Lights Out should be available 24/7 365 days a year, more overkill and more to the point.
Suggestions? Glad you asked,
Make it available indefinitely and remove auras and the UI (almost) completely.
Nothing to feed info to the player other than sound and line of sight. Only make hook auras visible for the killer (+ located gens). No survivor UI to see teammate info. No way to see or know where someone is dying/hooked other than directional sound and screams, etc.
Get rid of the music, let the ambiance and creepy silence do its thing.
Let sacrificed survivors remain in the trial as half eaten ghost bots whos only purpose is to creep the sh*t out of the remaining survivors with jumpscares and whatnot.
Do not allow players to queue into this mode while in a swf, maybe as a duo to still be able to play with a friend. Make it feel like a hopeless, solitary mode where you're pretty much screwed and likely to die after getting jumpscared out of your chair.
And the overkill part, if even possible to implement as a feature: Make the map shift a bit mid trial. Make it feel more like an otherwordly being's entrails rather than a physical, "real" place. Put a structure there, get rid of that one. Poof, suddenly this wall has a hole in it. Who put that slightly face-shaped tree there?
It'd feel like playing a horror game again, and the scary factor would make it very, very fun in my humble opinion.
IK I'm late. 😌

I wish flashlights could be used to light Survivors way through the dark in the mode.

Also no Killer red stain

There sure are a lot of killer portraits in here talking about making a mode that was already horrible for survivors even more horrible. 😨

Seems out of touch doesn’t it? I think this thread, the people in it, and the responses are a perfect example of why this game is bleeding players.

Everyone knows that lights out is a disadvantage for survivors. Please be aware of this and enjoy it.
In fact, Survivor play has been well-received by players who have become accustomed to the daily disadvantages of playing Killer, saying that it was very exciting and interesting.

Honestly I'd even like to see the insta-blind flashlights come back for that mode specifically in some capacity. Doesn't need to be something with a lot of charges, but enough to make it blind once or twice and make it a very rare chest item that only appears once per trial.

Lights out would’ve been better if killers with in built tracking were disabled

Survivors are supposed to bleed.

I main survivor. Yoichi, Meg, Renato. I just have a Nurse portrait because that's the killer I play when I play killer.

I also main Yoichi. I almost never see him in trials (as killer or survivor but if I see him as killer I always let him go) unless I pick him. Good to know he’s got someone else appreciating him.

And killers are nothing short of a menace. 😏

I can agree with that.
