2v8 is amazing ans should become a permanent gamemode

I believe 2v8 should stay in the Game, i rather hate the idea of it being temporary, it changes the game so much, new ideas, new ways to play, new skills to learn, tons of co-operation building. I was burnt out of the game for a while and missed the temporary gamemodes, I believe they should be permanent and people can enjoy them more throughout time, but I'm back and I'm loving this.

I also believe that maybe the other killers should be brought into the 2v8 mode without being optimized for it, they can get their own warning or category that says "not yet optimized for this gamemode" and you guys and start slowly optimizing them, and If they are in the game, people can give feedback and that should help you figure out how to implement them into the gamemode properly!

So pretty much, I think it would be amazing if this gamemode stayed and was wormed upon, it'd an amazing change to the Game, and the ability to kill with friends is amazing.

    Hard disagree. Game mode is not fun. It’s just survivors farming altruism because that’s the only reliable source of BP and then escaping is a secondary objective. Every toxic trait you might find in a 1v4 is just doubled. Killers are overtuned and it’s the same combos and tunneling over and over. None of these maps were designed for this mode either.

    I'm not sure there's a lot of tunneling since the killers don't have a good way to locate survivors they just hooked.

    But it's definitely my least favorite game mode, and I'd be happy to see it not come back. I'm with you there.

    The main problem with keeping 2v8 as a permanent thing is that the queue times take a heavy blow. Right now it can take up to 20 minutes to find a game as killer and from what i've seen, 2v8 also affects the queue times of classic DBD.

    Instead they should switch between modifiers faster than what they are currently doing, so we can get to experience a bit of everything more often.

    Of course in a perfect world, every modifier would be available at all times, i enjoy every single one of the new gamemodes that BHVR has released.
