Survivor Splitscreen?

I think the only issue is that it could be seen as an advantage on your side and not the killers, you'll be more coordinated and that could be unfair for the killer.

Problem is the game itself will NEVER be able to handle such a load. It’d need to load AND SYNC everything TWICE.

True, It would also be a bit messy with audio warnings, like if you can hear the killer heartbeat but neither of you can see the killer then it could cause some accidently sprint burst usage or pallet flops.

It’s a modern-day phenomenon. Back then, splitscreen for video games was a common way for friends to hang out together. Now-a-days, with our increased knowledge and understanding of computers and better hardware; Splitscreen is still very simple and easy to put into games.
...Wait... what?

The main issue would be : the sound and the performance issues.
Splitscreen is actually making performances even worse, that's the reason it has mostly been dropped on modern gaming.3 -

It would be cool, but the audio would be bananas. Trying to tell who the killer is close to or who's close to that injured survivor would be painful.
Also performance issues. You'd basically have to render everything twice.
And to a much lesser extent, some perks would sorta' be way more powerful with that. Like one person could run empathy and both survivors could see just by peeking at the other's screen.

Have your friend bring their tv and console, set them up side by side ,and wear a headsets. There I fixed it for you. Swf meets same room.

If you think lag is an issue now... This would be a nightmare. Great idea but you'd need dedicated servers AND the ability to render active active on all players screens... Given that this is a game and not a tech company I highly doubt they could or would even pull it off. Innovation costs lots of money...
