Please; lets discuss about this perk I made. (yes the icon is made by me lol)

Why do survivors need to be rewarded for simply playing the game? I thought the reward for playing the game is escaping and getting bloodpoints? Gen speeds are already fast enough, no need to make them any faster, and what happens if multiple people run the perk at the same time?

Ok I really need to let this out because this really made me mad. So, I went to q in as killer and one of the survivors burnt a Haddonfield offering with two Object of Obsessions. Keep in mind that I was playing Trickster because I just wanted to try him out on live for the first few times as terrible as he is. I ended up getting 3 hooks the whole match as I was able to hook both Objects once. The fact I was able to do that is pretty impressive. Ended up getting no kills. I was thinking about camping one of them until they died but I really didn't want to be that guy so of course my soft self wanted to play nice and get away from the hook. I of course got t bagged at the gate and the survivors were holding my game hostage.
This is one of the few matches I've ever had that actually made me so pissed that I legit felt like quitting. It's not the fact that I got destroyed because I have had plenty of games in the past I got destroyed because the survivors were just good at the game and/or I wasn't playing well. If you ever want to feel like you just feel so helpless and have no control over anything, go ahead and experience what I went through.
I just want to ask, why do you people feel the need to ruin other players' experience? What makes it fun to intentionally give killers a hard time? I'm not pointing any fingers or calling anyone out, I just really want to know why this is so fun to you.

This is why no matter what side you play as, you can't really give much thought or care about the experience for the other side. It makes no sense in a 4v1 game to care about each other when you have vastly different goals.

However, solo survivors can't coordinate who will use it. You might have everyone using it or no one using it, we can't see who's going to take the perk. You cannot expect solo queue players to coordinate who will use what perks, so either no one will use it or multiple people will use it (inefficient). It's a literal mess.
Killers on the other hand, can just play nice to avoid DS. No perk required AND they can tell if there's a potential DS in the game based on obsession mechanics. Survivors can't tell if there's NOED, there's no indicator at all.

If anyone is concerned about NOED and doesn't make any attempt to counter it then that's their own fault. You can't tell if there's a DS solely by the obsession mechanics, since there's other obsession perks too. Sure survivors don't know if there's noed but you can't complain about it while not doing anything to counter it when you have the means to do so.

Don't know why you're so aggressive, but not surprised. I know how to play solo que, but it's not an enjoyable experience hence why I prefer swf (2-4 man) so much more.
You're trying to sugarcoat the issue of the solo que experience. I don't think NOED is OP at all, but most people keep forgetting solo que is 10x harder if the killer does so happen to bring NOED. Good for youuuu, if you don't find the experience miserable. Here's a medal and a cookie.

He's literally not being aggressive in the least bit, he's simply saying if he can do it then so can everybody else that continues to complain about this perk with many different counters. It doesn't take much for anybody to use Small Game(free perk) to destroy totems until the perk doesn't work anymore.

Speaking as a survivor main, the DS change was needed, for sure. However, it doesn’t do virtually anything to prevent tunneling (not that it fully did in the first place)
I suggest, in addition to the conditions set so far (touching a gen/totem/healing someone/etc), DS should remove its timer and be active indefinitely until another person is hooked. Some killers are completely abusing this nerf lately and negating any of the anti-tunneling purposes of this perk by just going on massive slugfests, and something really needs to change.
While not a perfect solution, I believe removing the timer is completely necessary now that the conditions are more strict. And if you aren’t a tunneler, this change should not face any opposition from you.

Killers aren't abusing the new DS because objectively DS hasn't changed from before the patch, now you cant use it to gain free progress. It was never meant to be a way to say that the killer can't hook you again until you deem appropriate, it gives you another chance to try and win in chases against the killer. At a certain point the killer isn't tunneling but just doing their job, killing survivors.

However, in solo queue, you'd require everyone to use a perk that might not be needed because the killer isn't using NOED. Killers don't have to use perks to counter DS, a perk survivors might not be using in the first place.
Edit: And killers can tell if survivors are using DS based on whether or not there's an obsession in game.

