I don't understand.

If you people see cakes are being used, then why is everyone being such a dick about helping each other out?

If you're a good survivor and you're ripping the killer apart, then give the killer a chance to earn some points also.

If you're a killer and you see that the survivors don't stand a chance, then why not be less of a dick and give them a chance to earn some bloodpoints?

I really don't understand the point of using cakes at all if everyone is completely squandering the opportunity to earn as much as possible from them. Such a weird community in this game.

    A lot of people don't like to farm, they just want to have normal games where everybody is trying their best to reach the objective. You'll earn a lot of bloodpoints anyways because the gateaus are crazy good.

    I can completely understand that. However, This item is a perfect opportunity to get all your survivors and killers leveled up. It honestly doesn't make sense to me to waste them.

    I don't mind playing normally when cakes/BPS are on the table. What I personally don't get are the people who go out of their way to end the game stupidly early in that situation, or Killers who tunnel players out of the game super early, screwing them out of those points.

    I'm partial to farming when they're used and I'm killer precisely because that annoys me so much. I'll play sweaty until, at minimum, I've got my Barbecue stacks. From there I'm fine screwing around until I've maxed out non-sacrifice points. After that I'll leave the survivors to their own devices, maybe harass them a bit out of boredom or to give them their own Boldness points, but I'm fine letting people go for the most part.

    Some killer players will still play the slug and one-hook game even when 5 cakes are in play. No Freddy, you did NOT win. We ALL lost!

    I don't expect anything from other killer players. Usually what happens is i beat a team down, have them all on deathhook, depending on how many cakes have been offered i will let them farm. Especially when there are people who dc or suicide on hook. Considering how toxic some people are, I usually let them farm also when they like ######### up the game completely.

    Honestly I do not care for my rank, it is meaningless. I want bps, most other people also want bps so let them have it together with some good chases, seems fine to me.

    I have all perks on all killers, I don't know what to spend BPs on I will just get even more items and addons. Don't need BPs and guess many other don't either.

    I chase, down and hook as killer I get bp, the survivors are getting bp by doing gens, totems, being chased, pallet stuns (I don't respect pallets), blinding if they can, unhooking and healing.

    They do not have to give me bp for free and I won't give them free bp either. Farming is boring, I just play the game, win or lose or draw and move on to the next one.

    I will however down and take the final survivor to the hatch if at least 4 cakes are played.

    I wont really care unless they just walk up to me and just tbag. i will most likely farm even tho its pretty boring but its better than just getting actually demolished if im playing a killer im bad at so its really whatever most of the time.

    As killer I go for 12 hooks so that should give them enough of a chance to earn Bloodpoints.

    As survivor it all depends on the killer. I will give the killer a hook near the door at end game if I'm playing swf just to be nice. However I had a game against a huntress who got zero hooks and when I tried to be nice, she tried to sweat. I pointed at the hook and went down near the door. Then she proceeded to try and down everyone else and wouldn't let them save me. Luckily they did but this made me BT and DS for the rest of the event just incase.
