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.

Map offerings got OVERnerfed

Why would anyone ever use a map offering now? 20% chance of success, when you could be using a Bloodpoint offering instead. But wait, it's not even 20%. If another player puts down a map offering, your chances are even lower. If a player uses Sac Ward (which at this point should be removed), you have 0% of success.

After the FNAF map queue is gone, if you're a FNAF enthusiast, and want to go to that map, guess what:

  1. good luck with no-one else using a map offering or a sac ward
  2. then good luck with those 20%
  3. and then even if your ofering (Withered Isle) does work, you still are not guaranteed the FNAF map, because you have 33% chance to get it, instead of Greenville Square, or Garden of Joy
  4. If you are a new player, and a FNAF fan for example, good luck amassing the Withered Isle offerings into your inventory in the first place. You would need a LOT of bloodpoints and a lot of luck

The most decent thing imo would be to put the map offering success rate to 50%. And sac wards should decrease the success rate of all map offerings, not completely counter them, since map offerings no longer guarantee anything.

    Map Offerings should BAN maps, not select them.

    Yeah map offerings are useless now. It took me ten tries to get a map with them. Either remove them or buff the numbers.

    one player being able to force four other players to go to THEIR map is stupid.

    When has anything ever been nerfed and not be over-nerfed?

    This is a perfect example of a minority of Snowflakes crying about Map Offerings and some new BHVR intern dev listened and decided to nerf them down to 20%. The fact is Map Offerings were a great feature of the game and could easily be countered by another Map Offering or Sac Ward. There was absolutely no reason to nerf them but the devs ran all over the timeline. 🤦‍♂️