It doesn't even require everybody bring it, just one person. If people took the time to be that "one person" instead of using the same meta perks that you always see in matches then noed wouldn't be a problem. Im saying if anyone is ever worried about noed then they can always prevent it from even happening in the first place, but time and time again you see complaints about it.

in NOED Rework Comment by Hektic3000 April 6, 2021

Honestly a totem counter isn't even needed, if you bring small game you just keep destroying totems until it doesn't notify you anymore.

No, because you're forcing the survivors off of their objective.
Now, if they were simple stealthing around and you were looking for them, then they would be holding the game hostage, because now they aren't trying to do their objective and are simply preventing you from doing yours.

I cant keep all 4 survivors off of 3 gens forever. If its come to a point where you wont sacrifice anything to progress the situation then that's not my fault.

When survivors hide in lockers and don't do gens for 20 minutes, the killer isn't doing anything so you can say he's holding the game hostage.

I understand trying to use reverse logic on someone but this was a bad example, you said yourself, "survivors hide in lockers and don't do gens for 20 minutes" they are the ones not doing anything to progress the game its not like the killer can do gens.

It becomes an invalid strategy and simply holding the game hostage when you don't try to do anything else. When you hit someone, you don't follow up. When you chase someone, you don't try to catch them, you simply stop at your perimeter. That is holding the game hostage, because you aren't trying to complete your objective.

At the same time, the survivors aren't doing anything else so you can say they're holding the game hostage.

Seriously.
This perk is incredibly strong, and manages to regularly affect more than one survivor at a time (especially when it’s so expectedly paired with Agitation).
You can make every attempt to not be grouped up and still get exposed each and every time Starstruck procs. And 30 seconds isn’t exactly short either. Anything else in this game that Exposes survivors have far heavier restrictions.
So I pose the question, is it’s current cool down too short?

I guess not since they even lowered the cooldown between ptb and live.

@MadLordJack said:
It's amazing how many people consider a 3-gen a valid strategy and ignore just how many killers will do nothing but defend it and will never chase or down anyone unless they are in their little slice of territory.
That's not a valid strategy. That's holding the game hostage. Because you are not trying to complete your objective at all, you're simply trying to stop your opponents from completing theirs.

But if it works how is it not a valid strategy? The survivors shouldn't let themselves be put into the situation to begin with. The game can be progressed but it seems like they didn't want to try so idk if that's the killers problem or the survivors. The only holding hostage the killer can do is by body-blocking in a corner, any other action will be ended after a certain amount of time. Me stopping my opponents from doing their objective isn't something i should do?

“Why would you use Babysitter instead of BT?!”
You don’t. Or just use both.
Babysitter is NOT meant to be a substitute for BT. Babysitter’s help as an anti camping tool is MEANT to be marginal.
Babysitter serves 2 unique purposes that other perks cannot do.
1). It tells YOU, the rescuer, if it’s is safe enough to heal at the hook or not. If you do not see the killer immediately returning to the hook, try to heal at the hook for the sake of time efficiency.
2). Babysitter is meant to help counter the type of killer behaviour whereby the killer doesn’t actively camp the hook, BUT always returns to a hook immediately when a rescue occurs. You are meant to be a distraction that takes aggro AWAY from the rescued survivor so they have a chance to disappear. Even if the killer ignores you, the only scratch marks they will see around the hook are yours.
“But I could just wait till I hear the TR, and then rescue them to give them BT”
It is better to give a teammate a higher probability of disappearing before the killer gets close enough, rather than wait till the killer is close enough for a BT activation. BT doesn’t necessarily stop tunnelling, it simply buys a camped survivor more time. If a killer hits an unhooked survivor with Endurance, but still decides in persisting to tunnel them, there’s nothing stopping them. So if the choice is between helping a teammate disappear entirely, or take an additional hit yet still be hassled, Babysitter is 100% the better choice against a killer NOT camping, but rushes back to the hook almost all the time.
To be 100% CLEAR I want to state that I’m not saying Babysitter is better than BT. I’m saying they serve drastically different purposes. As anti camping measure, BT shines best. For the two intended purposes of Babysitter i’ve posted here, BT cannot provide help with these 2 aspects.

Its like survivors have options to help someone being camped but they just never bring them and then complain that they have no options.

