The second iteration of 2v8 is now LIVE - find out more information here: https://forums.bhvr.com/dead-by-daylight/kb/articles/480-2v8-developer-update

most matches are 3v1s

if its not a grown a$s adult going down in 2 seconds, then throwing a tantrum and suiciding on hook, its a tunneling at 5 gens killer doing it because the game is sooooooo hard for them not to and then that player disconnects . Just a rant, I know the developers cant do anything to fix our teammates that don't want to play for things not going their way

    The easiest and most skilless strategy for killer is also the strongest. If you play that way as killer you can beat a team of players who may be on average better than you.

    However, if you play 'fair' and spread hooks which is a far more skilled way to play, you are only putting yourself at a disadvantage, and it allows survivors who may be on average less skilled than you to escape even if perhaps they shouldn't have been able to.

    It is a serious design flaw in the game, one that the devs either don’t know how to fix, or don't even realize it is an issue.

    Sometimes it’s completely necessary to tunnel. Personally, I will start off every game spreading hooks. It’s pretty easy to tell early on if it’s a coordinated team that’s playing well. If nobody is on death hook by 3 gens left, or dead by 2 then I gotta get somebody out. 4 good survivors at 2 gens left is borderline unstoppable.

    On the flip side I made rank last night so I can play more lax, and don’t care too much about doing well or winning the game. But I do understand why killers tunnel. Hard tunnel at 5 gens is definitely scummy though. We can agree on that.

    You need to hope that the one being tunneled can hold their own long enough for at least 3 gens to be completed

    devs don't really respond to anything on this platform.

    Theres no regular QnA, nothing to really show transparency between those who make the game and those who play it.
