Title: Banner outlines
Post by: Porthos on December 22, 2013, 09:59:53 am
Hey there! I am using WSE2 and I always playing with it's feature called 'show banner outlines' enabled. It works fine to me, and it's very useful. But when it comes to a snowy maps - this feature works weird as hell. Just look:
Both pictures has taken with a darkest monitor gamma settings, but it's almost impossible to recognize is that an enemie or allie. With lighter monitor gamma you cant say who is who at all. For example:
(click to show/hide)
Who do you think is this? visitors can't see pics , please register or login
It was an enemie visitors can't see pics , please register or login
Also this issue is a big obstacle during a foggy conditions. Look:
(click to show/hide)
Who are these guys? Am I need to charge them or to defend their lives? visitors can't see pics , please register or login
So, I just try to say that it's hard to play when you have a bunch of people twinkling right in front of you and you cant say if it's an enemy or not... Since you've made this feature, so please make it more comfortable to play with. Just make an outlines less transparent. Thank you and merry Christmas!

Its bullshit feature, just remove it.
Maybe I am alone with this opinion, but outlines in modern games are just lame (immersion breaker, accepted designed cheat). Especially in games like this with fog and night it gives unfair advantage.

Yes, remove it please, it is unrealistic as fuck and it removes a lot of immersion while playing.

I simply disabled banners for enemies. That's the best way to differentiate allies from enemies IMO.

Wait, a gigantic "THIS GUY IS AN ENEMY" sign is considered a "feature" and not a "cheat?"

With normal setting differing between allies and enemies is still easier banner/no banner, not very hard and certainly not harder to differ than with theese narrow outlines. /fail troll.

for me that option is flat cheat and should be removed long time ago
