New aura system
I want to suggest a option to change the color, saturation and brightness of the auras because i can't see anything with this "new aura system".
Killer: Far gen
Survivor: Bond very close
Bond close
Bond medium and far
Hooked Survivor
More screenshots showing how bad are the auras would be appreciated.
Edit: More screenshots provided by the people in the thread:
Thanks.

ARE TERRIBLE!
Please please please change them back.

I agree. They look so awful.

That is the idea. they essentially deleted aura s from the game without doing it.
They nerfed all aura read perks and bbq in one hit lol! On the survivor side they actually beefed up auras and made them more visible.
14 -
I run kindred 100% of the time.... I want to vomit anytime someone is hooked. It just looks SO bad.
16 -
I like their style, but they're really hard to see compared to the old ones. Maybe just make them brighter and thicker?
13 -
yeah, when I saw them I was like "Rip colorblind players even more".
17 -
Oh have a look what they did to killer aura. If you ever play killer 😐️
5 -
No they didn't. Kindred is impossible to use. The figures are so tiny.... I just played vs a legion.. was hardly visible by the hook.
🤢
7 -
I'm playing on low and... I might as well not run any aura perks at all. There's just.... nothing...
6 -
Yeah, I can barely see gens and survivors though. I don't like it at all.
13 -
Same here. It's hard to tell who everyone is now because they look so terrible lol. I couldn't even identify Billy with Kindred when I was across the map lol.
5 -
can somebody provide a screenshot of these new auras? I haven't seen them yet
7 -
But also:
This is WHY we need to play PTB more. cause by experience from other games the 'high end' players doing betas rarely point out (bleep) like that to the devs...
2 -
Screenshots for those of us at work pretty please?
0 -
just imagine a match without any auras, neither on killer or survivor side
3 -
I am red-green colorblind and yeah I can confirm that these are horrible. Stuff is near invisible.
9 -
You can't see auras on Ormond now...
The new auras are awful.
8 -
It might look good here (because it's zoomed in), but in game I can barely see the hooked survivor's aura as well as the other survivors and killer with Kindred.
11 -
It also made trapper worthless, and object even more powerful.
7 -
You never really could. Either way yeah another reason to hate Ormond.
0 -
Yeah, auras look horrible now.
4 -
######### did they do? That's horrendous.
3 -
First match as killer had me to a double take at the new auras.
I play on low and I had a moment where I wondered 'wait, I don't run any hex perks wth... oh wait, those are the gens WTH'
on low the auras are barely existent now :(
3 -
That's fine and dandy but I play xbox so I can't give input....
0 -
They don't change anything from the ptb, at least not in a big way. Change doesn't mean reduce the numbers a little. Change means scrap the idea and think of something else.

Holy sht. Can't see a damn thing.
I remember a time when auras were really bad on Ormond and it got fixed, but these new auras are way worse on this already dumpster map.
It seems to be pretty terrible for Trapper as well.
Jesus Devs, can you guys be a little less adamant in ######### over killers for once?
Sounds, now auras. What's next?
Gosh, I hope they revert it back.

@SpaceCoconut there's another thread with a photo. It was absolutely horrible.
2 -
https://forum.deadbydaylight.com/en/discussion/175508/what-the-hell-is-this-aura-reading#latest not sure if I did this right. Hopefully it'll link to the post with the screen cap.

Yeah this is awful the new changes make auras (especially ones from bbq) extremely difficult to see. What were the devs thinking, and if it wasn't bad enough now we most likely will need to wait for the next killer for it to be changed if that even happens at all.
@Peanits @Almo Can y'all or any dev for that matter please say something about this, staying silent about issues just hurts the community more.
5 -
I don't understand why they decided to change something that had worked fine for years.
22 -
oh good lord that's awful. why did they do this?
1 -
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
11 -
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"
3 -
Is that a downed survivor or the size of the brain of the person who decided auras should be so small?
26 -
Not true. They suck ass for survivors too.
8 -
Probably the later.
1 -
View as killer starting a match....
Survivor with kindred is uploading now to xbox live... 1 minute (or 2)
4 -
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?
6 -
Why did they do this? The auras were fine as they were.
13 -
These new auras are much harder to see, could we please make them more bright ?
3 -
Neither
0 -
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.
1 -
The only reason the spirit was visible in the basement is because of her hair....
7 -
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 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.
2 -
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.
3 -
Anyone using Deerstalker? Before this talk they change aura reading, I have issues with Deerstalker. So imma guess it's even worse now?
1 -
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?
4 -
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.
