The funny thing is that this concept keeps being tossed around and there's never really a definitive solution... let alone something PGI could even conceive.

It's one of those debates that should be taken somewhat seriously, but actually gets ignored outright "for reasons".

So, I dunno what to tell you.

damn... I 'tested' the uninstall when the first borked the mini map... I can deal with what it is now, but man can't they use a different color for the enemy... something from their original minimap...

levels of fail is just astounding... but hey... deckles!

Sigh... PGI could simply use Blue and Red and they'd be fine for both the red green and blue yellow color blind folks.

PGI your color blind mode is a bad joke and shows genuine lack of concern for individuals with disabilities.

Not only do you need to allow people to modify the cross hairs/HUD but you need to allow the text for the range finder to be high contrast also. The black on red is super hard to see most of the time if you are colorblind. 8% of all males are colorblind and .05% of females. Guess who plays more video games ? Males....see the problem?
I can not even tell how badly my mech is damaged due to it is color based!!!
All I can tell, is I either have armor or I dont.... How hard would it be to put percents for Armor and HP Armor/HP 85/100 after no armor 0/45
I have read the forums on this topic and your players are giving you great ideas. You do not even have to come up with them yourself. I guess either you do not have anyone skilled enough to make the changes or you do not care.

Color blind issues aside, when was the last new quick play map released......?.........?

Ummm.... like 40 new mechs ago ? Never ? Yeah, that is what all of your players want. More "NEW" mechs (redesigned trash, with shifted hard points) instead of cool new maps.

You are very lucky that your players are loyal, that only last so loong. I assume your long term retention projections are not good? I do not see very many current players still playing in 2018. I guess you can cross your fingers and hope, people keep hanging out to see all the new mechs and get some free cockpit trash from you. YAY , we get to keep dropping into the same maps in slightly differnt "NEW" mechs..clap..clap...PFFFT.
