Is the inside of new Haddonfield houses pitch dark for anyone else?
Was playing on the PTB and couldn't see a thing in the new houses in Haddonfield. The killer and other survivors said that it was pitch dark in the houses for them too. Has this happened to anyone else?
EDIT: Took some screenshots on a later match:
(You can barely see the locker in front of me)
(Inside of the Myers house. There is a gen in this room, Cheryl's looking right at it)
(Another screenshot of a room in the Myers house. You can't even see Cheryl)
(It's really dark in this room, you can only see with the light shining in the wall)
(In one of the Haddonfield basements. I couldn't even see the Legion coming because it was so dark in there, hence why I'm in the middle of getting downed)
I hope this gets fixed before the PTB goes live because the survivors nor the killer can see a thing in these houses.

Some areas are pretty dark. I think it's awesome, adds to the scare factor. Imagine a Michael stalking you from the dark.

Yes super hard to see for me as well

Havent seen it pitch black (like the game glitched out to be every now and again) but it is darker in some areas

The insides are pretty bad. Sometimes you dont even see your own character, not to mention you dont see objects (i just saw some lockers just because i got the prompt for vault), and to find an open window is a pain in the ass.

Darker the better.

Yeah but when it gets to the point where no one can see a thing it becomes a problem.

I don´t know if this is intentional so that you can hide again in the dark?
But it seems maybe a bit too dark.

Yeah, that's what happened to me. Couldn't see lockers or gens in most of the rooms.
During the one match, the Legion I went against said that they kept losing the survivors because of how dark the houses were. My teammates that match also said that they couldn't see a thing in the houses either.

I kind of hope it goes to live so I can see how it is on console. Hotfix it after first week but I just want to see it myself.

Its definitely has dark areas with those areas probably being the darkest in the game (I think). Still though, I never had any problems seeing anything so could it possible its on the user end?
I have been craving more atmospheric/moody maps so I really like the way it looks. If it turns out it is too dark hopefully we get a happy middle ground and the devs don't go to the other extreme.

The other survivors and killer said that the inside of the houses were pitch dark for them too, so I don't think it's a problem with my PC/game. Don't get me wrong, I love the dark atmosphere of the map, it feels like it was pulled straight out of Halloween. It just needs brightened up slightly just so you can see objects. It doesn't need to be too extreme, just enough to where you can see.

I think it's a bug, it's too dark.

I don't know if I missed it or you added it in the edit, but that second pic I can actually agree that it might be too dark. The other pics (like the first) I can still easily see the locker, but that gen in the second one seems to be completely black even with a lamp right next to it. If they could up the radius of that light source it would help alleviate the problem while not ruining the mood by just upping the overall brightness.
