Map offerings are 50% killer and 12.5% survivor chance?

Does anyone know if map offerings are 50% killer and 12.5% survivor chance?

Eg killer offers map A and 4 survivors offer map B, there is a 50/50 chance of being sent to either map?

    Killer map offerings are as "strong" as survivors. If 4 survivors are taking haddonfield and a killer takes the game. There's 80% chanse that the map will be haddonfield.

    as far as I remember, map offerings do not stack.

    for example, if 4 survivors are taking haddonfield and the killer is taking Lery's, the chances are always 50/50.

    That would sound fairer but now I have two different opinions on map offerings now

    Three different views on how this works, looks like nobody knows

    In fact, the biggest problem starts here. When another map offering is thrown and this desired map does not hurt, the user quits or sells the game. If the desired map does not open, that offering must be returned, unfortunately, it does not exist.

    Spoke with a nurse who DCd who offered a small map and lost to a big map a survivor had burnt.

    After nerfs I can see why a console nurse wouldn't have fun in the corn fields, makes me wonder if killers should only have map offerings as the match was already won especially the state of the game at the moment

    Still left wondering percentage wise how do map offerings work

    Only killers should have map offerings???? So half the maps would never be seen. Just endless indoor maps as most killers do better on those. What a great unbiased idea :-/


    Killers in this game wont be happy until the only thing available to survivors on the bloodweb is no mither(although they would want the noise reduction nerfed) and green keys. Nothing else ever is allowed on the bloodweb. Meanwhile their bloodwebs are overflowing with moris, map offerings, add ons and perks.

    "So half the maps would never be seen"

    That's a bit far fetched unless maps become easy to get hold of for killers.

    At the moment it takes just 1 of the 4 survivors to choose a survivor sided map, sounds fair?

    Reading your comments makes me wonder why make me believe you are calling me a killer main?

    Actually I read further about overflowing of things on the bloodweb and have decided why am I using logic with you except unless your arguement is because you say so? Please be realistic and constructive

    Map offerings are very easy to come across. Especially if you main one killer character. You get a ton of points every round because of BBQ. There would never be a shortage of maps that you favour.

    It doesn't take 1 survivor to get a survivor sides map at all. If one survivor plays a map they have the same chance as you with your map. You seem to think it is fair that a killer should be able to constantly play the map they favour and survivor should be banned from ever choosing a map because it isn't fair????? That is what pushes you in my mind to be a killer main because you want everything to be on your terms.


    Your killer, your map, your add ons etc survivor just has to take what they are given by the all powerful and "fair" killer player.

    pretty sure they dont stack.

    so if a killer takes an offering for map A and 2 survivors take an offering for map B, the chance for both maps should be the same (50/50).


    i might be wrong here though, tbh i havent used map offerings as killer in ages...

    Under the idea of this thread that only killers should be allowed to pick maps I can imagine that map would be every single game haha and you'd still get killers writing ez in the after game chat like they did something amazing.

    If by "half of the maps" you mean cOrN, then I 100% agree, no one wants to see these maps.

    Actually, just delete them, no need to touch map offerings.

  • Archimedes5000

    You are missing the point.

    1. Surviviors have 4 times higher chance of bringing map offering
    2. There are at least 5 survivior sided maps, but not even one killer sided. If we talk about specific killers, then maybe The Game, because its good on stealth killers.

    I'm not missing any point you said just 1 survivor needs to pick a survivor sided map. Like that would trump the killer playing their map. It wouldn't. You just want to moan about how the killer can't choose the map every time and you think they should and the reason for that is "because you want to". Even the justification of saying there are 5 survivor sided maps is crap. Why should it always be one sides decision on what map is played? It shouldn't be. You can't see that because you want to play a killer sided map every game because unless 4k is handed to you otherwise you'll scream and scream and scream until you get your way.


    Killer mains always cry about how they want balance but what they actually want is everything to benefit them. They wouldn't accept actual balance in any shape or form.

    No, you dont understand. Lets say that average player uses map offering in 10% of their games (just an example, exact numbers dont matter).

    So, when I am playing survivior, there is 10% chance, that Killer will use map offering.

    But, when Im playing killer, there is 21% chance that ANY of the surviviors will use map offering.

    So, surviviors send killer to map of their choice more often than killer sends surviviors.

    Now add the fact that there are more survivior sided maps than killer sided maps, so killers have no reason to use map offering, and we it turns out that the difference is even bigger.

    Why should it always be one sides decision on what map is played? It shouldn't be.

    Yeah, exactly. Map offerings should be removed and maps balanced so they are fair for both sides.

    No, you are the one that assumes that Im a killer main just because I dont like map offerings. Its a fact that surviviors use them more often, thats why Im "killer sided" in this thread.

    I play both killer and survivior, and Im sorry, but DEGENERATES LIKE people who use Coldwind Farm offering BELONG ON THE CROSS.

    From the wiki:

    Their effects stacks and are usable by both Survivors and Killers together.

    An Offering will not be used if you are not sent to that Realm.

  • Carpemortum
    Carpemortum Member Posts: 4,506

    Each one increases the chance of THAT map being chosen, but not stacking.

    1A, 1B, 1C, 1D. All have 25% chance to be chosen.

    1A, 4B. All have 50% chance to be chosen.

    Ita about how many different map offerings there are, not how many of each.

  • andyollolloll
    andyollolloll Member Posts: 940

    So 4 survivors play different survivor favoured maps the killer would only have 0% or 20% of a killer sided map?

  • andyollolloll

    The more I look at this game the more I'm surprised they haven't allowed the survivors to kill the killer

    I haven't ever played a map offering as a killer. Now if they created an offering that guaranteed I wouldn't go to Haddonfield. I would play that a lot.

    50% chance. Read the correct answers and not those you want to read.

    Sadly it will be used.

    The idea that Killers would have some kind of unfair advantage if they had the bigger influence over the map choice is ridiculous.

    Killers tend to not use as many Map offerings because most strong Killer maps are in Realms with several other possible maps (ie Azarov's, Shelter Woods). Whereas very strong survivor maps are the only maps for those realms (Ormond, Lampkin Lane), or the entire realm is survivor sided (Coldwind, Red Forest). Even maps that can be Killer sided like Lerys or The Game often vary wildly depending on the actual Killer. Huntress/Billy/Oni aren't doing themselves any favors with an indoor map offering, so even the guaranteed maps are only useful to specific killers and builds.

    While maps remain unbalanced map offerings should be disabled.

  • Aven_Fallen
    Aven_Fallen Member Posts: 17,654

    Its exactly this why Map Offerings should not be burned if another Map is choosen.

    Map Offerings are the one thing which limit the use of Builds like that, so they should not be wasted.