I don't know what survivors you face but the only time I get a 3 gen is because the survivors are potatoes. Anyone survivor with a decent amount of playtime, swf or random, knows not to do all the gnes on one side of the map. I can chase them off a gen or kick it with pgtw but I can't guard gens and chase survivors at the same time. There's 4 survivors and only 1 killer. Like I said earlier. If even 3 survivors take one of the 3 gen they will complete it.

Its almost like survivors just don't try anymore or something and expect to be let out of the match. If its come to a point where we blame killers for trying to win by being "sweaty", "try-hard", or even blaming them for "holding the game hostage" what's the point of playing killer anymore.

Ahhhh...
This right here should be a war crime. He was running surveillance and over charge and NOED for some reason.
He basically chose his 3 gen at the start of the match and did nothing but glue himself to it, we all tried to break it at the start. We were on one of the pre school maps and he had a easy 3 gen layout.
It was definitely a change of pace but in the worst possible way. The match went on for about 40 mins until I sacrificed myself after getting a head ace. Someone brought in a key and all 3 escaped.
I understand there’s a strategy in there, but when he wasn’t committing to any chases or even hooking, what is the point. Best suicide I’ve even done.

Sounds like none of you gave up any hook states or anything. He did nothing to hold the game hostage, the only reason you all were in the game that long is because you all decided you just had to leave at all costs. Its funny how you only showed the killers score and nothing else, that just seems a little fishy to me.

Don't know if they deserve it or not, I can see both sides of that one, but I will say that I don't know why someone would be paying that much attention to another survivor in the first place. I also don't get the logic of making things harder for your own team. They may not be contributing anything if you don't see them doing so, but you're guaranteeing that they won't be if you take it upon yourself to remove them from the game.

If you arent helping the team escape you're making things harder for the team. If everybody is on death hook except for you and you didn't help us get gens done why should you live? There's been plenty of times where I've seen a meg walking the entire map, to save sprint burst, not touching a gen when she has more than enough time to at least try and you're saying she deserves to get away?

If survivors tried to bait a camping killer away, it would be a 4k. This is bad strategy against a camping killer. If the survivors do gens, it will be a 2k.
But either way, a player being able to totally stop another player from playing the game is a major flaw in the game.

Not really when the killers sole job is to kill and take people out of the game.

Do you have selective reading or something? I say one thing and you counter argue with something I'm not even talking about. At no point was I saying I have the right to harass someone, be racist to them, etc. The only thing I ever argued was that it's my right to read what I want. Nothing you just linked said bhvr has the right to determine if I'm allowed to read something or not. It seems like you just want to argue about what people are allowed to say which is NEVER want I was talking about.

My point is that NO ONE should be spouting hateful/racist things for anyone to see, even if you want to.

My own solution, offer BP bonuses for playing the side of the game that needs numbers.
If the ratios are off by a certain amount, give the side that needs numbers a BP bonus for playing the needed side.
For example
When there are 5 survivors for every killer, or 3 survivors for every killer, offer a 20 percent BP for picking the under populated side.
This is what a lot of dungeon-matchers will do in some MMO's when a certain class like healer or tank is missing - they'll offer an exp bonus for playing the needed class.

Honestly that would be perfect since it'd give them a chance to flex the statistics they always talk about.

You said accidentally. I did not. Tapping a gen is NOT "Working on a gen". Its tapping it. Working on it requires it to progress. Its been a thing since day 1 release to tap the gen to stop it from regressing. This is a strat, like tunneling, camping and slugging. All 3 have specific perks(albeit mostly useless). You wanna stop Gen tapping, use Ruin.
DS has a specific niche, because its the ONLY Anti tunneling perk. I don't even use it but seriously, tapping a gen shouldn't deactivate it. That's as bad as punishing the killer for camping. Which is a legit strat even tho i cant flippin stand it.

Tapping a gen is putting progress into said gen. If it wasnt then gen tapping when old ruin was a thing wouldnt have worked. If its just a tap whats to say that tapping it over and over again until completion isnt you working on a gen?

What survivor players refuse to understand is if you are closer to being removed from the game, you are a high priority target. Especially if your jackass friends are playing hyperaltruistic, because that means it'll be easy to bait them into making a stupid play and getting you both killed. That's not 'tunneling' or 'toxic' or whatever the ######### else, it's target prioritization.
