2v8 survival rate and killer rate flipped

I haven't lost a single game as survivor. Survivor survival rate and killer kill have already swapped in this mode. Having above 60% escape rate isn't healthy for the game.

    I've had completely the opposite experience. In truth, I usually do pretty well with my Killer games (not that I get to play that many). But of the 3 Chucky games I've played so far, we killed the majority of Survivors for a team Kill rate of 66.67%. The exception being one game which was a miserable rubber-banding disaster so I'm not sure I'd really count that.

    My Survival rate on the other hand has totally fallen off, with only 4 escapes in 16 games. It's weird how different people's experiences can be playing the same game.

    Ehh it's a temporary game mode, and tbh I've found killers do fairly well. Most of my 2v8 killer games go fairly well

    I play both sides about equally and I’m totally fine with survivors having it easier in 2v8 mode. We need something to incentivize more people to want to play survivor because the killer queue times are still insanely long. Apparently there are more than enough people who are happily willing to wait in long lines to play killer so it can’t be that bad. The handful of killer matches I’ve played myself as Wraith have been fine - at least 4K in each and a couple 8K.

    It's intended. First of all, 2v8 is the only place where soloQ can hope to escape, because in 1v4 those 40% of escapes are monopolized by SWFs. Secondly, we can't make killers stronger in 2v8, because the killer queue is already half an hour long, if anything they should make survivors even stronger to disincentivize players from jamming the killer queue too much. So it's a good thing survivors are stronger in 2v8, both for killer and survivor players in general.

    I have a 50% ER so far for this iteration. My 30-day in 1v4 is usually about the same. The matchmaking in 2v8 is abysmal. I had a match with a Sable who just crept around edgemap and went in and out of lockers collecting crows. When you land a few bad teammates like that you're trapped in an even bigger disaster than normal. I'm often the last to die and the highest on the scoreboard because my teammates are so incredibly bad that even a mediocre player like me is the best in the match.
