Hi Devs... As a colourblind person. PLEASE UNDO. Or put in good colourblind settings in the game. Cant see red auras AT ALL. Yellow is ok, but ugly as hell
Combine the fact I don't have perfect vision with the fact I do have some color blindness and this is game braking for me. The patch notes may as well have started with the phrase "If you have any sort of color blindness we don't want you playing our game. Find something else to play because we hate color blind people"
Can you see the person on the hook at the far end? Or the other person running near by? Kindred in use here.
You can barely see the slugged person.
Same. Only with a hooked person.
[Edit: Killer Aura. I sadly didn't get a screenshot during BBQ with my Freddy on Coldwind Farm, but I could barely see the Auras of BBQ through the corn. I was like: "Is that a gen or 2 Survivors healing eah other???"
End Edit]
Old Auras:
Please redo the change to the auras. THey are so hard to see now and look so weired. I play on medium btw.
[Edit 2 (sorry for that): I also noticed that the Auras get worse when you are in Freddy's Dream World.]
i don’t know why they changed auras all of a sudden. They’re awful, tiny, ugly. If anything, remove the damn blob after killer hooks someone. I think both sides could agree on that. Bring back the old auras

Is that a downed survivor or the size of the brain of the person who decided auras should be so small?
Not true. They suck ass for survivors too.
Probably the later.
View as killer starting a match....
Survivor with kindred is uploading now to xbox live... 1 minute (or 2)
Terrible change, BHVR
What in the hell are you guys thinking?
And how the hell was this not reprimanded in the PTB by BOTH Survivors and Killers?
Why did they do this? The auras were fine as they were.
These new auras are much harder to see, could we please make them more bright ?
Neither
Kindred didn't work at all for me last night at all. I tested this AM to and nope - same.
Also 1/2 the games with piggy - that little box you take the trps off with - not highlighted. Not a good game I can tell you lol.
Both of these issues were pre-patch. I'll have to wait to later to test again.
The only reason the spirit was visible in the basement is because of her hair....

I agree. Auras look absolutely hideous. For a while there I thought BBQ was bugged. All I see is survivor's skeleton blending well with the map.
I would like to see some more images if you people got some, I actually can't check it myself but jesus this ain't looking good.
I thought it was gonna be better when I checked on the patch notes.
Anyone using Deerstalker? Before this talk they change aura reading, I have issues with Deerstalker. So imma guess it's even worse now?
it's in the first post as hyperlinks.
Edit: i edited the post with the actual screenshots.
What was the reasoning behind the aura change when there wasn't anything wrong with them?
If I may throw in a fitting line from 'Dr Sunshine is dead':
If we can’t see each other then there’s no more use for hiding
I’ve decided I’ll abide it, why deny the color black?
I’m not a flower, not a solar-powered calculator.
Damn my eyes for seeing what’s not there.

Auras on the lower floor of the The Game. Good luck spotting Trapper's traps.
They're slightly better on the upper floor at least? Seems like they're pretty affected by the lighting/design of the map.
Damn right, can't tell how many times this blob hid the killer away from sight and pretty much closed a lot of distance on me, it gets annoying.
I hope that this can be an error
They look awful for Surv too. Dunno what you're on about there.
I’m red/green colourblind and can’t see the red auras at all. Sorry to any survivor teammates that get hooked, I have a constant third seal debuff.
So here they are. Personally I think they look alright.
Dear god, they look... unfinished. Like a placeholder highlight for some no-budget unity game.
They really really do need to add colorblind mode though, like this ######### is awful enough for people who aren't colorblind.
I mean, I understand the IDEA here: use the lighting on the models to create an aura, which might increase performance.
But it's a terrible designchoice and, as stated several times now, makes it neigh impossible to play when one's colorblind.
In short:
Please, please please revert it back to the flat-mapping auras from before and add a colorblind mode for auras and scratchmarks.
