The static over their icon will be more visible.

Nice way of showing an important piece of information
"The icon will be kinda more visible than the other versions of it"
And the red outlines of the generators too. Sometimes I just cant see them because the maps are so dark

Don't really know what to say that's how it is. I don't have the Doc myself but I've faced him enough. Even as survivor I can easily tell what stage each person is at with madness.

survivors get neat little icons for everything and such vital info for a killer is only displayed vaguely

Tier 0- There's no static at all behind the survivors' status icons. They're not insane.
Tier 1- The static just vaguely shows, but isn't right out there. It's kind of a faded splotch.
Tier 2- That splotch gets a bit brighter and a little bigger, now you can actually see it better.
Tier 3- The static appears as a big white circle around the icon.

I wish somebody would make a screenshot of all of them in order, so even dumb-dumbs like me can tell the difference. Anybody wants to do it in KYF?

It's much easier actually, just by looking at how the Survivor and their surroundings behave:

Once a Survivor screams for the very first time in the game, he's on Madness I.

Once you see Doctor Illusions pop-up whose aura you can't see yet, the Survivor they are looking at is on Madness II. They'll never be able to go back to Madness I so you got that settled.

Once you see a Survivor walk kind of hunched over (a bit like the Hunchback from Notre Dame), they are on Madness III.

If they no longer walk like that, they are Madness II.

Here's a screencap of all three tiers of madness: http://i.imgur.com/VwHvSrJ.png

Faded static = Tier 1,
Bright, square shaped static = Tier 2,
Very bright, circle shaped static = Tier 3

You can see how 'mad' they are by looking at their status portraits.
