Gen Speeds 2vi8 seem outlandishly fast?
I'm sorry if this is the wrong board to discuss, but I had to come here and make a statement.
I've waited in queue as killer for almost an hour, only to join a game that literally lasts five minutes. I was playing Trapper (Which was probably my first mistake)
and there was an Oni as my teammate and generators just kept popping off left and right as him and I went about chasing our survivors. The game was done in no less then five minutes and I rage quit because I just wasted time in a lobby for a game to go that fast.
There seriously needs some gen regression abilities or something to help killers out in slowing or blocking gens to give them some help.

Its a hit or miss, if its a premade lobbies then yeah, if its mostly casuals then its relativly like 1-3 escape at best.
Yeah, I definitely do notice the difference. Premade lobbies definitely are more organized and coordinated where as random lobbies seem a bit more scattered and unorganized. I didn't think about that at first.
There is a gen slowdown mecha in game too if the survivors are outperforming the killers too much and same goes for killers outperforming the survivors but its a bit meh implemented i mean its great and all but it does not really help much.
But yeah again i dont think there is anything they can do to prevent premades, honestly i Q casuals always i do legion for dopamin hits and do well 1-3 escape and im feeling pretty good!
Only thing i wish is 10x multi
I mean, having 7 solo queue teammates never gets you anywhere typically. But if at least half of those people are reliable and decent at the game, you've already won. The game mode has always been survivor sided, Killer is just too fun and more realistic to play, cus who has 7 other people they can SWF with?
THIS 100%
I do enjoy playing killer more in 2v8 then I actually do in 1v4, because you have someone that can help you cover half the distance you normally would in 1v4, chasing one survivor in 1v4 you could easily lose 2 gens by the time you hook them.
In my experience, 2v8 has just become 1v4 with more players. Most trials are steamrolls and you don't get anywhere unless you're lucky or have a coordinated SWF.
In my trials so far, Survivors get preoccupied with other objectives so quickly that gens either get abandoned or they all pop at the expense of a few Survivors. Like @Coffee2Go said, 1-3 is the norm. So I don't know that gen speed is all that important anymore.
2v8 gens are the slowest they have ever been with guide getting nuked.
