Casual/SWF

I personally think that if a casual mode ever comes into this game, it should be completely seperate from the ranked mode. What i mean is, the casual mode should have everything the kyf mode can provide.

Mainly:

1-The absence of bloodpoint farming,

2-All the perks, addons, items, and offerings being automatically unlocked and being unlimited.

But it would totally fix a lot of issues!

 One of the first post I put on this forum was a similar thought, that if you split play for rank from casual then everyone could practice but not against the same 3,4 people like KYF but against all kinds of players but without the "I have to play this way and be super try hard to hold rank" thing hanging over our heads. 

I love the idea that swf wouldn't be a part of rank play. You'd have to build for and actually be good to hold rank. Also now you could set rules and have your emblems drive the kinda competition play dev's would like to see without the clear outlined objectives ruining the freeform casual that just want BP's. So balance could very from that of the casual to keep both play styles happy.

In fact how about rank play is just for rank and shards no bloodpoints at all. So to get anything from the blood webs you'd have to play in the casual bloodpoint arena first get some skills and what you wanted for items and then go for rank solo. And shards could be for rank only. So cool skins in store would have to be bought with $$ or you'd have to have played well in the ranked environment.

I think this would solve a lot of problems people have because if the killer camps for example he would be dumb to do that in a just BP match because he would earn more by keeping the game moving so camping and tunneling arguably survivors big two wouldn't happen in casual because they dont need the sac for their rank. And killers main issue aside from looping which not sure if you can fix that really? But SWF wouldn't be an issue because you couldn't do it when it really counts for rank.

Devs please, please read this conversation and address why not, if you guys dont like the idea, because I think its brilliant!! sorry this post is so long!

I dont think that the player should be forced to play casual, if you only want to play ranked, then he should be allowed to and gain BP/shards doing that

Sure I understand that, but the only reason I suggested it was the idea that it would keep both game modes full of both survivors and killers. Seeing how i imagine killers would gravitate to rank and survivors would want to play SWF for the most part and not care as much about rank. I think there would have to be some incentive to play both modes.

No one would play ranked if you get all content for free in casual. That will never happen.

Nobody suggested that lol, all content free would literally mean no money for BHVR btw

First person responding to OP said casual should provide everything KYF has. Maybe I should have done a quote instead. Sorry.

Ranked would get shards for things in the shop and casual would get bloodpoints for things on the bloodwebs. 

You'd play "casual" earn all the perks and items you want to make a run at rank. 

Rank is then how you'd earn shards for stuff that isn't needed but is cool like outfits and skins and perks from the shrine. You could still have rank reset everyone but to 20 at the start of the season and anyone who made it to 5 or lower would get something cool like a killer head that you cant get any other way or a cool shirt for survivors maybe you could give rank 1's a special color variant of the item of the month?

I just think this game needs to give people a reason to keep playing and playing both killer and survivor.

The main point is if you separate casual from rank you give people a way to enter the game with the right mind set and people would be less upset with each other, you couldn't get mad if the killer shows up to play for keeps in rank mode, it's what it's for and you better bring your A game too, and remember no SWF so... As it sits right now I think it's why people butt heads so much some of us show up to do our best to win and others just want to play around. Very annoying when one of those goes against the other. This idea fixes that.

Having ranked be the only way to earn shard would easily destory ranked play. See overwatch gold guns for an example.
