So the best survivor strategy for Moonrise is

Don't save your teammates from the hook, genrush 2 gens, take the hatch

    As far as I understand, you get points when you complete generators and unhooks etc. So this 'strategy' is both risky and less rewarding.

    Also hatch games last too long and I think that even with the thing, it is not worth it

    This event is again anti solo Q. I would have liked it more if it doesn't matter you carried it out or your mate. So ultimately, if someone takes out the "event objective" to the exit every survivor (who escaped aswell) gets rewarded. Would be much better to play as a team in solo Q. 

    So either Killer, or SWF or beeing a selfish egoistic bastard in solo Q. Normal Solo Q seems to be impossible.

    Sadly, dbd is always anti solo survivor.

    Rush generators and escape for maximum points.. even worse than before.. siiigh
    When will the developers learn?

    Not really. Actually best strategy might be to take vessel. Avoid beeing hooked as much as possible. Rush gens and if somebody get's hooked, unhook them, so the killer can't destroy vessels etc. I think the game will actually be quite normal just very fast.

    Is it true you'll need 4,500 points to get all 3 outfits? If so as much as I hate to say but rush the gens and try go for a vessel if you can at the end...

    Yep Exactly, but this will only work with swf. Solo's are mostly stupid greedy 4heads feeding the killer with the vessels and at the end noone will get progress but the killer 
    I need to get some decent mates to play swf during the event. ..

    Just rush gens, cleanse totems and try get a vessel or two because killers will take advantage of the event by playing noed every game with iron grasp and agitation.

    beeing a selfish egoistic bastard in solo Q

    This is what this game was supposed to be, by design. Before they patched in a half-baked party system.

    But this is already the default gameplay.
    Those remaining 3 gens stay there for eternity and everyone is next to hatch by Bond.

    Not quite there are 2 vessels base so you need at least 2 offerings and no hooks for everyone to get out with one.
    3 or more offerings in case the killer breaks one everyone can still get theirs with a 4 man escape

    The devs said that hiding in a locker after getting a vessel will hide 99% of your vessel aura so:
    1. Pick dwight
    2. Grab vessel
    3. Hide in locker

    This event is going to cause so much anger in the community and it hasnt even started yet.

    Killer DCs survivors lose everything, ok then. Have fun with that console players, will happen on pc but console killers are going to abuse this. 

    2 survivors left, one on hook, hatch available. Nobodies going to make saves, theyre going to ######### out and look for hatch. 

    2 weeks more toxicity than normal are headed our way and the devs are encouraging it.

    Time to break out the 4 man swf teams, all running ds and dh. Get the vessels, gen rush and hope killer doesnt dc. GfookinG.

    I agree 100% with you. These events are always toxic. If you don't get lobby dodged as well.

    Being on console though you also must see survivors dc all the time bc they used ds and got knocked back down or don't want to face the Doctor, or Legion or Freddy or whichever killer they don't like. the entitlement is real. Even during double bloodpoints we had so many disconnects coming from both sides.

    I wonder if you use franklins you can knock the vessel out of their hands. It would be funny just to do that the whole match.
