Wraith is op in 2v8
I hope this is a bug because this video clearly shows his uncloaking speed is much faster in 2v8 than 1v4 for some reason https://old.reddit.com/r/deadbydaylight/comments/1h0em4m/wraith_uncloak_speed_in_2v8_shown_side_by_side/

Please extend 2v8
It makes me sad it ends in a few days. Please extend it like last time so we can enjoy it for a bit longer.

I can't go back to 1v4 after 2v8
Any other survivors feel the same? 1v4 just seems so tedious and frustrating compared to 2v8. In 2v8 there's constant excitement, and you get much cooler abilities. It also never feels like games are over in the first 2 minutes like in 1v4, you're able to make a comeback as survivor. I just wish the devs would make 2v8…

We want 2v8 to be permanent
Am I the only one who couldn't go back to 1v4 after playing 2v8? It just feels so slow and boring compared to the constant excitement of 2v8. 2v8 feels like a hectic party game, just like this game was supposed to be. I really hope the devs make 2v8 a permanent game mode in the future.

2v8 is a lesson for devs that strong perks are fun
The devs are so worried about "balance" that they've nerfed so many perks into being useless, especially for survivors. This isn't how you make a game fun. I remember an interview with a dev in another game that a core design philosophy for them is making abilities feel powerful, because it's FUN for players. Now look what…
-
Survivor classes nerfed in 2v8?
Escapist no longer has personal sprint burst and scout no longer reveals the killer's radius to the whole team when in LOS. These were the most played 2 classes and the main reasons people chose those classes. I thought devs would want to make survivor more appealing to play after queue times were so long for killers last…
-
Why 60% kill rate and not 55%?
The stats show 2v8 had a 45% escape rate for the two most played classes and it felt much better for survivors. You rarely saw the level of dc'ing and giving up as in 1v4 because survivors could actually make a comeback. The matches also never felt over within the first 2 minutes like it so often does in 1v4. This is why…
-
Why does every useful survivor perk get gutted?
Adrenaline, Boil Over and Distortion nerfs were the last straw for me. Distortion has one single charge while killers get to wall hack all game with constant aura reading JFL. You can't even hide anymore in a game that was based on stealth. Survivors are just supposed to be playthings for a killer's ego and not allowed to…

"Play" button greyed out on Xbox
The play and store buttons are greyed out. I'm connected to Xbox live and can play other games just fine. Any idea what the issue is?

