We need rewards for “winning”

At the moment, it kind of feels pointless to win, as survivor and killer. We don’t really have any rewards for winning except ranking up, which personally I couldn’t care less about my rank since if I rank down I’ll just end up playing against easier opponents which is sometimes more fun.

Theres always been a debate about the objectives in the game, which the devs tried to solve with the rift and the archives, giving us more secondary objectives. But how about just fixing the primary objective? Winning. At the moment there’s no real definition for “winning” in this game. Is it surviving as survivor? Is it getting the 4K as killer? Or is it pipping? I think that should definitely be looked at. But to finish my argument, let’s say that winning is pipping.

Now what could some rewards be for winning? Win streak/BP multiplier could be one. Every time you won games in a row you would get a slight BP multiplier and as soon as you lost that streak the multiplier reset. This would make games much more intense and exciting, since everyone is trying to keep that multiplier up, and losing is actually punishing. This would reward players for actually doing their best, and would make that BP grind easier when effort is put into it.

A lot of creativity could be put into this. Like what if if you won 10 games in a row as as a character, their perks would be unlocked in everyone’s blood web. There are many rewards possible, even cosmetic like the rift, all for just winning instead of throwing down 15 pallets in a chase with a killer like the rift.

Let me know if you think this is a good idea, or let me know what else should be rewarded!

    I was just thinking the same thing the other day. xD There is no reward for winning other than a temporary ego boost and rush from the experience (if it wasn't too easy). Cosmetics should definitely be something that should be unlocked through winning. Maybe earning a certain amount of "points" allows you to unlock something. We would need a LOT more cosmetics, though, and all characters would have to be treated equally since some have way more cosmetics than others. I would love to play for cosmetics. I'd die for some mascot type outfits like a unicorn or a giant cat or a hamburger costume. Yeah, I'm weird. lol

    But yes, I totally agree with you 100%. You have some good ideas, too.

    Also, I just want to throw in here I think that characters sharing rank is silly. Not sharing rank would allow people to take breaks, sometimes much needed, from higher ranks, and would stop people (potentially) from de-pipping by DCing in matches. Also DCing could make people lose "points" for buying cosmetics or whatever. Just saying.

    Yeah, the issues should be fixed first. I definitely agree with that. All systems need the same TLC. PC is treated like the favorite child while the consoles are neglected in the corner wishing for the same love and attention.
