Okay devs, facecamping is definitely a “legit strategy”

I just played the game where i got facecamped, farmed, and then downed, farmed, and then killed all within 1 minute. then in the post game chat the killer says it was “for a challenge.” seriously?
how unfair is it to make these challenges that encourage mean, unfair and boring gameplay??? seriously it’s ridiculous.
please, fix your game!!

so body blocking is fair?
the game isn’t ruined if one body blocks. you can just down the body blocker instead. camping at 5 gens isn’t justifiable, especially if i did nothing to upset the killer, and especially if a challenge is encouraging them to do so. i think it’s more of a problem with the devs making challenges that encourage camping.
Which challenge?
the killer said it was for a challenge.
i don’t play killer, but i’ve heard multiple killers use this “challenge” as an excuse for camping
absolutely ridiculous.
i'm not accusing you for body blocking. Since i'm playing both side i do understand how it feels to be facecamp. But this body blocking i mentioned not just 1, some SWF body blocks with 2 ppl when killer try to hook. If it's a legit strategy, poor poor killer side.
And yeah that facecamping too need to be punish severly when killer camping hooked survivor while there are no other survivor around. You can't tell killer camping when s/he circling around hooked survivor because the other survivor around hook trying to save.
sorry for double post, i belive there is none XD
i think they should make it to where if you camp when there are still 5 gens, you get 0 bloodpoints for entire match. seems fair.
Camping is a strategy.. its sucky and not a good strategy but ya. If you dont like getting farmed either play swf with people with BT or run Dstrike and deadhead to help mitigate it.
On the killer side, body blocking is very situational and most times not worth. Unless the hook is far it's not gonna do anything except give the killer free hits and it still takes atleast two blocks if not three. If the do wiggle out you injured everyone so your job is easier.
If your having a lot of trouble with survivors body blocking then run iron grasp, agitation or mad grit.
I suspect the challenge they're referring to is the one to sacrifice people during the EGC.
That said, many killers facecamp in the endgame, challenge or no. It's the best way to secure a kill at that point - and they're already punished for it by the ranking system. So yeah, it feels really crappy for the survivor, but it is a legit strategy.
The devs have said over and over they will not punish camping (with the exception of the emblem penalty)
wasn’t endgame. it was at 5 gens.
it’s a reality that they are losing players left and right because of it though. there’s no ignoring that...
I didn't mean EGC, I refer to anything after the generators are completed as the "endgame", just from a general gaming perspective. Sorry for the confusion.
Camping wouldn't happen that much if they got a little notification showing they're losing blood points; if the killer stays within 16m of the hook. Deviousness would trickle down very slowly at first (so as to not punish killers who find someone near the hook), but after 30 seconds it takes a nosedive. Then when it reaches 0, Chaser (and eventually brutality, then hooks) does the same. People wouldn't want to hardcore camp if there's a tangible punishment. This way they depip and get nothing from the match. A literal waste of time.
Oh look, another survivor only player complaining about camping because they weren't good enough to avoid the killer in the first place. Before you cry some more, how about you play both sides and try out killer for a bit. Once you experience 10 well coordinated groups you will be singing a new tune.
And for those asking for punishment, there already is one, your stupid teammates could keep pushing out the gens. The faster they complete the match, the less blood points and kills the killer gets.
Just because you don't like an aspect of the game doesn't make it wrong. It may not be fun for you, but not everything is supposed to be fun.
-Its not fun to be looped around the entire map and have 3 gens pop back to back
-Its not fun getting hit by pallets over and over
-Its not fun to get body blocked by three people while you're trying to hook someone
-Its not fun to be blinded by two or three people after you finish a long chase
-Its not fun for a killer to have to deal with borrowed time
-Its not fun for killers to get repeatedly flashlight clicked or t-bagged over and over
-Its not fun when a killer finally catches a tryhard and they DC because they can't handle getting hooked or killed
-its not fun for a killer to be doing a good job through out the whole match and the survivors escape with a key
-its not fun when survivors hide through out the whole match and barely try to do the gens because they're too scared to do the gens and don't want to get caught
-Its not fun when survivors dc because they don't like the map
-its not fun when survivors dc because they don't like the killer
-Its not fun when survivors suicide on hook because they're angry babies
-Its not fun when a swf on comms coordinate to repeatedly loop and locker stun the killer
-Its not fun when a killer is trying to hook someone only to find someone broke the hook
-its not fun for Trapper to find out his trap was broken
-Its not fun to play Plague because her power depends on the Survivors actions
-Its not fun to face a group of survivors that have 4 toolboxes and one or two brand new parts and power through all the gens in 5 minutes.
