Increasing the amount of points lost for being near hook would probs work cause sitting next to someone for 2 mins currently gives you like -10 in hunter and let’s you pip up even though I “earned it” by standing there slapping meat.

As long as the heavy penalty doesn't apply when generators are all done that might work.

Actually, there are occasions though when a survivor is super greedy and might force a chase near the hook so that isn't always the killer's fault. They would need to figure out a way to pause the point reductions when a survivor is in range or something.

You'll go back after you get faced camped or your teammates kill themselves on the hook don't worry. You will miss the consistent blood points even for bad matches and will run back too. I don't enjoy killer for different reasons but I do it for BP.

We got Jebaited. It's out fault. Pretty good Job on Ghostfaces add-on. Actually nerfing the fastest recovery time on an already weaker killer, pretty good job indeed.
I sincerely from the bottom of my heart hope Evil Dead and VHS come out really strong cause we don't deserve to be toyed with and jebaited like this everytime.

I highly doubt a majority of people in here will play VHS. As soon as they get 1v1 by one survivor they will come back to DBD and settle for the 2k no problem when it happens.

Funny how you presume so much about taking side but you are very wrong, I used to play lots of killer but have mainly switched to survivor.
But If you want a solution to camping that is a lot harder than we all know. The best in game example I can draw from is pyramid head's cages. They place the survivor somewhere away from the killer and out of sight, and if the killer gets close it moves. Obviously this is killer specific and was somehow implemented as a base mechanic with hooks. Well camping would be impossible but wouldn't be a great fix in my opinion.
Pausing the timer when the killer was near the hook failed in the past so lets just throw that out the window.
Phasing the killer to swipe air is your best bet along with at least 1 or more other survivors to rescue, potentially with BT.
The perks I mentioned before do help to some degree, but worst case is you have bubba camping so lets focus on that.
Bubba's chainsaw can be toggled until he needs to use it, baiting it out is really the only strategy as once he starts using it he cannot stop and takes a long time to recover before using it again. Trading with BT is always an option although not the best. Faking an unhook if you have dead hard or sprint burst is always an option if your brave. Anything else would require a new mechanic to be added or changed and i am honestly not sure how to go about that without it being able to be abused too much like the last one.

None of that was directed at any one person. It's very well known that the forums have more killer mains than survivors scrolling through the forums. Just look at the ratios when it comes to killer issue topics versus survivor ones. At least you're trying to think of healthy solutions and not resorting to " these are accepted killer strategies" ..

That guy above mention more BP because clearly BBQ and chili isn't enough for some people, and I'm all for that but it wouldn't completely fix the problem.

I get some of you to think I'm trying to remove a strategy but that's not the case. I'm not advocating removing proxy camping.. I'm talking full-blown face camping on killers with the ability to one-shot multiple people. Forcing healthier gameplay experienced isn't a bad thing like you guys are making it out to be. Do you guys truly believe you're not forcing your gameplay experience on the survivor sitting on the hook all game? In what world is that a healthy fun gameplay experience?

At the end of the day, I'm not sure of a perfect solution and there are no ways to test out any decent recommendations. The PTB hardly ever gets utilized as much as it should. If I manage to think of something even a majority of killers can agree with ill let you guys know.

BTW, if anyone has a video on the previous implementation of the hook timer you guys claim was in the game please shoot me a video. I took a long break from the game and didn't get to experience or hear of it. I'm still wondering if it was a thing.

You literally said…On so many occasions if a killer loses gen too quickly he instantly begins to camp his first hook.
So don’t let the Killer lose gen so quickly. It’s why everybody asks for the opposite of the End Game Collapse (that they mentioned) but have yet to see. Anyway you went from gens are too quick and killers camp to killers camp because they are bad.
so we now need a solution that makes killers ‘git gud’ instead of just fixing something you already admitted but wanna back track on lol.
Anyway, as someone else mentioned. Your hook timer use to stop when killer was camping and the end result was survivors purposely chasing themselves to the hook survivor to keep killer busy, hooked survivor alive and gens a still popping. Survivors got what they wanted and abused it~

Too quickly for them and their make-believe belief that he couldn't have done anything differently to stop that gen from going. It has nothing to do with the reality of the situation considering behavior has statistics on their end and from what I see on streams, other killers aren't having trouble getting a 4k.

This entire forum is full of mainly killer mains so there is no point in responding after this. One thing is for sure, even if gen speeds were extended a majority of you would defend face camping as you're doing now. I'm advocating for a solution that is balanced in favor of both parties. If you guys are okay with Face camping then good for you but I'm not.

By your own logic…slow down gen speed and less/no camping. Your welcome~

wrong. You have to implement something that actually works.

Even if they slowed down Gen speed some killers would still face camp because they are bad at the game. You have to implement a fix in another way.

I personally never had such a problem, at least in your way. If i see killer does something like camping it's a win-win scenario even if I'm on hook. Cause while i buy as much time as possible, they do gens and I hope they leave killer with nothing cause they see killer is camping. (I run Kindred)
So on part where u are asking for solutions it won't work the way u think. I don't care if puppies camp me.

There is no communication in solo queue two people can stop doing gens and make their way to the hook and get nothing accomplished.

Just because it hasn't happened to you doesn't mean it's not happening large scale dude. And not everyone is going to be okay with sitting on a hook the entire game. A majority of those people will just not even struggle dude, cmon..

