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.

Notification bubble when gen is done and gates are power could be better.

As killer when a gen is done a big notification bubble comes up same when gates are power. Sure its not the worse in the world and experienced killers are used to play arround it, i just notice it doesnt let you see nothing arround for a couple of seconds and that could have an easy fix. i think for the new players changes like this make a lot of difference. Losing a huntress game cause you can't see survivors right in front of you 5 times a game seems unfair.

Easiest and fastest solution just put a switch off visual effect notification option, thats it. I will definetely would turn it off. Sound on the other hand i do think its nice to know a gen just pop and if i want to know which gen i just would look arround and realize, i dont need a big bubble to know.

For the more newer players i would suggest a visual change and understandable this would need animation change and would take a while to fix. gen could switch from red to a different colour and then off completely while the sound alert is going. So you can see everything arround the gen if you are near and realize is that gen easily if you are not close. (same with gates)

    If i am not mistaken the bubble was even "shadow nerfed". I cannot remember being mentioned in the patch notes but some patches ago, the bubbles did last something like 3-5 seconds but now are like 8 seconds or so, and it doesn't make sense.

    I don't know if it is a bug or it was intentional, but i would like if it was reverted. Hell, even a lower duration so newer people can notice would be fine, but you already see both exit gates anyways and the bubble ends giving more harm than good.
