A tweak to BBQ & Chili

Due to the “DC epidemic “ if a survivor DCs before a killer is able to hook them can you guys just tweak BBQ to automatically give the killer a token? (No aura readings just a token)

    I was ready for this to be a proposed nerf but yeah I'm cool with this.

    @ClogWench honestly I have no problem with BBQ as a survivor because there’s TONS of counters but when I’m playing killer and someone DCs before I’m able to hook them I get a sad face because my tokens 😢

    WGLF should be the same, at least 1 token when a survivor DCs, if the killer DCs I think it should count as 4 tokens

    Ooof, I made the same suggestion. Some people went mad and said "no you need to earn your stacks" lmao

    @DwightsLifeMatters I came to tell him about your thread but you already did it lmao

    Honestly, this change has been asked so many times before and the devs ignore it. I have lost my hope. I will be very happy if they make a change like this but I don't expect it anymore.

    @DwightsLifeMatters & @Delfador my bad I didn’t know there was already that suggestion

    @DwightsLifeMatters

    Whoever disagrees with this idea either doesnt know what he's talking about or is just trolling...

    Those stacks would be a compensation. Why do I, as an individual player, have to be ######### up by someone else when they DCed because of whatever stupid reason? Those who DC will get no punishment, they'll get another lobby and they'll play whatever they want. Meanwhile I, the guy who stayed in the match, will find myself in a 3v1 game and without a stack of my perk...

    Don't worry it's no problem, I just wanted to share that there are some people who are extremely stupid and biased that they wouldn't even agree to that QoL change lol

    In general the DC of a survivor should give the killer the equivalent effect of a death hook (points and hook stacks for BBQ and Lullaby) and survivors the equivalent of an unhook(and possibly heal).

    Hmmm, I wonder if you're referring to me. Even though I explicitly said I don't think survivor or killer should get free stacks. Instead the DC bonuses should be larger, for both sides. The bias!

    I guess I'm truly stupid and biased for having a different opinion about something ultimately inconsequential.

    The bbq stacks on DC make sense as you can't get them otherwise. The wglf ones less so, as you can just unhook somebody else. I don't oppose either, but the bbq one is needed I'd say.

    Well, your opinion in this case is half right. You should get more points in general for a dc. That has nothing to do with bbq stacks though. Like why on earth shouldn't you get a bbq stack if some yahoo dcs before you get them on a hook?

    Bang on. I'm usually dragging a flashlighting tbagger to the hook when they DC. At that point, with a paltry 650 brutality and a loss of a stack, who does get the last laugh? Clue: not me.

    And then there are people who proceed to advocate dcs against killers or survivors. Not here of course, thankfully.

    DCs need to be punished if it is proven that the dc was intentional. If a killer dcs against a group of people who use items, they need to be

    This so much. It’s really not fair that Survivors can rob Killers of 25% extra BP just because they got downed once.

    I can 100% agree with this, in all cases accidental or on purpose. I've had a few matches where I've been kicked just after finishing a gen for no reason since the new update, I don't see any problem with giving compensation to the people left in the trial as it sucks for all parties involved. Probably needs to compensate more than just the killer stacks though as @ClogWench stated seeing as it's robbing both of points

    Which is kinda true if you use your brain and think...

    No one robs you, you get all of your points, the extra from teh perk are a bonus.

    Survivors rob eachother all the time , which is why anyone rarely uses WGLF.

    Before any changes like this will be done they should also come witha change to WGLF. It's way easier to get those BBQ stacks than WGLF stacks anyway.

    Change WGLF to give a stack for each completed generator instead of save/cover and then you can give the killers stacks for DC.
