Kill Switch update: We have temporarily Kill Switched the Forgotten Ruins Map due to an issue that causes players to become stuck in place. The Map will remain out of rotation until this is resolved.

2v8 should be permanent

1v4 feels so empty and slow in comparison.

    I voted for the permanent option in the survey, but I'm fine with breaks if they actually spend time developing the mode. But if the mode is basically 'finished', then yeah I'll take permanent 2v8.

    I agree! 2v8 is just more fun and it surrounds you with alot of different people and you meet more friends i can honestly say most of the time you get more gens done vs 1v4 where 1 person is running around doing nothing, another person is hooked, one opening chests or hiding ect vs multiple people that can do things all at once if that makes sense? its so dull and boring going back to 1v4 with the same tunneling, camping and slugging killers - I hope for it to be permanent one day, i would never go back to 1v4 if that happened. its just something about having so many people on the map at once, im a lara main and i can honestly say i enjoy playing killer waaaaay more now when i have a buddy teamed up with me.

    I think it should only come back every 6 months, tbh. The game just doesn't have the numbers to support 1V4 and 2V8 yet (and honestly, if FNAF wasn't able to grow the base enough then I don't think it ever will). This will also give the devs more time to cook up new Survivor classes and make sure new Killers are bug free when added. Otherwise, I think the mode will get stale. I've already noticed that a lot of the bigger content creators don't play it very often.

    That said, I suppose it can come back a little more often with no new content added if there's nothing else going on in the DBD world. We might have a quiet couple of months coming up while BHVR get their house in order.

    But you can't play 3/4 of the killers I was bored after 2 days… with usual bhvr balancing ruining the mode, Oni/ Legion/Nurse are multiple tiers above slinger, nemesis,trapper, huntress and the rest

    I think all modifiers coming in waves should be the standard. If 2v8 was permanent everyone will eventually become tired of it and go back to 1v4. If you make modifiers limited time people will look forward to playing it and milking as much fun from it as possible before it leaves.

    This is exactly how I feel, like I'd prefer it to be permanent because I prefer the mode over 1v4, especially with not as much to learn and more fun. At the same time though, if they take the survey into account and decide not to make it permanent… that's fine too.

    Yeah I feel the same way. I'm just playing it for the Quests and the BP, since I need to spend 2mil on my p100 just to get one, single unit of the add-on I'm searching for. I don't really enjoy having extra selfish teammates and getting slaughtered.

    I got tunneled AND slugged by a Spirit today. She specifically went to where the uncagings were happening and I was being healed, and then chose to pursue me, twice, out of the three or four people there. Had a score of 8k, which wasn't even worth the multiplier. Give them time and the dirty killers will figure out how to ruin 2v8 too.
