2v8 Survivor sided Totally

[BRING PARTY STREAMERS]

with the new survivor buff coming in 2v8 2.0 like pallet respawn and flashlight just makes the gamemode unappealing to play as killer! no counter to flashlights in most cases and having a pallet every 15 feet lets not forget the gen progression increase but no gen regression increase just makes 2v8 way too survivor sided

I'm not so sure.

I'd have to see how it plays out in practice, but it doesn't seem so bad if survivors are trying for flashlight saves and if they get a jump on gens, then they slow down for killer to catch up. That's not a bad trade.

That said, I do wonder if this will do a thing to queue times. I get the feeling it's still gonna be a LOT of people queuing for killer.

I'm confused; don't you still get sent to cages in the next iteration? How would flashlights help you?

Killers will be required to pick up, which gives survivors a window to flashlight blind in this second iteration.

It's okay, you'll barely get to play killer with the inevitable queues anyway. Didn't think they could make this mode worse but here we are.

[feak]

you mean they're making it easier for survivors on a gamemode where nurse has 3 better blinks and huntress 10 aura reading hatchets?

it's so over...

Oof, I don't think that was needed (and I'm a survivor main).

Their reasoning was survivor didn't have enough on their end to make it interesting, which is sort of true. I think survivor side does need more to help even out the queue.

As long as it doesn't feel too much in favor of one side, I guess.

Flashlights are whatever, but rebuilding pallets and Survivors getting free No Mither self pickup is too much, especially with flashlights.

Can't wait for 8 Survivors not doing gens trying to flashlight blind me all game, having no counterplay of slugging to avoid flashlight saves in the open, Survivors that are injured only playing around open areas because of this, and since they arent doing gens the anti-snowball getting activated.

Anti-Snowball is allegedly not supposed to activate all the time, but they said the sane about the anti-3 gen blocking and that happens to at least 1 gen in my games nearly every game.

I think the anti-slug is a decent idea with 2 killers around, but the pallet reconstruction makes me concerned. The only upside being it will only work with up to 4 survivors with how classes have a limit, but even that could change between versions without us being told.

Bruh so what it's a temporary game-mode still in development where developers said multiple times that it's supposed to be chaotic, fun and entertaining, instead of being a ''balanced'' game-mode. Also they added Spirit, Blight and Nurse so pallets won't matter as much as V1.

This is also a valid argument. Fun is fun, after all. As long as most of us find it fun, we should be good.

I think it'd be funny as heck if I could bounce off the other killer to redirect/continue my rush.

I probably can't because I can't do that with survivors, but it'd still be funny.

I guess you played a lot as survivor to know how easy we win always, specially on SoloQ xd. 100 per cent of 4 out always. Omg.

[MadArtillery]

Well if it means I can actually play as killer occasionally sounds good to me. My escape rate was crazy in 2v8 already so perhaps frustration will clear the que.

It should be survivor sided for less queues, you should be happy about it, and you can't bring flashlight to the match in case you didn't know, we need to loot chests which is a time waste
