Would thing be better if killers had a minimap?

How would you guys think if killers were given a built-in minimap that ONLY shows generators/totems/abilities i.e. traps?

I think this will help killers with loops, map control and gen pressure.

I think it'll be a neat feature for struggling killers right now.

    I like where your head is at, but I don't see what this could offer for Killer when you can simply look around instead.

    You can already see those things without the need of a mini-map. What does the mini-map really do, in that case?

    This would be more useful for survivors.

    I'd rather make basement hooks always visible as a kinda of true north than a mini map.

    Not necessary imo

    You can see behind yourself on a mini-radar but have to do a 180 to look behind yourself in first person view.

    A radar probably doesn’t need to be part of the base game, but I could maybe see it being a perk of some sort. 🤷‍♂️

    And for people above wondering what the advantage of radar is, it allows the killer to track things not currently in their field of view and to better judge distances. For example, how many times have you seen an explosion or generator completion and the halo of it blocks your line of sight to anything else in that part of the screen and makes it harder to accurately judge the distance? Or there’s a sound off screen and you spend a couple seconds swiveling around looking for it? If those things appeared as dots on a radar then it’s totally unambiguous where it came from.

    I’m not saying it’s a huge benefit, but I can see why it is a benefit, maybe even good enough to be a perk depending on how much information the radar has.

    Heck no…please not another random thing taking up screen space!

    If so, make it optional to toggle on/off.

    Tbh I don't see a point. Maps in this game are relatively small and the points of interests are already highlighted.
