My honestly Option on 2v8
I thinks its Terrible. And its that there isn't much to it. Other than the classes and other features like hook cages. What bothers me is that it feels the exact same as 1v4.
I do like the cages, its a very healthy way of dealing with Tunneling and Camping without changing the game to much. I like the cage moves when the killers finds it. If they can add a version of this system to 1v4, even if they have to change some things it can really help killers with Sabo Squads and eliminate the need for tunneling and Slugging as much. because all you do is pick them up and the entity takes them somewhere random. Plus they move when the killer finds them so they cant be camp or tunneled easily.
2v8 also feels like a bully Soup and called a gamemode its Flashlight, Flashbang every other game. I used to love 2v8 it was fun. I liked Qing with a Killer friend and creating Chaos. The Killer side needs not just more killers to play but also more Classes to choice from.
Play while you wait honestly is great, helps with the very long Q times and helps me do multiple Quests at once.
This version of 2v8 was better than it has been but still very much terrible.

People already don't use flashlight class because its just bad.
Medics save you time.
Guide gives you time by stunning the killer.
Escapist give you time by sprint on demand and free WoO - you know where to go at all time.
Scout let's you rebuild all pallets, it's huge.With the flashlight class people run around waiting for a save that might not happen. Such a waste of time - people already figured that out.

From the Survivor perspective, 2v8 is slightly more enjoyable than the regular mode, but it can become stale after a while. In 2v8 you can't stay in one place for too long. Something is always happening, and you can't always rely on your teammates to unhook others from cages, because everyone assumes someone is on the way, but actually no one is going. After healing one teammate, you might have to run to save another, then get chased or interrupted on a gen. You never really catch a break. It's fun in it's own way, but eventually you reach a point where you just want a more relaxed mode or try something you actually enjoy, or want to practice, like flashlight saves or taking chases.

I enjoy it but do find it very frustrating at times for 2 main reasons:
1. People seem much less willing to save people from cages than they do in 1v4. Multiple times I have been caged once and gone to second cage state or even died because no-one has come to make the save.
2. The amount of survivor players who just creep round the edge of the map doing very little, or even just wait at exit gates the whole game. So many times the gens have been smashed and down to needing the last 1 or 2 and then people are just too scared to go in gens and creep around doing nothing but trying to hide. Or even if they do go on a gen they run off as soon as they hear a killer terror radius. News flash - there are 2 killers, you are pretty much always going to be hearing a terror radius!0 -
Except as a survivor in 1v4 soloQ you don't even hope to escape, unless the killer lets you, and in 2v8 soloQ you escape more often than you die. It's like a completely different game for soloQ: the one that's actually not hopeless! I only play survivor in 2v8 because if this.

I wanted to remind everyone that this was my opinion and my opinion alone. I already expected downvotes.
And my opinion still stands

I'm just bored because there's no killer i want to play. spirits ok but she's a bust if I'm in an Xbox party. so that kinda leaves Dracula for me.
on survivor I absolutely adore being double teamed, but it's also a little too easy having such crazy strong easy abilities. the sprint burst feels so wrong I don't even use it.

Flashlight class without playing with friends (swf atleast duo) is very bad.
Two medics in duo swf can do way more like if its killer that takes one health state and cant instadown or hit multiple survivors they can just force bodyblock and heal instantly if they have both their powers ready, its so underated in power not to mention medic now has even more insane resets because 3 survs can heal 1.
