Do survivors like or care when the killer brings a bloody party streamer?

I just feel like a lot of survivors just dont really appreciate it. When I bring a bps (bloody party streamer) into a match as killer I'm never trying to play super sweaty. I try to avoid doing anything toxic or unfun like camping or tunneling or slugging. Hell even if it's the end game I wont camp or slug. But I dont farm. I'm still going to play normally and hook the survivors I down.

But still I get a lot of survivors who dc or I get survivors who just rush gens super quick, like I wont even have two hooks yet and the exit gates are powered. I'm just like "why?" You dont care about blood points? I'm just trying to have a little fun here and share in the wealth but it seems a lot of survivors just aren't having it.

    Some people are just douchebags and go out of their way to make their opponents unhappy, one of those ways is to deny them blood points. Both Survivors and Killers are like that.

    As for those who rush gens, they don't care about blood points, they care more about winning and proving they're better than you.

    I used to bring Streamers as a survivor and I got tired of the amount of times the killer would bring and use an ebony mori as soon as possible. I actively avoid them in the web now. It's been my experience that killers DO play even sweatier when they bring them. I always figured they always have the chance for double bloodpoints with BBQ, so who cares about the survivors?

    And twice in two days, I've had killers who fake the meme'ing or farming or whatever you want to call it. I'm guessing it's for the sacrifices during the EGC challenge and they feel the only way they can do it is to trick people. I had a feeling the second time that's what the killer was doing and was far away from her by the time the last gen popped. What do you know, she had NOED and all of the sudden wasn't so nice anymore. One teammate left immediately and I didn't have time to cleanse RUIN and make the saves. Everyone would have been out easily if they had just played normally. So. We have trust issues.

    I'll try to play a lil more chill when the killer brings those. If the killer is struggling, I'll try to avoid god loops and the likes.

    But there you go. You aren't being nice, why should we? It's the killers job to stop us from doing gens.

    It's been my experience that hardly anyone does totems and they just rely on math. They think they only have a 25% chance of being the unlucky survivor who goes down, NOED. The rest leave and don't feel guilty. There's NOED, after all. I personally have always run Small Game and done totems because I know my teammates are usually too selfish to help me, and I think NOED rewards bad killers. Can't tell you how many times I've died in a game after doing four totems and being touched once the entire game. It happened the last time I played, in fact.

    from personal experience, killers who bring BPS tend to want to stomp as quickly as possible as it doesnt matter how fast their job gets done. if they get kills, they'll get a ton of bloodpoints regardless

    I do what i normally do and if the killer performs poorly that is on them. I'm not going to risk my life just to give someone i don't know that is trying to kill me some points to feed their ability to kill other people.

    Well, I generally appreciate it, but most don't seem to. I've had the same experience bringing BPS as killer.

    I usually like to share the wealth too but I'm starting to consider avoiding them in bloodwebs because it's almost like something that, when I put it on, somehow magically makes all other players in the game want my game to end as quickly as possible -- whether that be the killer camping/tunneling hardcore when I'm survivor, or team mates killing themselves, or survivors killing themselves/DCing early when I'm playing killer. You should probably just do the same and stop bringing them since nobody respects them enough.

    Most of my matches where the killer brings BPS its because they are trying super hard and don't want to feel bad when survivors end with under 10k points. This normally is like infinite t3 myers or another person who is running a super op build.

    So truthfully, I groan because while double bloodpoints is nice, the fact that the match will most likely end quickly isn't as appealing. Especially if I want to maximize the points I get.

    When a killer brings a BPS I dont think anything. Just get happy everybody will get more BP, killer included. But i play normally, as I would play if there was no BPS. Cause BPS is already giving extra BP, so no need to "soft farm". Nothing personal.

    In my own experience, when a killer uses BPS, they normally sweat pretty hard and are using really good add-ons. Even had a slugging wraith use BPS; he ended up with like 13000 points as the games was over really quick.

    I always appreciate when someone brings party streamers, whether its the killer or one of the survivors.

  • Steve0333
    Steve0333 Member Posts: 529

    But if you are doing gens too quickly when the killer is doing poorly then you are potentially feeding their ability to kill other people because there is a good chance they have NOED.

  • Steve0333
    Steve0333 Member Posts: 529

    It's not about survivors being nice. That's not what I was asking. I was asking why do survivors refuse blood points by dcing or rushing gens when someone brings a bps? There I made it simple.

