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

Would you prefer RE8 killers/survivors, or legacy RE killers/survivors in the upcoming chapter?

Personally, I hope they go the silent hill DBD route and give us, survivors, killers, and maps across the franchise. However, I hope none of it is from RE8. Its too recent, and would feel too much like an advertisement for the new game, when this chapter should be a celebration of what made RE...........well, RE.

    I wish the whole chapter was based on Re2 but you're probably right about doing it like silent hill

    I'd prefer earlier titles however I wouldn't mind if it was based on RE8, it's certainly a good instalment to the series.

    Legacy games. I wasn't a big fan of 8. If they did pick a killer from one of the newer games I wouldn't mind Mr. Baker.

    I want a mix of both modern and legacy characters. Someone like Jack or any villain from RE8 as the killer, and Jill/Chris/Leon/Claire as the survivor(s).

    This chapter should celebrate Resident Evil as a whole, not just the older or modern games.

    Legacy characters but, if we did get some new ones I wouldn't mind but, again, would prefer to see the OG's be implemented.

    If Legacy means classic like RE2 or 3, then yeah, i want Legacy

    I too think RE8 is too recent to be used in the new chapter, they'd bring in a higher crowd of the characters were more iconic, like Nemesis.

    I'd love to see Chris and Lady didgeridoo in the game. A new map would be appreciated as well but rather a location based on the older games than RE8.

    I'm a little biased toward newer stuff since 7 was the first RE game I've played so I'd be very happy with something newer, but it'd make more sense for something older to be what makes it in. Either way I'm just happy to have Resident Evil in the fog!

    Rather have RE:2 Leon & Claire for the survivors and Dr Birkin as the killer.

    I don't care about RE, so I would always rather have a vampire lady as opposed to anything else. But I'm expecting it to be legacy characters.

    not a fan of RE, except RE7! so I wouldn’t mind newer characters.

    I'd take classics any day.

    Not to mention we do not even know what Ethan looks like.

    Really enjoyed village but i feel the story has just got to the point of over the top and no longer feels like a resident evil game.

    Definitely classic characters, it would be a missed opportunity otherwise

    RE 8 is an amazing game and Ive loved it, but i would hate it to be the inspiration for the chapter.

    Im hoping its going to be completely based off of RE2 remake, Claire Leon and Mr X Tyrant.

    Look I love RE 8, its an amazing game and Lady Dimitrescu is a great character.

    But she is not classic, she isn't even important really she's in it for an hour and then its her boss fight, also she is literally too tall for the maps.

    RE 8 will not age as well as the other games, there will be a lot of talk about it for a while then it will fade, but the classic RE games will remain classic.

    Therefore i expect a chapter based off of RE 2 remake, Claire, Leon and Mr X. Maybe legendary skins for Jill, Chris and Nemesis.

    The devs will miss a huge opportunity if they base the chapter off of Village.

    I think they’ll probably end up going the Silent Hill route on this, where they took characters and the map from a variety of games rather than just one.

    daddy from 7 would be nice :) or those molded things.. or Eve (Eve is more than from the girl from F.E.A.R tho)? or even multiple killers?

    Killer - RE1: Tyrant

    Map - RE2/3: RPD Building

    Survivors - RE Code Veronica: Claire Redfield, Steve Burnside

    Personally, I'd like to see some old school Resident Evil. However, as long as the power isn't stupidly bad like the last 2 killers and I'm satisfied with the new perks... I really don't care which characters from Resident Evil come in.
