    If you only got 2 kills and weren't camping but still depipped then you were making some mistakes. How long were your chases, did you damage gens to hinder progress etc. As a killer you can still pip even without a single sacrifice by hindering progression, hooking people, finding survivors.

    You can also get points for chases, getting hits and getting downs. If you manage to pull someone off a gen, window vault, pallet hop, healing, or stop the unhook you get more also. If you playing Billy or Leatherface use the mallet for 1st hit and chainsaw for 2nd since you'll get way more points.

    As Billy charging across the map actually earns you chainsaw sprint points and the longer you go without hitting anything the more points. The Huntress long range sniping earns a lot of points, especially if it's a blind throw.

    Try checking out the official Wiki on what awards points and how much each point cap is for each action. You can also look at the emblems on your screen under each one to see how close you were to the next badge.

    Simply switch to survivor or play another game, thats what the devs suggest.
    We need enough killers to stop playing such they realize that they cant continue like this and actually need to balance the game.

    Devs suggest if you are having a bad time or are exhausted of playing killer. There are bad days :p

    What was it about suggesting certain things being bad again? Just as I stated in another thread several other regions have huge imbalances on one side or the other. so when the heavily killer sided regions can't get a queue they pop to survivor side and vice versa. It'll be no different here on PC side, when I'm killer and can't get a lobby I swap and same when survivor.

    It depends on lots of variables and we would need to know what emblems you got to determine how you played..

    I don’t see any other reason you would de-pip besides camping unless you’re really that bad at the game.

    With 2 sacrifices, you would’ve at least safety pipped...

    The point system can be screwy since it's 4 seperate categories and goes in increments of 1.

    So if in all 4 categories you score 1.9 the game says you got 4 points not 7.6.

    You can mouse over each emblem to see how close you were to the next increment.

    I wouldn't worry about rank it's meaningless

    The game isnt region locked anymore, just fyi

    You can definitely depip with 2 kills. You can even only blackpip with 4 kills and you can pip without any kill, yes the emblem system is weird

    Not necesarily. Since the emblems don´t take the different play styles of killers into account:

    I believe it was early this year, but dont cite me :wink:
    At the moment I can easily verse NA or asian players when I play in the EU at weird times. The ping is not always decent, but as long as they arent russians, its manageable usually :lol:

    The game is broken in many ways. It makes it very frustrating when you do a good job and get punished by the game mechanics. On the survivor side of things since people believe they got it figured out - I play plenty of survivor. Got to rank 8 before the reset and it's 100x easier. All you need to do is x amount of objectives and still pip so dying and getting sacrificed is absolutely meaningless. There is 0 reason to fear the killer in this game.

    In fact people forget it's a team game and as long as they pip they don't care if they die or all 3 of their teammates die, they still feel they won. However even on the survivor side there are major issues. It is extremely frustrating to do a great job in a chase, lose the killer and still get downed when you made it safely to the other side of a pallet or window and still get hit.

    I have avoided huntresses just to get hit after i have already turned a corner because of the hit boxes. I have completely fished the wiggle bar to 100 percent completion and still get hooked because there is a killer vacuum and the killer slides 5 feet sideways to hook you.

    On the killer side of things it's completely opposite. I have kicked gens, broken pallets, hooked every survivor and hooked one of them twice and barely got any points. I have done all the above lets say hooked every survivor once, kicked gens, broken pallets, done damage and only got one sacrifice and still either barely got points or depipped. So questions;

    Why is the progression system so broken? Why is one side objective based and the other is soley on how many kills you get? If it's based on how many sacrifices the minimum being two then if i met the requiremens why get very few points or depip? Why is the game so one sided?

    To answer some of the naysayers above i do not camp 99 percent of the game. I have no problem defending the last hook. i have chased, done damage, broked pallets, done damage to all the survivors, either already got 1 sacrifice so that is my second. Or it's my first sac after doing all the above and still after doing my job as a killer, doing a great job the entire match I barely get points or depip.

    So i will say again, the game is broken. fix it already.

    And for the one person above since it seems so important,

    thanks.

    it always amazes me after writing a lengthy post or reply some people still just don't get it. Worse they think they have the answer. rofl.

    Have you stopped to consider that perhaps may'be people do get it, they just have different opinions of it than you. It doesn't make you right or them wrong at all. Just because you and or anyone that agrees with you doesn't make you right anymore than anyone that disagrees with same.

    when their only answer is you just must be bad at the game - no they don't get it. Like the above post where he claims he loves the audacity of some to make vague statements when that is exactly what he just did. rofl. they have 1000 answers and 0 reading comp skills. Enough said. It's too early to feed the trolls.

    Yet you ignore all the other posts where people make counter points and cherry pick those you don't like. What you seem to want is yes men type responses nt those that challenge your arguments. In his other post he said he tested the camping theory just to make a point about that single fact.

    Just a few posts above that @Tsulan posted proof you could double pip without doing anything in 2 other categories. On this very forum there's countless posts by killer mains about pipping without getting a single sacrifice.

    You've yet to prove that it can't be done because as you say the game is broken when it fact it's been proven you can. As I sated earlier did you damage gens, how did you chases go etc, how close were you to each emblem.

    The below screenshot shows what I'm talking about as far as emblems progress goes. Since you can see I'm on the verge of getting a gold which would've made me get a pip instead of a safety pip.I was basically mere seconds from getting more gen work in then went to save someone from a hook which cost me a pip since they got saved before I got there.
