Different Game Modes

in Feedback and Suggestions

Dead by Daylight should have casual game modes with new mechanics and rulesets, e.g. 4 killers vs 16 survivors, killer vs killer 1 vs 1, give survivors baseball bats and guns to stun the killer, coordinated survivors can Mori a killer, etc.

    More than one killer would run into problems. Two running Nemesis couldn't happen because the game cannot handle more than two Zombies performance wise. There'd likely be issues with performance running all sorts of two-killer combos, let alone four and all their assets. A Switch for example would prolly melt and slide onto the floor trying to run any of this.

    And then there's gen spawn placements, the maps would have to be absolutely gigantic to accommodate what, 14 to 28 gens, a hundred pallets, 47 lockers, 89 hooks, etc.

    Also no one wants to go against both chainsaw bros, or a sweaty Blight and a sweaty Nurse together. Things like that.

    What about a speed mode? Where everyone, including the killer, runs at 200% haste for a certain amount of time if they inject themselves with blighted serum placed all around the map. I think it would be fun if there was a combat mode where four players have melee and ranged weapons -- or, even, magic powers -- and can attack the killer like in Friday The 13th.

    That's one of the reasons why F13 was so bad, because once people knew how to kill Jason, everyone was doing that instead of trying to escape

    This sounds like an entirely different game to me.
