I have a 15% killrate on The Twins, apparently. 😭 Except this seems to only have happened due to the abandon feature.

They've said they'll boost the presence of these maps which is a little bit insane considering some of the AWFUL design issues that both RPDs have.

Frank Stone skin for Trapper is cancelled. Will still come to DBD in some way but they didn't clarify. Very baffling and I have no idea if they're just dropping it quietly and will only be some charm/player icon or if they'll turn him into an actual fully fledged Killer (but I sincerely doubt that)

You'll be able to even switch them mid-game which means there might be a whole new strategy of adjusting the scratch mark color based on what map you get. The intro video will also not play after you've watched it once so that launching the game is faster, which is another welcome change.

Autohaven realm maps are getting brighter which is a massively welcome change. This realm of maps was unnaturally darker than almost everything else. I'm not sure about the new skybox and fog but I'm 100% in favor of making these maps brighter.

Trickster rework is confirmed to still be in development. Devs said he'll be "visually very cool" and teased the word "STYLE" in their presentation. Fingers crossed.

The changes themselves seem appropriate but I still she's not close to being in a great spot.

Resolve bar will now be visible to all players. This is a great change which I wish they had introduced even earlier. They've also adjusted the facecamp meter to be slower but at a greater range. It will build up faster if the Killer stays within range for long.
