Loading Screen Idea

So it just struck me, that most of our players have houndres if not thousands of hours. So those loading screen hints are more than useless after a certain time.

Now my idea: Why not replace it with a information screen of the other peoples perks/loadout (survivors can only see survivors loadout).

This would help solo survivors greatly.

What do you think?

Killers could get a nice landscape view or pictures of cute puppies. Just to compensate for the upcoming terror.

    Not a bad idea. Survivors and killers should also be able to see the layout of the map. Too much?

    @CarterMcGee2003 a map layout for both sides. Showing gens to the survivors and totem spots to the killer, where he can choose where to place his hex totems.

    No. This game is meant to be a game where survivors have no information about the other survivors. Will they save you? Will they abandon you? Are they running adrenaline, or will this gen done pop the killer's NOED and doom my ally? This concept is already broken by SWF.

    Killer, as the power role, might have a map of gens, though he can't see any perks except his own, and isn't shown his spawn sight, so he'd have to orientate himself.

    As Killer, i'd like to have a top-view of the map being build.

    @AetherBytes but the devs aim towards giving solo survivors the same information overflow SWF has.

    @Tsulan should be the opposite, break down SWF. An SWF that knows what they're doing is nigh OP. We don't need solo survivors being able to do this as well, otherwise it just becomes hell.

    I had an idea where they could just have a community stockpile of art they could just show per loading screen.

    @AetherBytes i know, it should be the opposite. I really miss the old times, when i actually hat to pay attention to know if the survivor was downed by NOED or not. Or that some killer perk is affecting me. Now i get a big red sign...
