I don't think anybody prefers the new voting system for casual, bring shoot to vote back.
Cons of the new system:
-too easy to be voted out or to cast a vote
-no excuse for not voting against a player
-noobs abuse the s*** out of it - half of casual games are ruined if you manage to be downed and have a vote called on you
-the votes required changes depending on the game size giving the infected the opportunity to vote too many players out per round (without innocent support)

Patch Notes

• Stamina has been removed during the day period. Our goal for this during the day was to encourage players to observe and play around more information, but players currently find it too frustrating. We are reviewing improvements that can be made in other areas to achieve this effect.
  
• The Vampire & Werewolf now have an extra 20 health, bringing them up to 220 total. This means a close range Camera flash & Knife will no longer instantly down them.
  
• There are now holes in the walls of the two new rooms in the ground floor of the Asylum for the Innocent to escape through.
  
• The Voting waypoint has been replaced with outlining downed players & highlighting that they can be voted on in their nametag.
  
• The ghost characters at night have had their visuals adjusted.
  
• The filling in of highlighted players has been reduced, making it easier to see more detail about those who are highlighted.
  
• When opening Deceit for the first time, the game will now open in native resolution borderless.
  
• A clearer notification has been added for when the Double Objective item is taken.
  
• Dodging a ranked game before it has properly started will now more consistently punish the player that is leaving.
  
• Dodging ranked games will now remove a flat 5 ELO and, if not in Diamond, a mark.
  
• Deceit User ID is now shown when hovering over players in your friends list.
  
• Several UI adjustments were made in-game and on the Main Menu.
  
• Adjusted some backend logic to improve server stability.
  
• [FIXED] Bleeding out players say they're 'REVIVING' in their nametag.
  
• [FIXED] A blood bag can occasionally spawn within a Generator on the ground floor of the Asylum.
  
• [FIXED] Players can be instantly downed if they walk into a specific area on the first floor of the Asylum.
  
• [FIXED] Players using Fullscreen & Alt+Tabbing during the loading screen will occasionally have their game freeze. This would cause long loading screens, that wouldn't successfully finish, for the other players in the game.
  

Patch Notes

• Our 4th Birthday Event has officially ended. Thanks for celebrating with us!
  
• Increased both the duration and regeneration rate of stamina during the day by 25%. We'll continue to keep an eye on how stamina feels during the day and adjust as necessary.
  
• Stamina now instantly regenerates when you respawn, or travel to the next floor.
  
• Interactions are now only cancelled when damaged by another player, rather than when hit.
  
• Resolved several map exploits in the Lumberyard.
  
• Added 2 new small rooms on the middle floor of the Asylum.
  
• Reduced the number of lights used in the Arctic map to improve performance.
  
• Increased the XP awarded for completing a Generator at night by 10.
  
• Hacking terminals, hitting targets & pulling levers now all award the player with XP.
  
• The 'Vote' waypoint no longer displays when using the Shoot-To-Vote option.
  
• Innocents are now warned that they're 'Making Noise' when sprinting during the day. As a reminder, whilst 'Making Noise' the Infected can see your position.
  
• Added location labels to the Arctic's minimap.
  
• Updated our translations thanks to our Community Translators.
  
• [FIXED] Players are occasionally re-downed if already downed when transitioning to the next floor.
  
• [FIXED] Several First Person animations didn't play as intended when reloading or jumping.
  
• [FIXED] Your Infected Partner's rotation on the minimap is incorrect.
  
• [FIXED] Occasionally Infected players can receive double blood for their partner being eliminated.
  
• [FIXED] Using Quick Chat will stop your current interaction and stop you from using Voice Chat.
  
• [FIXED] Players can't hear their own footsteps when playing a Female character.
  
• [FIXED] Players occasionally spawn under the map on the Lumberyard.
  
• [FIXED] The Arctic's minimap doesn't show all items available in that area, only that floor.
  

Changes Released Since Last Patch

• [FIXED] A server crash that happened around when someone used an Antidote.
  
• [FIXED] Occasionally certain regions will experience reduced matchmaking functionality.

Day Time Objectives

• Items now freely spawn across the floor without assignment: 18 in the first area, 12 in the second, and 6 in the third.
  
• Players can claim an objective by starting it, once you have done so you must complete it before moving on to the next.
  
• Players are limited to claiming a set amount of objectives per floor: 3 in the first area, 2 in the second, and 1 in the third.
  
• Players can view what items have been spawned, and what items are remaining, by using the ‘Q’ interface to view the minimap.
  

Night Time

• Generators now spawn across the map, power them at night to bring the lights back on and progress to the next area.
  
