    The game is just not meant to be played competitively. It's an asymmetric game for starters, and the balance is just such that low rank survivors have hell while high rank killers must struggle.

    I think this is fine. The only real problem is when you have 4-man SWF commando squads working like clockwork to beat the killer, or survivor newbs at Rank 20 who have no idea what they're doing and getting owned left and right.

    In most situations the game is not too bad.

    I like the game on good days. I can deal with new players and I can own up to the fact that most of the time, I risk my own neck knowing I'm not great at looping. But I literally just played a match where two other survivors that were working together let me and my friend die even though we had actually tried to help them. That'a the main issue I have. Survivors are trying so hard to screw each other over these days that it takes the fun out of it.

    I agree, camping and tunnelling is an awful experience and it really does suck, which is why as a killer main I strive to do neither. Obviously sometimes a survivor will just keep running into me and I won't just ignore them if it happens so they die pretty quickly because of bad luck/hiding teammates/obliviousness to surroundings but I won't tunnel off the hook or focus them if I run into several.

    That being said I think you've very wrong if you think the game is geared towards killers. Yes, killers a much more powerful than survivors in most cases unless your survivor is a pro at looping but that's the point, there are 4 survivors so on average if you get tunnelled or camped it can feel like it's geared towards killers but anybody with experience against even competent survivor teams can tell you that it's difficult and we don't have the advantage you think we do.

    I will agree that when there's a good team, it seems less like the killers have an advantage. I will also say that there are a lot of killers that are easy to counter (not the players of the killers but the actual killers, not trying to insult anyone's gameplay) but there are some that are more difficult to work against. It's hard not to get the feeling that the game is geared nore towards killers.

    However, I think the main issue is with other survivors. When someone is new, you can generally tell and I'm not gonna hate on someone just trying to get a feel for the game. It's the survivors that seem determined to ruin things for others or just don't care about their teammates that ruin things. I just don't understand the logic of sacrificing your teammates when the point is to work together.

  • I'm a survivor main that rarely plays a killer unless it's for BP or a daily ritual. I usually play as the Legion, mostly because I like their outfits and their mori.

    I just want to start by saying that I fully expect people here to disagree with me or maybe even throw hate my way. I'll also likely forget to check back for comments. But I figured I'd just put my opinion down.


    My friend and I have been playing this game for a good bit, like just after Michael was released. We sometimes spent 17 hours a day on the game on our days off because we loved it. Now we hate it and basically don't care anymore. It feels like there's no point trying to survive anymore. If you're not being camped or tunnelled, you have to deal with ######### teammates. My friend and I fix gens, unhook people, and even go back for people when Endgame has been triggered. But we almost never see the same from our teammates.


    I won't say I'm a super skilled player. My looping skills are ######### but I'm decent at hiding and I'm pretty reliable when it comes to helping others. But it's gotten to the point where it feels like every update is geared towards helping killers and screwing over survivors. The game doesn't feel fun anymore. It's just something to do to pass the time. Hell, it's gotten to the point that when I do play a killer, I mostly just ######### off the whole match, pretending I'm gonna kill people just so the survivors have an easy match for once and don't have to die on the hook because of ######### teammates.


    The game is woefully geared towards killer players and survivors are getting more and more selfish. I've played several matches where survivors intentionally lead a killer to me or follow me around the map making as much noise as possibly to draw the killer to us and then they bail so I get stuck with the killer. It's a lot of BS these days and the BP isn't worth it.


    And as for killers, a lot of them aren't OP on their own but when you take some of their built-in abilities and stack other killer perks, it can quickly make certain killers OP and it makes it harder to survive. But it is what it is. I don't fault killers for trying to live their best lives. I do fault them for tunnelling and camping. I won't apologize for saying that those are incredibly annoying techniques that suck the fun right out of the game, especially when you FINALLY have a match where your team is trying to help. My friend and I have gotten to the point where we don't try if we see the match going to ######### because no one else is trying just so we don't get enough BP to rank up because then we might ger better matches. It's sad to say that technique has actually kind of worked. Ranks 14 & 15 seem to be a sweet spot. For us, anyway.


    I know everyone has their opinions. And I'm no saint. I've sent some hate mail to killers and other survivors and I'm not proud of that. Sometimes we all get too caught up in the heat of the moment and do things we shouldn't. But I've stopped with the hate mail because, at the end of the day, it is just a game and most of us just want to try and have some fun with it. Every game is going to have its trolls and people that abuse the system, as unfortunate as that is.


    Anyway, I hope everyone has a great day and manages to have some fun. Life is too short for all the bullshit, ya know?
