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

I think they should have gone for a simpler 2v4 gamemode rather than a 2v8

Which is basically the same as the base gamemode with obviously 2 killers, whom both have debuffs rather than buffs.

I believe only thing this game needs is a way to play with a killer friend and nothing much more. I think no-ones gonna need space for 7 other friends as survivor. Its just gonna be really chaotic at that point. I also think the current 2v8 just makes chases too quick and finding survs braindead easy, its not even dbd anymore.

Having 2 killers still adds value to unique surv gameplay.

Dont care about the surv gameplay, im only looking at this as a possibility to play killer with friends.

    Might be easier to balance and queue times shouldn't be that wild.

    idk, people have been asking for 2v8, it be kinda rude to ignore something so many wishes for to make something smaller and less.

    nah man. I can 4k easy even with no perks or addons. That would be miserable for survivor

    I think you all missed the point, the main fun point of this gamemode is the ability to play with a killer, and i cant think how a 2v8fest is any more fun for survs than a 1v4. With 4 survs you can still cordinate competitively, having 2 killers chase 2 survs at a time gives more high moments to survs. Fixing gens is not fun, chases are. So what more are survivors really meant to do in a 2v8 environment that they could already do in 1v4´s? Mathematically I see this as just meme value rather than something thats actually going to stay for the long run.

    Coming back to this 1 last time.

    You could literally make a killer with this idea in mind, where said killer´s main power is just exceptionally nerfed co-op, where both playable sides of the killer has its own addons and perks split in half and individual progression for both players.

    Im sure most people would love this idea.
