2v8 Bonus Bloodpoints sucks (100%)

Most of the day it's been switching between 200% and 300% extra bloodpoints, but right now it's down to only 100%? I thought maybe it'd mean killer queues would be less miserable, but I still had to wait 15 minutes to get into a lobby.

Why even play survivor then, when extra bloodpoints was the best reason to play 2v8 survivor. Might as well go back to 1v4 and use some cakes then.

Why can't it just be a solid 500%? Didn't you do some testing during the RE 2v8 to see that more bloodpoints = more survivors? So why does it have to by dynamic instead of static?

    I liked the resident evil 2v8 more, devs gave you as survivor 400% bp bonus plus they gave everyone double exp which means more shards.

    Yeah, that's why I am surprised after those 3 different tests they did during the RE 2v8, that they for some reason, just threw all of that out of the window and made the Bonus dynamic again

    The draw of 2v8 isn’t supposed to be bonus BP, it’s the game mode itself. If people are only playing 2v8 for points, the devs need to know that so that they can iterate on it better in the future.

    My 2v8 matches net me on average about 200k, with minimum being like 150k. I'm already back up to like 3.4 or 3.5 mil and I got tired of spending it to just spend it. So yea, def a different experience here, lol. They really need to add a 1-50 1-click option for the bloodweb. So tedious & clunky. But yea, I definitely liked the previous 2v8s more as well.

    bring back the 400% for surv with the 3x xp multiplier🙏🏾. I think every 2v8 should have a permanent 400% for surv with it going up to 500 and 600% based on queues to at least try to put a dent in the surv queue times to balance it out. Hopefully the summer 2v8 with the promised “play while you wait” somewhat alleviates the problem with killer queue times.

    Maybe there are actually enough people playing Survivor in the mode, they don't need the incentive? Or maybe people just are going back to 1v4 because they got the unlockables.

    It's not good. As soon as the unlocks were done, I was back to 1v4, but I was one of vocal ones saying that 2v8 really doesn't offer me anything in general to make me want to play it more than the regular mode.
