What is considered sand bagging in DBD?

[プリンツ・オイゲン]

Is it only blocking windows or throwing down pallets trapping survivor with the killer?

[Silent Sword]

sand bag is when you lead the killer to another survivor to save yourself in the chase ❕ 🙃

can use perk Bond from Dwight to avoid it in the future ... until you feel no need for it anymore can be useful

Wait you can seriously get banned if the the killer manages to push a survivor onto another survivor working a gen?

if they film it that in the match you do it on purpose to help the killer might be a bannable offense but if you didnt do it on purpose , dont worry.

not sure for DbD but in BnQ you can purchase sand bags towards the back left of the store where the Building supplies are.

Interesting .. I thought sandbagging is only blocking other survivor and in away get them down/hit by the killer. Had no idea it is this wide of a meaning ..
So, does my understanding still apply or it is different?

blocking is blocking , sand baggin is when you lead the killer to another teammate

[Branchu]

Sandbagging is intentionally blocking windows, pallets or somehow intentionally screwing your teammate over. In a game recently I had a Laurie block a doorway so a Cybil couldn't get away from me. Ironically, I was gonna go for the Cybil, but the sandbag made me change targets.

Leading the killer to another survivor is not sandbagging; most of the time it's solo queue and the survivors don't know you're there.

So in theory you can get banned for being in a bad situation.

So if you dont know where everyone is you can get banned because you a preventing them from doing gens?

Thats what I thought, I thought the goal of the killer is to preassure the survivors from doing gens. If they happen to push a survivor off a gen it shouldn't be bannable.

Thats almost like getting banned for getting chased

What you are describing is not bannable. Also, almost nobody is going to go through the entire process of booting up a recording program mid-match, film you being chased towards them, report it in-game after the match, upload the video somewhere, and then also file a second report through BHVR's website. Even if the moderation team ever bothered to review that report, they could instantly see it's an empty report.

blocking is blocking , sand baggin is when you lead the killer to another teammate

why is blocking even a thing among survivors. We should be able to pass through each other

makes the game more challenging in that you all can't take the same route, also does this mean killers can double hit survivors is they stacked on top?

Suggested multiple times. My guess is that the dev team is afraid of Survivors intentionally making stacked travel groups for "ambiguous hits" to mess with the servers during EGC gate rushes.
