The Fog and Darkness from Lights Out need to be implemented permanently somehow as a setting

Hi,

I like the fog and darkness from that mode as it creates such a nice dark horror atmosphere.. could those two aspects be somehow permanently added as a "filter" setting or something? If I have it enabled for example, only I am affected on my game in a match everybody else sees the game as they want. It would be such a waste if this wasn't utilised in any way. And I am only strictly talking about the fog and darkness - perks, TR, etc would be the same as always of course

Here is an example of a filter setting from the Resident Evil 4 remake:

    I would not want to force this on the other players in the lobby.. I can imagine that a lot of people do not like the extra fog and darkness

    Thanks for the feedback. I understand what you mean, and it's all about the perspective of how far away the darkness extends. If we consider the current Lights Out Darkness as the effect when all 5 players use the largest Murky Reagent bottle (the purple one), then envisioning 1/5 of Lights Out Darkness prompts us to discuss the size and impact it could have as an interesting addition to the game. Treating it as a visual barrier similar to Lights Out allows us to explore its potential, ensuring extreme examples are kept to a minimum. Players who prefer a clearer visibility can always use the brown clear reagent bottle to dismantle it.
