What is vital is if one does have epilepsy so they will be aware.
In short, if a game triggers a bout of epilepsy, it is a GOOD thing (tm) becuase one will now how to deal with it when it happens again.

But think of it - you could faint and hit the keyboard with your head!

And as a result you break it, or even worse, generate an infinite number of repeating keystrokes.

Btw, website about (seizures) is one of a lawyer sueing some editors for seizures

Tar and feather him, or even better, burn him on a stick.

I suggest him to investigate how many people have fallen off cliffs of Dover while wearing hiking boots and sue the boot manufacturers.

It seems that because of epilepsy-gate muzzleflashes, sparks and flying debree have been removed as well from current version of CoD. But the game sounds very good

The oversight, if it can be called such, was that Oleg's team had not developed a game that has been epilepsy tested before (Il2 1946 was published before this was introduced). Therefore they were unaware of how many issues would appear during testing.

The game was submitted to Ubisoft for routine epilepsy testing and failed the test spectacularly. Response was to attempt to correct each and every little cause separately, but there was not enough time. Ubisoft won't publish without issues being solved. Result, this stopgap solution is pushed out.

Short term solution will be to make disabling the epilepsy filter an own risk thing.

Long term will be to fix the individual issues.

So I will buy the game, hope it runs acceptably on my PC or the short term solution arrives soon, and wait for the long term fix. Its at most a temporary inconvenience, so I'm not going to act like its the end of the world

So I was right then after all the Dev's screwed up not Ubi. Now stop 'sighing' and apologise theres a good chap.

This is Male Cow Poop, Other Publishers got games wich are way worse for people with Epilepsy (Crysis 2 being the latest example of these games) and a simple Epilepsy Warning is enough.
No need to ruin a game wich took 6 years to develop

If you have to take it a step further than add a huge fat red Epilepsi warning against a black background that shows upfor 3 seconds each time the geme is started, that should cover you legaly against being seud against some idiot with Epelipsy whose gonna play a computer game for hours on end.

(Legal statment: not saying here that Epileptics are idiots, just the ones who know there epileptic and than go and play a game for hours untill they have an attack, and than sue the publisher for having an attack)

Anyway, this Male Cow Poop means im not buying the game, like atleast 10 others i know that where gonna buy the game before but arte no longer buying it now, some even had there preoders canceled, so good luck selling your game has an build in performance loss/stutter and on top of that doesnt run on a Multi GPU Cards, Crossfire and SLI setups, and looks pooped.

Is MS FSX subject to the anti-seizure stuff? If so, I'm sure a lot of the stuff that seems wrong can be fixed, it'll just take time (prop spinning, etc.).

I just don't understand how all the stuff in CoD can 'fail' when I look at some recently released games that seemingly haven't failed.

Modern Warfare, Bulletstorm, all of those FPSs. Wings of Prey for that matter. ArmA 2.

ArmA 2 must be an epileptic's worst nightmare if played during night missions!

Is it only Ubisoft that has this restriction? What are some other Ubisoft very recent titles? Those must have to pass this restriction too.

I think this is my first post...

I'm just getting my copy on the 31st.
Then I'm going to install it, and wait for patches.

Anyone know if I can run this on a HD5570?
