I suffer with this abit annoying but not a massive problem but still some thing that needs to be looked at since its like a smoke screen.

I thought it was suppose to do this as i can still see the hud markers and cross hairs. I haven't been hit with anything but ssrms yet so I thought it was just them.

Streak SSRMs. Normally, streaking would allow you to see *everything* i.e. more than you wanted. In this game though, it just adds another layer of camo.

Prior to patch I was getting the HDR dimming effect from taking fire. Is this possibly connected? I can't personally evaluate well right now at 4fps.

With this and IMO excessive shaking from ballistic/missle damage it makes your mech basically unplayable.

I am not spending my money on this until this is fixed. If this isn't fixed by the devs it must be fixed by the community as this will surely be abused and I have already seen it being abused while I am in trial Awesome...

Edit: IMO the people who are voting No are abusing this or are not aware of it.
