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

No, unfortunately they asked for desaturation. They want to fly with greyish colours. You would know this if you had read the thread.

What does this help in this issue? We will again start a discussion about screen settings as we already had about fotos. Absolutely futile. That's your intention in asking about my screen. I as well may ask you about your screen in order to "proof" that you just have to buy a good screen.

Fact is that the colours I see ingame are close to what I see outside with the game as it is now. It is not perfect (heck, it's a video game) but desaturating it goes the wrong direction as everything will become desaturated - also the sunsets, the red firefighter car, the sky, the navigation lamps). Nevertheless I know that the colours are over all quite spot on (I grew up in the country side and I now live in a town with many parks and a lot of nature around. Thus I can compare on a daily basis. I also take flights regularly). Many posters agree on this if you read the thread closely.
