Originally by: Statics This is retarded. Real ECM pilots should know what jammers do what. Change the icons maybe, but don't color-code the things.
totally agree...
You can please all of the people some of the time, and some of the people all of the time,
but you cant please forum whiners NO MATTER WHAT you try to do
logical move ccp, saves ppl that extra second in combat they may need.
Color blind? Not being an arse... but why dont you do whatever you did BEFORE they were color coded???!!!

Of course we'll keep doing what we've been doing.
But if CCP is going to put color coding in the game so that other players can see this stuff "at a glance", is it really so unreasonable to ask that the colors be chosen with care, so that we can enjoy the same convenience?
In a perfect world, interfaces evolve TOWARD accessibility, not away from it. There's nothing wrong with saying "Hey!" when CCP takes a step in the wrong direction, especially one they could fix by changing a few color values in a new code feature.
no, i got what you were saying. i was more commenting on those a$s clowns and just kinda threw in that comment.
I dont think there is any argument that can be made against making the game MORE accessable to ppl, but engineering towards ppl being color blind can be very difficult in a video game.( i would guess, i really have no frackin clue)
I'm sure they will add it to their list of things to do and research possible solutions to some of the graphics.
I remember a college buddy that was very color blind. He was an absolute ace at just about any video game, had 20/20 vision and often his vision seemed more accute than most others.... but then there were the few times when i would point at the screen and say "wtf?" and he would look at me and say "ya see, i cant see that"
would a universal filter on the graphics to replace one color w/ another work? like all red with brown and all green with blue? hearing ppl talk about it, i have to wonder there is probly alot of $$$ out there if one could engineer a device to assist color blind ppl on any video game/interactive software. computer or console....
