Anti-epilepsy filter?

[furbs]

So how long has UBI had this new rule and how long has the COD team known about it?

Are you saying Luthier that the sim is handicapped for months to come?

Im sorry but something does not add up to me.
We get to know about this on release day??

come on...im not that green.

1 terawatt psu (with 6 pin for video of course )

IIRC the publisher "was found" in October last year.

Leave a comment on that epilepsy site like I did.

Paragraphs like this show more ignorance than insight:

John explains: “The original approach to broadcasting all those years ago was that prevention is better than cure. It was right for broadcasting and it’s also right for video games. We’re not asking developers to do anything that’s not already tried and tested. The technology has been around for a very long time. There are no expensive, difficult or cutting-edge things to be done – it’s boringly easy.”

Lawsuits are killing off far more than games. It's complete madness. The West really does deserve to fail.

I wish you best of luck in dealing with this. Even if you sort out FPS & SLI/CF problems, I wonder how will this affect overall graphical representation.

Words can't express the shock I am still feeling after reading about this two hours ago!

Someone could simply ignore to be epileptic. One person in 4'000 can suffer from a seizure induced by light patterns. And also, someone can be an-alphabet. Or under 6 years old. Or not speaking the language of that version. Or ... you name it. A good lawyer can make a fortune out of this, in US but not only. More than that, Ubisoft wants to improve his public image after the Nintendo issue in UK, which caused a tabloid-galore.

Again, I blame only the very late action on this spec, maybe related with the late choice of the Western publisher.

PS: or, maybe, it's just an excuse for the low FPS ... just kidding !

So, i guess we now call it IL2:EW (Epileptic Warning)

This is horrific news. I have good hardware. I don't have epilepsy. Cannot stand low or uneven framerates. I don't want to edit an .ini file to turn off a filter but I guess I could go along with that solution, if it was there. I cancelled my pre-order. Will wait around and see if issues like these go away. Hoping for the best!

UBI's "Silent Hunter 5" was a sim I was looking forward to greatly (bought 3 and 4). I cancelled the pre-order when I found out about the constant-connection-to-UBI-servers. Rise of Flight I also skipped.

I try to judge fairly and see things from their perspective. I think UBI as a publisher has lots of money, brings us some good titles/franchises, but ultimately stand out as being incompetent. The marketing section seems to have no clue to how the market will respond to their bizarre decisions.

well after readin all this im almost glad that Im not getting the game until the 19th...

I hope this all gets sorted out by then.

Hey, I have hemorrhoids from sitting and playing il2 too much, can Ubisoft do something about this?
