If someone hits stage 2 on their first hook, does the hook counter update since that 12th hook is no longer possible? Personally, as someone who actively avoids tunneling, I hook counter next to each survivor would have been more helpful. I'm pretty sure, if someone was tunneling, they would know which survivor they needed…

Wow. A spot that the killer absolutely can not do anything about (unless you have ranged attacks.)

(Apologies for the late response, haven't been playing for a bit.) It's not a win because he only got 2 kills. It's a draw. However, it might not even be an even draw if he didn't get a lot of points in other things, which I suspect he did not, such as chase, or if he got any hooks on the others. Again, probably not. The…

It's an interesting concept that would make the game more interesting, as the 3 survivor/killer teachable perks are typically not that strong (with only one really being good...depending on the character.) In a similar vein, someone had floated the idea that the killer/survivor for their specific map, would get a bonus on…

It's still not a win. Also, it doesn't take into consideration player skill. Maybe they weren't as good of survivors as he was a killer. Or maybe they made some mistakes. In the few instances where I have had last minute switch outs against me, the teams really weren't that good. Which is why they do it at the last second.

You were totally in the right here. I've been in the situation before too. As a rule, I don't camp or tunnel, but protecting that 3 gen is your priority. And if they come into the area, even if it's to save the survivor. That's their issue, not yours. They should have been careful with the gens they were repairing. Yes it…

I have died so many times from trying to do a last minute hook rescue. I still try. I always run kindred, so if the killer is nearby, I'll be able to see it. If the hook is far from the exit, then the chances of me getting hooked trying to rescue is greater. If it's Deathslinger, I never wait. (I have seen survivors pulled…

When I finally got OoO, I ran it for a few games, once with a 3 person SWF. It was really helpful knowing where the killer was when I wanted and I never got tunneled. In the SWF, one of my friends ran it also. So even if I was in the middle of the map, she give tell me where the killer was in relation to me. As killer, I…

OFF TOPIC @sulaiman how do you keep stats? What all do you track? Just curious. (I would have sent via private msg, but can't seem to figure out how to do that on these forums.)

I use BBQ on everyone of my killers that have it. I use We're Gonna Live Forever on every one of my survivors. Why? As a killer, it almost guarantees a 100% bonus to my BPs. (As survivor, it's hit or miss.) When I was ranking up my main killer, I didn't get BBQ until level 46. When I started using BBQ, my win percentage…

For the most part, I ignore OoO. If I happen to come across them, as someone else said, I chase them normally. Depending on their toxic behavior, I would go with the tunneling/camping option. However, coordinated groups can effect a rescue. Regardless, you'll be able to get hooks/slugs in this way and might get a sacrifice…

Thank you!

That killer is almost exactly like one of the first killers I ran into as a brand new player, except mine was rank 20. Same perks pretty much (he didn't have sloppy, it was a killer specific perk and it was from a 4th killer.) I was yelling at the computer that there was no way I should have been matched against someone…

Huh, that's interesting.... I'll have to try that. Thanks for the tip.

Play Deathslinger. Today I was just about to run into the gate exit area when he hit me, hooked me for my 2nd hook and eventually I died on hook when the last survivor left. I have seen my son play Deathslinger and actually pull someone who was teabagging at that invisible barrier and sacrifice them. I never wait at the…

For the handful of killers I've played, I do think that has helped me tremendously when I play survivor. To be fair, a lot of the killers run the same perks and it's fairly easy to figure most of them out. There is usually one perk that requires a lot more attention to figure out or it's one that I am totally unfamiliar…

Not true! While I'm still a fairly new killer, I don't keep track by name, but by character/outfit. However, recently, 2 Jakes wore identical outfits and neither had an item. They often ran together and I triple hooked one a lot sooner than I had thought. I wasn't tunneling, but he did die rather early and I did feel a…

@Anniehere About 5 months ago, I was where you are. I got the game because my son plays this game. He's a killer main and I thought I'd do the same. I started with Trapper. Honestly, he's good at learning basics of being a killer. There is an added benefit that someone caught in the traps will notify you where they are and…

That actually sounds really cool. However, they should NOT change Elodie's scream. It's hilarious. First time I heard her hooked I busted out laughing. If my killer had a "belly laugh" emote, I would do it every time I hook her.

As a survivor... I can tell you there are times I jump into the main bldg as I'm being chased, get downed and see, TA DA! The Basement. I cringe when that happens. Granted, I am also one of those survivors that likes to enter the basement to get the chest. So whatever. As Killer, on a lot of maps, the basement is not in a…

Yes, I use BBQ; however, as I was leveling my main killer, I didn't get BBQ until he was 46. I noticed when I swapped out the perk I was using, that I actually started losing more games (or not doing quite as well.) I use it for the blood points. My addons tend to give me pretty decent location on the survivors overall.…

There are a significant number of matches where as a survivor is at the gate I down or hook another survivor. The survivors 99% the gate and now have plenty of time to unhook. For me to leave the hooked survivor to go to the gate gives the other survivors a free rescue and I lose all pressure that I had. Yes, they have the…

It confuses me when the decision is made to ruin someone else's fun because someone ruined your fun. Running to the killer or suiciding doesn't help your team. When I am face camped, I try to stay on the hook as long as possible to give me teammates the most time possible. I always run Kindred as well, so they can see the…

I switched to killer main about a month ago. I've played both sides, more total time on survivor. I know I can't loop very well (I'm purple rank for both survivor and killer) and as killer, I can break some loops. If killer was easy, then why are survivor wait times so long? As killer I get a match extremely fast and…

Totally agree. When I've played as a survivor against her, I won't cleanse unless others are doing it, but yeah, running to a fountain when injured & infected to get a full heal. That's crap. I'm surprised this hasn't been addressed already. A 5 second full heal is way OP.