• Generators take a short 4 seconds to fix and give power. The amount of power required to turn on the lights is based on the area and players alive.
  
• The Terrors have had their health & speed reduced to account for these changes.
  

Minimap

Voting

• After starting a vote players will only be able to vote on the player that was downed, rather than both that player & the player that started the vote.
  
• The required amount of votes to eliminate someone is based on the area, or the number of players remaining, whichever is lower.
  
• Unchanged: In the Casual queue, you must interact with the body to trigger a vote, and all players can then vote from their HUD. This interaction can be interrupted if you take damage. In Custom games you can choose between this and shoot-to-vote.
  

Ranked

• The ‘shoot to vote’ option is now default in the ranked game mode.
  

Gunplay

• Aiming Down Sights (‘ADS’) has been dramatically improved, bringing new animations and several Quality of Life features.
  
• A setting has been added for adjusting your Mouse Sensitivity when in ADS.
  
• Reloading whilst holding ‘RMB’ will now correctly put you back into ADS at the end of the reload.
  
• Pressing ‘RMB’ whilst sprinting will now cause you to stop sprinting and enter ADS, instead of requiring you to manually let go of ‘Shift’.
  
• Waypoints are now translucent, instead of removed, when in ADS to enable players to see new waypoints that are popping up (for example when doing the target objective).
  
• Players no longer drastically react when hit by bullets, causing them to distort and becoming momentarily harder to hit.
  
• [FIXED] The gun doesn’t line up with the center of the screen for Female characters that are ADSing. This caused bullets to go higher than where you were aiming.
  

Movement Speed

• To improve the pace of the game and create more tension at night we have added a stamina system.
  
• Whilst running you will over time lose energy, when your energy is depleted you will still be able to sprint but slower.
  
• Stop sprinting to regenerate your energy over time.
  
• Make sure you’re saving your energy at night to get away from Terrors.
  
• To account for these changes, terrors are now slower.
  

Maps

• Each map has had more cover added to them, these can be used effectively in hiding from one another
  
• The Lumberyard has been reduced in size, to bring it more aligned with other maps.
  
• The bathroom has been removed from the ground floor of the Asylum.
  
• A large number of consumable and blood bag spawns have been moved.
  
• Fuse boxes now spawn in fixed locations.
  

Win Condition

• Players are now instantly killed if they’re executed and there is no antidote available to be used.
  
• The ‘bleeding out’ period, after being executed, has been increased to 30 seconds.
  
• Added a ‘Number Of Infected’ setting for Custom Games, you can choose between 2 (default), 1 or Random (either 1 or 2). If there is only 1 Infected they’ll be given extra blood as if their partner had been eliminated.
  
• The ‘Detective’ perk will now only show bounds of when blood was drunk, instead of exactly when it was drunk. The potential options that it’ll show are “less than 20 seconds ago”, “less than 40 seconds ago”, “less than a minute ago” and “over a minute ago”.
  
• The Tracker now lasts 60 seconds, but the information is only shown to you.
  
• The travel time on Vents has been reduced by a couple of seconds. They will also now show you the position and progress of the generators whilst in them.
  
• The number of Fuse Boxes on each floor has been reduced to 5/4/3. Each Fuse Box now reduces the time by 30/25/20s per floor.
  
• Players are no longer outlined to the Infected during the day if they jump or shoot. They are still outlined when sprinting.
  
• If a Quick Vote fails then the player being voted on will be automatically revived.
  
• Muting players and viewing what challenges you currently are progressing have both been moved to the ‘Escape’ menu.
  
• Improved our tracking of game server crashes & reduced the likelihood of unexpected issues happening after a crash.
  
• Players no longer have their speed significantly reduced when going up & down stairs/slopes.
  
• Our translations have been updated thanks to our Community Translators.
  
• [FIXED] Traps sometimes go off but only slow the Terror instead of downing it too.
  
• [FIXED] The ambient audio notifying you of a Terror being nearby sometimes incorrectly fades out, despite a Terror being close.
  
• [FIXED] The game doesn’t instantly end if the last Innocent escapes whilst another Innocent is bleeding out.
  
• [FIXED] Players walk in a non-intended way if they’re holding a knife or are crouching with a shotgun out.

• Character images have been added to the Quick Vote interface.
  
• The last 5 seconds of the Day Period no longer stops votes from being started, or Fuse Boxes from being interacted with.

• [FIXED] After being downed, players need to re-press one of WASD in order to move again on spawn.
  
• [FIXED] Pressing 'Q' interrupts channelled interactions.
  
• [FIXED] Some consumable items are unable to be picked up in the Asylum.
