Best idea for Dead by daylight

Make the sun rises when the match lasts long enough. It will reveal survivors’ dark hiding spots for killer to see as form of punishment for not progressing the game so it serves it’s name as “Dead by daylight” which will be so cool!

it can also be considered as mechanic which means you could make perks that gets activated/deactivated when the sun rises or something a lot creative!


Possible issues:

#1 “some maps are already bright enough to not be considered _Night_ such as dead dawg saloon and Ormond?”— Well, they could let the match starts with Night version of these maps, they are already shown on how would they look like at night (as a matter of fact, all realms are supposed to be at Night! even the saloon but for some reason they ended up being brighter) and when the sun is supposed to rise it could turn into bright as what we have now!

#2 “Midwhich Elementary School is supposed to be taken at the Otherworld which is always dark?” — Except, Midwich can turn into morning-foggy just like the game:

Inside the school should be bright enough to see everything. Outside the school should be bright but foggy. Plus, it is a callback from the franchise! (yay more references! ^^)


Late disclaimer: this is nothing more than an idea and just for fun! Thank you!

    My problem with the idea is that it's dead by daylight not revealed by daylight and then dead...

    They used to have an offering that made maps brighter/darker. It was removed due to them having to reshade and change the shadows for every single map. I don't think this will happen for similar reasons.

    That aside, it would be a cool addition

    It is counted as time, as you will die “by daylight” (AKA once the rises, it is over for you) and since everyone would assume they are the hero who would last that long, it would be interesting and add more depth into the game.

    Plus, Revealed by daylight and then dead is better than no meaning at all, am I right?
