    I am anxious too, especially around Killer.

    For me, it helps to play with music. I know the basics enough and know that with music I am handicapping myself, so that sets my expectations low. Then I do what I need to in order to get at least a kill or two.

    The other thing that helps? Don't follow what the community says a "win" is. Set your own goals. The game doesn't have a definite wincon no matter what there being MMR, grades, etc. say. Define what a win is for you. For me, it's a 2k + 10 hooks that I count as the start of "winning as Killer", enough to pip me every round if done correctly to hit Gold IV which is all I ever care to play for if I want the monthly BP anyway.

    But, if I only 1k with any number of hooks, no biggie - it's just a minor win, because I got SOMEONE out and the whole team did not escape unscathed. The only time I feel like I lost is if I 0k, which is rare. This keeps my MMR low enough to not worry playing this way, and it also means I can use whatever perks I like, play how I want and who I want, and still feel like I achieved something. I do still typically 3-4k most rounds, but having my wincon set lower than the community says is the goal makes me feel less anxious. Maybe that will help you.

    It might!! I tend to be really hard on myself when I lose games (especially on my favorite killers) so setting my standards a little lower would probably help me feel less paranoid about doing the 'right' or 'wrong thing'

    I personally use Anonymous Mode to help. Then people getting pissed at me for whatever reason doesn't matter as much, since they don't know who I am.

    It also helps to try and remember that you can't actually be banned for playing the game regularly, even if you hard camp and tunnel every single match you play, not bannable. Even if you make a mistake as Survivor and let your team down, still not bannable.

    Playing in a way someone finds personally objectionable (like camping, slugging, tunneling, genrushing, flashlight saving, etc.) or just making mistakes or playing bad aren't bannable in any way.

    You have to be doing something super maliciously in order to catch a ban. As long as you're not bodyblocking someone in a corner for the entire game or throwing abuse at them in endgame or deliberately abusing gamebreaking bugs then you're good. Generally when people get banned, they're aware they're doing something dodgy and think they won't get caught. If you're out there worrying if you'll do something to get banned, chances are you're not.

    I should try to put anonymous mode on! That would probably help a lot ๐Ÿซ‚

  • @AnchorTea said:

    There was a bug like this also in past patches. I hope it was a cheater but it's a little unlikely.

    I had my duo with me who isn't a cheater and then we had 2 randoms; it is possible but I don't really know

  • @Bwsted said:

    Did anybody wiggle off before you did (including flashlight/pallet) saves?

    I don't think so

    I don't remember anyone having flashlights

  • @Sava18 said:

    Don't worry about a report, you'll be fine. Although that's crazy both of you could get stuck.

    Thank you :")

    It was really weird and for a minute I couldn't move until I got off the doctor's shoulders and I just got like taken out of the spot

  • @StarLost said:

    Won't happen.

    BHVR is...very lax about moderation in general. To be banned, you'd need to be doing something egregious, and then they would probably need footage of it and a witness statement signed by at least a dozen people...okay I'm kidding about that last part, but you get my drift.

    I was gonna say like, i don't think I've done anything that crazy bad in the past and they couldn't just ban me for no reason

  • @Krazzik said:

    I mean if you're actually worried that you'll get a ban over letting a couple of your friends go months ago, I think you're good. Not only did it happen too long ago for them to do anything about it now, if it's like two isolated incidents, they're even LESS likely to do anything, they tend to focus on repeat offending.

    Thank you for this :") i don't really remember if they were isolated or not but they happened around the time Wesker cane out I believe and we haven't done it since (im the one who's worrying over it my friends are lucky enough not to care)

  • @SmolBlob said:

    Don't worry about it.

    Thank you for this it helped calm me down

  • @[Deleted User] said:

    ๐Ÿ™€

    Yea :( im really really stressed over it

  • @[Deleted User] said:

    Iโ€™d say no. To me teaming would be the survivor purposely leads you to the other survivor and in turn you let them escape for this.

    I remember one time i hooked a zarina while everyone else was still alive and the meg let her die then expected me to give her hatch after??

  • @o7o said:

    I've been having the same issue since I've started playing, and even though I live in the midwest, I shouldn't be averaging 76-120 ping with good internet and connected to ethernet. I am relatively close to both NA servers for it to not even be that high, and I have even tried changing DNS servers and that maybe removed.. 4 ping?

    It actually sucks because that ping may not seem bad but it's definitely noticeable. There's also streamers I watch that live on the east coast with 1gig up and down that average the same ping as me and that doesn't seem legit at all. I just assume it's bad netcode because there have been instances where trials I've been in almost crapped the bed and it definitely feels like DBD servers more than my own internet because I average 20-40 ping on MW2.

    It could be my internet as it's not just dbd that has bad connection but it feels like it's gotten severely unplayable the past month or so

    You cant be banned for slugging for the 4k.

    Or hard tunneling someone early.

    Or face camping at 5 gens.

