Hypothetical 2 v 8

I wanted to know what other people thought about the 2 killers vs eight survivors scenario. It's been a mode that people have wanted such a game mode and I wanted to know how exactly that would play out or what you would do to make it fair without changing the entirety of the game.
This is also assuming there can't be two of the same killer but then again there can 4 of the same survivor so what do I know?
If 8 feels like too many then feel free to change to something like 5 or 6, either way just have fun with the idea

I believe a 2v6 would be better. Also add a couple more gens since there would be 2 extra survivors

I can't picture any other game modes besides a normal match for this game. Anything else just wouldn't make sense.

This is an old dream. I’m of the opinion that the combo Plague/Spirit is why this will never happen. Like how do you balance certain combinations?
Its a nice thought 💭

An inversed 2 vs 8 would be pretty crazy. As in the killers primary goal would be to complete an objective like breaking a number of gens within a certain time curtain while the survivors interfere with them. No hooks, no kills except special interactions or trigger based, slugged survivors can get back up themselves, just slowly.
It would be a "fun game mode" with plenty resources for the survivors to interfere with the killers and the killers can take downing the survivors as secondary.

And the answer is you don't, broken combination is exactly what makes these things fun.

Double-facecamping with Bubba would be the only thing I would do in this gamemode.
@Topic:
2vX will never work. The thing is, who do you expect to play this gamemode? In regular games, Solo is already a pain, and you have to worry about 3 teammates. Should you have to worry about 5 or even 7 teammates when playing Solo?
The only people who would play it on the Survivor SIde would be SWFs, and probably nothing smaller than 3man, maybe even full 6/8-Stacks. And we all know how Killers love to go against SWFs and to blame their losses on them.
Obviously Killers who want to play with friends would play this gamemode. However, you would have to balance a lot to make it work. As already mentioned, a combination of Spirit and Plague would be a problem. Something like Nurse and Bubba would be a problem as well, if you have a good Nurse-player, the Bubba can have 0 hours in the game, they just need to camp, while the Nurse gets the Downs.
And last but not least, the reason why Nemesis only has 2 Zombies is because more would cause technical issues. I dont think that having 8 players or even 10 players on the Map (+potential Zombies if Nemesis is used) will really work out.
