Hopefully this is something the modding community can tackle, as I highly doubt Ubisoft will allow it to be switched off. Or like some have said, to incorporate an option in the graphics menu to turn the filter off. But i'm afraid it would probably resort to using legal actions against Ubisoft which is pointless. It's all wishful thinking. Death to Ubisoft

No, the subtext of the complaints is that it's a disproportionate response to a problem that a small minority suffers from. I can totally support efforts to make games more accessible to everyone, but not at the cost of having to degrade the game for the rest of population. It's the same as removing peanuts from peanut butter because there are people who could go into anaphylactic shock after eating peanuts, because they're allergic to peanuts, and then telling the rest of population that they need to also eat their butter without peanuts because they might spontaneously develop peanut allergy, suffer an allergic reaction of some strength, and subsequently sue the peanut butter company for gold. Flashes, fast contrast changes and the like are going to happen in a flight sim. Removing that will remove essential parts of realistic graphical depiction of the simulator. Propellers, muzzle flashes, sun being obscured by cockpit structures, other airplanes or clouds, flying near buildings... there is simply no way to remove this without severly degrading the game itself. Even worse, the filter is also affecting the gameplay performance of the game. There is no logic in ubisoft's decision. Warning labels would be sufficient. Anti-epileptic filter would be laudable if it were possible to disable or if it didn't cause drop in performance or graphical quality. Since that is not the case, I'm not going to sit and calmly eat the manure that Ubisoft is shoveling to us. I'll be actively seeking ways to disable said filter, and if it's not possible to do by myself, I'll leave the game in my book shelf waiting for a solution to the problem, and if it never materializes I'll just play IL-2 instead - assuming the problems really are as severe as they sound like. Will have to wait and see for myself in-game. At any rate, I am really sorry for 1C and Maddox Games, and I hope they will find some other publisher for outside Russia releases, as Ubisoft is clearly not at all interested or motivated in actually investing anything in your work. Between the lines, I can read immense frustration regarding the situation, and I really hope the situation can be remedied via later patches and releases. Even releasing directly via Steam exclusively would be preferable to this sort of travesty, and I would never have thought I'd say this since physical copy of the game still has value for me over digital purchase, but Ubisoft's actions are simply deplorable, and I feel bad for giving any money at all for them at all - but I do want the game, and I want to support the devs. Well, at least there's one bright spot in the end of the tunnel aside from the freight train approaching me at 120 km/h, and that's the fact that no one can take IL-2 1946 away from us. I am in fact almost certain that IL-2 will hold its own for quite a while, especially if the performance of CoD is significantly crippled by the anti-apocalyptic filtering system.

Gentlemen,
I urge all of you to cancel your pre-orders as soon as possible. Money is all that UBI and 1C understand, so the only way to drive home our dissatisfaction is to cut off the money tap. I have canceled both my pre orders. Sorry Oleg, I truly am, but it's my money and I refuse to spend it on a broken product.

I want to believe that this whole "anti-epilepsy filter" thing is a fake, phony marketing trick meant to lower any unrealistic expectations that guys have developed over the last few years.
Step 1 - Purposely release the game in an un-optimal state. Step 2 - Make up a story that Ubisoft is responsible. Everyone hates them anyway and an "anti-epilespy filter" certianly sounds plausible. Step 3 - Let the end user stew in low fps misery for a few weeks until all those unrealistic expectations go by the wayside. Step 4 - Release a super patch that makes the problems go away. My stomach is starting to hurt. They better get this fixed. |

The only sensible thing to do is wait and see if they can remove the performance penalty or if it's possible to opt out of the silly filter. Extremely disappointed and I feel extremely bad for Oleg and Ilya and the rest of their team to be burdened with this news on what should be a time to celebrate several years of extremely hard work.