    What's the point bringing up noed if you have created discussion about BPS? If you want to ask about noed just create another thread dedicated solely for noed discussion

    I saw people leave with 10k BloodPoints when i bring a bps...

    And even here survivor players are sweaty. They claim to play vs ebony every other game...

    I never ever used moris. I even do my kill daily with devour or rancor.

    I'm under the impression that Streamers are cursed. Every time I've dropped one, the survivor team is super sweaty god mode. Every time.

    Because you made a point about rushing gens against poor killers in order to "not feed their kills" when often times it does just that. If no one on your team is in danger of the death hook then it makes no sense to rush the final gen, especially if you want to "not feed the killer." Nothing feeds the killer more than NOED.

  • Seegson

    First of all, i wasn't me who mentioned doing gens.

    Secondly, it's the most efficient way to play, better finish all gens before survivors were hooked twice. Even if killer has noed it's easier to find one lit totem than 5 dull.

  • Steve0333
    Steve0333 Member Posts: 529

    That's not it. Killers even do memes that highlight and make fun of how dumb survivors are when it comes to gen rushing. I'm sure you've seen or experienced it. Killers will go afk the entire match, giving survivors all the time in the world to clean totems and after the last gen is done they kill start hunting the survivors and 9 times out of 10 the killer still has noed. Truth is survivors just cant help themselves. Even when there is absolutely no reason in the world to rush gens they still do it. It's like programmed into them. They faced one too many face camping bubbas or something.

    I love it when the killer brings BPS or Gruesome Gateau's because it means more Blood points, and so I play to the best of my ability to try and max every category if possible. While this is strictly for the points offered, I'm pretty sure the killer isn't having a good time with it since I, and possibly my team are playing really sweaty. I don't back off and decide to farm unless I see 3+ BPS/Gateau's, then I purposely find the killer, let them hook me twice, and see if we can farm, and 8 out of 10 times this works, because who's gonna pass up on that many points? I don't think that Survivors aren't so much ignoring appreciation of the BPS offering from the killers, Its more that they are encouraged to do better in their roles for all the juicy points they can get before the game ends. You may be hoping for an easier/more relaxed game, but in truth, you're just setting us up to play harder and earn as many points as quickly as possible.

    I can't speak at all for the DC'ers though... Win or Lose we still get 2x the points because of the offering, and the only way to avoid that reward is to DC like an over-entitled brat, so I really don't understand the logic behind it. As for the gen rushers, I can't say... why work to max only 1 category when we can either max or get decent enough points in all categories and receive an even greater reward. I get wanting to repair gens asap, and escape as that is our overall goal, so even if a lone BPS is present, its still decent points, just not nearly as much as it could be. Some may see the addition of a BPS offering as a challenge, like the killer is saying to them "I'm gonna be extra sweaty and earn my 2x BPS, Bring it on!" and so they do. In that mentality I can see gen rushing as being the "Challenge Accepted" response, but that also has the potential to waste the offering for everyone, and all the survivors will say is that the killer just "wasn't good enough" to make it worthwhile.

    Basically, 2x point offerings = Challenge to do better. If the Killer isn't putting forth the same effort, then its gonna amount to a wasted offering. The only time Survivors are inclined to play nice is if multiple players put in 2x BP offerings, because If only one does, its just a challenge... At least to me anyways.

    I wonder if some surviver mains even value bloodpoints. Some players only play survivor, and only play one character. So they only need to get the other survivors levelled up to unlock their teachables and then what's the point of bloodpoints when their main has 100 Commodius toolboxes in their inventory.

    I play all the killers so bloodpoints are in really short supply as each killer needs many millions of bloodpoints spent on them just to unlock BBQ at level 3.

    Start looking at it this way: while BPS can make a great game into an amazing game bp wise, it can also make a bad or average game into a good game bp wise. If you get a juicy 25k game that's a crazy 50k game, but if you barely get 9k that's still 18k which isn't too bad 😊

    I used to worry about the "BPS Curse" and assumed anyone that DC'd/suicided on hook or hardcore camped/tunneled while one was in play was doing it specifically to screw someone else out of points, but most of the time that player would do the same if no BPS got offered. They're just playing in a way that's normal for them.

    Not denying there are people that try to troll, but they're rare. I've had killers insta-DC once the game started and specifically laugh about "wasted bps" when 3 survivors brought them after the game was over, as well as all 4 survivors DCing the moment the game started and doing the same after the killer brought them. But I can count those occurrences on one hand.

