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

Hatch and D.S

When will the hatch change come, allowing the killers to close?
And when will the nerf arrive at D.S, thus hitting him and winning at mither. Was not it supposed to come in this big patch?

    The hatch change will be tested in the new PTB, but I believe it's not gonna happen in the next patch, so probably not before autumn.
    Same with DS, as far as I'm concerned.

    A dev would be better to confirm, but in any case : it's not anytime soon. More than 6 weeks for sure.

    Yeah this makes sense since they are still testing hatch and also said that DS still needs to be looked at and isn't coming in the next ptb.

    As of right now, there is no solid idea how the Hatch will change because they tested a few ideas and weren't convinced by any of them.

    As far as DS, they're fairly sure it's going to be changed into a 2/2.5/3 second stun for the killer that will not drop the survivor but will allow them to continue to wiggle and give time for teammates to come for a flashlight or pallet save.

    I personally think that apart from the stun, DS should increase the wiggle meter progression slightly as well after a successful stun. Kind of like a reversed iron grasp.
