Just wait until the lot of you pilot a Locust, if you thought the field of view was bad before hand... :lol:

I imagine they'll tone it down, although it would be better as a cumulative effect over the course of the match with missiles fired, hits, or ballistics fired.

I think it looks really nice. ads another tactical option, get the sun in your opponents eyes so that he/she can´t see you :lol:

Have you modified your FoV? Your screenshots look NOTHING like mine.

I thought User.cfg tweaks were removed? If not, I am so totally going to remove the complete $@#$@ pop in this game gets from horrid draw distances.

I like it - tested in the atlas, stalker, HBK, doesn't seem terribly obtrusive, with most of the frosted appearance concentrated at the corners or side-panels. I do not feel my view is hindered or obstructed. The flare feels very mild to me, but I do not know if there are multiple levels depending on shader quality selection.

As if damn film grain and forced depth of field and generally dim palettes are not enough. I think with more patches one can as well play with his display off without feeling the difference.

You can modify it, provided you create the file manually, although only some parameters work. FoV is one you can change.

Just had a match in my awesome.
Well, the effect is nice, but in my opinion the glass is way too much opaque, and the reflections are too strong.
If it stays as it is now, it could be a big problem, because i find it stressing for my eyes, and i'm sure i'm not the only one that has this issue.

The glass efect can definitely remain, but it needs to be decreased, A LOT!

It's just awful and not "realistic" or "atmospheric" I wouldn't have a car with that dirty a window ever. I don't need something that makes my decent monitor and graphics card look like a ****** monitor and graphics card.

So option to turn off would be nice but you'd be better scraping it or make it a feature you could turn on if wanted as it's not going to make new players love the game more.

We're looking into a toggle for the cockpit glass for video creators. Also, we plan to allow more camera controls with priv matches. #mwo

I have done a half-dozen matches with the new cockpit glass. Is it wierd that I don't even notice it? I honestly have no idea what so many people are complaining about.

Haven't seen it in game yet, but perhaps it makes it harder to use long range weapons?
Sounds like a good thing to me...

The physics are off horribly. Sitting in the shade, sun is behind the wall behind me, and I still have a glare???

Thanks!

This is WAY better than Community Warfare! :lol:

Just kidding. Immersion is good. Metagame even more good.