You realize some killers use it to kill all the arrogant survivors who stay behind. They wait till the EGC is low enough before hooking a slugged player. The time left in the EGC is less than the effect of Blood Warden, so anyone in the game from the point of the hook is dead, it's just a matter of time now. Having it…

Well I just finished a match where the Executioner just faced camp each kill. I got 2 gens completed, but I was the 3rd survivor killed. However, since I did struggle the whole time, the last one was able to find the hatch and then I let myself die. As a killer, I do not camp or tunnel. However, as a survivor, I have…

I agree with the basement hooking. Although I would be opposed to a bonus for basement sacrifices as it would encourage basement camping even more.

I love it and my son also thinks it's an amazing perk.

Why not change the "struggle" phase of being hooked to a series of skill checks like the cages. Then you aren't mashing the button.

lol gotcha. thanks lol

Explain to me the flashlight flicker and how it's toxic. I know survivors usually try to do it to get my attention, but to be honest, when it's been used against me, it's because I've already chased that survivor and I know they are better skilled than me and so I am ignoring them on purpose. Or the target I am currently…

Bullying to me is when players who are significantly better than you does everything they can to keep you from scoring points. When I was a new killer, I encountered this multiple times. Once, I had a red rank (no doubt paired with another player) when I was 16-18. While all the tactics they used are legit game play, it…

I agree with everything you've said. The fastest I've had a gen finished on me is about 15 seconds. When that popped, I wanted to throw the game right there. Solo Q is hit or miss on if the team of survivors will work well together or not. SWFs have a huge advantage. The way I word nerf that is to give a team of 3 a 4%…

Freddy is OP because the top 1% of Freddy players play better than the survivors he is matched against. That's why he's getting nerfed. Of course, the survivors AREN'T the top 1%. They are random. To me, the top 1% of any killer SHOULD be getting more kills than the average. If you can't match a killer's skill by giving…

No it's not. It gives you the most basic of information. When I get a new killer, I watch youtube channels on how to play that killer. I also try to find videos on barebones perks for that killer (ie none of the teachables that high level killers have.) Then my first game is usually just trying to figure out how the power…

I'm a very altruistic survivor. And yes, I have died many times while trying to do an end game collapse rescue (often, that person does escape though, soooo, yea me...? shrugs.) I run SC, Kindred and BT as my standard build and I usually have a medkit. I often do gens injured, but it depends on the killer. I also am not…

You mentioned some companies have made anti-toxicity initiatives. What did they do? How did they deal with this issue?

Personally, I like the chat. I wish that people would actually hang around for a minute to talk (as I am a newer player, only a couple of months, I feel there is a lot I could learn from them.) So far the only real toxic person I ran into was a red rank survivor (I'm a purple rank survivor and killer). Often times I am the…

Deep sigh. I know how you feel. Been farmed way to often and I end up yelling at the screen. I honestly wish there was a "kick" button for hooked survivors that would injure/stun the idiot trying to unhook you.

It honestly depends on how many survivors are left and where they are in relation to each other. If you are unlucky as a killer and 2 people are working on that last gen, one should get off it before it pops and go stand by the gate. I've done this, I've seen it done, and I've experienced it as a killer. If there is only 1…

I would consider a technical win a 3k. But as some of the other people who have commented, one of my main goals is to hook each player and I try to do it before I start on 2nd hooks. (I'm not rigid on that second part, just something that I prefer.) If the match was enjoyable, even if I didn't get any kills, but my points…

My last game of the night is usually a friendly game. Most times, I get 8 to 12K BPs. The survivors will get twice that, usually. It's difficult to communicate and I've never had anyone flame me afterwards either. There have been a few times when survivors have let me hook them so they can max their altru points, but…

Ghostface and Myers. The reason being is that when I was a new player, I wouldn't look around much and they would suddenly appear right next to me as I was on a gen. Scared the crap out of me every time.

I totally agree. Work the matchmaking! Let Killers see the colors of the ranks for the survivors. Make different lobbies based on rank ranges and give the player an option to expand by 1 or 2 ranges or take first available.

I wish they would add the color of the ranks to the survivors in the lobby. As a rank 8 killer, I get reds from time to time and it really sucks getting 4 of them as a swf. But I feel terrible when I get near 20's with only perks from the toon they are playing... When I go into a match, I expect it to be difficult and I…

I just completed this challenge only to have it not register. Is there any way to temporarily block basement challenges from being selected or have a pop up say it is currently bugged? That way other people don't waste their time on them until they are fixed. Also, will we get credit for these when they are fixed? Note: My…

If you play in a team, you'll probably have different perks that work well with the others. In SoloQ, do what you want. This is my perk build for my main: We're Gonna Live Forever, Self-Care, Kindred, and Borrowed Time. I tend to do a lot of healing and I've been farmed too often by others in SoloQ, that unhook me, with…

Again, self-correcting. The blacklist from all 4 survivors should be considered, regardless if it's a SWF or not. You run as survivor in a SWF, 4 people, 4 blacklists. If they box themselves in by blacklisting killers who are better than them, then they will wait longer and longer. If one of your friends is toxic, this is…

In general I would say Trapper or Hag, but only because they are usually used as "defense" killers. Setting up to protect a 3-gen. However, my games against Legion, goes 1 of 2 ways... either he downs everyone really quickly, or I feel, he just ping pongs slashing everyone and racking up points. Now, if the survivors get…