1v4 feels terrible compared to 2v8
The game is intolerable solo queue survivor these days. The camping, slugging, survivors dc'ing or suing on hook left and right. 2v8 solved these problems. In 2v8 the whole team was usually trying their best until the very end, while in 1v4 people are already giving up at 5 gens. Please bring 2v8 back asap because 1v4 is…
-
Hatch is a problem for game balance
I believe the existence of the hatch is a problem for game balance. Let me explain why. The game is balanced for a 40% escape rate, but the devs count hatch as escape. Let me say personally as survivor that getting hatch doesn't feel like a victory, it still feels like a loss or at most a mercy escape since you didn't…
-
Please bring back 2v8 asap
I know they already announced another iteration will come, but I'm worried about how long it will take. I don't want to wait until next year because 1v4 just doesn't have the excitement and chaos of those wild 2v8 games.
-
Can't escape anymore in 2v8?
Did they change something about the MMR? Because the past few days it feels nearly impossible to escape. Another extremely killer sided event. No wonder there's a survivor shortage.
-
1v4 feels bad as survivor after playing 2v8
I don't think I can go back to 1v4 survivor after this event ends. Before 2v8 we had nothing to compare it with, but now I think it makes the issues in 1v4 more obvious. Too much time spent doing nothing. There's less of everything happening in 1v4, which makes me miss the constant chaos of 2v8. 90s gen feels so long…
-
Stat: The majority of people are playing 2v8 now
From the dev update: "We’ll wrap things up with a deep dive into the results after 2v8 is over but wanted to share this, which informed our decision to extend: 2v8 has proven to be very popular despite the queue times, accounting for over 40% of all matches since its release, even after removing the extra BP incentive." If…
-
Many survivors don't want to go back to 1v4 after 2v8 ends
1v4 feels overly sweaty not to mention boring as solo queue survivor after the chill chaotic fun matches of 2v8. The maps just feel empty and there's barely anything going on. I really hope they make 2v8 permanent because 1v4 is just not it anymore.
-
2v8 not included in new roadmap?
I really don't understand, many players are having the most fun in years and the devs are going to take it away from us so soon without any plan to reimplement? The devs need to start listening to the players because we want 2v8 to STAY.
-
Just give killers 8 survivor bots so they stop complaining about queues
I'm really worried that killer mains are going to sabotage the new 2v8 mode and prevent it from becoming a permanent game mode because of their constant complaining about queue length. I say just give them full survivor bot games so they don't have to wait in queue anymore.
-
Kill rates will need to be lowered if 2v8 becomes permanent
The reason is queue times. The main reason the kill rate was ever increased to 60% from 50% is to help reduce queue times for survivors. But why was there ever a killer shortage in the first place? Not because survivor is more fun, but because survivor was the only way to play with friends. With 2v8 killers can play with…
-
How come I can't play on Xbox?
Today suddenly the "Play" and "Store" buttons are greyed out and I can't play. I tried restarting my Xbox to no avail. Is there some kind of maintenance going on or can other console players play at all right now?
-
BHVR needs to clarify if 2v8 is becoming permanent asap
I don't want to get my hopes up, because if it disappears for no reason in 2 weeks I may just quit the game because I can't go back to the normal game mode after this. The playerbase wants to hear some communication from the devs about what is the plan, don't leave us in the dark.
-
Priority queue would solve long killer queues
Let me explain how it works in other games. When there's a role shortage you play one game as survivor to get a priority pass which lets you get to the front of the line as killer. This would increase the overall supply of survivors while giving those killers a payoff for contributing to shortening queue times.
-
Why not a 4v4 mode?
This new 2v8 mode got me thinking, why are we so limited thinking there has to be 4 survs for 1 killer? I'm envisioning a hardcore 4v4 mode, but with superbuffed survivors to compensate for their number. We should go all out and give the survs whatever they need to overcome, like smoke grenades, stun grenades, tasers,…
-
There is no solution to long killer queues
You can increase the BP bonus to 1000% and it won't change anything, especially since bloodpoints are almost useless at this point and you don't even need it for 2v8. People are going to play the role they strongly prefer. The most surprising thing to me isn't that killers have long queues now, it's that queues were…
-
It's time to release more killers in 2v8
I'm sure I speak for many people when I say please do this asap because we're tired of facing huntress every game. There's no reason we should be limited to just 5 when there is such a big roster. It's clear that 1v4 is done, 2v8 is the main game now.
-
70s gen in 2v8 feels much better as survivor
One reason I haven't been playing much lately is because sitting for 90s on a gen feels like a slog. I was pleasantly surprised to see the reduced gen time in 2v8, and it makes a difference because the gens are popping fast and there are many other survivors to help speed it up more. I think 2v8 is a breath of fresh air…
-
2v8 needs to become permanent
This mode brought me back to the game and it feels like how the game was meant to be as a chaotic party game. It would be extremely disappointing if it disappears in 2 weeks because 1v4 doesn't have the same excitement for me and many other players. I hope devs are listening to the playerbase who want this to be a…
-
Playing killer isn't fun anymore because it's too easy to win
I main Twins and almost every game is an easy 4k (I blind them with Third Seal and slug all 4). The devs should understand that games are fun when they're challenging. some killers may have complained before 6.1 about any kind of survivor counterplay but listening to the loudest complainers is not a way to run your game. I…

Breaking down the facts: Killers are massively overpowered and the grim numbers aren't even telling
'll just drop the science right away so you get the idea. Killer is obviously overpowered. Overall, survivors only survive 40-43 percent, and killers kill 57-60 percent. Of course this is bad game balance that should be fixed, but the problem is much, much worse than the stats show. Let me explain... The devs have admitted…
-
Was overcome nerfed?
It now says retain speed boost on hit for +2 seconds, I'm pretty sure a few months ago it said +150% speed for 3 seconds after hit.
-
How has SM not been nerfed yet?
There's no need to list the reasons why it's op, it's been done already. SM is sitting at a 70% kr and is terrible to play against. In other games something so op would be hotfixed within 48 hours. How can the devs be fine with this?

