Dead by Daylight’s highly-requested new 2v8 mode<\/a> has been quite popular among the game’s players since it kicked off this morning – and perhaps a little too popular among killers. Many killer players have complained about the long queue times<\/strong> in the 2v8 mode on social media, leading Behaviour Interactive to make some minor tweaks to the mode by giving survivors some more Bloodpoints<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

\n
\n

Only issue I’m having with 2v8 is the super long killer queue- honestly could make the incentive 1000% bloodpoints for survivor at this point from how long they are<\/p>\n

Aside from that- this is the most fun I’ve had in DBD in years, and I think the playercount speaks for itself<\/p>\n

im in dbd 2v8 with a friend queuing for killer we’ve been in queue for over ten minutes<\/p>\n

— Fakey (@FakenameForevr) July 25, 2024<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n

To help remedy the wait for killers, DBD has implemented a 400% Bloodpoint – or 4x multiplier – bonus for survivors<\/strong>, encouraging players to queue up in that role for those sweet Bloodpoints.<\/p>\n

The team acknowledged that “killers are experiencing long wait times” due to a lack of survivors playing, and said they hope that the hefty Bloodpoint bonus will increase the number of players joining the survivor queue.<\/p>\n

\n
\n

Killers are currently experiencing long queue times because there’s no enough Survivors to fill their lobby – this incentive should help by increasing the number of players queuing as Survivor.
It’s still subject to change depending on the number of players playing both roles!<\/p>\n

— Dead by Daylight (@DeadbyDaylight) July 25, 2024<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n

The bonus even carries over to regular trials for now – so whether you’re playing DBD in the new 2v8 mode or just hopping into an everyday trial, playing survivor will temporarily grant you a pretty huge Bloodpoint bonus. In fact, it’s the biggest Bloodpoint bonus<\/a> developers have ever offered <\/strong>for players joining a certain queue. However, BHVR clarified on X that it’s “still subject to change” depending on the number of players playing both roles” – so if you’re looking to earn Bloodpoints fast, now’s a great time to hop onto the game and play a few survivor matches.<\/p>\n

\n
\n

🤯 That’s a lot of Killers! To help get matches started, we have upped the Bloodpoint Incentive for Survivors.<\/p>\n

Now, Survivors can 2v-eat too. pic.twitter.com\/1pR2C0uMgn<\/a><\/p>\n
