2v8 feels very survivor sided... But I don't really mind it?
This is a weird one for me.
I'm mainly going to focus on 2v8 balance, and my views don't reflect the base 1v4, but I feel like survivors just have a LOT going for them. Between the increase in pallets, strong abilities, good gen spread to avoid any lockdowns (as far as I'm aware of at this moment) and the introduction of the torchbearer, they have a LOT to get escapes.
That said, I don't mind playing killer despite it all. For me, 2v8 is shining in the interactions rather than the outcome. Ganging on survs, synergy with abilities, how certain killers compliment each other… It's been really fun even if we don't get kills. My only real complaint is maybe killer needs a new ability as well for variety, but all in all, this is probably the most fun I've had losing matches in a long time because of those little moments, where as in 1v4 there's not as much fun moments unless the survivor/killer has character to them.
