Killer FOV increase

The Devs said (almost a year ago now) that they wanted to make shadowborn baseline in killers; that is, increase the FoV for killers so they aren't like horses with blinders on.

What ever happened to that? @not_Queen @Peanits

It'd make a huge difference on lower tier killers, especially wraith/leatherface

    or perhaps give us a slider between the default FOV and shadowborns FOV , but then what would shadowborn turn into?

    Wait, they really said they'd do that!?

    What happened? It would make things so much nicer than the way it is now without, in any way that I can see, being overpowered.

    They could either turn it back into what it used to be; a perk that lessens the darkness level of the map (which would be awesome against Claudettes on MacMillan), or they could change it like Tinkerer and give it a completely different tracking effect.

    I’ve been thinking this as well I agree, for would be nice to have baseline for killer. Probably a slider for people sensitive to motion sicknesses but it’d be great not to use a perk slot solely for fov.

    Perk should brighten maps like it used to (maybe an additional tracking effect?)

    Definitely implement the FOV slider.

    I myself am sensitive to motion sickness, and the FOV hasn't been that much of an issue. Except for one thing.

    I use Monitor & Abuse often, and the sudden change in FOV is pretty disorientating. So, maybe that can be changed in some way atleast?
