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

Any reason to play chaos shuffle?

Other than a personal challenge or mix things up, but talking about bloodpoints, iri shards/Rift fragments, am i missing something or there is no real incentive to play it?

    Alright then, that makes sense since queue is faster in normal mode 😅

    Some people like it. I personally have no interest in it and would much rather play 2v8 which has been by far the best modifier so far IMO.

    It's the best, most consistent mode they've done for me, with 2v8 a decent second. Since I always randomize everything in every trial in normal mode, it's nice to have everyone on the same footing.

    It's a lot of fun, a most trials are more relaxed. There are posts claiming Killers tunnel and camp harder, and I don't doubt this happens somewhere, but I have only experience one proper tunnel in well over a dozen games of this mode (and even that happened once in the trial), so it may be a case of the minority shouting loudest.

    Anyway, it's about as balanced as the game can get, in terms of mixing up builds. Sometimes you will get an amazing combo, sometimes you'll discover perks which really help you that you never thought of otherwise, and sometimes you'll get a great combo, such as Self-Care and No Mither (s).

    Whichever, it's a great mode that was hugely popular when it first came out, and even with some more negative comments this time around, it still draws out positive responses in equal (or more) measure. Basically: Get in there and find out for yourself!

    It is very fun to play. Try to make use of your random perks or when otherwise weak perks give you good value is really fun. Today, I had shattered hope and in this match a David had a Shadow Step boon and I lost him but after destrying the totem, I've found him. That was funny that this otherwise useless perk gave me a good value in this random moment. Yesterday, I had Alien Instinct while one of the survivors had No Mither which was really nasty but also a funny accident. It is also funny on the survivor side: Today I was carring a Sable and I've walked through a pallet and she had Power Struggle which was so funny even on my side because what are the chances of that happening? On the other hand, it is also a good challenge when you have rather weak perks but still perform good due to your skills and experiences. It feels much fairer when both sides have random perks instead of you having random perks while the otherside has the four strongest perks in the game.

    Overall, I really love this mode because it is funny, challenging, and brings a breath of fresh air into the game by not seeing every match the same boring perks. However, I can understand when other players don't like this modifier. I had the same with Lights Out: I didn't enjoy it while other players had a lot of fun with it.

    If you like the adventure of random builds and a break from the usual stale meta then it's the place to go.

    I might just wait until they fix the T1 perk glitch before I play it again…

    As a killer it's fun .. as a survivor it's not worth it

    Absolutely. It's very refreshing and fun, when you forced to use perks that you were never using. :D

    Tho… Sometimes it feels rigged, ngl…

    It just gave me this set of perks… That was so disgusting. :D I couldn't believe it was random.

    Super fun, because I can play with random stuff and not have to compete against full-meta killers/survivors.

    It's alot more chill, imo. Really competitive folk likely won't enjoy not having their perks of choice, so I feel like they tend to stay out of it. I think if you're a more casual player you'll find it more fun.
