Map offerings are useless now
I've been using map offerings to try and go to the new walking dead map, so far I've used 30 offerings for it's realm and every single time I've been sent to a completely different realm, no one else is bringing offerings so it's not like mine isn't being chosen. Map offerings are useless now, changing them was useless, both survivors and killers used them to their advantage so I don't get why they needed to be changed. Anyways I'm annoyed, that's all

Good! That’s what we wanted 🙂

My biggest gripe is that if they're going to associate challenges and new chapters with new maps, the offerings should have more of an impact. But if they're not going to have any impact at all, then they shouldn't be in the web. It's a waste of time either way.

Honestly, I would have preferred if they had adjusted the maps and left the offerings as they were.

I wasn’t trying to be rude. A lot of people on this forum (including myself) have asked for maps offerings to be removed from the game.

They double downed too hard on balance as with most things. From the sounds of it they don't want Killers using anything but Survivor Pudding.

Perfect, now I can finally see something except Eyrie, Autoheaven, Ormond and Badham. And it's enjoyable af, finally play on different maps.
It should have been like this for years.7 -
Still say they should have just consolidated them into indoor and outdoor offerings instead of specific realms. Might have been too much effort though.

I have no problem with it being useless, my only problem is spending BP for map offerings in the bloodweb, would be really great if they are all deleted

True it didnt matter if I played killer or survivor, survivor players were spaming these offereng left and right finally I see more map than before only thing thats affected by this in negative way is scratch mirror mayers they should give this addon higher chance for indoor maps.

They're just bloodweb clutter now. They need to just remove them completely, and move away from map specific achievements

Good. They shouldn't exist at all for either side, they are just a waste of bloodpoints now and when they were actually strong they were unhealthy, so it's probably for the best if they just get removed.

It's definitely frustrating, but genuinely do think the game is a better place with map offerings not being so prevalent as they were before. 5,000 bloodpoints to make or break a game wasn't a particularly fair or fun game aspect.
It can be frustrating if you're trying to go for achievements, but thing you can do is just play the game and forget about it. You're going to escape on that map eventually, just make sure you're on that gen when it pops if possible and you'll have the achievement and never think about it again. If it has an aspect of random chance, trying to force it will just be frustrating and fruitless.1 -
I just wanna use Ichorous Loam to play on Freddy's or maybe once in a blue moon get to try the new map, think I've gotten the realm twice after playing about 20 matches in the past couple days.

"both survivors and killers used them to their advantage"
Exactly:
killers send you to midwich with nurse to instantly see you die without much you can do, and survivors send you on eyries as swf to see you die without much you can do. Maps are simply too badly balanced to give people the choice of the map they want to play, you can easily choose a map to destroy your opponent and the only thing that they could do would be always using a counteroffering. On itself that wouldn't be too bad if offerings weren't also meant to be the slot for bloodpoint-offerings.
In the end it was absolutely the right call to nerf them to the ground. You can still win, but it doesn't win you games.

Game is even more boring and unenjoyable without map offerings, don't let them lie to you. Both sides still winning/losing the same and will complain how it wasn't their fault they lost, regardless of maps offerings being in game or not. That's when you know they never actually cared about offerings it was just another scapegoat in a long list of scapegoats. That's why this game is in such a sad and miserable state where no one has ######### and it feels like a chore to play.

First of all "even more boring and unenjoyable":
Speak for yourself - playing 8 times a day on eyries or the game because of mapofferings is not enjoyable OR interessting. Only one that lies here is you and that to yourself.
Second thing:
You can tell yourself what you want, but no one in this game would call maps in general balanced. Not even if you look at the count of maps that are leaned to one side you'll find a balanced number of maps that are good for your role.
While I agree that not every round is lost because of the map, I will also say that the map also has a huge impact on your abilities, and style you have to play and therefore if you win or lose.
As example indoor maps are the general death of huntress:
you just have to play a offering for lerys and you'll probably able to see the huntress not being able to use her hatchets 50% of the time as a 4,4 killer - bam easy win just because you used a offering that kills her power laughably effective. Of course that's a problem with huntress and indoormaps, but at least it's random now if you lose because of that, that's 100 times better than losing because of an offering.
That specific case now is a hardcounter to her power because of the general form of the map, but then there are maps like mothers dwelling that have insane loops and are huge, that you simply won't win with a killer like myers probably. He simply can't do much except running in a circle with you around insane loops with normal speed, his instadown and potential mori doesn't even matter because he won't be quick enough to traverse the map probably to defend anything.

Sure, Jan. Whatever you have to tell yourself that helps you sleep at night. The current state of the game speaks for itself. 🚮

First game RPD
Second game Swamp
Third game RPD
Fourth game RPD.
Guess which game survivor brought RPD map offering?
Yep you guessed it game 2. The only time I wasn't sent to RPD.
Thankfully msp offering didn't work as 3 out of 4 games In RPD was more than enough.

Well seems like you must have a really bad day/time in general, so I'll end it here on that awnser.
Btw is my name Tim not "jan", well I assume that was some kind of thing to provoke me or a saying of some kind anyways - probably doesn't matter then anyways xD
