    I'm disappointed they didn't make all hooks/gens event hooks/gens like they did for lunar new year. First match killer just camped the event gen to prevent survivors from working on it. 😔

    It's at least a start (and seems to have implemented the Blight Serum into a more on-demand and less janky feeling fashion, though with a bit of RNG and need to stop by the pumpkin)

    Had it literally just been reskins of Gens/Hooks then I'd have completely lost hope from their game-design team.

    People enjoy complaining. Last few days I saw people even making up things just to bash on bhvr.

    Look I know bhvr is not perfect but going crazy about every little thing is just silly.

    Still, everyone is free to do it, I won't stop you. I am just saying what I think about it.

    Would have liked to have seen a Halloween exlcusive killer, Halloween challenges that are different from the tome. Double xp or certain maps or with certain characters, in match collectibles to find for prizes.

    As someone said, kicking pumpkins is a start 👌

    Stranger things 75% sale everything, some dude not understanding a challenge and saying bhvr effed it up etc.

    I know this is disrespectful and no game company will ever do this. But if I was the head of BHVR and saw the criticism of last year saying the Halloween event sucked and there was nothing. Then I add an actual thing to do in the event and you guys say. Wow kicking a pumpkin is a event. I would say this in a Twitter post

    “######### you we listened to your criticisms and now you still hate it? ######### you now you get no event just like last year”

    of course I would never do that cause I’m not a bad person

    To secure sacrifices, not prevent the survivors from progressing their event

    Ah. I don't know about those ones. I almost believed the stranger things sale myself

    We just had a patch that broke a substantial amount of the game, cheaters and hackers are worse than they've ever been, killers are generally unhappy with the current state of the game, this even apparently went back to the old format where event gens are offering related rather than every gen/hook being event oriented which just make things take more time overall, and generally speaking this is the general response of the DBD community on the forums. If you came here looking for general happiness then you've made a mistake. This is not a game that breeds and fosters a sense of happiness in all its players currently. Hasn't been for like 2 years.

    the community is kinda toxic

    well actually VERY toxic

    This game is literally a huge drug. It feels good to play it’s fun but very addictive the people have bad mentality’s. Trying to quit the game gives you withdrawals.

  • ReikoMori
    ReikoMori Member Posts: 3,333

    I don't know about that one, chief. I've quit this game several times and stayed gone for lengthy periods, only coming back when the game has something to offer me or I spend time with people who want to play. Maybe if you're new it can be addictive, but when you're getting infinite loading screens, game crashes, hackers, and mind breaking balance decisions thrown at you you're gonna have no problems complaining or leaving.

    I have played 7 matches today so far with zero issues.

    The killers aren't camping me or the event gens, and I've smashed many jack-o-lanterns.

    I like the event, Blight was getting old.

    We have a halloween exclusive killer his name is Myers and he comes with his own map.

    I mean they have now proven that they never learn from their past mistakes; in the past, killers would intentionally defend only the event gens, and survivors would sabotage the event hooks specifically. They fixed the sabo issue, but not the other (simply making it not obvious or even making all gens/hooks event gens/hooks would fix this easily with no need for the fix to sabo)

    Their events in 2016 were better. Now all we get is "haha kick pumpkin here you go another for honor charm heehahahaha."

    By the way, these guys literally said they were canceling all other events in order to make their big events (Halloween + Anniversary) more special. They've only gotten worse.

    I can't say I'm surprised to see people complaining.

    Or the devs can actually put in some effort like they used to.

    I'm not the one playing right now. I've hardly played since the RE chapter so this doesn't effect me.

    But you got your answer and it's a valid one, so don't try to brush it off.

    I mean to be fair, what else are they gonna do? More pustules? How much different is that to slapping a pumpkin with your shin.

    Yes.

    What effort? Do 100 gens and get a recolor like summer bbq?

    Stuff different and yet simple like the old Lunar Lantern events...

    I quite like the event even though I have not managed to find a pumpkin to smash yet lol.

    An extra rift, sort of an extra objective and costumes to earn. Not quite up to the pustula event but one of their better ones recently imo.

  • Chilli_man2400

    No I don’t care about iron will. I saw gameplay of the event and it looks fun as ######### and people say it’s bad? This looks so much better than last year

    The Event is okay, nothing to get excited over really. Kicking pumpkins, and more Paid Skins what an event. Not to mention the Infinite loading screen bug and the MMR sweat fest i deal with every time I play.

    I made an entire post where about the pros and cons of the event because I care about the quality of events, and it's been slipping for more than a year. Here's the text from said post, in case it got deleted.

    I'm a veteran player nearing 5k hours of gameplay, so I've gotten to experience a lot of events in DBD's history. I've always considered the year 2018 of having the best events in the game's history, and so I hold events to that year's standard. The Midnight Grove event is both fun and thematic, I like being able to smash pumpkins on both sides. I like that we earn event exclusive content, and that this time, it was properly integrated into the archives challenges having its own separate tome for it. The archive challenges are relative easy in nature and each challenge can be done in a game or two on either sides. That's good! It's also good that it features the new survivor, Mikaela in it.

    My main criticism of the event however, is the lack of blood points that come with it. All of my characters on both sides are either prestige 3 level 50, or high levels thanks to unlocking teachables, and so spending points in the bloodweb, I'm only about to get one Cursed Seed offering every other bloodweb, or every few bloodwebs. Additionally I've found that if you play the offering as survivor, and a Tangled generator gets completed without you working on it, you don't get any extra bloodpoints for it unlike previous events. You only get these extra bloodpoints if you're working on the gen at the time in which it's completed, which is also unlike previous events. So if you either chased the majority of the match, or are unable to work on the Tangled generators, you don't get any extra bloodpoints, and thus the offering is useless for that match.

    My minor criticisms of the event is that it only spawns in 1 of each special objectives by default, in previous years it was 2. With it being set at 2, if all players brought in the offering, then all 7 generators would be transformed into special generators, and the killer would get an additional hook around the map as well. Also, I am very much against the idea of participation points for players who decide not to bring the event offering, as it disincentives them from using it and because of the decreased bloodpoints that I discussed earlier, why bring it then.

    To sum it up, and to ultimately improve the quality of the event and the gameplay experience, because I care about Dead by Daylight and continue to play and spend money on it, can we make these changes before it's too late. Can we increase the amount of Cursed Seed offerings in each bloodweb, and guarantee 2 per bloodweb after lvl 30? Can we make it to where if players don't bring the Cursed Seed offering, they are unable to benefit from the event outside of the archive, including getting extra points, and that they're unable to kick the pumpkins which award very points as is. Can can we also increase the amount of pumpkins that spawn into the trial, or increase the amount of points you get for doing it. Can we also fix the offerings to where they award you the bonus bloodpoints when a Tangled Generator is completed despite not working on it, like in previous events.

    Thank you to any readers who made it this far. My goal of this discussion, as rare as I make them, is to enhance the quality of the gameplay with thought and reason put behind it.

    Thank you,

    from a concerned player
