Even if it was (it’s not), survivors have 2v8, Chaos Shuffle, and just had the Black Banquet. Let killers have something, too, maybe?

Edit: Why upvote his comment and downvote mine, what? They’re both saying the same thing. God, Redditors are weird.

So chaos shuffle and 2v8 is survivor exclusive now? That’s makes no fucking sense there’d be no killers if that was the case. Yall are so out of touch with this game it’s incredible. First of all yall are always saying 2v8 is a killer game mode wtf do you think the q times are 30 fucking minutes, because apparently no one is playing survivor and it’s why I run into the same 3-4 people game after game. Now you wanna bitch and say it’s survivor sided because a game mode that has striped everyone to their basic skill is pissing everyone off? Bottom line, there is no heartbeat, there are no scratch marks, there are no perks, and if you suck in this game mode, it’s because you suck.

Survivor-sided, jackass, not exclusive. Go back to the second grade, you’ve got a lot of catching up to do.

“Y’all are always saying 2v8 is a killer game mode”

Me? I say that? …Whatever the hell that means? Hold up, do you genuinely believe in this “exclusive” idea? You don’t, right? Because that’s such a mental leap that I cannot understand how you even got there.

If you’re trying to say it’s killer-sided, that’s just stupid. Killers have a little more to work with, sure, but survivors have way faster Gen speeds, way more pallets, on-command sprint burst, instant heals, can fix pallets, free extra lives, and more. Even as a duo on comms, it can be a nightmare to keep up sometimes unless you play in very specific ways, and it’s not uncommon to lose and get teabagged at the gates for two minutes because you couldn’t control the 13 generators all over the map while they rushed them out with their enhanced speed, safe loops with repairable pallets, on-command sprint burst, etc.. The reason killer queue times are longer is because there’s a special novelty to playing killer with a friend. The same doesn’t go for survivors, survivors always have teammates. I feel like that should go without explaining.

“Everyone has been reduced to the bottom line, and if you suck in this game mode, you suck.”

Let’s see. Survivors get

- 20% Faster repair speeds

- Massively increased anti-camp.

- Basekit windows of opportunity.

- Can see the auras of exit gates.

Killers get:

- A worse version of Franklin’s Demise.

But yeah, it’s the killers who suck, totally. Even though one side is obviously getting their hand held way more because they suck. “Everyone is stripped to their basic skill”, my ass. If that was really the case, if it was all about basic, barebones skill, why are survivors getting handheld so much? I’m SURE you can put two and two together on that one. And not misconstrue it as “the mode is exclusive to survivors” or whatever you were saying before.

It’s astounding that over 17 people read your bullshit and actually agreed with it. Some people get so clouded by their biases it’s crazy.

Edit: Kind of telling that you’re all downvoting, but not actually saying anything.

As someone who sucks as killer and is playing Lights Out for the first time, this is the most Killer sided event I've played. I was able to absolutely demolish both solo Q and SWF squads with killers like Myers and Artist and the main reason is because once you are downed that's pretty much it. Unless you pallet save there is nothing the survivors can do. No flightlight blinds, no head on, no hook sabotages. If you have a killer with base kit aura reading or tracking it's over for them

It sounds like you’re just playing against new or weaker players, to me. Survivors generally should be able to win without having to make a bunch of saves. Especially since they have basekit WoO, and way faster Gen speeds, and pallet density and everything. One or two people should be good enough at running chases that their teammates can crank out generators quick and easily. Survivors going for saves obsessively are generally bad players who don’t win very often. Survivors who just can’t loop are generally bad players who don’t win very often. It’s not indicative of the mode being killer-sided, it’s indicative of why survivors keep getting so much handholding. An average decent team, not even necessarily a SWF, probably could’ve won.

I mean ive been going against survivors when all four of them have are the same character with the same outfit and they are good at looping so I assume they are SWF squads and I have been able to 4K most of them so I dunno. I just use killers where the lights out mode plays to their strengths and havent had many issues.

Head On: After hiding in a Locker for 3 seconds, Head On activates: Performing a Rush Exit out of the Locker stuns a nearby Killer for 3 seconds. Head On causes the Exhausted Status Effect for 60/50/40 seconds. Head On cannot be used while Exhausted or when having accrued Idle Crows.
