This is just a suggestion, but the flamethrower animation that came with the Engineer revamp is giving players headaches. This is coming from me and a few of my friends, but when the screen is filled suddenly with flashing white and yellow lights, either due to a poor camera angle or a troll player, it makes the entire area light up.
I don’t know if anyone’s complained before me, but this is borderline similar to that Pokemon episode that sent kids into seizures before the producers cut out the parts that were the culprit.
I’m not asking much, just bringing to light if anyone else hasn’t that it’s causing regular players headaches to see their screens filled with flashing fire animations. Like I’m a regular gamer and don’t normally have photosensitive responses, but like right now here in Dwayna square, someone isn’t even pointing the flame at my screen, it’s the flashing lights reflecting off the stone that’s still causing irritation. Getting a screen full of that, I have to turn away.
Anyways, please look into this? I think you should be aware when lights in your game are posing a risk to normal players.
P.S. This is disorienting in PvP. If it’s a game mechanic to have what you see on the screen prevent you from playing optimally, cool, but if not, fix it, because if someone got the bright idea, they could win unfairly by blowing a team of engineers up in people’s faces, not killing the character, but affecting the player personally and I don’t think that’s fair.
