    Colorblind options are very much needed. Got a friend of mine hooked on the game but he can't see scratch marks or auras as killer very well due to red/green color blindness. Colorblind options would be a great help.

    I hope they'll address it soon. Finding gens and hooks in the new Yamaoka map is even harder than in Haddonfield or Autohaven.

    Colorblind mode would be amazing. I know a few people who struggle without it so I hope they do add this soon.

    They kind of did. It wasn't in the current plans but if we keep it alive who knows.

    Having the same 5 people bump a thread isn't going to help. Try getting actual data on how many colorblind people play the game; stuff that'll show them this isn't being requested by just 0.000001% of the players.

    Jesus Christ here we go. Yes people are bumping the thread but many individual users have commented on the thread. Please take your "helpful suggestions" somewhere else.

    I'm not surprised you're rejecting something that might actually help - you're only interested in doing enough to make sure you feel good about yourself, even if it doesn't help anyone.

    @Orion most of players basically ignore dbd forums, colorblind or not. I think there's nothing wrong with bumping the thread.

    I'm not saying there's anything wrong with it, I'm just saying that it doesn't help much either. If you want a company to know that a feature is requested by a significant portion of its customers and potential customers, you don't create an echo chamber; you get data that shows them this is a highly requested feature.

    I'd say a feature that SHOULD have been in the game from day one isn't somthing we should have to REQUEST. and anywho, everyone knows that @Orion is right about EVERYTHING and anyone who says otherwise is just a stupid survivor main. Gotcha. Now I can go back go ignoring u. 

    Well read what i said on discord so you know how i really feel.

    You can read about it online for yourself. Around 8.5% of the world population is colorblind. Most video games already have colorblind assist settings because they understand how crippling it is for us. 

    With that being said. The lack of understanding and vague response from the dbd team is laughable.

    The issue is that not all of those people play the game. I share your sentiment - this is a simple UI change that shouldn't be put on the back burner since it's just as gamebreaking for the colorblind as any bug - but I doubt the devs will take action unless they can see, in actual terms, how big the demand is.

    See the above fill out the survey and when it asks what would you add or change use that opportunity.
