He has more blood points in Dead by Daylight than all other players. But he is surely not happy about it.
Blood points in Dead by Daylight are something special. You can buy many relevant things with them: items like med-kits, perks for all characters, or addons to improve individual killers. However, blood points can also be a huge burden, as shown by a player in the Dead by Daylight subreddit. The friend of the user Glamarchy encountered a bug – and now has 200,000,000 blood points.
What is this bug? A bug that has existed since the very early days of Dead by Daylight. In rare cases, it can happen that the entire game progress of Dead by Daylight is deleted. All earned progress is reset. The player then loses all blood points, items, perks, and unlocks.
The annoying thing is that this affects not only the local data but also the save file on the DbD servers. There seems to be a synchronization error causing this.
So why are there so many blood points? If someone is affected by the bug, they can write a ticket to the developers, must provide their profile, and have a bit of patience. After a review, they will receive blood points credited based on their previous achievements and playtime in Dead by Daylight. Since Glamarchy’s friend had more than 2,800 hours of gameplay, there was a substantial compensation of an impressive 200,000,000 blood points.
What is the problem with that? If you now think that it must be great to have so many points, you are mistaken. Because as soon as you have more than 1,000,000 blood points, you can’t earn any more until you fall below the 1,000,000 threshold again.
Only “bonus blood points,” such as through login rewards or such compensations, are excluded.
This means: The player now has to spend quite a while clicking through the blood webs on all of their characters to unlock perks, addons, items, and offerings again. A process that will likely take many evenings.
More than 37 hours to spend the blood points
You can make a rough calculation: On average, an item in the blood web costs 4,500 points and unlocking and dismissing the message takes about 3 seconds per item, considering the various animations in the blood web.
If you calculate this for the value of 200,000,000 blood points, the player can buy more than 44,000 items – and will need more than 37 hours for that!
Just imagine how many of your evenings you would have to sacrifice to stare at blood webs for a total of 37 hours, just to finally be able to earn blood points again.
So: On one hand, you can be envious that someone has a whopping 200,000,000 blood points at their disposal, but on the other hand, you should be glad that you don’t have to spend them.
