I like bloodpoints, so if a killer/survivor communicates to me that they want to farm, I don't mind doing so. The grind in this game is ridiculous and it's nice to have a chilled game once in a while.
I get hooked, teammate saves before I can let go, I get hooked again, saved instantly, killer doesn't want to hook me again because he doesn't want to kill me. Should be bannable.
Farming is not always forced by the killer. You can just do gens and escape. Which is not different to normal matches, especially those with bad matchmaking.
there are instances where a killer may force you to farm, but those you can report. Most of the time it’s not the case though.
People are new to the game let them be. Though rather farming when I was new I always thought it was faster to just play normally then get to the next match rather than staying in one match farming for a long time.
I farm because I'm a survivor main and I understand how frustrating things can be and personally I'd appreciate a round without a killer camping or tunneling, so I try to do the same. Plus, I honestly do find farming rounds way more fun. Everything is repetitive in the game, so farming is actually a nice change
The bad side of the community is people like you who refuse to let other people have fun. Not everyone on the planet is going to do what YOU want. You're not that special.
######### deactivating the dc penalty one in three matches i actually get a whole team (survivor and killer side) that no one disconnects. DC PENALTIES MUST STAY and be ramped up since people are not caring as much.
NOW to your post on farming. there are ways to farm to make it fun and enjoyable. Also a farming match here or there is not a bad thing. but every match sucks and I agree with that. but every now and then sure a farming match can be fun and the dc? well penalties are for things that you do that is against the game rules and disconnecting is one such thing so it should stay. if you find you are in a farm match you can just do gens, open a gate and get out. if you are forced to farm then you start recording them forcing you to farm and you report and submit a ticket about them so that you get it noticed. Devs have stated that farming is NOT a bannable thing but FORCING you to farm is another thing all together.
Okay, but then explain to me where is the difference between normal farming and forced farming.
In my opinion, every farming lobby is forced, since I can't just quit the game and find a new one, otherwise, I get banned for it - dc penalty is the problem.
As a killer main I only initiate a farm if there’s an archive challenging that I don’t feel like working for. Farming isn’t fun or profitable outside of the archives imo
alright. to be forced to farm is when you don't want to farm buit the killer keeps downing you and letting the others get you healed up and then downs just you once again, sometimes body blocks you so you can't get away and then you haven't gotten much but they got everything.
now a straight farming game is where everyone gathers around and the killer hooks each person twice, each person gets two unhooks and heals, gens, totems etc. this is what most people think about.
Now I do farming differently, I'll chase people, I'll play normally till I decide I've had enough hooks and then I just stop hooking people (usually after getting one for each (bbq stacks) I will then just down them and let them get up and keep moving, but it's a farm because I'm not going to go for the kill, so everyone is getting out, but it's more of a game instead of a farm just with the outcome determined by me. :)
the first one i listed is the one that's toxic and if you dc from that I'd suggest that you include that fact that it was your only way to get out (though all you realy need to do is crawl around for 4 minutes (I know boring) so when you report the farming, mention the fact that you dc'd because you couldn't get out any other way really. I mean if you've built up a huge penalty marker so you have a long wait time for a dc and now it's even longer and maybe the devs mnght remove a single penalty marker under your account I dunno what they could do to the player that was in that spot.
Just do the gens (as always) and GTFO. There's no way the system could track if the killer is farming or not.
I mostly end my huntress session with at least 1-2 "friendly" games. Playing only with Discordance & Bitter Murmur, just standing on a hill for longshots. In my exp 50% of the groups just rush the gens and leave early, and the other 50% appriciate the chill game. Don't see a problem here.

people need to stop actinglike this some big esports game because it not meant to be fun and a little goofy sometimes
how am I?
Farming is always forced by the killer.
If survivors want to farm and killer doesn't, he can end the game in like 1 minute. The other way around, it takes like 10 Minutes
Go play Farming Simulator if you like farming.
The game itself is as boring as farming in DbD, so leave the game. Bad side of the community.

Play Farming Simulator if Farming is fun, leave this game if you have the intention of destroying the game.

I also like Bloodpoints, but I don't want to have a boring time while earning them.

Playing normally is faster than farming. Atleast as Killer... if you are good.

Farming is fine if your archive quest is too hard

I think it depends, when I started dbd about 2.5 years ago, I liked farming since I had no idea how to maximize bp and I didn't knew what bbq was.
I liked farming when there was 5 bps.
I think it depends if the killer needs bp for x reason, same as survivors, maybe they want to prestige and not worry about them.
Excuse me, but if I'm able to get my sweet sweet 32k + wglf, I will gladly accept it. The grind in this game is unbearable.
You just answered your own question.
Other people are still in the exact boat you have described here, even if you aren't.

Oh and I’ll farm a bit if one or two people dc or kill themselves on hook immediately. Their teammates shouldn’t be punished for them quitting.
Yup^^^

Farming is always boring. For any game.
”Farming is holding the game hostage for 10 mins”
wha-.... what? You do know you can still do gens and escape if you choose not to farm right? The Killer cannot FORCE you to farm.
Farming maybe boring to you and some others but for the most point your alone on this one.
Farming once in awhile is okay to me. Breaks up the always sweaty try-harding and just reminds everyone they are still humans.
Also useful for getting some of the more unreasonable challenges done.
Just do the gens (as always) and GTFO. There's no way the system could track if the killer is farming or not.

That's what farming is and when it's okay to farm. With a 2x bp event, 4 or 5 offerings + BBQ/WGLF.
You get like 250k from a single match. And how these other people want to farm, you get 25k per match and it takes the same time.
10 Minutes for 25k is not worth it.
10 Minutes for 250k IS worth it
all my friends who are good at the game dislike farming because it's boring. Seems like the community is split into two with this one;
1st Group: Bad Players - Love farming no matter what
2nd Group: Good Players - Hate Farming, or only farm under certain conditions (like 6x BP during events and using offerings)
