Survivor is even less fun during Events

I don't have any fun during events as survivor. It's already hard enough to get bp as it is and on top of that you get ######### selfish players who tbag you when they sandbag you because they played a cake so what do they care if you get caught because of them? They got away, so more points for them. And then I can't even queue as killer because I wait 15 minutes and can't get anything. So what's the point of playing the event.

    Use current BP to get what event stuff you want in bloodweb now. Then take break until event is over. Can log in daily to get your shards then go play something else. People sticking around to play while having miserable time just shows high player count and makes devs think event is success.

    Yeah but unfortunately even logging in tells bhvr people are playing even if they don't continue to play that day. so idk. but I'm with you. I'm not even using cakes if I'm in solo queue because too many people are acting like #########.

    It’s a pain in the ass for killers too right now. Had many games last night of people pre dropping pallets in healthy state.

    To be honest this is why I play killer during events. I don't go out of my way to farm, but once everyone's in death hook and my points are otherwise maxed I have no problem letting survivors go and have their extra 5,000 x whatever survival points

    Yeah as killer you can determine how the match goes, whether it's "play nice or play serious." It's why I want to queue as killer, but I can't even get a match as killer within 15 minutes. I know I could always play other stuff while in queue, but I'm not really in the mood to play other things and I don't want to have to keep checking to see if I'm in a lobby. And most of the killers I'm going against are playing scummy, more so than usual. Like the "go after person who was just hooked even though I'm currently in a chase with an injured person and the hooked person is now healed" kind of scummy. That's most of my games. And then I have survivors constantly farming me off hook in front of a killer that's playing like that without Borrowed Time.. so I'm just all around having a bad time in the majority of my games.

    Yeah I don't doubt that it's bad for killer too. Events are bad for both sides because it brings out the really selfish ones that only care about the points they make and not about whether their teammates or their opponents have fun. I really wish something could be done, but you can't change the way people play.

    I've two Insidious Bubba who facecamped in a row. Like, I don't ask for farming games, but I was expecting people to enjoy the event.

    Just now, a Nemesis who tunneled someone, and two people DC at four generators.

    I can't wait to have even more fun in my next game. At least, getting the Crown is easier as a Killer... I hate the fact Survivors have to escape for it.

    It's my first anniversary, I was super excited to hunt the Crowns, to earn BP... No one uses the Gâteaux, only shack and map offering.

    And most of the time, Survivors wait that someone else do the generator, so they can hide to escape with a Crown.

    I guess I keep my Gâteaux as a collectible.

    Yeah same, I don't ask for farming games either, I just want a well balanced game where damage is spread out evenly among all survivors so everyone gets a chance to do something and get points.
