Thanks for the bloodpoints!
Thanks Devs for the 50% extra bloodpoints for the next three weeks as well as for listening to the community!

why not extra 100% as always?

Yeah same here, I didn’t notice anything. I’m excited though. Hope it’s true
1 -
In all honesty I’m fine with anything, as it’s better than nothing.

Thank you for listening to us!

They tweeted it about 40 minutes ago.

Also just tweeted that new skin, looks pretty sick.

That's a good question. 2x BP is great and all, but a lot of people jump on that and farm as much as possible. Farming matches are fine if you're just after the points, but they really ruin the game for people who want to play normally. It's not a big deal usually since they're only four days long, but since this one is three weeks long, we don't want it to get in the way of normal gameplay for that long.

Good call!

That’s what happened when we had games with five gateaus in them.

So does camping, tunneling and slugging as an overall plan, but you're ok with that.
Look, glad we got 1.5, but don't use such a lame excuse for not going 2. Just say that you don't want to ruin the fun of the grind.

I really don't get people who want to farm. Go play killer with bbq and even being completely potato you will get more BP than farming as survivor.

I don't have much to add beyond "this" and pointing to the OP a bunch.
We're bound to have some complaining threads about how this gift to us isn't good enough so I want to do my tiny part to have a " Thank You" thread overshadow the whiny threads.
5 -
Sadly there is already a thread complaining about how we should be getting double, but personally I’m just happy that we got listened to and that the devs rewarded us.
Either way it’s better to have a bit of good posts here and there.

Blood for the blood god! Skulls for the skull throne.
Hey beside a 40k meme, what else can i say besides woot blood points baby and thanks alot for them.
1 -
Might need to get that.

Quit whining. Those are tactics adopted because Survivors haven't been curbed appropriately. Toolboxes are still a problem, as is synergy with repair speed perks. Combined with the inability for what should be a terrifying, overwhelmingly powerful Killer to effectively stop/punish three to four ostensibly normal human 20 somethings from acting like smug fools, it's a lousy experience for we Killers to feel powerless the way we do now.
Their trying to give us something because of what's happening outside, so stop complaining.
2 -
The DEVs gave us a BP bonus. Why y'all complaining. Be happy that you didn't get anything at all
1 -
god forbid players want to take advantage of double bp to bypass the tremendous grind that is necessary to acquire useful perks. 2x BP should be the standard honestly. The grind puts off so many new players. Whats the point of even having different lvls of perks? It's just an unnecessary grind.
Also if you guys are worried about people farming have you seen what the archives do to people?
1 -
Now lets complain about it. Who is first?
2 -
I don't care what they are, they are still very frustrating for players, especially at lower ranks. Farming hurts nobody. Huge difference.
Those "tactics" cause more frustration than any farming. So my comment is that Peanits explanation holds no water. As for your childish response about whining, you may want to take a look around as I'm known to play killer and advocate for changes to help equalize SWF. The difference is I'm a mature person who realizes this is a game and toxic tactics are not healthy in any game.
Kids these days, they don't know how to discuss things, nor have any sense of sportsmanship.

BHVR gave us some boost, but it's not 100%. I'm so upset that I can't get those extra 3 items in the bloodweb after each match. BHVR sucks blah blah blah >:c
0 -
BHVR is also sooooo killer sided. If they don't give us 4X bonus bps, I'm making a "I quit DbD after 1257 hours" post, yeah you heard it right
0 -
Killer sided 😂😂😂 Dude please just stop playing the game. We need less whiners.

I just prestiged Clown too.
Good, good.

Wait a second...
Peanits, I love you so much, can I get a hug? 😍
1 -
Would you rather have a bloodhunt for 4 days, or a bloodrush for 20 days? You earn more overtime with this bloodrush compared to a bloodhunt.
3 -
no peanits huggies for you 😛
1 -
Peanits loves me, how could he resist? 😁

lmfao hug 6ft apart please
or hug like this

Why not just be happy they did something at all? They could have just done nothing. =)

Thank you for everything and all the hard work.

