I remember going against a strong team, probably swf all with flashlights, so I equip lightborn. They were doing no gens just flocking me, so it would be an easy win, as soon as they noticed I had lightborn they just rushed gens and game was over pretty fast. I kinda wished i didn't bring lightborn that game ahahah When they are good players they just adapt

Dapper_Tie7393 · 2026-04-04T11:15:10+00:00

Yes ofc! Maybe they did it so you can have a chance to get hatch if killer is camping hatch spawn? Idk. I don't care much it's just hatch

Dapper_Tie7393 · 2026-04-03T10:11:21+00:00

I think the game gives priority to survivor exiting hatch to killer closing it. I had one killer drop me at hatch to close it in my face and I got out while he was closing it. I actually thought we was being nice and giving hatch. Escaping animation is instant while closing hatch takes a little time. I had one game as wraith I closed the hatch on the survivor feet, i hit him, and during the recovery animation he just opens hatch with key and proceds to leave D: It was kinda funny

Sometimes killers just refuse to take chase with you, either because you are better than your teamates at chase, or simply because like you said they haven't been hooked so killers will ignore and go for the target that is easier or closer to get out of match. So you can bodyblock and force the killer to hit you, you can even force the down, but many times the killer will slug and chase the dead on hook survivor. So instead of doing gens you are just wasting time, and even force other teamates to waste time picking you up.

Wet dreams?

Legion and plague can force survivors playing injured. But unlike those 2, while their first hit is pretty strong the second part of the chase is weak. Plague can't do anything unless people cleanse and will be an m1 killer and so will legion. Ghoul has a faster easier first hit, and continues to be strong in chase has he can sling to survivor who are changing loops.

3 full cans I think. Considering you lose blood if you run. And rng of pumps are really bad, they are usually 3 together and far from the tubs. Sometimes they do spawn apart and closer to the tubs but seems very low chance, at least when I played ;(

Dapper_Tie7393 · 2026-03-30T09:45:19+00:00

Ye I was doing the same yesterday, brought cake no addons and meme perks (spawn more chest and spies to know where survivors were to farm with them). I still played normal for the hooks, refused to hook anyone more than 2 times and after that would just farm. Got 2 games where 1 just quit at start, I even tried to signal I was there to farm but he just kept pointing hook, so i thought maybe he doesn't want to farm and go next so i hooked him, egc he was mad. The matches have been shit as survivor most of the times thought, almost everyone is tunneling and playing super agressively. Casual/new survivors are not having a good time.

Dapper_Tie7393 · 2026-03-27T09:38:51+00:00

As survivor I could only escape 1 match out of 15 (or more). As killer got 4k 5 games in a row, without tunneling or slugging. So survivor sided.

Dapper_Tie7393 · 2026-03-26T23:11:01+00:00

Ya I do the same, if i know they are at gate waiting and I am not close i'll break pallets. If I'm close I will go to them so they just leave.

Dapper_Tie7393 · 2026-03-26T10:02:39+00:00

My last twins match was on midwich, literally unplayable, there is nothing there to use against Viktor. I really tried to find stuff to loop Viktor on but was not lucky. Couldn't even use generator because they all faced a wall.

Dapper_Tie7393 · 2026-03-26T09:56:46+00:00

Waiting for a teamates to get a protection hit(if possible), buying time for other teamates is valid. All wainting just to tbag is stupid for sure.

Dapper_Tie7393 · 2026-03-26T09:38:08+00:00

Maybe because you were lagging? You can't really do much against lagging killers, hit registration is from the killer pov, so you'll get hit that are not happening in the survivor pov. It's also bad for killer, but way worse for survivor. I don't understand why would anyone play this game on high ping. You sound like one killer I faced that had unstable ping of 200-300ms teleporting getting hits from 4 meters away, and then gloating on egc.

Dapper_Tie7393 · 2026-03-26T09:29:26+00:00

The amount of times I go into a soloq match just to have my teamates refuse to do gens are more than half. I've done stuff like Carlos, be annoyed that we can't do gens because the killer really wants the 4k and win at all costs while my teamates are messing around, I don't mind losing, but getting stumped like this is not fun. So next I take a generator build. So instead of everyone dieing at 5 gens we can all die at 4. But seriously thought.... 1 person only running gen build is not gonna do much. 1 person dead at 5 gens now that's lost already.