    Just dont expect nice, respectful comments out of any of these.,

    Now, i said in another thread and i say it again here, the killer should not be able to force a four min stalemate where the last surv cant repair their way out and the only option it has is to hide or give up.

    exactly! its unfun for both sides if the killer has to keep running around a 3-gen and the survivors just have to hide or give up that's never my intention to force someone to give up

    So first you say you bled her out because you needed the 4k but then it becomes you were gonna give her hatch? If you planned on giving her hatch you could have picked her up and let her walk around until you found Dwight. As for getting banned? You won't. They don't even ban actual hackers half the time. Keeping up with their guidelines is not behaviors strong point. Survivor mains(including me) would call you a sweat in that scenario and obviously behavior doesn't like people being bled out since they're considering base kit unbreakable. But if it was an accident and you apologized then who cares. Mikaela definitely isn't sitting in their room staring at the wall thinking about how she was bled out in dbd a few months ago. Don't let it stress you out anymore. Maybe just picture yourself as a survivor and if you feel like the situation sucks for them and they don't deserve it. Change it. If a killer has a bad game with no hooks I will always give them kills, even in rank reset because in the end there's a human with actual feelings on the other side of that game and I want them to not have a completely miserable experience. I'm still iridescent 1 by the next day everytime. The situation sucked for the Mikaela. The way you handled it rectified it.

    thank you :) i know how it feels to get slugged for a lot of the game so i felt so awful and really hoped i could find the other person just so she didn't have to stay on the ground anymore but at the end she was a very good sport about it and i hope i didn't ruin anything

    (im aware im a yucky little sweat too sometimes wesker just hits different lol)

    exactly! i had no intention to hold the game for very long, i was just trying to find the last person but i unfortunately kept finding the Mikaela so i just had to kind of wait for her to either keep getting picked up or bleed out while the last guy does whatever

    they only try to make you feel bad, which is highly toxic. They dont want you to be happy about your win because they are very bad at loosing. You can be sure the next killer they go against would face brand new parts, bodyblocks, maybe even some sabo plays. All of which is fine. But then they cant be entitled to have a "fair" killer player you know?

    so dont worry ;) Its the nature of a PVP game that your opposing player might not feel to happy with how the game goes, just as you will have rounds yourself that will taste bad to you. Diffrence between good sportsmanship and bad one is if i am going to blame the other player for my mistakes or if im just moving on.

    I got tunneled yesterday by a demogorgon, because appearantly i was the weak link and maybe also i got hook farmed, but i felt like that round in particular i just did very bad. And he took FULL advantage of it. I shouted, yes i did. I was mad like hell and super salty XD but i didnt write anything to them, instead i choose to take a short break, eat something and then after cooldown try again. The next rounds alredy were better.

    exactly!!!!!!!!!! i just apologized and moved on although afterwards i started getting anxious that maybe the salty person reported me even though i didn't really do anything super super wrong and like half the swf literally gave up at like 2 gens so what else was i supposed to do lol

  • @Terion said:

    You did nothing wrong, you wanted that 4k and you got it. You dont need to justify it even. Looping, getting stunned and having your hook bodyblocked isnt fun for the killer either, yet survivors do it all the time.

    Basic rule is: as long as you dont cheat, its viable. ANYTHING. "Slugging", "genrushing", "tunneling", bodyblocking etc. Both sides have playstyles that taste bad for the other side and yet they are viable strats. People need to finally learn to just take the L and move on into the next round. What really should be bannable is trying to shame people for the way they play.

    Thank you :") i felt real awful after because one of the teammates who gave up told me they were a swf and that what i did 'ruined the dbe vibe' for them :(

    I know that feeling of wanting someone you think "if someone deserves hatch this match this is the one" ... and then the other one just won't die for one reason or the other ๐Ÿ˜…

    If I have that feeling during the trial at some point I usually go out of my way to not cross paths with the person I want to give hatch to as soon as they got their two hook stages. Usually it works out.

    exactly!!!! I really didn't want to keep going for her but her teammate did absolutely nothing for her except keep picking her up; no heals or anything

  • @Persephone_ said:

    It is unfun but I have to say that I understand if you are in a situation where you need a 4k for a challenge/achievement/merciless pip. I would almost never slug for the 4k but I had to for my adepts. I've always explained this afters s actually have to say most people were understanding and congratulated me on the achievement.

    Thank you! And I feel like had the other two survivors not given up, I think everyone would have made it out and everything would have gone smoothly...it wasn't really my decision that they gave up and decided to keep watching the game go on

  • @Halloulle said:

    if you just wait sth out the game put there (be that a bleedout timer, or a slowed egc timer etc.) it's not holding the game hostage. It's sweaty, try-hard and imo somewhat cringe and it won't make you any friends / lead to friendly endgame chats but it's not against the rules.

    I really did not want to keep slugging her until her bleedout timer expired, I was going to give her the hatch if I had found the other person first but he would not show up and she was the only person I found :(

  • @OnryosTapeRentals said:

    No it's not reportable, they're just salty.

    Thank you so much for responding! I did end up making the match at least a while longer for the other teammates who were dead however they gave up kind of early and i guess my slugging the Mikaela made it even longer for them so that may be what they think is holding it hostage
