The second iteration of 2v8 is now LIVE - find out more information here: https://forums.bhvr.com/dead-by-daylight/kb/articles/480-2v8-developer-update

Does anybody actually think this is good?

Simultaneously making exit gates open faster & nerfing Remember Me? It wasn’t even that great of a perk, when has anybody seen anyone complain about it? It’s really Freddy’s only worthwhile perk and even then it was meh, I don’t understand the logic in such a heavy nerf if you were also going to speed up the base gate time? 3 minutes is more then enough time without those two changes, who’s gonna sit around that long? Add to this the Pig’s huge nerfs that nobody asked for.... this is a very bad patch overall & has me very worried for the health of this game. Inb4 ‘StOp CrYiNg KiLlEr MaIn’ I play both sides equally.

    You knew BHVR was gonna do this. I mean, endgame collapse could maybe in some tiny percentage of games make survivors actually be under pressure, so it had to be rendered pointless by survivor buffs. Same reason pig got her endgame destroyed, same reason Legion has no ability to use their power in a chase.


    Stop being surprised at things you knew were gonna happen. Just play EZ mode survivor and get everything you want, on demand.

    I don't think I agree on the faster gate opening either. I can see where they're coming from if 1 survivor is left(and killer has closed the hatch), to have a slightly higher chance of opening the gate before the killer comes. If you're not the obsession and the killer has Remember me you're not getting that gate open. However, that's still buffing the gate time overall when all survivors are still left, which imo is just strange and completely unnecessary.

    I don't think 3 minutes is too much on the timer though. There's pretty often a survivor that's being chased when the gates are being opened and often goes down too. 3 minutes is the perfect amount of time. Not too long when you don't want to be bothered anymore as a killer but enough time to save and get out for survivors. The times does slow down when they're dying or hooked, sure, but that's fair cause then the game is not completely over yet. Otherwise you could just slug so everyone dies due to timer or blood warden. I've played several games on the PTB and those 3 minutes doesn't feel that much in game tbh.

    I had a feeling something like this would happen as soon as EGC was released pretty sure EGC is just a setup to nerf killers like pig and endgame perks.
