Profile avatars for in game
instead of the gray profile person, could we have the actual character you are playing in the UI in game?

No. This means you have to pay attention to who you're hitting.

Was just thinking it because ghost face to see which character is actually exposed.

And who cares? As if this would change anything in terms of skill.
This would be a good QoL change imo

The devs won’t do it most likely because they would have to make new healthy, injured and dying icons for all the survivors. It is a neat idea though that I hope they take into consideration.

I wouldn't mind this, would be a pretty good QOL change.

I'd say just put the survivors name under the username.

Generally speaking, the UI is kept as clean as possible (i.e. not an overload of information that you don't need) and is consistent throughout the game (i.e. all icons fit the same theme, all HUD elements are consistent throughout the game). Character portraits would be a little out of place. They would be fully rendered images among all of the stylized icons.
This is much more doable. This would maintain the styling of the game while still providing the same information. You could also bring up the menu briefly to see who's playing which survivor, though that is easier said than done if you're already chasing someone.
I'll go ahead and stick this in wishlist.

There's often more than one player playing a particular survivor so I'm not sure how names underneath would be useful. SWF teams would just all use the same survivor to avoid giving the killer any information so this would only end up affecting solo survivors.

@Peanits I have a solution that could be doable as well...
Let me give an example..
This is the original:
Which is nice to keep the killer from guessing who's who... but...
Here's what I think he was proposing:
So... Instead of the facebook User placeholder for the healthy state it would instead show the survivor's face and it would still keep the same aspect to the game.
So you can know who you injured or not. And plus if you're the killer you're going to find them anyway.
So if you had:
Survivor 1 as Feng Min it would show Feng Min's face.
and if you had Survivor 2 as Laurie it would show her face ect. until they were injured and/or downed.
I believe what he was proposing is do-able and I hope this spreads why I believe it is.
(yes I used perk Icons to prove my point lol don't judge..)
But I think it is do-able and is a slight change.

why not. I think it would give a little bit extra something to the game. I like it

what about the achievement image for each adept survivor instead of a rendered and colorized image?
