Snow Glare

[BigPickle]

Please reduce the snow glare, its overkill, it masks details in the environment and makes spotting very hard. I understand in real life snow blindness is a reality but it doesnt happen 24/7.

 

A great detail but over done.

Like you said, it happens during a clear sunny day - just like the weather conditions that we're now given.

I agree with this Pickle.

 

This release has way too much snow glare. It was very difficult to identify land marks even at 5K. I know some people are running SweetFX to increase contrast with ground onjects but I elected to run the game in native mode to assist in testing. Upon release I'll probably use SFX.

No, I didnt say that it happens on a clear sunny day at all, dont just make shit up and pretend someone has said it.

This is what it said

Again, it simply does happen given certain weather conditions - conditions that are basically the same as those we're given in current missions.

You don't like it, cool.

Besides, it's been said that it's being re-worked by the developers, so stay tuned, it may receive a few adjustments soon.

Do you understand what snow blindness is, Its when your retina's are burnt from the light reflection off the snow. It doesnt just simply happen regulary, prolonged exposure is needed.

I'm saying the in game bloom is a more like a representation of how it looks when you suffer from snow blindness. Very glad the devs are tweaking this over done effect.

I do understand that, what I don't understand is if you're referring to the global brigthness of the picture that you seen on your monitor, or to the bloom effect that you can only see on rare occasions, producing a green halo, and which is more like a glitch at the present state, imho.

I agree with this Pickle too, please reduce the snow glare! Real or not real, this is not interesting on this. Fact is, it is too much! Also missing dark places without snow (bomb crater, dirty places etc)

Fixed that for you.

 

For me, the snow glare is fine. Have you tried, adjusting your screen brightness, if it's too much for you?
