Increasing the time to complete the Rift pass is so lame

They reduced the rift fragments from 2v8 event down from 75 to 50. They didn't add rift fragments on previous, different events and gamemodes, only bloodpoints. They also feel the need to make the grind longer than necessary.

I don't know why you're trying to artificially increase the time to finish a rift (battle pass) but it's extremely predatory.

First of all, why is the rift not permanently available? Why is there a time limit? People actually paid money for the rift. Yes, it is once and only purchase, but the fact of the matter is "If you got no time or something happened in real life that is out of your control? Too bad, too sad! LOL" and you decided to make it worse by decreasing the amount of fragments that we can get.

  • Thats one reason I tend to wait on spending money on the rift. I get it tiered up, then when im at the end.. I "buy" it and immediately get rewarded the cells back. If something comes up and I end up not finishing the rift, then im not out anything.

    This right here is the smartest thing you can do. It's sad that we have to do is in the first place.

    Its not THAT bad, although my impatient half is kicking in since im right at the end now. I dont play every day, so im like 8 tiers from deep rift. Little devil on my shoulder is whispering "just hit the button... you KNOW your gonna make it in time".

  • This Rift was slightly shorter than normal I think, like ~75 days. If they see that fewer people than usual have completed the pass, I am sure they will add a boost or something towards the end. The "Jump Start" quests do help at the start to get a few of the items quicker.

    I just reached level 100 but it would have been much earlier normally, I stopped playing because of the Judgment.

    Just got to the point where I could hit the buy button guilt free, lol. Considering I DONT play nearly everyday… Im pretty sure if you are at least semi regular, getting to this point before the cutoff date shouldnt be too hard. Often times I only play like 2 or 3 matches a night when I DO hop on.

    I'm literally exactly where you are lol I really dont play all that often anymore either. I think if doing both killer and survivor quests, you can get a good chunk of the tiers complete by the time the Rift ends. The rest can be made up by just the occasional daily quests and special modes. Having said all that, I don't feel like it was necessary for the devs to make the progression harder. I feel like it was in a good place before. Curious as to why they're messing with it.

  • I have completed the rift and am on 97 in the deep rift but I have played at least a couple matches most days

    I play like once or twice a week and already almost finished the rift. Some weeks I don't play at all and still I have had no hard time to finish the rifts. This is one of those things that just feels like people exaggerate just to try to make their point more important when in reality it just makes it less important as it waters down the point they are trying to make when they do that.

  • This rift has been particularly stingy with rift fragments. I think this 2v8 is the only event we got this rift that gives rift fragments. IIRC last month's even gave us any. BHVR might have considered giving us no frags for 2v8 so perhaps we are "lucky" that they reduced them from 75 to 50 and not to 0. Next rift hopefully we get frags from Haunted by Daylight.

    This is my approach as well. Usually we have to get to level 69 but this rift it's only 67. Gratz on getting yours there.

    I am not even sure if I'll get there this rift. I wouldn't even worry about it if I didn't actually like some of the black and gold cosmetics like Mikaela's dress and Kate's top. It would be the first rift ever that I haven't got to level 70 on. I am currently in the 40s.

  • Currently i just do the dailies and whatever quests come out. That seems to be enough to finnish the rift about a month in advance.