    Party streamers isnt some some offering that's going to automatically make killer or survivor play more fair lol some killers are gonna a play as crazy as they want to get as many points as they can milk, and some survivors are gonna flashlight and deadhead their way around more aggressively to milk points as well.

    When I see a Killer has burned a BPS I automatically hear a "Sorry, this game is going to be rough because of sweat/build so here's a consolation prize."


    In this case I play normally until I can see the killer in action. Not tunneling/camping/slugging? Ok, now I ignore the god windows/junglegym bullshit/second chance perks.

  • PodgeNotRodge
    PodgeNotRodge Member Posts: 478

    Even when I do farm with BPS, the survivors usually teabag, 360 and screw you on every turn. Its not the greatest conclusion but I just play the game how I usually do then. Not super sweaty but not a pushover. If those survivors want the points, they're going to have to take them from me. Unfortunately this game has become so toxic on both sides, those that are trying to be nice just get slapped telling them their stupid for thinking the benefit of the doubt.

    I think people like when a bloody party is used, either by other survivor or killer, but maybe because of that, survivors won't take risks and do gens fast so they can escape and get the points for escaping. Others, like me, press the ready button, go do something and get back when the match is about to start, only to realise at the end screen results that someone had used one or more of these offerings.


    But I also have seen a lot of people just DC'ing when a bloody party is used by the killer and I don't get it either. Maybe they think it will be the opposite, the killer will be much more dedicated to do everything to get more points, instead of being more chill.

    Plenty of killers will still tunnel me off the hook through BT and straight out of the game with 2 streamers offered.

    It's an individual thing, not so much killer or survivor.

    Whenever one side brings bloody party streamers the opposite side tries to make the game as miserable as possible. It's almost tradition at this point.

    I appreciate the extra points. But I also don't trust it. I play normal, but I'm definitely far more wary.

    I always thank anyone who brings BPS whether it’s the killer or a teammate, or the survivors when I’m killer. But I generally am not “farming,” it’s better for everyone to just play normally get good points in a normal time.

    The exceptions are if the other team makes it clear they want to farm when in killer I will usually oblige. Like if they all run up to me at the start pointing and crouching at my feet, it’s clear they’re trying to farm okay.

    Or as killer if I manage to down/hook everyone instantly, with Billy infectious for example, I will let them save each other at least once and do gens. There’s no point in everyone getting 1-4000 points. Especially if they brought multiple BPS

    BPS are cursed items for me. No matter what side I play them on. As a survivor tunneled off hook for all 3 hooks or mori'd off of 1st hook. As killer, urban evading ninjas that push out gens and vanish out of the exit gates.

    Technically its the killers job to kill. not to stop gens.

  • OtakuBurrito

    I honestly do. My friends and I even change our names to 4X BPS FARM PLS when we all bring one. Then we get a sweaty ass Doctor that says oh ######### I didn't see all 4 of the BPS at the end of the match...like really #########? Please press ESC and check offerings for the love of Skittles please damn!

    When a killer brings them I go out of my way to find them and give them my item as a show of good faith and most get the message. Some just don't care because I'm Claudette.

    A someone who played both sides, no I don't really care from either side. It's not going to change how I play. I'm still going to focus objectives and try to win the game. It's a nice bonus but I don't expect others to play differently based on what I decided to bring in just because.

    By the same token, if a killer brings in a mori you should let him mori you because he brought it in and burnt the offering.

    As a killer the only time I don't give af about bps is when survivors bring toolboxes.

    Last time this happened to me was during a double bps. I put on a ebony Mori because they obviously didn't care about the double bps. All the survivors brought bps, with brand new parts. 3 gens were done by the time I hooked the first survivor. They got mad in the post game chat because I mori'd 2 of them and that 1 of them DC'd so the 4th 1 could escape through the hatch, saying they couldn't get any points.

    Imo it goes both ways, but each side is too ignorant to notice what the other side is doing

  • johnmwarner
    johnmwarner Member Posts: 3,793

    Yes, both sides call the other OP, call for nerds, says the devs side with someone, etc

    If everyone played both sides a bit I think that would take away a lot of the us vs them arguments

    I have terrible luck with streamers. If I bring them as killer, survivors purposely play dirty. If I play survivor, killers play really angry and sweaty.

    I wish people saw bps as a peace offering for fun games and free blood points,
