Chinese Firecrackers... (Last Seen 2 Years Ago)

The last time you could obtain this item was 2 years ago (2023) during the Moonlight Burrow event.

It seems like BHVR has shifted away from bringing the event back in favor of just releasing Chinese New Years collections, which means that these items just never have a chance to show up in the Bloodweb. It also seems like BHVR has shifted their focus to working on the Blood Moon event over the Chinese New Year event.

Now, I know what you are thinking, "the Winter Party Starter/Flashbang does the same thing so why does it matter" but these items are only out for a limited time, and Flashbangs do not save in your inventory so this overall reduces your ability to bring insta-blind items into a match. On top of that, some people like to collect event items and the fact that these have not been seen in 2 years bars a lot of new players from being able to obtain them.

    I want to see them make this a new one time use item, similar to Fog Crystals, you can get in the bloodweb. That would be something interesting and new for Survs, and something to play around for Killers - a new game element.

    It should come as a base-game, all-year-round item.

    Since the LNY event is gone, why keep the firecracker locked behind it?

    Chinese New Year and related items have been retired in favor of Blood Moon. Feels like a downgrade honestly, I liked the toolboxes that launched fireworks.

    there's needing to hit skill checks for BNP, then there's needing to hit skill checks for those fireworks.

    I love those things so much!
