You want us to pay 50 000 bps to prestige? Seriously?

We are being forced to buy for 50 000 bps a reward which I should already have earned going through the bloodwebs? It seems like a cruel joke to me, like BHVR is trying to squeeze so much of my blood out of me for no tangiable reward. I dont like it and I do not understand why at all.

What, you don't like paying multiple matches' worth of BP to reset your Bloodweb back to crappy level 1 webs just so you can wade through 25 levels of garbage before you start getting something other than brown BP offerings again?
(Yeah, the devs did a couple good things and a dozen bad when redesigning the Bloodweb/prestige system. This sucks.)
You just don't get it. It's all a big brain move in order to minimize the grind.
You know that strategy "fight fire with fire"? Well it's the same but "fight grind with even more grind".
This doesn't make sense to me. Reducing the grind to only chip into that by making a 50K bp fee to prestige. Thats about a whole bloodweb worth of bp wasted. A full one too, not one of the small ones at the pre-level 10, or the medium-sized ones.
Why do we need 3 tiers of perks at this point? Either make the full bloodwebs smaller, get rid of at least one perk tier, AND do away with paying to prestige and then I'll see a reduced grind that benefits everyone. Its half a million bp in prestiging fees alone if you want to get a character to P10.
"like BHVR is trying to squeeze so much of my blood out of me"
That's why the new Prestige Icon looks like a nasty TICK now.
oh god no
I don't know why this was implemented either.
Just dropping here that if you reach prestige 100 with a character, it means you spent 5,000,000 bloodpoints on PRESTIGE NODES ONLY.
5 MILLION BLOODPOINTS for absolutely nothing, 0, taxed by BHVR because you like a character.
Dumb and ridiculous, this ######### system looks rushed and not well thought. I can understand that you'd pay something (something, like 10k) to prestige up until prestige 9 since you'll unlock some kind of reward, but after that? What's the point?
And what happens at prestige 100? Does the game keep generating level 50 bloodwebs or are you stuck there unable to level up you character to get more items and addons?
And the ######### prestige crest is awful, use roman numerals at least, arabic numerals look silly and stupid in an icon
Roman Numerals can be quite space demanding to say the least.
Like 88: LXXXVIII
That is a bit too much.
Eh, depends where you show it, of course, on the icon that they designed now it could be too long, but it wouldn't be hard to put it somewhere else
This does not make any sense to pay 50k for reaching next level. I do not even see any reason to pay anything at all for that. Also what really pisses me off is those small bloodwebs at the start of each prestige. I can see those smalll few nodes bloodwebs up to prestige 3. But anymore after that when I am only buying addons and items. Why do I have to always go thorugh small ######### bloodweb I cannot buy what I want but gotta buy everything.
You get less BPS per game.
You gotta pay BPs to prestige (mandatory).
You get fewer rare add-ons because of the small webs from early levels.
AND they seem to have completely deleted the bonus rarity from prestiging.
But grinding is faster now apparently 🙃
I dont even want to prestige in first place if this is forced i might not even play i just dont have time for that 🙃 i can just say this is complete garbage of update...
Yeah, I don't like this either. It's reduced the grind in some ways, but it's made it harder and more annoying to maintain the characters you actually like. It also just feels wrong to have to pay a bunch of points for something mandatory that you might not even care to do.
Not only that, but we're being forced to waste 50k BP for the "privilege" of going back to useless early-grind bloodwebs with nothing but trash addons for about 20 levels. Okay, some killers have good brown addons but there's a fair few that have nothing but dreck.
Reach the level 50 of bloodweb is already expensive. Why puting a tax or charge for having new bloodweb ? I disapprove it.
C'mon guys, the Prestige tax is necessary to maintain a healthy Bloodpoint economy! /s
Thank you, you make me laughting !
I allow myself to depict your joke.
Bloodpoint Tax is a great name for it.
That seems an unfair comparison. Like them or not taxes at least serve an actual function.
I recently got a bunch of killers and leveled them up over the event. in most of the killer inventories there are lots of purple and green addons that I only have like 3 or 4 of after hitting 45. That lack of good addons seems like a problem for most killers, especially with the bbq bp removal.
Is there going to be a change to the rarity of addons in earlier blood webs? Will killers like Ghostface who's best addons are brown rarity lose out on their best addons from blood web rarity changes? I haven't heard much about the addon side of this change from the ptb, and I couldn't play it myself to find out.
First I've seen of this and 🤮
No Tax without representation!
The 50k is there to remind you are a slave to the Entity
Does the new function need to pay it with bloodpoints to work ? or be tasted at its fair value ?
50 levels of bloodwebs = 1 prestige = about 1 600 000 bloodpoints.
100 levels of prestige.
100 * 1 600 000 = 1 600 000 000 bloodpoints to prestige at max level only one character.
31 survs + 28 killers = 59 characters (with Nancy, Steve and demogorgon)
59 * 1 600 000 000 = 94 400 000 000 bloodpoints for prestiging everyone. And more with the new characters whose are coming.
What's really neccesary to add 50k between every prestiges ?
And don't forget they nerfed bbq and wglf.
Yeah, because they added the incentive to play the role that fewer people are playing
If I'm playing killer, it's because I want to play killer, why should I be forced to play a role I don't want to play?
And if I'm in a SWF, no way I'm going to play killer alone because of the incentive, ######### is this reasoning?
Plus, we don't know what the incentives will even be like. We know it's not necessarily going to be 100% all the time. Just how imbalanced does the queue have to be for the incentive to be a 100% BP bonus? Will that be the norm, or will the incentive usually be more like 25%, a number that in no way makes up for the loss of WGLF/BBQ stacks.
Well I hope it's going to be at least 75% all the time.
Honestly, a 25% increase is worthless, is BHVR really expecting someone to change role for a MAXIMUM of 8k bonus bloodpoints? Cmon..
A 50% could be something, but I can use a cake or pudding and get 100% more whenever I want..
And then, think about this
You're playing killer. You're averaging 25k per match.
There's a bloodpoint incentive to play survivor so you switch role and now you average 20k per match (provided that you're good).
Add 25% for the bonus: 25k average.
Why did you switch role in the first place?
I can use a cake or pudding and get 100% more whenever I want
I hope the devs tweak the Bloodwebs a bit. I was prestiging during the event, and the number of Cakes/Puddings I got were abysmally low. Sometimes I got zero in 49 Bloodwebs. Not having endless level 50 Bloodwebs anymore is going to suck, levels 1-49 are garbage-tier.
