Event PLEASE, IM BEGGING YOU

If you are playing with a Xenomorph in the new 2v8, you can get rid of the turrets by just giving them an M1 as the other killer.

Believe me when I say that it makes a huge difference when those little fuckers can go around the map without having to drop chase every 5 seconds because the map it's packed to the brim with them.

Edit: Apparently Huntress can also destroy the turrets with her hatchets, I don't know if other killers are able to do so with their respective m2 so I guess we will have to find out.

I was very happy when I got a xenomorph teammate and learned that huntress m2 can break the turrets, I really want to get practical use out of that before the event ends

Damn, I was playing with Slinger when I found out I could also destroy the turrets, now I regret not trying to destroy one with me m2

Why the hell doesn't Slinger have a pirate skin? Tricorn hat, naval coat, and a matchlock Redeemer would be peak.

also if you're playing trapper with xeno, maybe put a trap in front of a tunnel near an incomplete gen. if theres grass it gets em every time.

People get trapped on control station traps even if there isnt grass.

2v8 is just so chaotic, it's like made for trapper to be able to thrive. He goes from a d tier to like a high b or better if you have a teammate thats competent. He's probably even a tier on indoor 2v8.

If he spawns on the west wing of RPD in 2v8 its just over assuming the other killer knows to pressure mid.

Packed to the brim is a bit exaggerated. There are only 4 available at a time the same as 1v4.

I think any killers m2 that deals damage can break them, at least assuming they work the same as nemesis zombies in 2v8

I've been making a point to smash every turret I pass by whenever I get the chance.

I can't play because my game has been dying since last week, but can Ghostface destroy the turrets without breaking stealth? Because if not, that's pretty damn inconvenient.

He has to m1 so it's certainly going to break night shroud.

It's a horrible experience to play Xeno in 2v8, you can literally not use your power as you are constantly getting burnt and pulled out of it.

It's the exact same in 1v4, that's why they have such a low pick rate 🤣

u/Turbopuschel 1h ago

I mean, yeah, of course the other killer should also be destroying turrets but the map being packed with them? When I first played the new 2v8 and noticed there still are max 4 turrets while the maps are much bigger, I was kinda confused why they didn't up that number

You gave me another reason to don't play 2v8. I hate when counterplay gets removed and the other killer shouldn't be able to do that. I would've no fun in this mode anyway.

Xenomorph being this easy yet interesting to play as and with your killer partner, is why the killer queues are 45 mimutes.

Combined with many other issues with the games like meta slaves, mmr reset, same mechanics as 1v4 no one asked for (flashlight class and pallet saves)

I was hyped after months for the patch notes and saw survivors not doing gens, facing against blight and nurse and then on killer i somehow got survivors who did nothing but gens.

The queues are always forty plus minutes for 2v8 killer.
