I'm thinking of sitting out the Blood Hunt

Games have reached peak toxicity and frustration. Be it as Killer or as solo Survivor, everyone's an ######### towards everyone. This event really only brings out the worst in people.

    And this is exactly why I avoid playing during events, even if I have the time.

    They don't like doing bloodhunts because of this, but who cares it's double bp idc and there is way less toxicity in low ranks on PS4 only people who steal my stacks of WGLF.

    Who cares? With the right offerings and perks you can turn a 5k game into 25k+

    The people that play like that are garbage and are an easy win. You really need to get better and stop whinging.

    Easier said than done.

    It's really not, just learn and practice and get better. If you feel that you have reached your limit and can't play any better, then you've probably been outplayed. The amount of killers I see that make mistake after mistake after mistake and then still moan about things is ridiculous.

    I mostly play against people wanting to farm. It's actually very boring since I don't care about the double BP and just want to play actual rounds, not farmland.

    I've noticed killers being massive jackasses and tunneling one guy all game and only getting one BBQ stack and still seeming satisfied. But while I've had a few toxic survivor groups most of them have been pretty decent. I'm having a much better time as killer than as survivor for once. I think it's because the survivors know the killer can ruin their BP party at any time by tunneling and camping them.

    I get the entire opposite of Survivors. They will use several Bloody Party Streamer Offerings and come with several BNPs.

    Can't say how it's like to play killer since I gave up on waiting after 15 minutes of no survivors joining , but can say that killers seem to be sweatier and campier than usual, even when they get free streamers as well on top of the x2 bp weekend.
    I gave up after 5 matches, maybe will try again tomorrow. The game isn't really fun like this and the x2 bp isn't worth it.

    Same. It really doesn't make any sense. When I play killer during this event I'm running Make Your Choice just to make it easier to hook everyone at least once. Once everyone has been on the hook I start to play normally. Nobody gets tunneled early on because I want my points.

    Just played two hours as survivor, came across 4 separate cases of killer/survivor cooperation farming.
    SO frustrating when you try and have a fun evening with some friends.

    Maybe they could just halve the cost of everything in the bloodweb for these events instead? Same net gain in bloodpoints:items ratio, but I don't think there'd be as much dickish gameplay

    Not sure how that would change the way people would play. It's essentially the same thing.

    To all those complaining about all the bnp get over yourselves good grief, they're getting used up before they get nerfed. A s akille ri understand that and when I see streamers I go for my kills but also farm, especially when there's 3 to 4 of them.

    Most of my games as killer survivors are really cool and rarely toxic even before the bp event. The killer side is a different story, try hards, campers like nurse/shape using insidious etc.

    Yeah, about sick of the BP event, too. Got farmed on the hook 3 times today.

    It's a different kind of mind set. People think "oh stuff's cheap so I can play normal and still afford what I want in web." Instead of "must do everything I can to be a point pig!" It would work, on stupid people anyway and after all isn't that the folks we're talking about, stupid ones? :)

    Same here. I've tried to make it obvious that I just want to play the game, and still get survivors bodyblocking me mid-chase to let the killer put me on a hook. If I didn't participate in the mass unhooking of the other survivors, why would they think I'd want them to farm me for points? The worst game of the bunch only had two party streamers in play, but I was having to waste Dead Hard to get around the other survivors and I ended up leaving a decent medkit behind because the farming killer was using Franklin's. That one made me salty enough to quit playing for the night.

    I don't care if they farm each other. They shouldn't expect me to be happy when I'm forced into it unwillingly.

    I mean I have over 40 moris stocked on LF alone, and I gave a 4k away into a 2k to let the last 2 farm because one disconnected. We're not literally all being #########.

    Ofc it's anecdotal and there are exceptions to every generalization but most people seem to be decent for me.

    I mean be your guest, all bloodhunt is, is either people farming or going full try hard on both sides.

    I've had multiple people say gg to me, and given the same back. I've gotten 3mil bloodpoints and prestiged on character to Lvl 50-III already in a matter of 2 days.

    Haven't received one salty message in the last 42 hours... and I've been in a 4 man SWF group for most of it.

    Well, some people are farming due to wanting to get easy bloodpoints. If I see 5 streamers and I'm the Killer, you bet my ass that I'm farming. That's x6 the amount of bloodpoints + Thrill of the hunt + Distressing + BBQ

    And for survivors it's x6 the amount + No one Left behind + We're gonna Farm Forever and i've gotten like 300k from one match once. Worth the quick 15 min of farm.

    @DocOctober I usually run OoO, Solo Survivor, BT, and WGLF. It prevents the killer from finding me so I can't get farmed from other sand bagging survivors and I can safely unhook survivors WITHOUT sand bagging if the killer decides to camp. I just play extra cautious when I play survivor during 2x BP events because sometimes your allies are the killer lmao.

    Haven't really seen anything toxic aside from a couple of tryharders, campers, and a teammate-farming-bitchass Kate, but even then, it wasn't so bad. Mostly normal games. But I play in groups of 2-4 so I dunno.

    I was about to say something positive but then realized that the OP is head admin of the DbD wiki.

    What a fecking crybaby.

    What a feckin rude person you are.

    My occupation, with you want to call it that, has nothing to do with this. Get lost.

    Umad? Bro why you so mad?

    11/10 would troll again

    But really you're just kinda proving his point. Though IMO his point applies to the community as a whole. The game is toxic AF. Some of the top DBD YT/streamers are toxic AF. This forum is toxic AF.

    I want to enjoy this game but it becomes so hard lately. Everyone abuses game mechanics that need fixing, which have been pointed out for a long time now. Devs are more focus on coming up with these wild solutions instead of actually fixing the broken parts. It's not hard to figure out. Killers need something to keep the game going at a reasonable pace so they have time to chase and get kills. Survivors need something to combat the tunneling/camping that killers so vehemently defend as acceptable despite it being far too easy to do effectively. Also there needs to be more perks that help with loops, like Brutal Strength or Bamboozle because those are annoying AF playing killer.

    The game should reward skill more for both sides and find ways to get people to play nice with each other. As foreign as that may sound to some, the lore of the game doesn't absolve you of being an #########.

    i couldn't agree more.  it can be fun against swf but it veers into harassment/agitation and to make it worse, their intent is to post such onto youtube.  i don't mind as much anymore because as long as i hook a couple, i can do ok as far as points and rank now.  no longer necessary to camp and tunnel.  god bless the devs.

    If you're feeling burnout, I recommend The Long Dark. Very fun, realistic survival game and its singleplayers so it cant be toxic

    Well in low ranks everything is still fine (except queue time). When players get more experienced in playing the game, thats when the unbalance of this game does not only shine through, it literally hits you in the face

    Haha! Well you know...4 Streamers by survivors, 1 secret mori offering. You get the point. But ok that was funny :P

    So did I understand that correctly that if the killer brings a mori to a 4 man streamer offering party from teh survivors, then this is considered toxic?

    Quite interesting :P

    Of course it is! What, are you going to claim the Killer didn't know the Survivors' offerings beforehand? Everyone knows that Killers check EVERY Survivor profile for their bio, written in real-time.

    No it's not toxic to bring a mori, but it's just a waste of the streamer party offerings if the killer decides to not make full use of the offerings. Same goes for survivors who lose out on thousands of points by bringing in BNPs during such events.

    ? I'm confused. I know using BNP and insta-heals don't track well for emblems, but when you do an entire gen by yourself you get 1250 objective BP. So no, they are actually farming points pretty hard with BNP.
