Kill Switch update: We have temporarily Kill Switched the Forgotten Ruins Map due to an issue that causes players to become stuck in place. The Map will remain out of rotation until this is resolved.

Please change the lights in Haddonfield - potential epilepsy issue

I don't know when this started, because I don't think it's been like this since the map rework, but maybe I only noticed it recently. There's a flickering bulb in the House of Pain gen room and the effect on the room's lighting is extreme. I'll put a link to a clip here.

Behaviour: "We had to remove flashlight clicking to prevent epileptic seizures." : deadbydaylight (reddit.com)

I have no history of photosensitivity and a high tolerance to flashing lights and I still have trouble with this. Tried to focus my camera on the gen only, but even that didn't work to stop the rapid screen flashing and eventually I just started to repair the gen with my eyes closed. It's really unpleasant and I can only imagine how dangerous this can potentially be for someone who's actually vulnerable to it.
