Idea for Prestige Rewards

Since the majority of the community is ok with the new prestige rewards but not really happy about it and it's definetly less than we wanted, here is an idea.

Of course prestige skins would be amazing, but let's be honest: They're extremely unlikely or impossible to do. If DBD brings new prestige rewards, they'd want to do it for every character. And let's take a look at The Shape, The Cenobite and Laurie Strode. They're still playable characters but without an ongoing license. I'm very sure that prestige skins are not possible for them. And even characters like Quentin Smith and The Nightmare are extremely unlikely because they didn't get a single skin since release.

I'm sure it's not easy for DBD to do prestige rewards, but an idea is to bring back the bloody prestige portraits. Why and how should this work?

  • You get different colored prestige portraits (e.g. bronze portrait for P25, silver portrait for P50, gold portrait for P75 and iridescent portrait (same colour like now) for P100)
  • This would be a visual reward and wouldn't get you any advantage ingame
  • It would probably work with all licenses, because the character portrait itself wouldn't change, but the color or background

Of course this isn't a perfect reward, but it'd be more than now and it's an realistic idea.

Problem: In this case, what should we do to those who have bloody prestige portraits at the moment from back then but are not P100 yet? In my point of view, those players shouldn't loose them. They grinded them back then and they earned that reward. An option would be to only unlock the iridescent variant for them. Example: Someone has Dwight on P15 and the player has a bloody prestige portrait on Dwight from back then. In this case, the player would be able to only choose between the basic 'black/gray' portrait and the iridescent one. The player can only choose the bronze/silver/gold portrait aswell if the player would level Dwight to the associated prestige. This would be a relative inconsistent system, but fair to those players.

What do you think about returning prestige portraits? Ideas or problems you see with this? Do you have any other ideas for prestige rewards? Let me know and let's discuss.
