As a die-hard fan of Dead by Daylight (DBD), I was thrilled when Behaviour Interactive announced their new 2v8 mode. The idea of teaming up with another killer to hunt down survivors seemed like an exciting addition to the game. However, my excitement was short-lived as I soon realized that the queue times for this mode were just as frustratingly long as ever.
1. Upon debut, Behaviour Interactive’s new 2v8 mode in Dead by Daylight (DBD) quickly gained popularity among its enthusiastic fanbase. However, there’s a snag: queue times remain excessively long due to the high demand for playing as the killer. The developers have tried to address this issue by providing a substantial Bloodpoint reward of 400% for those opting to play as survivors, but it hasn’t significantly improved the situation, as DBD 2v8 mode queue times remain just as lengthy.
In the classic 1vs4 game mode, dealing with killers can be quite challenging as a solo player, as you’re left juggling tasks like chasing and hooking survivors, as well as sabotaging generators. But having an evil partner by your side makes all the difference. The complexities of slugging, for instance, become significantly more manageable with teamwork. This arrangement, however, has sparked controversy among some players who argue that 2vs8 mode is not enjoyable and unfairly favors the killers.
It’s not surprising that with DBD 2v8 mode queue times remaining lengthy, some are airing their worries on social platforms. On Reddit, for instance, user afterdarhkTTV expressed frustration by stating they could watch an episode of One Piece between each match, indicating the wait time is approximately the same duration as a One Piece episode (22-25 minutes). On the other hand, users like yogimiamiman propose increasing the Bloodpoint reward to encourage players to queue up more often as survivors.
Although an increase in Bloodpoint earnings for survivors might not be enough to make players prefer them over killers due to the fun and engaging experience killers offer, particularly when playing with a teammate, it’s still possible, though unlikely, that the 2v8 mode may require adjustments to benefit survivors and reduce queue times.
