New Game Mode - Rift Riots

A new game mode - Rift Riots

Every player starts with zero perks, but can progress through interacting with rifts to unlock up to 5 perks total


Each team can see there current rift and the next tier of rift , however cannot interact with the next tier rift until the current has been completed.

New hud element to show what tier your team is on, and a sound that plays indicating the other team has progressed.

The first rift is allways red, the second blue, 3rd is gold 4th is green, 5th is purple each building slightly in difficulty or risk to complete somehow

Killer can see rifts through walls within 20m

Survivors share rift progress but must find it with standard line of sight.

All perks can be pre chosen before match but are not given to the player in any chosen order

Both teams current tier of rifts locations will randomly change after some amount of time without interaction ( each teams timer is independant of eachothers) and the next tier rifts will change to current tier.

If a survivor should run close enough for a rift to open, it makes a sound the whole team can hear, and reveals the aura and color of that rift for a few seconds ( for solo players )


let me know if you guys like this idea or have any ideas, even if the mode is unranked and capped at a certain amount of bp less than normal matches, I think we could all enjoy the mix up of meta perks and the added objectives and challenges this mode creates.
