I waited 30 minutes for this?
So…had to take a screenshot...I waited 30 minutes(though played survivor) to have a teammate be AFK the entire match I got 2 hooks by the end and just open the exit gate because I'm sorry I gave up at the end. The game never kicked them for being AFK and it has done this in the past to where an entire match a killer is AFK and just doesn't get kicked until the very end. What's funnier he started moving at the end game. Like I get you walked away to maybe do something but why doesn't the game kick a player for being AFK for X amount of time? I wasn't in the mood to wait 30 minutes just to end up with an AFK teammate.

Yeah the game should boot them and replace them with a bot after a certain amount of time. Thats not fair to you.

I faced a legion who had a teammate just never move and sadly they got destroyed and were replaced by the bot at the very end of the match when it didn't matte

I've had three 2v8 matches as survivor where one of the killers was AFK the entire time, I genuinely felt terrible for the remaining killer because they just got bulldozed, and the maps are so large, there's no way to really make it work alone.

This is why I dont really understand why they keep bringing back 2v8 without any substantial changes which would make Survivor more appealing and would therefore result in less problematic queuetimes for Killers. You wait 30 minutes for a game with a Killer AFK. Or I once waited 30 minutes for a Killer who was just sandbagging me. Or you wait 30 minutes just to end up with a Killer who is very new to the game and therefore makes it impossible for you to win.
If they would actually find some way to reduce the queuetimes by making more Survivors play 2v8 (and no, throwing BPs at them is not the way to go), we would have shorter queuetimes and issues like written above are not as impactful anymore. It is less likely that Killers are AFK and even if you might have a bad game because the other Killer is AFK, sandbagging or simply new, it does impact your experience way less if you only wait 5 minutes for a game instead of 30 minutes.

It's called we were waiting in normal queue(not playing while we wait) and are distracting ourselves with something else longer than 15 minutes. Or we fell asleep. Comes with this ADHD thing everyone has.
Yeah this sucks but it results from BHVR's ingenious idea.

I had a match in RPD where my partner was playing friendly. It was kind of early in the match so it had only just started occurring to me that I'm the only one who has hooked anyone. Then 3 gens popped practically simultaneously. Chasing a noise notification I ran into that open office area in RPD East and saw my partner watching a group of 4 survivors on a gen. I hit one before I realized what was going on because they weren't really scattering and he was just kind of looking around. I just gave up - get your gens done, get out, and let me requeue.
An Ada and Leon tracked me down after the exit gates were powered but I wasn't in the mood for whatever they were trying so I just led them back to a gate and smacked the controls. Just get out.
I'll play friendly sometimes in 1v4 if I feel like it and the survivors seem chill but not after waiting 20 minutes in the freaking queue and not when I have a partner depending on playing like I'm supposed to. So frustrating.

This happened to me too. Just another reason 2v8 sucks.

I honestly don't think there's any way to make survivor more appealing in 2v8. The novelty of being able to play with another killer will always be the popular choice in this mode

Yeah, sadly I dont really know what to do to actually make Survivor more appealing. Because the things which are frustrating in 2v8 are not really fixable. But I know that throwing BP-incentives at Survivors does not work - did not work for the first iteration of 2v8 and does not work for the current one.
I think the best way would be to make 2v8 full PvE so that two Killers can play against 8 Bots. This would basically allow instant Matchmaking for Killers.

Anyone care to explain what the down votes are for? I'm actually, genuinely curious.

The killer bots are terrible. I don't even think the Blight bot know how to lethal rush, and just walks around the map.

Happens whe ques are too long and some people just dont want to play survivor while waiting and go for dinner or watch videos thats it but it sucks.

Some are but nurse bot is straight wallhack, spirit bot is terryfying almost wallhack she will track you no mather what and wesker bot can be pretty precise with his dashes, m1 bots are the worst and i bet blight is bad too because his power requires some brain power and thinking to use its not straight damage dash like weskers, huntress bot sucks too she wont use hatchet if she has not clear sight but thats almost never so she becomes just 110 killer with m1 lol.

And billy bot I cant even imagine that working.

I think after like 1-2 mins it should just boot you and replace you with a bot

I've had 5 games ruined so far by AFK Killer teammates.
Make them click ready again or stay in the queue, better yet send them to the back of the queue if they don't click.