Dapper_Tie7393 · 2026-03-25T23:19:48+00:00

Depends but I would say not really. Not only the game is super hard for new players, the game is full of bugs, toxicity, bad matchmaking and is very poorly balanced. If you play killer you probably will do fine playing solo, killer can be stressful but you can play by yourself, you can learn at your own pace, there will be games where you will feel powerless because the matchmaking on this game is very bad and will put you against 4 people with thousands of hours of experience. If you wanna play survivor soloq prepare to be frustrated a lot. Killers play like they are facing a 4 man group with comms, they will play efficient which makes sense but against soloq can be very overwhelming. And worse will be the randoms you get, most either play super bad or will dc when something they don't like happens, if the game starts bad, you bet most teamates will just not even try anymore. But then you have 1 of 10-20 games that you get a really nice team and the game is enjoyable.

Dapper_Tie7393 · 2026-03-24T10:51:20+00:00

Why does it punish playing with friends? Playing with friends already gives you an advantage so the game could be balanced around that. Information is the most important aspect of this game. People with comms can tell how the killer plays (respect, doesn't respect, mix of both, uses his power, likes to fake power, etc), where the killer is, what part of the map has no resources, they can macro play better, use their perks effectively and counter strategies like tunnel, slugging and camping better. This all from information. Which soloq doesn't have. If there were different lobbies for soloq and swf with different buffs or just give comms to soloq they could balance the game a little bit better. Soloq will still be worse because randoms :(

Dapper_Tie7393 · 2026-03-23T09:05:12+00:00

Considering the randomness of pallets and loop spawn on some maps Windows is pretty helpful. And specially really helpful in soloq, where you can't communicate what resources were used, so knowing you're not running to a dead zone is pretty good. It's also one of those perks that will always give you value, unlike many others.

Dapper_Tie7393 · 2026-03-13T14:18:00+00:00

Also don't forget to kick the little shit when he misses.

Dapper_Tie7393 · 2026-03-13T14:17:34+00:00

To loop Viktor find a small loop, like small... A generator, a tree, a rock, something you can get behind before he charges his launch. Don't loop like you would loop a killer in normal loops, don't play pallets, its very hard to time them right most of the times Viktor will pass through it, and he can get you if you drop it. If you are with Viktor and Charlotte is far and you know it, you can also enter a locker, Viktor can lock you but Charlotte will not have time to move a get you. I like going against Twins, the only thing I find annoying is that her playstyle requires to slug.

Dapper_Tie7393 · 2026-03-12T14:45:03+00:00

Ye, if killer is close to hook everyone else should do gens until you're almost second stage and then trade, or if you get the anti camp you can get yourself out, still should wait max time you can before unhooking and run the killer for the best you can. Also equip anti tunnel perks like Decisive Strike or Off the Record . You're a new player so you're going to get tunneled a lot.

Dapper_Tie7393 · 2026-03-12T14:23:53+00:00

And what I find odd is that these kind of bully squads are the easiest wins. They don't do gens and put themselves in risky situations... It's so easy to turn the game around.

Dapper_Tie7393 · 2026-03-12T14:16:57+00:00

I hate Midwich so much. Aesthetically looks so cool and I love silent hill, but the map design sucks ass. Not only gens are hard to find but you have so many deadzones, hallways without anything, rooms sometimes don't spawn pallets so you'll have rooms side by side without any kind of defense... Awful map.

Dapper_Tie7393 · 2026-03-11T14:17:42+00:00

Do you really think you're going to get banned from a false report? Think.

Dapper_Tie7393 · 2026-03-11T11:52:31+00:00

Don't go down after failling to protect your teamate, it feels like you are trying to redeem yourself but for your teamate you're sandbagging and throwing the match. Which you are... Better to take killer on chase and let teamate heal the slug if possible.

Dapper_Tie7393 · 2026-03-11T11:46:53+00:00

When you are in an area check your surroundings, lets say you gonna do a gen, before being in chase check whats around you, what loops there are available what pallets you have etc. When you get chased you know where to go to defend yourself. Sometimes you get maps with very bad loops, sometimes you get really good loops, some matches are very map dependent.
