What would you like the event to be?
Hoping to get a discussion going on what you would like events to be.
I feel everyone is disappointed by the whole "we're cutting back on events to focus on Halloween and Anniversary events" and then literally copying and pasting (didnt even copy the finished cakes from last year).
This isnt feedback, I want to ask the community what SHOULD have been done.
Hopefully, at the very least, this can act as inspiration (or just straight up use any good ideas idc) for next years and future events.
The following things are things which I think would be good:
1) Homescreen/Campfire. Give us a themed homescreen. Its just a nice friendly reminder to get while you log in. Heck, use the one from last year - its not around long anyway...
2) Bloodhunt. The cost investment to get cakes doesnt equal the bloodpoints returned (unless everyone stacks. And even then, it only take one person to screw everyone). Maybe a flat 2x BP week? Or just 1.5 for the period? I just hate having to spend bloodpoints to have a chance to get more bloodpoints...
3) Themes. Make it different/special. Maybe role reversal? Gens become human sacrifices that the "survivors" are trying to complete? "Killers" are trying to stop the "survivors" from completing the sacrifices? Maybe give survivors killer cosmetics, etc.
What about you guys? What would you have liked to see or hope to see in the future?

Fixed! That's the main thing I want

Something closer to Howling Grounds or Scorching Summer BBQ.

I love when games add a specific new tab to the event. usually Arcade where players can get a random item or cosmetic.
New mode to play in can be real fun.
Special item ticket to give access to new maps.

I want new mechanics for events, especially since the Devs said they will be putting more effort into the two. With the introduction of Resident Evil, the Devs could have given survivors temporary items like baseball bats to kill zombies that randomly spawn throughout the map, no matter who the killer is. Though the item shouldn't affect the killer unless the killer gets a counter for it or compensated somehow.
They need to come up with things to break up the monotony of the game and give it some freshness.

Not a copy and paste

Here is what I like out of an event:
- Event currency that is earned by playing matches. Easy peezy.
- New cosmetics that can be purchased with that event's currency. I think they did that with the Lunar events???
- Make the survivors Event Medkits and Flashlights something you buy with the event currency instead of in the bloodweb. Save bloodweb for cakes only.
- LOTS of cakes or just make the event have a bloodhunt.
- Update gens and hooks to match event theme (they do a good job at this already). They can take it one step further and pick a couple maps to dec out. Not every map needs to be done but maybe each year a map gets a special event design.
- Make crowns a purchase with the event currency! I get why its a escape condition to obtain but it also paints a target on people's backs. If people have to play the match well to earn a decent amount of event currency that should help with DC or suicide on hook.
- Love what they are doing with the Shrine. Keep that up ^^
- Also love the daily log in rewards. That is awesome!
- Contests! I know there is a cosmetic/charm/art/cosplay contest every year but it would be nice to see more of these, even in a mini form. Its just fun allowing the community to compete and show off their skills. Maybe the winners win a ton of that event's currency and some shards! Can never go wrong with community engagement.
Oh and I think the Devs should pick the top three cosmetics/charms or anything that will be in the game and then the community votes from there what they want :)

and one that's not a copy+paste version of a previous event. But with a 1% difference in numbers.

things id like to see:
separate objectives (like the lamps, canker sores, etc) to get event currency OR have the stuff like the slushie makers from the bbq
cosmetics/charms that can only be bought with the currency
more bloodhunts in the event (or, just more bloodhunts all around. it’s annoying that the last bloodhunt was like a year ago)
have event item spawns be much, much, much greater. its dumb that you basically get punished for having a level 50 bloodweb, since it takes more BP to level up and theres chances that event items wont even spawn. there should be at least 6 event items in the bloodweb for survivors, and 3 for killers
and also, id love to see something just new for events to make the game less stale. lately they’ve only been “heres event items and a bp multiplier offering! thats it!” or simply just log in rewards, its sort of lazy
