2 vs 8-Let's Discuss

[Wagnaroks]

How would yall feel about a 2 vs 8? As a killer main, i would love to be able to bring a friend of mine in and kill together. As a survivor, id think it would a absolutely chaotic time in a fun way. Bigger Map. More gens. What do you guys think? I want to hear from both a survivors side and killer side to this as well!

[Heimeri Klein]

It would be way to laggy people already get dedicate hit by the server at times. Otherwise id be down lol

[Simpleton]

Yeah, if they can get past the lag dilemma, then that would be perfect.

[Seumachan]

they barely get patches right, i highly doubt behavior could pull this off without it being nearly unplayable. Don't get me wrong, what does work right is great.. But.. Every patch brings something old breaking or a return of some sort of bug/glitch and it just.. it would not end well. Cool idea, but only in the hands of literally any other developer.

[Computer Vibes]

The chaos would be entertaining. Maps need a reworked versions of themselves for obvious reasons

[Nedim]

Unbalanced af, pressure would be huge, both chase em, one lunges for hit, and while he recovers from attack, other one finishes him, perk wise it would be a mess, imagine clearing 2 to 4 hex totems while being pressured from 2 sides, this suggestion doesnt only feel illegal but dumb as well

It could never really happen. What do you do if LF or infinite T3 MM camps a 3 gen the whole game. he never hooks just downs anyone near the 3 gen. He calls on coms for "cleanup on aisle 2".


The devs had a choice several years ago : make the game pretty or make the game able to support more players. They went with make the game prettier. Remember that DBD was on the verge of crashing when we added two AI zombies from Nemesis.

Except that isn't even true. Nemesis didn't save the game at all. Player count had been up for months. People need to stop trolling that the game was/is dying. That has never been the case, hell, the game has gotten MORE players over time!

Yeah we'd all love two camping bubbas

Imagine a plague or Legion with nurse or blight.

Have the killer with the easiest way to injure and the second to end chases fast, It would be hella unbalanced.

[Deadpool]

i would prefer a 5v5 (1 Killer + 4 Survs in each Team) Blue Team have to do blue Gens and Red Team the red Gens...or something like that.

[Loving Wound]

It would be funny at first but once the novelty wears off you have to deal with IT BEING ABSOLUTELY UNPLAYABLE for killer. 8 players body blocking, canceling pick up, sabotaging hook, 4 players on 2 gens, flashlights, etc. etc. etc.

Take all the absolute stupidity used to bully killers THAN MULTIPLY BY 2!

[Su0T]

I'd love to play like this.

Why do you always have to be so pessimistic? There are interesting combos you could do like a Myers exposing everyone and then having a Blight or Nurse slugging everyone they see. Have a plague get people in the broken status all game and have a great huntress shoot everyone. It could be fun and people could improve and find strategies together to have a more compatible duo.

Reading comprehension is obviously not your strong suit.

Since you brought it up: October 2021 = 1ook peak players. The last 30 days shows 53k peak and -18k average players.

But no , the numbers totally are not going down (monkaw, kek, pog).

If you made a new "mode", it will further split the population, making que times worse.
