Help Improve The Experience For New Players

I've recently convinced a few of my mates to start playing this game since cross play was added. This is just my idea for helping them to learn the game quicker and make it a bit easier for them.

  1. Free Perk Unlock Token - New players should be given an unlock token to start the game. This token allows you to unlock any perk for free. Every 25 levels a new token should be unlocked. This continues all the way till Devotion 1. This will give new players an incentive to play this game to get perks they like unlocked early.
  2. Add A Free Anti-Camping perk and Gen Slowdown Perk To The Free Perk List - It shouldn't be really strong but a good helping perk for a new player. It shouldn't be something they'd want to keep at high ranks but one that will help a lot when you have nothing else.
  3. Show Killers Teachable Perks During Loading Screen - When facing a killer for the first time it will tell you what each of their unique perks do. Maybe even explain how to notice these perks in game.
  4. Show Survivors Teachable Perks - Killers should be able to check each survivors 3 unique perks before the game starts. Similar to the survivor suggestion it will help them learn perks that they might be facing soon.
  5. Perk Tiers Should Be Removed - The grind is already a long one, especially for a new player. Telling a new player the difference between seeing a green ruin or purple is just pointless. This will also help a new player learn the perks since theirs less to learn.
  6. Add More Free Perks - This is a slight extension of points 2 and 5. There are currently 14 free survivor perks and 12 free killer perks. I'd increase this to 15 on both sides. The game currently doesn't have enough free perks to allow you to unlock 1 perk every level to 50. This means if you have 15 free perks your going to have every perk for your first character unlocked at character level 15. To compensate for this I'd suggest not offering perks in the bloodweb till level 11.

These are the 6 suggestions I think that should be done to help improve the new player experience. Didn't realise till I started looking that we had such few free perks in the game. So apologies if 6 isn't the most polished suggestion.

Please tell me if anyone thinks of anymore.

    Want to add something more to this.

    7. Free trial of each killer once. This will help users play a killer and might make them want to buy that killer.

    8. KYF should be playable by yourself. Fix any bugs where a KYF player can get put into public lobbies then do this. It will help them practice using certain perks. Maybe also have a bot option.
