So since some people went off topic and got the last film grain topic locked lets try again. Can we keep this one to film grain, I don't care about the airspeed velocity of an unladen swallow.

Way off topic now.

Film Grain may or may not affect performance. I'll talk with Matt about this.
It's not considered key to gameplay.
This is partially a "I like blue/I hate blue", personal taste opinion. We won't make everyone happy.
It should be an toggle option.
We do not encourage users to modify the user.cfg file, however there are known tweaks that can be made to improve performance. This is not a violation of the TOS.

Extracting game files and modifying them is a TOS issue and I don't recommend doing this. You can seriously ****** your game up.



I want you to understand just how much a lot of people detest the filmgrain trend in modern shooters.

I played one match in the Hawken closed beta 1 event. There are two reasons for this, both art related. First they didn't hire Flying Debris, their mechs don't look cool. Second, the film grain is terrible and makes the game look really bad.

We need to be able to turn film grain off ASAP.
