Dead By Daylight - Drinking Rules - Halloween - Balanced for good players

vsp33ddyv

HI Everyone

Halloween is coming up and me and friends invented drinking rules for playing Dead By Daylight. We tested it out yesterday and we had an average of 2.5 shots per match. In the attachement you can find a "Word file" containing all of the information for you to distribute or print as much as you like.

For people that do not have word, I copy and pasted the content below, this way you can enjoy the festivities as well.
We found the rules really balanced and not overwhelming. We do advise you to keep extra shots ready next to your desk, otherwise the average went up to 5-6 shots per game due getting hooked again.

Enjoy your night and drink safely! (do not drive after this!)

DISCLAIMER: We did it with the following bottles, do not take something to heavy and make it light, then you can play longer.

Dead by daylight drinking rules – Shots Edition

General

Whenever a rule applies, the shot must be drank before continuing the game. No new action in the game can be taken without drinking your debt. This also counts for specific killer rules. Please see the “3 shots rules” for the punishment of not respecting it.

Scenario 1: You are hiding from the killer and decide to run to a generator. Just when you start running you notice the killer is “The Doctor” you are now in debt and have to drink 0.5 shot.
You can remain “running away” because you were already running, while running away you can take the shot and clear your debt. If “The Doctor” would hit you, you do not have to take an extra shot.

Scenario 2: You are hiding from the killer by crouching in a field, you notice the killer is Freddy (but were still crouched) --> you are now in debt and have to drink 0.5 shot.

You CANNOT run away because this would be a new action, so you have to stay crouched until you finished your shot! Freddy finds you and hits you before you could finish your shot --> You are now in debt 1.5 shots

You still can’t run away and have to stay crouched! You have to finish your debt! Freddy hits you again and you go down. --> you are only in debt for 1.5 shots, the rule does not apply again.
Freddy carries you to a hook and you have enough time to finish your shots.
Be aware, if you do not finish your debt before you have to struggle, you cannot struggle! This will cause you to die and come in debt of 2.5 shots!

0.5 – shot rules
Whenever a survivor is saved, that was not saved by you, drink 0.5 shots.

• (2 player variant : When a survivor is not saved by one of you, drink 0.5 shots)
  If you go down with full health, while being “exposed” and die, take 0.5 extra shot on top of the die shot.
  Whenever you die, drink 0.5 shot.

1 – Shot Rules
Whenever you are found in a locker, drink 1 shot.
Whenever the killer hits you before you have drank your debt, take 1 extra full shot.
Whenever you die in the basement, drink 1 extra full shot.

2 – shot rules
Whenever you call out a killer, and it is the wrong killer, the player who did the call out needs to drink 2 full shots.
Note: you can still “think” it is a certain killer.

3 – shot rules
If you are in debt, and do a “new action”, drink 3 full shots. This rule must not be broken and must be respected!

Note: For instance, the exit gates are opened and you get hooked, all your teammates escape except for “1 random player”, the random player saves you from the hook  You need to drink 0.5 shots
You cannot run! This is a new action! Finish the 0.5 shots! BUT: you notice the killer is close, and you will not make it if you need to take the shot first, you sprint for exit gates and escape.
You broke the new action rule, but still won, you now have a debt of 3.5 shots.

Note 2: keep extra shots ready on the side, in case you know you will have to drink, keep them ready! The faster you take you debt shots, the faster you can start running!
If everyone in the group died, while the killer had no perks on, take 3 full shots. You are a disgrace for this game…
