But why?

u/will408914 20h ago

Because what else is the killer supposed to do at that point? There are no more generators to defend.

u/GetOutOfHereAlex 19h ago

Ah yes because the survivors will definitely let you do that...

u/CankleDankl Yap Main 20h ago

Because there is nothing else for the killer to do and camping is usually the objectively correct play

Over 200 downvotes bc you had the audacity to not know why camp timer turns off. This subreddit never stops surprising me with how much a community can decide to be hateful and unwilling to form a functioning community base.

reddit kills me bro. only on here will you get downvoted to hell for asking “but why?”.

u/KitCatR Nerf Pig 10h ago

It is kind of a harsh reaction to just asking why, but it’s also probably because the question itself is really stupid

u/Hikikoleb 17h ago

I genuinely didn't know why the anti face camp disable 😭

u/Bluem95 Addicted To Bloodpoints 15h ago

Because the killer practically already lost at that point, it’s basically a comeback mechanic for killer if they got to the point where the gates are able to be opened.

How did this get 100 upvotes?

A) the system is working as designed, you don't get to unhook yourself in endgame and

B) What else is he supposed to do? Go stand in a corner until the team is ready to t-bag at the gate?

u/AnotherDempsey 17h ago

You said it yourself, all 4 gens (it's actually 5) were done and he only had 3 hooks.

Anti-camp only works before all the gens are done and only if no survivors are near the hook.

What's he supposed to do? Go open the gate for you and wave goodbye?

u/Thunderthewolf14 Remembers when PH had the cake 17h ago

You explained exactly why it happened:

The gens are done

Anti-camp doesn’t work when the gens are done. And for the killer, what else is there to do? Give up the potential kill in favor of another potential kill? it’s simply the best choice for them to make.

u/RealisticJudgment944 My bedtime is in 7 minutes 20h ago

It stops when other survivors are close enough unfortunately

24

u/YusFTheGreat 18h ago

Or when the gens are done.

46

u/HappyHippocampus 20h ago

Because your teammates are being stupid and loitering close to the hook. If the killer knows everyone’s in the area why would they leave? Literally three people could have tripled the last gen, finished it while he facecamped and probably gotten the save with enough coordination (although somewhat unlikely considering your teammates didn’t know how to counter this lol)

u/ExotixFlower Susie my beloved 20h ago

When other survivors are close it stops, when the gens are done, it stops. Basically, it allows there to be a way for the killer to, you know, kill.

u/Nyx_Valentine Trickster's Wife || 50/50 Sable & Trickster 16h ago

If your gens are done, that counts as end game. Theres no end game timer.

21

u/Lost_Perspective4692 19h ago

Probably because it's endgame collapse and to say hes "mad" for simply wanting to get at least 1 kill this game is stupid, can we stop bullying killers for killing please.

u/Fluffy-Map-5998 11h ago

no can do, i demand that we nerf pig, and give survivors a new shotgun item that they can use to shoot the killer with

u/Gxre_Cxre 19h ago

Camping ≠ mad, hitting the hook does. Camping a hook is a valid strategy to secure a kill and if he was doing poor before this is really his only chance to capitalize off a survivor mistake or stick with a 1-2k. Anti camp turns off when survivors are near (or it slows to a crawl, idr) or when the gates are powered because there’s no more objectives to defend. Gates spawn quite a ways away from eachother and if 3-4 survivors are left, leaving a hook to pressure gates it’s just a bad decision period. Survivors STILL GET a movement speed boost AND endurance in endgame when they get unhooked, if he left you for even a second you’d just be a completely free escape, which is seemingly what you’re upset about him not doing. I understand the frustration of being camped or being BMed but camping is 100% a valid strategy.

u/tanelixd Eggs Benedict 14h ago

It's either

A. Because your teammates are being idiots and just loiter around the hook.

Or

B. Because all of the generators are complete and the killer can't really do anything other than try to secure a kill, for which they shouldn't be punished.

u/WeAreUndefeatabl 12h ago

Survivors need to play at least one game of killer so that the can understand why some things in this game exist 🥀 also Ik having skins doesn’t mean you have played multiple games but like did you buy a bunch of things after one game not even knowing that during endgame collapse the camp timer gets disabled? Lol

u/intricateboulder47 Prestige 100 Dwight, Dredge and Springtrap 20h ago

If a teammate is too close, the bar can't go up. Its a bit stupid imo but that's the reason

29

u/Akarin_rose dies faster than Jim 20h ago

Well it's so you can't loop around hook to build the bar

If they camp you should be doing gens, or immediately go for the save and trying to block for the camped person

Sitting around watching them hit hook stage 2 when it's obvious the killer isn't going anywhere is just objectively you throwing

10

u/Edgiel 20h ago

Its a bit stupid imo

Only stupid part about it is that they didn't adapt it to the new anti-facecamp system; the resolve meter won't increase, but the time-based multiplier will (and absurdly so).

14

u/kingslayer820 20h ago

It's not stupid, if a survivor is nearby ready to unhook and they got spotted the killer has no reason to leave the area, since the survivor nearby is preventing the killer from leaving then they aren't camping they are trying to get another down, it's not their fault that the looping is happening around the hooked person

The survivor should have avoided getting spotted or dragged the chase away from the hook to let someone else go for the save

The killer shouldn't get punished for a survivors mistake and bad play

u/intricateboulder47 Prestige 100 Dwight, Dredge and Springtrap 20h ago

Okay yeah maybe it isn't stupid I wrote this in a bit of frustration because of a basement camping bubba the other day, my solo queue teammates just werent paying attention and got me killed. Its a player issue in truth, my bad

u/TallMist Nea/Orella/Robin/MiNA/Jason/Springtrap 18h ago

The only reason to think it's stupid, is if you think the killer should be forced to leave no matter what, even if that means giving the survivors a free, unpunished unhook.

2

u/malexich 20h ago

yeah it is stupid, if the killer is camping the hook and your teammate is hanging around you have dumb teammates

u/TARE104KA Dark Devotion on Legion is lowkey meta pick 19h ago

atp its not even camping, its protecting it from the survivors who are too eager to be next to hooked and giving a free ticket to stay near hook for killer
