First off we are talking about two separate things.
Direct Sun light is what we are seeing, and it does not matter what type of sun glasses or shield (see NASA visor) can block direct sunlight. Sorry but if you look at the sun, any sun on any planet you will not be able to see and eventually burn your eyes out.
Glare is sun light or any light source reflecting off another object. Examples are snow, glass, cement etc. This can be blocked by adding a polarized lens, that acts like a venetian blind and blocks glare from hitting your eyes.
What happens on that one map is direct sunlight hitting you from one side. While it is kinda annoying, it is a really great effect in game.
Sorry to burst your bubble, but CCP actually did it correctly and nothing can block direct sun light.

DPGäó FTW LOL this response right here. so u hinder one sides ability to see for a visual immersion effect this game is so competitive  gameplay > realism
Its not just one side getting being hindered its everyone that turns that direction will get that same direct sun light effect.
Yes, Ill take realism that goes that extra step to be different then the same BS that we have had for years in COD, BF. CCP is going for full immersion into the New Eden universe. If we were in battle and the sun was up and facing us, we would be having these issues. Sorry but Ill take Realism > over kids game-play mode.. I've played enough of those over the years. I came to Dust to see what the next great step up in the FPS gaming could do, adding Lightning effects, sun effects, soon weather effects to each planet will make Dust a unique experience.
Also I think you are QQ'ing for the sake of attention rather then trying to effect the game. But thats just my opinion. |

DPGäó FTW That's no excuse to not change an annoying aspect of the map
Actually it is. :) |

Then we agree to disagree (rare in the forums). You prefer to not have it, I think its a cool effect.
Have I died from it, yes. But Ive also used to my advantage many, many times. |

DPGäó FTW Nothing can block direct sunlight? So we shouldn't have any shadows at all because nothing can stop that sunlight from shining right through every single obect. Of course you recognize that as absurd. Opaque objects are all around us. So it is simple to posit a visor that can selectively opaque two spots on the visor such that it would prevent the direct light from shining into each eye. I'm pretty sure somone could cobble that together from current technology with something like an LCD visor, a light sensor, and a bit of electronics.
Dude, think about it. If it blocks direct sunlight do you think it would let anything else in?
And unless you have a 100% computer image in front your eyes and we are not really looking out the visor then YES you get sunlight.
See NASA buddy, gold lens cover to not see direct sunlight in space. But can you look directly into the sun with it... NO.

See NASA buddy, gold lens cover to not see direct sunlight in space. But can you look directly into the sun with it... NO. Actually, the idea of something that can adjust from totally transparent to totally opaque (like a super-transition lens), but is controlled by an internal computer that only opaques out certain parts of the visor would work. It would basically be like putting your hand out in front of your face - you'd still get a bit of glare shining around the opaque areas, and you'd have a big black spot in the way of your vision, but it would be better than trying to stare into direct sunlight and find your target. And it's bordering on believable near-future sci-fi tech, so it's conceivable that something like this could exist in New Eden.
Ok, +1 for thinking outside the box and coming back with an intelligent rebuttal. But black spot or glare... hmm lol |
