not her teammates making the right call.

Tbh I couldn't care less.
I'll keep 99ing doors as it's safer to save that way. People would actually listen to your argument if you played flawlessly.
Like many people here have already said, you had a lot of flaws in your gameplay

The build is not the problem, is that you didn't take the bt hit for sprint bonus.
The game doesn't have to be adecuated for you, YOU have to be adecuated for it, and nothing is gonna change because you did a mistake and you don't want to admit it.
And yes we criticise your post a lot because we are not going to aplause you for a bad play you did.
It's like saying: the exam was hard and that's why I must get a high mark, even tho you didn't study and you got a 0 but anyways you're right and everyone else is not. (just a example)
Please take note 99ing is a good tactic, don't kill your teammates opening them completely if it's not needed.

Yes I know why people do it and I didn’t bother watching this persons clip but from my experience it has killed me more than it’s helped in matches.

It could be just bad luck or poor decision making on your end, if you're already injured then you really shouldn't be the one leading the charge and if you're the last one left then that one second delay will rarely cause your death. I'd recommend dead hard if you have that poor luck when it comes to this.

Meh. Some of you get it. Some of you don't. I'm not going to beat my head against a wall. If you want to have fun pointing out my gameplay errors, have fun. Turning to run and bumping into the killer isn't a decision, it's ######### that happens. I'm sure none of you expert critics out there ever run into a tree or get stuck on a corner etc. when you get hit. Again, not the point, but again... its what you want to focus on because you don't want to admit the point. Whatever.
I've admitted the error of not taking the hit to get BT. Someone else mentioned just running a different direction... armchair QB isn't a good position for this game. Killer would have followed and I'd be downed. My decision was to run straight for the gate assuming I'd get teammates taking hits (which they did). The problem (ASIDE FROM NOT TAKING A BT HIT) is that the gates weren't opened or have anyone waiting to open them. When I saw that, I still ran to the gate to open them since I thought that was best for the team and maybe I could make it.
One last thing and I'm done with this thread. You critics are just focused on scoring your forum points. And maybe some of you genuinely believe that there is no reason to stay at the 99 doors to avoid this situation. Fair enough. But seriously... focus on the big picture. The game is messy. People make heat-of-the-moment errors all game long. What we do have under our control is strategic and tactical decisions. Critical decisions that affect the gameplay in big ways. Should we work the gen, go for the save, find the Hex totem, heal this guy or go save that guy... etc. You need to get the strategic stuff right to allow for more messiness and errors in the skill based, heat of the moment stuff, yet still win. Basically, if the team plays smart and makes the right decisions they can make more heat-of-the-moment mistakes and do well.
My belief is that the strategic choice to 99 the doors is best if you stay near the door to open them to avoid someone being chased... whether they have made errors or not to get them to that spot.... having to pause to open them and get caught. I'm done.

I think you're the one who does not get it. You talk about the problem aside from the BT hit, but the problem WAS the BT hit. 99ing the gates was not the culprit; you not taking the BT hit was. You simply refuse to acknowledge that.

This is a weird hill to die on. If you don't want to admit you made mistakes, that's fine. Just don't be surprised when people call you out for it.

This is why I hate people who get hooked in the basement at end game. You should be thankful they even went down there for you.
