Don't really think this was the greatest addition in a gamemode like this.

The halloween fog was added as a major part of the halloween themed update. The fog will be removed on the 23rd of November when the Halloween Event ends.
Yes, a blanket use of fog on all maps isn't appropriate for the original map designs of those maps. But as a temporary thing, gamemode wide and in the context of a theme, I think it's worth.

I will admit, one thing i have not made super clear, is that you can use your flashlight - by pressing f (or 'impulse 100' in the console, if you have it unbinded) - to increase visibility in the fog, a bit.
Durring testing the fog visibility was increased to it's current state.
Are there any specific maps you found were visibility for deaths is an issue?

If you are aiming directly at a player through the fog their name will appear on your sceen. - Assuming you haven't disabled that in the F2 menu.

halloween ended on the 1st of november mate

The release of the Deathrun Halloween update being when it was, is something that was completely out of Kanna’s control, due to the issues within the community team at the time we never had the availability to help him test the update until it was gone Halloween however, Kanna has had the update ready to go a week or so before Halloween and had we actually been able to get everyone on to test it would have been released on time.

Probably not fair to take that out on Kanna is all I’m saying.

Nobody is taking anything out on Kanna he's the owner of the Deathrun server who else do you contact/discuss an issue about an update with? The mistiming of the update is whatever but you could have added all of the Halloween decor and removed the fog, or simply removed the fog after Halloween day. *IF* Kanna needs Community team permission to remove something like the fog which many people clearly take issue and is nothing but aesthetic I think that is a little silly. Nobody is going at anyone it's just a suggestion.

I think you’re missing the point of what I was getting at, I was simply replying to the comment that the Halloween update was released after Halloween. As for your point of removing the fog, it is literally only a temporary feature, if Kanna was to accept this suggestion I’m sure the soonest it would be removed is the next update anyhow. Changes were made to the fog overall and Kanna also went out of his way to individually check all the maps and even disable it in some cases for deaths.

Regardless of if I missed your point about it's release date it changes nothing about what's said about the feature in general. It's temporary for the next 11 days it's making certain maps astronomically harder and some maps nearly impossible to play and it adds nothing. Is there any real purpose to it at all? Aside from the "Spooky" theme which ended like 11 days ago. If it's temporary and if Kanna was to accept it why can't you just be rid of it then? Also when you say "disabled it for deaths in some cases" does that mean that the runners have it? If so that's insanely unfair as well.
