No extra BP during the event?

I got the impression that we were supposed to get extra BP during the lunar event - is this broken too or did I get faulty information?

    Are you really surprised the events are always bugged at launch.

    We're getting the extra blood points I believe, it's just an extremely low amount that isn't that noticeable.

    Ooooh. That is really underwhelming.

    I got some for holding onto a Lantern and another 5K for escaping with it.
    This of course wasn't saved :( but I did see points for the lantern.
    Didn't see any extra for generators.

    Have YOU played a Red Envelope? Otherwise you won't get any bonus points.

    I think they're updating the Red Envelope. I think it'll only give extra bloodpoints the event actions. Like taking a lantern or destroying one.

    I was hoping that we could get 4500 bloodpoint for gen completion and 5500 bloodpoint for hooking a survivor just like in the previous events.

    I am a bit upset :(

    Nope. Didn't know you had to sacrifice something in order to reap the extra BP. I didn't need it during the winter festival.

    Me too. We were so hyped to do some grind!

    Ok. Better than nothing though!

    So far I noticed that:

    Unhooking a vessel = 1000 points
    Escape while holding a vessel = 5000 points
    While holding a vessel I got random 500 points - Maybe from gens being fixed, or just how long you are holding on to it.

    Not sure about killer though

    It's fine.

    Getting a Lantern is 1k, and every minute or so is like 500 bp with it.

    So that is fine. I'm not seeing any BP for fixing a gen when I played a envelope... and as killer I get BP for destroying the lantern when a survivor is hooked, but nothing for hoooking them.

    They only reason people complain about event based blood point bonuses instead of just giving us a blanket double blood point event is because the event blood points are always way, way lower amounts than we would have received from a typical double blood point event. They just need to start making the bonus blood points we get from doing the events much higher than they are, where as the amounts we get now are just so underwhelming. Not to mention during these events that we also have to waste blood points just to get the envelopes to participate in the first place.

    That is because the Winter Event was a Blood Hunt.

    Haha, you make me realize that I know nothing about this game :-)
    Is Blood Hunt a special type of event? How often do they occur?
