2v8 is insanely and absurdly overpowered for the survivors
In the first 2v8, this was already a survivor sided mode, but it was a fun mode, and its first instance, balance was difficult to find and it was fine.
In the second instance, survivors have weirdly been buffed to the point it was an heavy survivor sided mode and it was already very forgiving for survivors, however, not so much for killers.
Now, with the absurdly overpowered survivors perks, and the very bleh killer perks, along with the flowers giving INSANE bonuses to survivors while killers get pretty much nothing aside from denying survivors the flower they take, this is very difficult to have fun.
Waiting times as killers exist because of this in the first place. Giving bloodpoints doesn't really fix the main problem, killers shouldn't be paid to play killer, the mode should be more balanced.
Survivors can instantly heal. What… Increased healing speed was fine, instant healing?
Survivors can restore broken pallets. I mean, I wouldn't have such a big problem with that if it was one per trial. But with a cooldown this is ridiculous.
Survivors can bring items, but killers can't bring add-ons… Yes they have a baseline add-on-like perk, but it takes a perk slot. And for some killers it is insanely underwhelming.
Survivors have a baseline unbreakable…
And last but certainly not least, survivors repair gens twice as fast. Why???? Why isn't it just the regular repair speed? I could somewhat understand slightly faster gens to make the game last not as long but then killers should run slightly faster.
Please bring some balance to this mode, otherwise at some point no matter how much bloodpoint you get, no one will want to play killer anymore.

This mode is not about winning or losing. and about items: addons are already built into the ability of each killer, they do not need to open chests like survs. don't you read the description?

No, 2v8 is easily the best mode for casual players and I hope they make it permanent at some point

ah yes, casual players love 20mins queue times...

Yeah, it is…
It's great for farming challenges.

It does feel a little survivor sided, but honestly that's fine. It's still fun for killer getting to play with a killer teammate and if it were more balanced it would likely make the killer queue times even worse than they already are since there are already too many killers in the queue compared to the survivors needed. There needs to be a reason for survivors to actually play the game mode as nothing on the survivor side of 2v8 can really match the appeal of getting to play killer with a teammate, that just is what it is. 2v8 as a whole is inherently more chaotic than the regular game and I don't feel like it's really meant to be taken seriously, it was never going to be extremely balanced in the way the regular game is.

IF you have survivors that do gens otherwise its very killer sided. I had one game one-two people did gens thats it.

This game is 100% survivor sided. Even if I use Nurse and all my chases last around 10 seconds or less and then I also have a Spirit or Wesker on my team doing well and pressuring gens yet we can collectively only kill 3 or less because the team prioritized gens instead of healing up or whatever else bad teams do. So decent teams, they coordinate onto a gen as soon as you go chase someone and rinse and repeat and all that stuff. No matter what killer I’ve used… all of them actually. it is almost absolutely impossible to really get a win until you loose enough to lower mmr to finally get a squad that just isn’t doing gens like they should It is insane. Killer has almost no control and it’s all in the survivors hands. It become more and more infuriating to where there is almost no point into playing this game mode is killer and is no longer fun. I can’t imagine getting kill after kill non stop for an entire match while pressuring gens and still loosing that badly. We get punished for that too. The more we kill the faster the gens go which is stupid because what happens when everyone is working on a gen at the same time with the speed bonus. They all just magically pop. Killing punishes survivors to where 8 players now can do 8 gens at increased speeds and if they get the nerf to gen speed they can just double up to where it doesn’t matter.
I even find survivor boring because it’s so easy to win with an average team that just knows if you focus on gens the killer can’t do nothing about it. This game mode was fun at first but after putting time into it. It’s clear it’s not balanced at all. Even if you tunnel and get 1 or 2 out the game it makes no difference.
I’ve had some of the most insane games of my life with how well the killer and I played but all of a sudden we get gen rushed and it doesn’t matter.
Yes I’ve gotten 8ks but it’s not because we did good or bad… all because survivors either did gens efficiently. How can 2 killers have the most effective game of their life with survivors being hooked every 10 to 15 seconds by one or the other and at the same time and still get steamed rolled. Anyways I’m done it’s just not literally not fair.If you disagree literally pick your best or the best killer and just play for a few hours… you’ll see.
Then join a survivor match don’t even help and crouch the whole time. You have a better change of winning as a team as survivor not even contributing.

The dynamic gen speed I think is the main reason it’s unfair for killers. If we as killers are killing very efficiently the gen speed increases. We can only chase 2 at a time and if 2 are hooked they spawn right next to other gens and survivors So that really doesn’t help much at all. For the most part if we are in chase with 2 survivors and have been killing well and they can also pretty much instantly heal.
That means if they have their speed bonus 4 to 6 survivors will be on gens at the same time or the same win if they actually are playing efficiently. And all have the speed boost. Leaving half of the gens or more all getting to have the boost and let’s say they pop 1 or 2 yet we are constantly killing they pretty much have a speed boost the whole game

Most the time I’d say is survivor sided. It does depend on the map and sometimes you and your teammate and can just do crazy but majority of matches don’t go that way.

Instant heals. Being able to replace God pallets infinitely especially when coordinated multiple scouts are there. Everyone shares these works too when grouped up. So every survivor gets to use every perk passively or directly.
