Coldwind farms are too bright

I don't know about anyone else but its just way too bright. It's hard to see un-repaired gens as a killer and i have a hard time seeing hooked survivors when I play survivor. I don't have my my brightness turned up or anything like that. Anyone else have this issue? I mean, its really hard to see aura's.

    Deaddawg saloon, absolutely. That is a really well lighted map. I absolutely hate playing coldwind now. Everything is the same color. The corn is the same color as the sky and so is the ground. Literally cant see gen auras as a killer.

    Yeah, personally I love the rework, but I hate that it's in the daytime now as I used to love old Coldwind (also because we used to get it so often, so it was one of the first maps, along with Autohaven that I knew really well - and we still get Coldwind a lot now after the rework, seemingly more often than other maps). I appreciate that they went for a different time of day to mix things up, but I think they did it on the wrong map - with it being so bright, I almost feel that it's harder to spot someone hiding in the cornfield as killer and as survivor, I again feel that it's somehow harder to hide in the cornfield with it being so bright. I think if they did it on say Haddonfield or maybe some of the Badhams (for the different Badhams they could maybe randomize the time of day as well if possible, or if not, make say 2 in daytime, 2 at night and 1 at dusk).

    Playing against Freddy actually helps on this map when you’re in dream world lol. I remember when this map first launched, I kept questioning if the killer was running knockout since I could rarely see my downed teammates.

    The map is fine, and I play with extra brightness. If you can't see properly then it's your game/monitor or maybe you need your eyesight checked.

    Agreed, it could do with a tone down.
