... yeah anyone?

i can't get that out of my mind, everytime i am on this map i think the same:

"damn i can't see #########"


maybe it's just me, but it's really dark isn't it?

i actually tried to adjust contrast and lightning in my gpu settings, but tbh i don't wanna mess to much with it since thats a bit tryhard and i only have a problem on this specific map.

    To me, these maps are not too dark at all. Now, the swamp maps, on the other hand...

    No, they're actually quite bright.

    You should of seen the original release of that map

    I'm so blind I always play with full brightness so I personally haven't noticed. I have seen on the other hand that Crotus Penn is much more bright and visible now which I'm happy it is.

    I just hate how the lightning on this map looks.It's weird.

    The only map i'm glad to go against Freddy because the Dream World actually makes Autohaven look good.

    I wouldn't say it's too dark. Quite bright in my opinion. I can see much further and I can spot hiding survivors very easily. The most dark map I can get is the Western one. If blendette squats in the bush, she's invisible

    I main Freddy, brightness is never an issue... except Old Freddy on Lery's, which was so DAMN bright!

    yeah dude, I have the same thing, I adjust the brightness and still she's even darker night maps, lol

    when I play the killers, survivors of a right during the chase may be lost

    Maybe it's not so much the darkness, but the fact that the sky is so bright that the contrast of the shadows is creating the illusion of darkness?

    Might be worth experimenting with turning down the contrast and see if that helps some of you.

    This is like the 500th thread about autohaven being too dark so yeah there is definitely a lot of players that agree with you.

    I find it very hard to track survivors in prestige cosmetics as they camo with the dark walls very easily.

    For me the autohaven is way too dark as a survivor and as a killer. And it's darker on high graphics than low, which is weird too. It's sad, autohaven used to be my favorite realm, but nowadays I hate playing in it, because I just can't see. I understand the game is a horror game but some of the maps are just ridiculously dark, so badly, that it affects the game play.
