What about different game modes?

Would love to see some new game modes added to spice the game up. I'm relatively new here and I love this game so far, but generators are getting a little stale. I have a few suggestions:

Survival: 3 hooks and you're out. Once hooked, you die but respawn at a random spot on the map. Last survivor wins.
Capture the flag: Survivors must capture an object and run it across the map before the killer gets you. While carrying the flag, you are revealed to the killer at all times. Must cap 3 flags before X time limit.
Monkey in the middle: All survivors are revealed to the killer, but all are immune to attacks except for 1. Killer doesn't know which and must kill someone before X time limit.
Flashlight tag: All survivors are equipped with a purple flash light. Most stuns on killer scores highest. Killer is equipped with Franklin's Demise by default and must knock out all the flashlights to win a round. Best of 3.
Hook Rush: A variation of the current "gen rush" mode. Maps spawn with extra hooks Survivors must dismantle all hooks except for 1 to open the trap door.

Is this community receptive to other modes? I think it would be great.

    I like the idea of these, but they'd need a lot more thought put into them. They'd probably not be ranked, either in a separate matchmaking or exclusive to KYF.

    Plus what was said here applies. It'd be fun, but if the devs were to add anything like this, it'd definitely be a low priority, if at all.

    New game modes would be nice, even if they were just added to KYF. I always thought a game mode where only 1 survivor gets out alive, changing survivor game play to a game of planned betrayal for your own benefit becomes a thing. Never probably worked for any ranked thing but KYF be a hoot.