Why is my game all blurry since the patch? (Xbox Series S)
I haven't played in a month and just installed the new patch. The graphics look really bad now and blurry. I thought my system settings changed maybe but it's the same and other games look fine. Is this a known issue they're working on or it just my Xbox? In addition there are weird bouncy motions going on in my game, like…
-
Twins now has a higher kill rate than Skull Merchant
My request to the devs is please stop reworking killers, because "rework" in their eyes clearly means to make a killer ridiculously overpowered and then when more people obviously play it they see it as a success. 80% of your playerbase are survivors, it's time to start thinking about their fun as well. If every game was…
-
Twins now has the 2nd highest kill rate just under SM
If the goal now is to rework unpopular killers to make them overpowered so that more people play them, then the future doesn't look good for survivors. It makes no sense why Twins needed buffs when it already had a 59% kill rate. The issues that killers said were frustrating about Twins are what gave survivors a chance of…
-
Is 30% escape rate normal now in solo q?
I've been tracking nearly 100 games now and my escape rate is 30.5%. It feels impossible to escape if a killer is trying to win and when it happens it just feels like luck or they weren't trying.
-
Does 2k make killer MMR go down?
I'm wondering if the average kill rate is 60%, doesn't that mean that a 2k is technically a loss for the killer and makes their mmr decrease? Since a killer's mmr is based on their performance relative to other killers, not survivors. Oherwise the mmr system wouldn't work, because every killer's mmr would be increasing…
-
Please make a ranked mode with tight matchmaking
Please I'm so sick of this broad MMR system matching me with players who don't do gens and seem like they just installed the game an hour earlier. I would rather play a ranked mode with tight matchmaking, even if it takes longer to find good games. For people who just want to play chill with fast games they can do the…

Do Sole Survivor and Hope work when the killer closes hatch?
I'm wondering do these perks require all 5 gens to be complete, or do they also activate when the gens aren't done but killer closes hatch as the last survivor?

I'm unhappy I need to buy the PC version just to get access to in-game chat
The social aspect of games is a big reason I like multiplayer instead of single player games against npcs. This game has a chat function but for some inexplicable reason it's not available to console players. I want to be able to see and participate in endgame chat, even if it's just a basic "good job" to my teammates. I'm…

Twins are going to be insanely overpowered after the update
Listen I'm a Twins main. I love the uniqueness of the playstyle and I'm really worried about these changes. With the new update Viktor will no longer attach after injuring a survivor, only after downing them. There's a major problem with this. Viktor is extremely fast and unloopable. The counter to his high speed is that…
-
Please don't nerf Windows of Opportunity
There's lots of chatter going around that devs are planning to nerf this next after the Adrenaline nerf. Without this perk I basically feel blind and can't enjoy the game. I can say for myself and perhaps other survivors that if Windows gets nerfed it will be the straw that breaks the camel's back and I will no longer play…

Why is Demogorgon able to set portals right next to gens?
This needs to be looked at. It makes it way too easy to camp gens and 3 gen.

Is Deathslinger the worst killer in the game?
It seems like if you miss the shot by 1cm they don't get hit, meanwhile other ranged killers like Huntress can miss by a meter and it still targets the hitbox. The time to reload as well makes him very slow. If any killer needs a buff it's this one and not already strong killers like huntress and twins.

Every game tonight is a 4k for the killer
Just played 5 games tonight and every single one was a 4k for the killer. The MMR system clearly doesn't work. I'm not sure how much more of this I can take. This game is just a frustrating experience for solo q.

The vast majority of players want to be able to disable the chat filter
Read the comments, almost nobody supports this draconian chat filter where you can't even type stuff like "gg", "lol", or "I killed you". This is a mature rated game yet the players are treated like preschool children who can't say something naughty. I think the devs don't understand that smack talk is part of pvp games…
-
Games shouldn't feel so hopeless if someone dies
I think a big problem with this game's balance is how easy it is for killer to guarantee a 4k if they tunnel someone out at 5 gens. If someone dies at 5 gens it's pretty much over. If 2 people die at 3+ gens it's also over. This doesn't make the game fun for the survivors or the killer either because it's just boring.…
