RIP DBD
Even during the event, Killers can't help themselves but to tunnel off hook and camp. At 5 generators none the less! As one of DBDs biggest fans, I have concluded that the game is dead. I have reached out to behavior several times, I have posted multiple discussions and polls to no avail. I get that sometimes it's a strategy and play style to slug and maybe end game camp the hook after the exit gates have opened. What I do not understand is why killers are tunneling off hook, camping and slugging at 5 gens. My only assumption is those particular killers have no regard to others gameplay or their ability to earn any points. They do not see anything wrong with playing like this. Each post that I have posted in regards to the extreme tunneling I get a bunch of killer mains coming in full attack as if it's not enough that each game I am tunneled.out of. To answer anyone's question, I am just an average player. Not great at looping but not the worst. I game to relieve real life stress. Lately all I have been getting out of playing Dead by daylight is more stress. Unless something is done about the tunneling and camping, I don't foresee myself continuing to play. I do believe that behaviors initial plan to fix this issue was a bit much, but that doesn't mean nothing needs to be done. I'm sad to see this game fall apart like this.

What's the problem? That the player tries to win in competitive game? Very rude.
No, DBD is not dead just because you are losing interest.
If the game stresses you out, play something else for a while. I heard from a reliable source that Civilization is a very good game.
When the killer notices 0 gen popping in a fun event how about laying off till you actually are having a competitive match?
They know tunneling, proxy camping and slugging are broken mechanics with no counterplay so they do it.
Also they know this is a very casual mode and they know 4-5 minutes survivors wont be working gens so they expect a super easy 3/4K no effort
Event means you should be clown for survivor entertainment? Since when? It gives you extra points for completing objectives, otherwise the game mode is same to classic one. I'm not playing event to have fun but to complete it.
very much a counter play to it as i have pointed out many times
Slugging requires teamwork or recover perks, tunneling same, camping same. On the other hand there is no counterplay against sabo, genrush, heal meta, bodyblocks etc. etc.

Slugging beats sabos,slowdowns prevent genrush. Also there is rarely ever any teamwork in solo q.
Its the killers who actually want to face nothing but Solo Q because they are easy wins.
I'm gonna be honest, they absolutely pay for bots to inflate player numbers lmao All those "players" yet I run into the same accounts every other match no matter what time and day, whether I'm Surv or Killer or switch between both in a play session. That should not be happening in a game with this many "players".
Maybe there are not a lot of players on your server in your MMR? I barely recognize any names during my sessions.
Both sides want to use the new thing but since it's an even bigger timesink than before, they rush their objective to compensate.
The result? Killers are tunneling, survivors are genrushing, and using the void feels like a throw.
Add into that the awful BP related changes (less BP from everything, more pricey event items, the offering is STILL personal, ect. ect.) and you have a bad event.
There are plenty of solutions to try to avoid the tunnel and the camp. But it doesn't seem to be very current, even though they tried a few things in this direction on the old PTB.
