if you think the bright green trees are accurate, that's for you... but there is image after image that will disagree with you and if you can't discern the difference between the ground and the trees in the shots, then you have something which needs sorting... unfortunately, defective colour vision can't be

No need to get personal, my colour vision is quite right me thinks. Your last line was well beyond acceptable.

No rocket science, I remember, more than ten years ago that Quake had this very simple option.

Cant you do that in your video card manager

The video with less saturated colours is, in my view, decidedly less realistic than the ingame appearance.

A low level of saturation only obscures the real imperfection--or slight inaccuracy--of the colours (in terms of hue and value) in the ingame 3D environment, and, as a matter of fact, zero saturation can do it with the best effect, LOL.

Have to say this vid does look nice.

From the Gamespot review :


"... But it all seems so meaningless when you fly above a relatively bland-looking London or a garish green-yellow countryside ..."

They should use their screen setup if they don't like it.

I like the colours and for chrissake give the hollywood spoiled saturation sliders in the video settings and leave the realistic bright colours to those running around with open eyes

Have they said they prefer the "save the private Ryan" filter ?

No.

They just said Clodo countryside colors are "garish".

your "realistic bright colours" (note the "bright colours" bit) aren't real world realistic though
