Kill Switch update: We have temporarily Kill Switched the Forgotten Ruins Map due to an issue that causes players to become stuck in place. The Map will remain out of rotation until this is resolved.

We *really* need to increase Sacrifice Points.

Here's a screenshot of a game I've just had:

As you can probably guess, the game went pretty well. I got 12 hooks- not just killing everyone, but 12 individual hook states, and yes I saved the gameplay in case people don't believe me. Emblems this game?

Pretty good, too. Hopefully this adds some proof to the 12 hook claim. How about points? You can probably see, but:

10k across the board or- wait, no. No it isn't. Sacrifice is capped at 8,400, and will always be capped at 8,400 unless you voluntarily allow survivors to finish all 5 generators and enter the Endgame Collapse, at which point you then gain more points for any "Late Hook" score events.

Except- they only did 3 gens. I played incredibly well, considering the fact I don't play Spirit like ever. I physically could not have gotten more hooks if I tried- so why am I being punished for playing too well?

I know the most recent developer update said that they didn't want to buff bloodpoint gains, but come on. The fact that I couldn't have done better in that category given the circumstances (no, I was not about to farm for 2 gens and then kill them all, that's just mean) and I'm punished with less points than is possible is stupid. So, can we please increase the amount of points you can get in the Sacrifice category to at least 10k for a perfectly excecuted 12-hook 4k?

    I feel your pain. I’ve had a couple games that ended at 5 gens and a 4 man slug with oni. I never got any points for ending the game so early. I think you should be rewarded in playing well, thus ending a game quickly.

    I’ve started letting survivors recover if I start damaging them too much too early. I’ll go afk for a minute or so to let them get each other off hooks or up from slugs, get healed and start back on gens; just for the sake of my points and pipping.

    Yeah that's what I always thought since the updated points. There's no way a killer can get 10k sacrifice points if they were designed to get max 8k.

    Easy fix.

    New score event: the first time each unique survivor is hooked, you get a bonus 500 BP.

    This replicates the incentive BBQ used to have, and can make up a potential 2000 extra BP.

    They made escaping go from 5k to 7k bp for surv so, yes this needs to happen

    Either increase how much you get when someone is killed or maybe a better idea is just increase bp across all hook related score events - which should also apply to killers who have powers that interact with the sacrifice category like PH and Onryo
