Does anybody like it at all? I see people saying they don't like it but never see any explanation why they don't? To me its just too distracting, too much going on. I really hope they don't change it

    True, I think there at least should be an option to keep the old one of you prefer to use it. The portraits of the different survivors is nice though, I think that should maybe be a permanent change but hey, that's probably wishful thinking

    I like the portraits that is a welcomed change but everything else is just uneeded. It would be great if we could chose though

    I think its all over the place. Dislike it. No one asked for the change but they did it anyway. And as for the new player animations, they're really bad.

    Really? There's legit a thread on this already and people explaining exactly why its so bad.

    Everything is in a different spot, gen # is at the top center? Why?

    The character/player panel is on the top left (right in the way of where possible killer can come from), why?

    The character/player panel is vertical instead of horizontal, why??

    The ONLY improvement is seeing which player is what character.

    'out with the old, in with the new' except the new is god damn awful and no one asked for it. Typical of them.

    And as far as being nice to the devs, no one should hold back and 'be nice' just b/c they get criticism. A lot of it is warranted and if people care more about hurting their feelings rather than being honest and bringing up concerns/fixing the game, then ofc we'll get no where.

    I don't like it - it makes the screen too cluttered and the information is the most inconvenient places to look at. Plus, appearance wise, it does not fit the Dead by Daylight's aesthetic and I feel it looks too much like a FPS game HUD (for example Apex Legends).

    I like the whole portrait thing, that's cool and everything, but it looks FAR too much like it's a mobile game ported to console/PC now. And when your injured? You can barely even tell (At least when I watched Otz) that someone is actually injured. And the hook compass thing? I mean, I assume it was a indicator pointing toward a hooked person when I saw it on Otz's video. What is this even for? Does the big yellow highlight not indicate: This is hook. You hooked person here. You walk away now. Like, I don't need a RPG type waypoint reminding me where my hooked survivor was. And if it isn't a hook compass, then this rant was for nothing. But overall, the new UI just looks clunky.
