Anti-epilepsy filter?

Sure you can, just let it switched on by default.

That can't be the future that hardware demanding games have to struggle with such bullshit and that high end hardware (SLI, ...) even causes issues.
Laughable ...

P.S: Most people told ya that UBI sucks balls, but you go for it. Here's the cashback.

email sent to getgames asking for cancelling order.....it was meant to be a happy week....will see how the things will go......damn UBI...Oleg made a deal with the devil...

btw as I can see ppl are cancelling orders on mass....at least according to posts at UBI...and I think this time its not just pretending...I just hope UBI will not kill COD.....with their retarded decisions...

I cancelled my order, too.

No money from me to support this crap. Either get this XXXX optional or make it possible for people from other countries to get a version (1C?) which has this optional and has english language or no money from me and many others.

We will probably never know, but I can't keep wondering WHY was UBICrap chosen as a publisher, AGAIN?!

And more importantly - why did the development team agree on implementing this? We knew already that UBI is no good, but wasn't there a way out of this mess?

Provided that the first 2 could have not been different / better - why wasn't it delayed further?? This will only hurt sales and has a terrible chance to hurt the new series in the making.


Will post this in a separate thread.

That's gonna be sooo much fun for the stores who made their preorders based on customers preorders.

Too sad about the state of affairs to go back and check through the previous posts, but here it is again if so:

Kotaku reports on the issue.

i havent order it yet.. but had planned to get it when released.. think i'll wait now. I can't say the graphics i've seen look that impressive, bit dissapointed.

Will await better feedback/reviews.

We CANNOT make these optional. That will allow an opportunistic or an unfortunate person suffering from epilepsy to sue Ubisoft for damages and literally close down the studio for good.

This was a stop-gap measure to make sure the game gets released. As I explained in the clumsily-translated Russian article, everything in our game causes seizures - gunfire, explosions, fire, sun passing behind canopy framework, etc. Basically flight sims are an epileptic's nightmare.

We'll work to improve the framerate and perhaps address individual issues individually as opposed to applying a single rough post-effect filter, but it is basically a very sad situation. Something completely unrelated and unexpected came to our sim with a giant axe and whacked at it at the last moment. We just didn't have time to properly address it.

Then you just lost a customer. Sorry. Not being able to disable the filter is unacceptable. I don't have epilepsy, no-one in my family does. I don't really care for others making decisions for me, "for my own good".
Blame UBI. Although I don't understand why you guys are still with that pack of hustlers and liars. It's not like they have never screwed you over before. I think the ROF or the Eagle Dynamics model would work for you as well.

What are you talking about? They have already patched in an option to disable the filter.

Great first post, well done.
