Dead by Daylight 2v8 Game Mode Details

[@luckyjoe8951]

I just straight up hope this mode stays forever, it'll make the game so much fun

[@LokarMLGgamer69420]

I will delete the game and never play it or give it a dollar again untill they bring it back :)

[@alibabamokursken4296]

The way they word it i do think that will be the case, it sounds like a new game mode rather than an event mode thingy

[@williejackson6905]

​@@LokarMLGgamer69420shit I won't even bother logging into the game if they do this...I mean it really wouldn't be too much of a difference...long ass matches 🤦🏾‍♂️

[@JokerGaming-iv1tm]

Same here

[@mrnocturnal3092]

They differentiate between modifiers and gamemodes in this clip and game modes are permanent.

[@GoId3nWrId]

This Gamemode should just stay forever it shouldn't be limited at all, if thats how it works then Im excited because I want this mode to stay in forever

[@JokerGaming-iv1tm]

Same here

[@MaybeFluffeez]

I’m pretty sure when they said it’s a game mode and not a modifier that means it’s not leaving.

[@jonnybravo473]

Any mode. The current is stale now there’s not enough variation the perks are meh mostly too

[@renamkr1347]

@@MaybeFluffeez I will only last until 8 august. But will probably be back forever after they adjust it with balance and things like that

[@alijahplays9646]

It seems very thought out and fun, I hope for more killers to be implemented in the future though.

[@wiffy3067]

Ya they should have all killers in this mode.

[@Young_Link_.0]

Bro two chuckys would be crazy.

[@raiden4ever55]

I know they won't be in it intially. But imagine the Doctor and Legion as a team. That would be ceaselessly annoying.

[@NA_Lead94]

That's true, Legion is gone have the 5° frenzy hit everytime, and Doctor is put everyone to mads real quick

[@Wolf-fighter]

@@NA_Lead94 the doctor pairs with nearly anything really bothering .

[@akeelyaqub2538]

I can’t comprehend how excited i am for 2v8. ESPECIALLY if its going to lean into a casual style rather than being a sweat fest. Also I love that perks will be disabled for it.

[@charlesricher8659]

The idea of expanding players in a match is exciting but if you disable perks you won't be able to focus on uncompleted exclusive challenge for perks in your archives or current tome or event tomes. Through the modifiers there were hints that's the Dev's were planing on take more control of your gameplay style wen they started to limit customization on how you start matches.

[@akeelyaqub2538]

@@charlesricher8659 just play the normal mode for challenges.

[@StefanBrokowki]

You think they will add back the old version of the RPD map for this mode? The one people thought was too big.

[@wilfdbd]

they are probably going for original stuff for now (survs, killers, maps), they should play safe to see how it goes as it grows, they might just start exploring more stuff

[@squidgetissmall]

I was theorizing this

[@I7so]

Red forest is much bigger

[@LeTempy-1997]

2v8 has always been something me and my SO wanted since I got her into DBD. We both like Killer but never could enjoy it together outside of custom matches. This is so cool and I hope it is something that stays around instead of something like My Little Oni.

[@Thebucs14625]

It boggles my mind that this game is about 8 years old, and it still doesn’t have a permanent other game mode.

[@faaskee7071]

8 people t-bagging at the exit gate.

[@BabyGhast4]

Once they add the other killers into this mode, I think it would be really fun to play as co-commanders of an army by playing as The Twins and The Knight.

[@morganelliston]

Don't know how I feel about classes tho, really enjoyed the freedom of perks

[@haldosprime3896]

Might actually get back into the game if this sticks around. No perks is not ideal but with so many players running around it would be best to keep it simple, especially as a first run of the mode. Easier to keep a hold on balance between the main mode and 2v8.

[@jacksonpeck5290]

Nurse and huntress combo gonna be annoyingly fun😂😂😂😂😂

[@thenightmarefox]

Me who mains Nurse secondly to Mastermind: Psychotic laughter*

[@SaintHierophant]

Every good idea in DBD is taken directly from community posts. People came up with this themselves, myself included, years ago. You're welcome, BHVR!

[@spacecowboy1438]

They act like it's a new idea but really it's just finally something they could get to work or put the effort in for.

[@SkullBeast3000]

​@@spacecowboy1438it's good that they are listening to the community

[@leoncoben6983]

It's an idea they knew they could do but decided to put it off until DBD started to see significant decline. This is completely intentional, and kept this in their back pocket as backup kindling to reignite the fire.

