Wanting Bloodpoints is not Entitled/Selfish

Making my last post kind of pulled the last straw for me.

I've been constantly seeing responses here and there on forums about bloodpoints specifically in this anniversary event of wanting bloodpoints being entitled, and or selfish?

I don't get it, everyone wants bloodpoints... how is complaining about people not using a flan entitled/selfish in that matter? It's frustrating as someone could use it but choose not to, even if they don't know how the game could play out.

It's frustrating to see people think it's selfish or entitled when the subject of matter could just be flipped around to very easily make the one person who doesn't want to use a flan, look like the entitled or selfish one.

Am I alone in thinking this?

    Because some people, like me absolutely hate playing killer? I was that kid that cried about being the seeker in hide and seek because I hated it so much. I had over like 800 hours or something in Friday the 13th as survivor and when I got Jason I literally closed my game. Why in the world would I play something I hate?

    Not really what I'm wanting, but if we could come together to allow us ALL to get as many bloodpoints as we could ; regardless of how the game is going to pan out. It's based on that one opinion that it's a waste, when really it's not. You get sooo many flan during this event, that afterwards your going to be the only one with a flan unless you do SWF and it'll be a slow progress afterwards to earn all the BP from the flan you saved in-stead of using it during the event.

    Then don't complain if the killer does what his name implies - kill people. He doesn't owe you anything! You are really just an entitled brat, probably that kind of child that's gonna throw a tantrum at his parents for not gifting him the "correct" thing for christmas. Grow up.

  • Jaxton2000

    Calling a grown adult an entitled brat is not what you should be saying to someone. I don't expect anything from a killer and never said that and if you think i'm implying that you're wrong. Stop arguing with me and the narrative you think I have, because it's not there. I expect killers to kill. I don't play this game expecting rainbows and unicorns and everyone lives and we all get slurpees. I get to vent, and express how I am feeling and you get to do the same, there is no reason to insult someone to tell them to grow up, and call them a brat. Thank you.

    And I told you what YOU could do to change it - go play killer but you just say "I don't want to play killer myself BUT I want the killer in my games to suffer through boring matches so I can have more fun/bloodpoints"

    Just accept the fact killers are allowed to play the way THEY want. If that hurts your feelings too much, maybe it's time to log off and do something else.

    Exactly, I agree with this. I don't really see people demanding it like that though. I see if someone doesn't want to use it then sure, but they should know afterward they won't be personally seeing as big of a benefit had they just used it when everyone else was using it. But, if they're fine with it then I guess let them do what they wanna do.

  • Jaxton2000
    Jaxton2000 Member Posts: 162

    Did I not just say that I don't expect anything from the killer in the reply I had to you, but you still have the narrative that I have a problem with how the killer plays?

    If someone doesn't want to play killer then someone doesn't want to play killer. I never said either that I want to play farming matches only and watch killers suffer. Can you literally stop implying stuff I never said? It's uncalled for, and it's rude on top of the insults you threw at me.

  • Jaxton2000
    Jaxton2000 Member Posts: 162

    Then I guess that's your opinion, but I allow other people to do what they want with how they want and have no problem with it. If that's viewed as entitled to I guess it is.

    But also, disagreeing doesn't mean your wrong. It means there's a clash of opinion and one could view an opinion as right and the other as wrong. It depends on the person. Everything has a validating reason.

    Why do I need to use my flan NOW? I can use it later when I actually am low on bloodpoints and everybody in my match will still get the bonus at that point. I'm not being "selfish" just because I'm not listening to someone else complain that I didn't use my bloodpoint offering RIGHT NOW solely to help them out.

    Wanting Bloodpoints is indeed not entitled. Demanding that the opponent let you all live instead of only the last Survivor IS entitled, however.

    As I said to you in that thread, it's more that killers get cussed out and told they are horrible people no matter what they do. I let half a group go yesterday, and got pooped on in postgame for doing it, because apparently it's insulting. The game after that I killed one person, and got cussed out for not letting them live.

    If killers are going to get insulted for killing anyone, and for not killing anyone - why shouldn't they just kill everyone and maximize their own BP gains?

    Go ahead and tell me.

  • Jaxton2000
    Jaxton2000 Member Posts: 162

    I never insult people, sorry you have to deal with that. I only asked him why he let one leave and they responded with "hehe"

    not both sides are clean of annoying people.

