these are rape seed fields, and go yellow as they flower during the early summer. Tbh , i see most of you commenting on how England should look , but you live elsewhere in the world. what exactly qualifies you to comment on how my great land should look like? It looks fine to me.

As another Englishman....
It looks ridiculous to me!

As it has been said before, rape was not grown in the UK until well past the 50's and if you take the plkane down low, you will see grass, not rape rendering.

Bacause the whole point is that the colour on the the cheap screens differ WIDELY !!!
They make colour profile fit your screen then the colours are dark and bland on mine or 90% of the other ppl. You say lots of ppl complain about the colours , but in truth I only see a few ppl that complain very loudly about it.

Dont complain about the colours unless you have a proper calibrated screen + neutral gamma + you passed a colour blind test .
If you pass the three criteria above (and have proof) , then by all means.

But if your are a typical games ( specially Shooters ) then your gamma is probably way to high. Adjust it in your graphics Drivers..
Also ppl tend to up their gamma to help them see on night missions , don't expect accurate colour saturation if you do , and don't complain if you did..

I'm not saying your perception of the colour is incorrect, but I am saying you MIGHT be barking up the wrong tree when you blame the game for the bright colours.
As a note I'm a programmer that works with graphics and a lot of screens..
I say try to fix your screen/graphics settings 1st ..

I have an explaination for everyone. In 1940 Grass rust was obviously a big problem

Quote:
Turf rust is easily identified by the orange pustules on the surface of the leaves. Infected areas of lawn take on a generally yellow appearance with an orangey cast. Initial sites of infection on leaves are light yellow flecks that soon enlarge to form round to elongated pustules that rupture through the grass epidermis to release the powdery spores. Depending on the species, the spores may be red-brown, brownish yellow, bright orange or yellow.
