New Game Modes

So during the recent player survey, BHVR floated ideas for some additional game modes. I was curious what everyone thought of them. What were your favorites or which ones do you think are really missing the mark? Do you have any other fun ideas you think they're sleeping on?

Personally, I really like the sound of Tag, 5v5 and 2v8. 5v5 sounds really interesting and like it would be a good place to sweat a little. Tag sounds like pure chaotic fun, and 2v8 sounds like it could be cool, though I am skeptical they could balance it.

On the other side, I feel like Giant mode sounds like a boring novelty, and I don't understand the purpose of a Hide & Seek mode where auras are revealed every couple of seconds. That sounds like a waste of time to me, but maybe I'm missing something.

As for a mode I think they're sleeping on, I think that Hide & Seek would be more fun if Survivors goal was to cross a map without being spotted. If you get spotted you're out, and if more than one survivor makes it, then time is the tie breaker. Maybe with more than one Killer to make it even spicier.

Also here are the ones BHVR included
