2v8 should really have less survivors

I think you could experiment with having less survivors like anywhere between 4-6 survivors and having some potential buffs like less gens, more hookstates, or faster actions.

    There just isnt a very viable option for this. If you drop to 4 survivors. The amount of buffs you would have to do is insane. Simply because of the sheer amount of pressure you could do as 2 killers. Each find 1 survivor and down them now the other 2 are in an almost unwinnable situation. Or tunnel one out easy. Hook states do nothing to fix this problem so they arnt good nor is dropping gen counts down. Even with 6 player you still have these problems. If the fantasy is the killer being powerful. you are then removing that fantasy because you have to buff the survivors by a large amount to compensate the 2 killers.

    I mean arguably they already removed that fantasy judging by how well Survs could outright STOMP on Killers in this mode if they even remotely tried.
