I don't know if this is being talked about, but for the love of god can someone please tell the art team or weapon guys to tone down the muzzle flash on a few weapons?
In particular the AR (when using ADS) and HMG (all the time) are so bright it's actually difficult to make out targets as they move, especially in a dark environment. Just making it a little less extreme isn't going to be game breaking or anything and would be a hell of a lot easier on the eyes, thanks. |

I heard a rumor that you're a terrible player and you have no districts.
Any truth to this? |

Actually want more lol It looks cool in my opinion :P
Seriously, this is only issue if you either have your brightness set up to high or you play in a dark room, that will actually bust up your vision.
This is a non issue on CCP's part. Just tone down your brightness levels in system options. |

I think a few big issues with aiming are that the crosshair and/or iron sights on some weapons utterly suck and between muzzle flash and everything else happening on the screen it's easy to lose not only your crosshair but also the tracer of the rounds leaving your weapon. |

Brightness levels have nothing to do with it.
The muzzle flash actually covers the entirety of the screen, and enemy dropsuits. It is the color levels.
By adjusting brightness you make the dropsuits brighter as well as the muzzle flash. Adding value to both does not change the situation. |

I have had zero problem with the muzzle flash obscuring my vision and my glasses are 6 years out of date, maybe you just desperately need to see an optometrist |

I don't have the proper equipment to take a decent screenshot, but here is something King Kobrah posted a while back that should make the situation fairly apparent.

So as you can see, adjusting brightness wouldn't do anything. You'd just make the muzzle flash itself brighter. That's not solving the problem, really.
I can tell you from experience that the HMG muzzle flash is just as bright and covers even more of the screen, regardless of ADS. |

I could believe that. I don't really use it myself, but considering what they've done with these other two weapons it makes sense. |

Well forge shakes, but it doesn't really flash. In previous builds it made the ambient flash a bit, not really this one. |

You mentioned several other weapons. What are the chances that you (or someone else) could get screenshots and video highlighting as many of these weapons with the excessive muzzle flash? CCP Logibro // EVE Universe Community Team // Distributor of Nanites

I would ask for video demonstrating the muzzle flash and how much it obscures things Asking for screenshots leads to cherry picking the one frame that best supports their claim even if it truly is only 1 frame out of 30 that obscures anything |

Video that focuses on showing this would do as well. |

Yes but with video and firing say half a clip to demonstrate muzzle flash you get a much better idea of how much it actually obscures over a single frame screenshot |

Isn't the default around 30? 30 frames would equal to one second. It would be awfully hard to capture just the right millisecond....
Lol just messing with you but someone should make videos of this. I agree. Okay I am done with this post. |

Are you sure that you are not severely dropping frames? Possibly causing frames to be on your screen longer than they should? It may be you internet connection. |
