Please consider allowing progression in Custom Games

Hi,

I'd have such an easier time if I could let me friends who are new to the game level via playing custom games with me, introducing them and teaching them while they earn bps and rewards and the like. This would allow more ways to play and encourage groups of friends to play custom games more often who'd not normally play the game.

Please consider it! This would be good for new players and for groups of friends, make it happen.

If its the everything unlocked feature of it have it a toggle to allow you to use your actual progression to enable bps or w/e

    People would just farm in customs and kill off normal/event queue since you can do anything you want on there.

    I recall rainbow 6 siege. Mostly a pvp game which i avoided that part of the game entirely, because i enjoyed the coopwrtive mode against bots called Terrorist hunt. It also had progression. I never played the pvp mode because that existed. But eventualy even the people playing terrorist hunt, gave up on playing the hardest difficulties and just flooded easy difficulty ques. Which they would just run through the building killing all the enemies in under 2 minutes, when in harder modes i enjoyed which were now dead - you had to move about slowly and use tactics to survive not being taken out in 1 shot.

    So basicly everyone will take the path of least resistance, and the normal ques might even start to die out like he said^. Like why play against possible swf teams when you can just mow down all the bots all day everyday.

    I think the people downvoting don't play other games like Fortnite etc where you can gain exp for battle passes in all modes.

    People will always prefer playing with random players.

    By allowing custom game progression even if it had a cap, would allow players to learn with friends and make a path forward, its a more welcoming experience and won't turn new players away.

    it's reminding me of people who don't want emotes, yet people USE PERKS that act like emotes and its fine or the snowballs.

    Yes. This.

    To the topic, after a very short time, and especially if one claims all BP rewards or uses cakes, BP become easy to get.

    So I do not think this is necessary.

    I understand that they are easy to get, but it's the same reason why 2v8 is so popular, people like playing with their friends.

    If people could actually play killer with their friends (customs) and get points while doing it, it'd open up the game to an entirely new playerbase who are very casual.

    Those of us who don't play with friends will continue to play public queues, heck killer players may face against less SWF's as they keep asking for.
