Dead by Daylight Devs Address Nerfed Bloodpoints Accusations

by

Following some recent reports about players of the game Dead by Daylight receiving fewer bloodpoints than typical, a developer has stepped forward to address this issue. During special anniversary events like the Twisted Masquerade, players can earn a unique anniversary cake that grants extra bloodpoints during a match. Historically, this cake would appear randomly 2-3 times per game, but fans have observed that it’s appearing much less frequently than before, after a recent update to Dead by Daylight.

Despite some players feeling annoyed about the new formula, it seems that Dead by Daylight is still setting player records, suggesting that it may not deter everyone. A significant part of its success can also be attributed to its numerous collaborations with other franchises like Stranger Things, Silent Hill, Alien, and Five Nights at Freddy’s. It’s quite common for fans to enjoy one aspect of the game while expressing dissatisfaction about another part all at once.

As a dedicated Dead by Daylight fan, I was thrilled when the 9.0.2 Bugfix Patch dropped. However, a developer on Reddit later confirmed that the number of anniversary cakes we were receiving was actually intentional – a fundamental change in how these celebratory treats work. This news wasn’t met with much joy from the community as many had been hoping for a resolution to what they initially thought was a bug. It seems that this new approach to anniversary cakes is here to stay, and let’s be honest, it’s not the first time the developers of Dead by Daylight have tweaked their formula – whether through gameplay mechanics or perk acquisition methods.

Dead by Daylight Developer Confirms “Cakes Are Appearing as Intended”

As a dedicated fan of “Dead by Daylight,” I must admit that the sudden announcement of this shift took me off guard. Regrettably, it seems this major alteration wasn’t even hinted at during the developers’ recent discussion about the game’s future. While the online community on Reddit has been quite vocal about this decision, a common theme among their responses is concern over how this change could potentially make the grind for bloodpoints more challenging and stressful.

It appears that Behaviour Interactive is content with maintaining a challenging system for earning bloodpoints in the game Dead by Daylight, and they don’t seem troubled by this decision, despite the negative reactions from many players. Whether or not this change was intentional, it can be said that the developers could have communicated this change more tactfully to their player base. It remains to be seen if this decision will spark a significant uproar among fans.