Stop crying like babies. You win some and you lose some. No matter what match you play, someone will end up not having fun. Just accept the death and move on to the next game.
The only thing I think the devs should do is to make sure that after you face a killer once, they shouldn't pair you up with them(or killer type) again until you are matched up with several different killers.
"Stop crying like babies."
Buddy you just wrote a whole essay. Sounds like you're the only one crying but what do I know?
If you want killers punished for trying to ensure a kill, get the devs to punish survivors for everything I mentioned first.
Seems to me, you and everyone else that cry’s about camping and tunneling just want to face neutered killers who just chase you and let you win.
holllyyyyyyy my god yet another kid who needs to a pull a "what about this" no one cares dude. if you wanna cry about body blocking which is completely fine, go make your own post.
"Oh look, another survivor only player complaining about camping because they weren't good enough to avoid the killer in the first place." what a cringe reply. stop acting like youre perfect and have never been downed/hooked before. what a cop out response from a typical reddit killer. be more helpful
And yet, your post did nothing to help the conversation at all. Just more whining and insulting.
I get hooked, killed, tunneled and camped all the time. But I understand that it’s all part of the game and a lot of the times I made a mistake that lead me to getting spotted or caught. I don’t blame the killer, never have and never will. I don’t come crying on the forums about how unfair it is. I just accept my loss and move on to the next match. If I ever happen to feel that I’ve had enough, I’ll just take a break from the game and play something else.
If you ever bothered to read any of my posts, you would have seen me admitting multiple times that I’m a Potato at this game. I don’t delude myself into thinking that I’m some kind of pro and I don’t have aspirations to ever be one.
You should take your own advice and be more helpful to the discussion. The topic is should camping be punished. My answer was that it is already punished by survivors completing the generators and the killer getting minimal blood points. Apparently players don’t think that’s enough and want the killer to get nothing for the chase, capture and hook that they got, as well as for the time they spent making sure the survivor doesn’t get away.
Sure, it’s not an optimal strategy, but with the way the game is today, sometimes that’s all some killers can do. Not everyone plays Spirit, Nurse or Freddy and can end loops almost instantly.
Rather than crying or complaining, how about you and all the whiners actually come up with some actual constructive alternatives to discuss.
And before anyone thinks I’m a killer main, I’ve only been playing for a little over a month, I have Claudette maxed out to Prestige II, I have two other survivors at base leve 50, and only one level 50 killer with minor experience with two other killers.
People need to play both sides to see it’s not all peaches and cream for everyone.
imaging making a salty insulting post then getting triggered when someone does it back. nice double standard kiddo
*checks Sodium levels in this discussion, blinks then runs*
They have lost way more killers than survi it's games take way longer to get into as survivor. And if youre in red rank your most likely getting a purple or green rank killer at best lol on console anyway.
I rarely get a killer in red ranks as survivor. Which is unfortunate cause I almost always get at least one other res rank with me while solo queing
And ds'ing after I down and hook someone else is fair? 4 perfectly safe loops back to back is fair? 3 gens in 80 seconds is fair? Ruin gone in 5 seconds is fair? God loops on atleast 70% of the maps? Borrowed time is fair? No.
More whining and insulting. He’s right.
You only responded to insult him, how is that contributing to the post? I’m telling this to you so hopefully you won’t continue this. It doesn’t contribute to ANYTHING but arguments.
Bruh body blocking is just free injures and sometimes even downs sometimes you don't get the hook but it most scenarios it just helps you that you get multiple hits
He wasn't crying, he was pointing out that survivors do all this crap to killers but whine when the killer does something back.
Devs have fixed it so survivors can body block but killers cannot.
Youre not being helpful either .Avis isnt coming off as "perfect" bro. This is a discussion forum. We are only discussing, but NOO some of us seem to continue to want to be toxic even outside the game. Jesus christ man. We can ALL agree both sides suck sometimes and we cant do much about it, the game was flawed and will stay flawed. Before anyone ces for me ,yea i didn't give much thought to this, tho i feel i made my point. Oh and yea AvisDeene i agree with youre point of view %100 . 4 V1 is powerful in my opinion. Every killer has a different style like any other survivor main
The rudeness is unnecessary, and they're actually right. Bodyblocking is only reportable when it's done to a survivor, and even then only if done for an extended length of time.
