Stop asking for 2v8 mode

"Q: Can we ever expect a gamemode with 2 killers and 8 survivors?

A: While we have received this suggestion multiple times, this is not something we are looking to do at the moment. This would require a lot of work to balance properly and we would rather focus our efforts on the base game rather than splitting our attention between two radically different gamemodes." - DBD Reddit AMA

Now stop asking! This would be awful anyway.

    Yeah. We clearly need a 2v10 gamemode instead.

    Implying they're focusing effort on their game in any other way than pumping out cosmetics and DLCs.

    2v8 would be a disaster. Even with a humongous map, you can't balance for different killers, or random gen placement. They struggle with that in normal maps, you want to see 5 gens clustered together with a nurse and spirit guarding them? Nope.

    the 2v8 would also not help a lot.

    yes, it would be a fun mode for a round or two, but the gameplay literally stays the same as in the original mode - you just have more players.


    instead of asking for this, rather unnecessary, mode, i think people should think about their own mode, with new mechanics, new gamaeplay and all of that.

    Which side is the 1? The answer may surprise you.

    Stop being so competitive, you'd be playing for fun not to try to win and get your pp all hard in the post game chat. Something this community doesn't understand.

    If there were 40 survivors...Id just play Bubba. Pretty sure at that point, it would be hard to NOT chainsaw a survivor.

    I would love a mode where I could play as the killer with a friend, but I don't think it would be fun for survivors. If two killers are on you, then you can get immediately downed from an attack from the second killer after the first hits you.

    Although I'd love to see what happens if two Bubbas chainsaw into each other

    They could just do a "super test hours" (like deathgarden has it rn).

    They just testing stuff out.

    And the whole bunny Feng thing needs to stop being asked too, two damn questions about it. Leave it be...
