Halloween event (Long post)

This sounds like a good idea. I would like to see Halloween Mask for Survivors. Kind of like the plastic ones with the black elastic band on them. Maybe we could unlock them if we collected a certain amount of Jack-o'-lanterns or Candy pieces. What do you think @not_Queen

Hey guys,

I have an idea for a Halloween event, or even as an extra to a Halloween event? I’d love to see a new fun dynamic in the game and I want to see what people think.

I was thinking that during a trial there could be a ‘Jack-o-lantern’ that survivors can pick up. The lantern would be hidden and look similar to a hex totem in regards to size and look except being a pumpkin not a skull obviously.

You must choose between the lantern or an item, you cannot carry both. If a survivor escapes the trial holding a ‘jack-o-lantern’ they will be rewarded with say, 10000bp? If the jack-o-lantern remains in the map when survivors escape or the killer 4k’s then the killer will be rewarded 10000 bp.

Another idea in addition could be that the longer you are in possession of the lantern you gain points (like being in the basement). 

If the killer hits you (even without franklins) you drop the lantern and the killer will get 500 points on top of points for the hit. This would give other survivors have a chance at getting the lantern.

I realise this would really encourage sandbagging so maybe there could be 4 lanterns in the trial to avoid this? Obviously the point values might have to change if there were more?

This may take the pressure off of the gen rush in some matches with survivors searching for the lanterns. This dynamic could also be used for other seasonal events too.

My only issue is that after the gens are finished in a trial, survivors won’t leave without a lantern which could cause frustratingly long matches?

There’s is loads more I could have added to it but didn’t want to make it ridiculously long! It’s only a rough idea at the moment but thought it could be a fun little extra and switch up gameplay? 

What do people think? Please feel free to point out anything that could make it better or any flaws that I haven’t thought about! 

Cheers! 👍🏻

they could make it so you earn points for as long as you carry one but if you drop it, it breaks making it so you can't pick another up! it be awesome.
