Killfeed is hard to follow

Warhammer 40,000: Darktide Gameplay Feedback
1

Hello dear FS, community,

i found the killfeed hard to follow. In VT2 you had small pictures of what got killed, which i found pretty intuitive and easy to pick up what happens during playing. In DT the killfeed is a small message in the top left, which i find harder to follow when the pressure from the horde mounts. Although i certainly need some time to ‘rewrite my vt-habits’, i think symbols (or maybe another solution) would be objectively better than plain text.

Thank you and best regards.

Edit:
ideas from my fellow darktide enjoyers:

  • killfeed needs accessibility option for colorblind
  • change position on screen

I agree that the killfeed could use pictures, but for somewhat different reasons. All there is now is character name colors, but with colors changing from match to match it can be hard to keep track of who got kills. It’s a more minor thing, but it’s nice to be able to check that the kill I just got was on a special/elite without having to read a name, especially since some colors like purple are harder to read against a dark background.

There’s a kill feed? Never noticed, but them am Ogryn. But color coded? Hope there’s an accessibility option for that. There’s no excuse for lack of colorblind support these days.

I would like there to be an option to change it to the top right of the screen instead of top left.

Totally agree:
Who am I?
Who ngngngx is?
Who grub glomer is?
Icons (like they are in latest V2) provide much better info.
