About all these rants on new patch colours

[Sternjaeger II]

Guys, I think we got to a stage here where we need to understand what we want: do we want something that looks life-like (cos that's the direction they've finally taken) or do we want something that is a bit cartoonish for the sake of comfort?

If you fly in a plane at midday you might struggle to see the instruments, the eye will need to cope with sunlight and can't do two jobs at the time (sunglasses for pilots are not just a fashion item).

What they're trying to deliver here is the best representation of what things look like in real life, before moaning about it play with your gamma, contrast and brightness settings, let's try to be sensible.

Uh and another thing: don't post stuff like "please fix this or that", it sounds like everything is broken! Choose your words carefully ("my experience with this x feature is..") if you want to be listened to, it also really helps keeping the good spirits up!

Landscape looks good, maybe cockpit needs to be half and half

[skouras]

whetever we say or not
it seems that the dev's already decided what to do
again for some people who lives in England the curently colours of the landscape
is crap..
for others is good
for others is-LCD trip--
same with cockpits
personally i don't like the contrast of the pits
cause loosing a lot of details
i don't care about RL
I care about detail

the only thing wanna see as close as it gets is the physics and FM
Of the aircrafts
IMHO

To be honest I'm deeply confused about this whole color discussion. Don't get me wrong...I believe that there is room for improvement. I just fail to see the importance of it considering the state of the sim. For me personally there are many matters which are way more important (stutters, performance, AI, dynamic campaign, dynamic weather). But there are a million threads about colors and almost none about the other issues. I'm confused.

I think that is because all we have as a must that all that other things that are broken need to be fixed. For example it´s silly begin a discussion about if coms need to be working or not. Everybody knows coms have to work yes, or yes. About colors the problem is that if we do not argue, them colors may not change and stay as bad as they are now. It´s even worse because we now that it´s possible to have right colors, as we already had, cockpits in original and landscape in last beta.

You always are going to be discussing about so so things, not about what everybody agree.

I think my head just exploded.

So really you don't care about the details, you care about your vision of how things should look, real or not.

Perhaps a PS3 or Xbox would be more satisfying for your play style.

now tell me
which from the above pics
is detailed as real as it gets
if one of those is closed to England terrain
then i will explode myself