[@Stirofechos]

Stop lying you didn’t create shit

[@Unlimited-D-Works]

Bro. A 2 v 8 gamemode is something that is common sense to add. Like what. You make it seem like it’s hard to come up with. It’s really not hard

[@kushkong1339]

This was the move I have been waiting for since I quit back when the twins came out of PTB. I always said "I'll play it again, but they need something *NEW* " and they finally are doing it. I keep my word I WILL be back for this.

[@vizionofdoom1481]

I genuinely can't wait for kill with friends!

[@Shurikan136]

Welp I love the idea, but the fact that I cant play the xenomorph and my good friend play the demagorgan at the same time is disappointing. Hope they change this later like they mentioned.

[@Monsterfiluto_23]

They are waiting for feedback? Me and my friends have been waiting so long for this. Hype is real. It feels like a ressurection of this game.

[@AWOOGO]

If as killer I can run my full oblivious builds then I'm happy

[@ForeverVibez]

Nope classes

[@xplodingsushi3261]

Is it only certain killers in this mode or is it any that you own? And when does this game mode come out?

[@xplodingsushi3261]

@DorianAmoson thanks, I feel like it’s stupid it’s only certain killers it should be all the ones you own that are your choice it would be so fun to have ghostface and micheal on the same team

[@Void-from-The-Void]

​@@xplodingsushi3261They said they will add more characters later on depending on the community feedback

[@StefanBrokowki]

The game play shown has the Huntress. She wasn't one of the original 5. The original 5 was Trapper, Billy, Wraith, Nurse, and Hag. That's if you exclude Michael. Hell Doctor Dropped before her. So if Huntress is there then they Lied.

[@KL-ki8db]

@@xplodingsushi3261 I think it is better they do it slow since there are some killers who would probably break the mode and game if they were released into the mode without certain adjustments. Ones I can think of are dredge asking the question if the partner hunter harms a survivor, will nightfall be calculated as such.

[@JustRichii]

@@StefanBrokowki I think their definition of original is not exactly which killers are released in that particular order. I assume the killers are based on the base game killers that are already included & you don't need to purchase, where the huntress is part of that group. I would though love to see Doctor in there eventually, would be fun to land a shockwave on 8 players and hear them all scream

[@DoctorakiYT]

Can you play 2 killers with a friend, or you play with randoms?

[@doucy_07]

I don’t like the only 5 killers thing you should be able to play whoever that kinda kills this game mode for me but this is still going to be very fun I bet

[@MrSlasher495]

There gonna add more it’s just that they are using the original 5 to test the mode

[@Raccoon-man2253]

Are we able to play with our friends as killer like invite them into our lobby?

[@Kyriostang]

I hope it becomes a permanent mode in the game

[@Ksukiyomi]

Is addons going to be available in 2v8 as killer ?

I will literally DC as a killer if I get a huntress teammate, I can't stand her annoying humming. Plus she's cheap and could probably 1v8 anyways

[@TheOni1224]

Aw man I wanted to do a ghostface a legion match with my duo 😭😭😭

[@NA_Lead94]

I feel like that they're gone have a rough time trying to put Xenomorph there, even though if they put him that would've been incredibly, but killer like Dredged, Demo or even Freddy, shouldn't be a problem because lockers and gens are everywhere, and also Demo can setup portals. Anyways, I can't wait to play that with my friends.

Can't wait for this but I do want the other killers. If we can double Ghost Face it will be just like those movies that they couldn't license. But I mostly want to team my Ghost Face up with my pal's Tiff.

I hope they add more killers into the mode, I think having two xenos would be awesome!

- "Events." In other words. Time limited for something that's been called for since it's Beta. I won't even bother playing the EVENT if it's Temporary Time limited.

Dont let the killers be overpowered they are way overpowered then survivors

[@angelapileggi6031]

It's really cool that they're bringing us this mode...but I do hope they don't take very long to open it up to licensed characters. I don't care for the original DBD characters at all, I only got into the game for the licensed content (Resident Evil, Ghostface, etc..) . I'm sure I'm not the only one.

only the original 5 killers? Holy snooze fest i almost got excited :/ bet survivors will have a blast though

[@angelapileggi6031]

Yeah I'm not happy about it either, when people started talking about it I got excited picturing having to go up against duos like Ghostface and Michael. I'm a survivor main, but I main Claire Redfield, and I hate going against the original killers. They're either very boring or miserable, or annoying (I HATE Huntress's humming). Hopefully they open it up to the characters I care about (mainly Ghostface and the Resident Evil characters). Until then this mode seems a little meh to me, and I don't like the idea of there being no perks.
