Increase The Plague's FOV to compensate for her weapon taking such a huge chunk of the screen.

I find whenever I play as plague that the incest burner always feels like it's in the way. I'm trying to look around for survivors and the incest burner feels and looks so clunky and unnecessarily in view.

    Or just make the weapon look smaller while keeping the same hitbox.

    PS: lmao incest burner.

    I agree, it takes up a lot of space. I also feel this way about Wraith's base weapon, but at least he has different weapon cosmetics.

    All killers (save for knifey bois/gals, and Nurse if she's using a weapon with a big hole in it) have weapons that take up a large portion of their screens. It almost seems intentional, like they want to give killers the illusion of an FOV but cut off the lower right quarter of the screen as a blindspot for survivors to use against them, and as a major blindspot in the middle of the screen during the wipe animations to give survivors a better chance of escape after being hit (at least Plague doesn't have the wipe animation). This is why with all killer I have that use large weapons, I either use the slimmest weapon cosmetic I can find (the cane for doctor, gun for billy, blade for wraith, machete for trapper, etc), or equip shadowborn. TBH though, I'd rather have all of them lower the weapon to only the bottom right corner of the screen and have them do the wipes in the bottom 4th of the mid screen. Visual Tracking can already be difficult enough, but having the killers own weapons hinder their vision like that is really unnecessary and often times frustrating.

    We could really do with removing the weapon from the screen. You know what Killer you’re playing and you really don’t need to see the weapon the entire match.

    They put in extra work to change how your model looks for yourself - your character literally holds their arm up to have the weapon on the screen, but you can only see it with shadows, and Survivors don’t see it.

    They should just standardise it with all that in mind. Considering the noises each Killer makes, the power icon, and in some cases the specific perk loadout you have for them, we really don’t need to see the weapon. The weapon should only ever be on-screen when swinging or wiping the blade and that’s it.