  • Jaxton2000
    Jaxton2000 Member Posts: 162

    I never said I expected them to let me live, that being insinuated. I said it was odd that the killer didn't when they were acting like they were farming but still ended up killing people. The killer as I had stated in a reply later in that thread was acting extremely odd. Acting like they were farming, but then weren't and it was sending mixed messages to me, and it was indeed confusing. But, I didn't have a problem with how he played, I just thought it was very odd.

    Everyone on this forum likes to rile themselves up for no good reason, It's not my fault they like to get so expressive with themselves and make themselves or myself look like a fool just from me wanting to vent/rant on a forum. It's up to them whether they post a comment.

  • Jaxton2000
    Jaxton2000 Member Posts: 162

    I agree, one of my other threads based on something like that was spawned due to a killer giving off mixed messages of if they were wanting to farm or not, standing still in front of pallets, but not close enough for you to actually stun them with it etc. I saw them let the last one escape and when I asked why they played the way they did all they responded with was "hehe"

    Therefor spawning that thread of personal frustration as to why they'd do that but stand around like they were wanting to farm when they weren't... probably the most odd match I've had to date in DBD.

    And to other people that see this and have seen both my threads, I was not meaning to come across as "Let ME have the points too!!!1!" it was more so just misunderstanding of what in the hell the killer was doing. I was not trying to look selfish, other people in that match could of earned an escape too had he wanted someone to escape is all I was thinking, or he could of let the match live on a little bit longer, just little things. Obviously not what happened, but it went the way it did and that's fine. It was never to have been taken the way it did.

  • Jaxton2000
    Jaxton2000 Member Posts: 162

    Yeah, I know. It was never meant to be like that at all.

    I want bloodpoints, too. But I don't go expecting people to cater this. I just play like usual. So grow up.

  • StarLost
    StarLost Member Posts: 8,077

    I never said they were. I'm saying that, from the perspective of a killer, you're going to get abused no matter what you do - so why shouldn't you just look after yourself?

  • Jaxton2000
    Jaxton2000 Member Posts: 162

    Please read what I've said, and stop insulting me. I haven't said anything about catering to it. Just complaining.

  • Jaxton2000
    Jaxton2000 Member Posts: 162

    I do, and that's why when I notice the game isn't going well I just dip out on the hook if the killer wants to tunnel me. If I notice the killers trying extremely hard on top of already probably being naturally good I just can't let myself get annoyed by it, so therefor I just stop trying at all.

  • Triplehoo
    Triplehoo Member Posts: 707

    Yeah, sorry. That last part was little unnecessary. I just get ticked off every time I see posts like yours. Just try to play like you usually do, and you'll get bloodpoints.

  • M4dBoOmr
    M4dBoOmr Member Posts: 598

    you even get 50+k BP on a fast lost match (if you don't get hooked in the first second and nobody unhooks you of course)

    just stop caring if you do t get the maximum points, play the game and the BP will come no matter what

  • Shaped
    Shaped Member Posts: 5,906

    Bp is not a priority for everyone. At least not maxing it out every match.

    Wanting others to play how you want them to is indeed entitlement.

  • Jaxton2000
    Jaxton2000 Member Posts: 162

    Yeah, for me it's usually like 20k on a fast lost match as for some reason I'm always first to be hunted and I usually suck (thanks matchmaking!!) but the inspiration is nice, thanks for that.

  • RYANGUNSLINGER

    Oh your that kind of person, ok and try to take this nicely as possibe because this comes from someone who does play both sides and will farm BP with others but if your complaining about people not playing how you want. You should probably consider playing single player games if playing as the ones who's "it" (Jason for f13, killer for dbd or actually being it for tag) causes that many problems

    I play nice and fair ~ People dont bring Frightful Flans because they expect to get paired against a tunneling/camping killer or I get harassed Post-Game even though I let people go.

    I farm with other people ~ Im bored out of my mind, people still dont bring Frightful Flans, and I still get harassed Post-Game because survivors dont want to farm (they want to actually play the game).

    I play to win ~ People dont bring Frightful Flans, 3-4K, and get harassed Post-Game because playing the game to win is apparently a sin in the eyes of the lord.

    There is literally no winning, I swear, I want to try and keep a positive mood about the whole thing but it's just so hard to do atm, I just want BP, nothing else.