No. Camping is a, while scummy, but viable killer strategy. Survivors have more than enough perks to help remedy this like camaraderie, kindred, borrowed time, and several others.
And in the end the killer is giving up so much generator pressure just to maybe secure 1 kill. Besides the devs did at one point have a system where if the killer was very close to a hooked survivor the time would pause. Of course you can imagine that survivors did abuse the heck out of this and was quickly removed.
It does suck when it happens to you, but you can't forcibly change the way everyone plays constantly. It's just part of the game.

Those things only work on m1 killers and only versus very bad ones.

I wasn't around for that implementation so I can't comment on how good or bad it was. If it was active at endgame then it was implemented poorly and if the radius was too large that is bad as well. I'm talking about face camping easiest swing of your life distance that needs to be negated early game.

I'm sorry but if you have a problem with that you're part of the problem. Plenty of killers 4 k consistently without doing any of this " viable strategy" .. So basically, you're okay with sucking the enjoyment out of thousands of players to please the face camping Leatherface. Good for you man.

There's a perk that freezes timer if your teammate is nearby. Try out Camaraderie if everyone camps u.

That's a good start but it's only active during the struggle phase and the killer can still just wait it out.

And let's be honest, who in the solo queue is going to take that perk.

in Give survivors an objective that extends hook timers to counter campers. Comment by Regionlock September 29, 2021

Noed shouldn't even be in the game, it's a trash perk. So is adrenaline and every other perk that rewards bad play for pressing no key on your keyboard. We should give killers a skillcheck the size of DS to activate when all gens are done so we can all experience just how bad some people who run Noed are. If they can't even lad a skillcheck they don't deserve insta downs and free speed for failing to do their role.

And the just cleanse totems isn't an excuse for this garbage perk. Not everyone is running a full stack SWF and the RNG placement of these totems can be very bad at times. Anyone who says it's fine is mostly a killer main who rely's on it. Any decent killer hates the dam perk too.

in Small game should tell how much totems are standing Comment by Regionlock July 17, 2020

DS, DH, aura reading per you prefer, healing perk, or if you're running a med-kit just use anything else you like. DS and DH are about the only two things I find mandatory when I'm playing solo queue. Sadly DH is a laggy mess and hasnt been working well lately, but I'll still take it over others because I'm too use to it.

Could it be possible that the killer saw something you didnt? I'm not saying its not possible that the killer merely didnt know when its appropriate to slug and when its a waste of time, but sometimes things like discordance lets you know when your attention is needed elsewhere to prevent a gen from popping while your busy getting to a hook.

For some matches that was definitely a possibility, but I'm 100 percent sure of a few matches that were just not even debatable. I've been left on the floor after leading the killer away from my entire team. I was basically never hooked the entire match a couple times earlier today.

Trying to bleed people out is dumb, but really...its never too early to start applying pressure. If I can get a 2nd person down, I'm not just gonna let em run along because X amount of gens havent been done yet and I'm not in a bad position yet.

I get that but I can't pretend like I haven't seen them just leave someone on the ground with absolutely no vision on another survivor. DS wasn't a factor in a majority of those I've witnessed as well. I don't mind slugging and I get it's necessary sometimes, but I don't want to see a passive unbreakable being introduced and I feel it's coming at this rate.

If it was like one time per match before a certain amount of gens are done, I guess it's fine. I just don't think a passive unbreakable is balanced after all 5 gens pop. That would be too much IMO.

I legit just ran into the same hacker speed hacking on killer on survivor. He and his two friends were flying in the air and teleporting to me somehow. Everytime the killer hit them they would auto heal themselves too. I'll post it here if my geoforce experience managed to capture it. I haven't checked.

Exactly this. Against Solo Queue Killers are stronger than survivors. A group of friends who aren't the same rank is also favored for the killer. A SWF group of similar ranks will generally win vs a killer of the same rank. And there's quite a bit of smurfing going on in this game, but that's not a balance issue but it does lead to a bit of confusion regarding balance.

On a good map for killer even with a strong SWF they lose if equal skill. I've seen really good teams get stomped quick on certain maps. Hard to tell what will happen in matches because maps are on rotation and a majority of the map is rng.

Hey, the devs said ranks don't matter.

There are some points they don't, but for the most part at the minimum it shows they have a general idea of they are doing. I've seen level 13-20 loop better than some red ranks so it has some truth to it, but lets be real on average that is rare.

Survivors are only OP versus killers with a SWF or a super efficient red rank team on a survivor favored map. Killer is not a suppressed role like people make it out to be. My solo queue survivor matches at red ranks on PC can testify to that. It's like a 80 percent favored to killers at rank 1 atm because matchmaking is so bad.

Nothing about Ruin took skill when RNG is involved. You either get 1 or 10 skill-checks sometimes more. Looking for the totem was RNG unless you had a map or detectives hunch for the most part. You could have memorized certain totem spawns, but it doesn't change the rng nature of it.

The devs basically explained this perfectly. Ruin wasn't affecting veteran players much at all, but was heavily affecting newer players. It was basically carrying killers to ranks they don't deserve for the longest time. Then these killers have to play with no Ruin and blame game balance for not being Rank 1 anymore. Welcome to DBD
