95% of the time this forum is just complaining about something, so it doesn't surprise me they are ignoring it. Cakes are just the flavor dujour.
Survivors can earn 18+ cakes per prestige (perhaps that's increased since I last tested it) and killers make 26+ per prestige, tested yesterday. That is still a lot of cakes. That means for a match that earns a player 200k bloodpoints, a common occurrence during the anniversary event, a survivor earns about 3-4 cakes per match played and killers earn about 5 cakes per match. Yes, in previous iterations we could earn 10 cakes per match and judging from my own cake arsenal that I will never get through I can see why BHVR might have wanted to pare that back a bit.
There are still at least 18 days left in the event so you can still stack hundreds of cakes on your favorite characters. -
It just seems like the community has no concept of fun. There is a visible minority of the DbD community that's here, on other forums, on reddit, on X, in Youtube comments and elsewhere who like to moan about everything they think is wrong with DbD. Then there are a massive number of players who don't interact much if at all with the community aside from just playing the game and/or watching some of their favorite content creators who foster more positive communities.

My tip for the Black Banquet is to burn a Toothy Torte, other anniversary cake or a Bloody Party Streamer every game. This helps everyone get more cakes to keep the cycle going. Using cakes makes more cakes.
If you don't have any of those use Escape! Cakes, Survivor Puddings or other blood point offerings so you can buy and use Tortes. Don't waste your offering slot on non-bloodpoint offerings like maps or luck.The cake earnings might not be as amazing as previous years but matches are still cake positive. Even if you are the newest survivor having the roughest of matches you are going to be earning 5x what you usually earn so make the most of it. You will earn back the cakes you spend and more on top of that, so please do us all and especially yourself a favor and burn a cake every match of DbD you play during the Black Banquet.
Also you may want to avoid bulk-spending your bloodpoints if you want to get all the cakes that spawn in your bloodwebs. I just tested this after that big red notice at the top of the page went up and it still misses cakes, so beware. -
The Pig should have the power of flight. The "when pigs fly" memes would be amazing.

I play killer in the event queue because of fast queue times. I have been playing some SoloQ matches in the event, and the amount of times I have been hard tunneled out or slugged while a greedy killer has to get their 4K has been egregious. At least if I play killer I am guaranteed to get decent value out of my cakes and I know I am in a match where the killers isn't a complete cretin. I never slug for the 4K and let the last survivor have the hatch more often than not.
I have been playing Legion because I always make great points with them and I can vault the invincible pallets and they can chew through the free heals the Banquet Payoffs give. Getting frenzy stabs on invisible survivors is incredibly satisfying.
I don't think the event is as survivor-sided as everyone else does because you can get some really broken generator spawns and survivors often waste a lot of time messing with the event stuff rather than getting gens done. But I'm not really thinking about it that much. It's more about getting 18 cakes for every ~3-4 games I play which makes the game so much more bearable. -
This is the pattern for guaranteed cake spawns:
3, 5, 7, 10, 12, 15, 20, 25, 28, 30, 33, 35, 38, 40, 42, 45, 47, 50