Don't worry, I got my face mask beside of me for when I travel. 😁

Some people are just never happy.
Shush don't tell them about the math.
1 -
As if 1.5 will make a difference... 🙄
0 -
You do realize that we have two sides of a medal, right? Somehow people have to win and it will frustrate the one or the other, some will find this and that cheap. Especially amusing when it comes to such fiction like "camping" and "tunneling", whose alleged definitions are not only nonsensical, they are also as diverse as there are heads.
So, where in your response was your argument again?
I can discern so far out of your writing that you want a single player mode or a code of conduct that players would have to adhere to a certain pattern you favor most.
1 -
The fact people are seriously complaining that it's 1.5x instead of 2.0x when the event is 5x longer than normal is baffling.
1 -
1.5x will make a difference over 20 days, much more than 2x for only 4. This is much better than the blood hunts. If it was made 20 days of 2x it'd make the normal blood hunts look meaningless by comparison.
1 -
But if it were 3 weeks long farming might not be an issue. Due to the fact that they feel like they can have 21 days instead of just 7. So they could play normally and still earn what they could have farmed.
The last 3 or 4 days of the event is when they would farm the heck out of it due to the feeling of: "Oh shoot I spent it all on a Prestige Claudette and I wanted to get The next chapter's killer to max level!!!"
So yes in some cases farming could happen. In most likely scenario though they would play as if it were a normal match until the last 3 or 4 days of the event.

This will increase my playtime over to what I usually play dbd, which is a lot. Thanks a lot? ^^

The system punishes camping and slugging also tunneling is a legit tactic, not a good tactic and you will stay stuck in low ranks as a killer doing it but a legit tactic non the less.

As a rank 4 survivor and rank 5 killer i find this post great satire! Keep em coming! :D

Agree, thank you BHVR alot!

Always fun to see the people who are upset. I didn't check the forum until today, but when I logged in yesterday afternoon and saw the 1.5x boost, I literally said "oh hell yeah" and proceeded to play the whole day to boost 2 of my killers to 40 so I get the teachables for my Doc. Seems like it was a massively good time to switch to PC from PS4, this event makes the grind almost negligible to unlock the perks I want over the next couple weeks.
Awesome timing, and thanks a ton, Devs. There may be issues with the game and it is extremely hard to balance, but small things like this event (which isn't totally small since it's a couple weeks long) go a very long way for community health ^_^
Side note: the number of games I ran yesterday with streamer offerings and stuff was crazy. And it brought out a lot of survivors that weren't nasty when they won or lost (killer main so I've been tired of that part of the surv pool). All in all, amazing choice

Your reading comprehension is lacking at best. This was never an argument, it is opinion. Overall census of most posts from one side or the other consider certain things to be overly toxic or frustrating. Winning and losing is not the issue at all. If you are overly frustrated from losing a video game than maybe you should live on a secluded isle. There is a huge difference in losing and not being able to participate, or from a killer side there is the rediculous aspect of having 4 man SWF aggressively harass the killer all game.
The problem is that you can't even acknowledge that some of these things are overly frustrating to the average player and not always aimed at trying to win. Such as the guy that runs Bubba with the name Face Camper and he openly admits he does not play to win, he just wants to upset other players by denying the any BP or ability to play.
Your efforts in this conversation are weak and non inspiring, I'll let you get back to your homework bow.
0 -
I agree. The point was merely to say that using the argument that farming might upset some players is a fallacy of logic at best. Considering there are many other forms of playe that deny participation in the full game experience that are significantly more frustrating to many more of the player base. Would rather them just say shut up and enjoy 20 days of 50 percent bonus. Wht complain about 20 days of 50 percent bonus anyways?!

Tks for the 1,5x Blood Hunt!!! You listened our prays. S2
And nice to know why not 2x, i though it was weird, but now makes sense.
And lets go p3-50 as much killers as we can!!!
0 -
Well 1.5 will make a little bit of difference and honestly I am happy they did something. They could have just did nothing and we should be thankful they did this for us. I hope we see more players actually thanks to the extra points. =)
