Are you enjoying the lack of fog?

I mean while I love the change, I don't know if it should stay… for as long as scratchmarks are bugged though!(scratchmarks haven't changed since last patch)

    I am loving it. Makes the maps look nice and clear. Hated the haziness,

    No, if you look at some of the old maps, they had atmosphere and immersion. A lot more fog too.

    Most maps are incredibly washed out in color and have almost no fog. And most people don't even run the offering for more fog. Wish it'd be reverted.

    It looks awful without the fog.

    No, they need to bring back the fog.

    The game looks better without it, but the worst is that blurry graphic effect in-game. I just can't stand it

    Fog and particle effects need serious work in this game. I prefer maps with less fog and smoke and fire and dust particles because then the game performs better. I can play the game like someone with more than an hour's playtime when I can actually hear it, and I can't hear it when the PS4 fans are going at jet-engine speeds unless I turn my headphones up to ear-bleeding volumes.

    BHVR needs to either tone down all their silly atmospheric VFX or they need to add a separate setting beyond simply "Graphics quality" and let people choose "VFX quality" (other games do it, and it's freaking fantastic). Less fog is a start, but it's not nearly enough.

    that looks terrible.

    fog concealed bad graphics and made the maps atmospheric. now it all looks naked and you can see how bad it is way easier

    Yes. The less smog the better.

    I don't have a problem with both, I love seeing more but it wasn't too bad with fog ether. If I could change something with the grafics I'd like that auras priotize over hook-bubbles, it's so annoying to not see anything for it feels like 10 seconds (well I guess that's more gameplaywise than grafic) xD

    The Fog is one of DBD's most recurring characteristics. I've seen a lot of people saying the most recent licences are killing the games identity, but I'd argue changes like this are far worse. It just doesn't feel the same without it.

    All it does is make the game harder for Stealth Killers, and look bad to boot. Bring the Fog back.

    I want more fog and also darker maps :) Imo the coldwindfarm maps for example miss the mark when it comes to horror :(

    It took me way too long to work out what was different about the maps 😅
