Pate8 Posted December 3, 2015 Share Posted December 3, 2015 Having played PvE with the local reflections turned off, and turning them back on recently... it's very difficult to see players on the Cephalon PvP map with all the reflections. While we're on the same topic, depth of field, motion blur, bloom are all very distracting. It's easier to spot and shoot players with all settings turned down because their bodies appear more sharply against the background environment. I think we need to tune these settings down for PvP.

Loxyen Posted December 3, 2015 Share Posted December 3, 2015 Not only on Cephalon maps. An example is the rework of the old europa conclave. If you are in the mid and look to the roof you'll be blind 4evouarrr... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a low-end notebook owner I just can state that 'awsum' settings are distractable. I mean I tried to play on PC with a huge screen and max graph settings. Blasted really quick. You already solved that problem by tuning down settings. The only tweak I can suggest is making a presets for player's convenience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atom Posted December 3, 2015 Share Posted December 3, 2015 yeah like wth are DE thinking trying to make this game look shiny and chrome? it's not like they added configuration options so we can enable or disable effects. i think they should at least have automatic eye candy calibration based on user mood. that seems reasonable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-DragonOfTheWest- Posted December 3, 2015 Share Posted December 3, 2015 Not much more you can do if you have turned the setting off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It also gives me a competitive edge. As a low-end notebook owner I just can state that 'awsum' settings are distractable. I mean I tried to play on PC with a huge screen and max graph settings. Blasted really quick. You already solved that problem by tuning down settings. The only tweak I can suggest is making a presets for player's convenience. Does Nvidia support presets per game? Warframe doesn't have in-game graphics presets (outside of the typical sliders). Edited December 3, 2015 by Pate8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phasedragon Posted December 3, 2015 Share Posted December 3, 2015 Most of the settings in warframe are not more intensive or better looking, they're mostly up to opinion. The difference between high all on and low all off is minimal FPS-wise, but there's a very distinct difference between fancy and plain. If you prefer not to have distracting options, turn them off. If you like eye candy and are playing casual against hordes of braindead enemies, no reason not to have them on other than preference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And yes, I now turn off all eye candy for PvP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm well aware of where this is, however this thread really has very little to do with pvp. That and I was poking fun at casual pve-only players.

Phasedragon Posted December 3, 2015 Share Posted December 3, 2015 Please elaborate. These settings apply to everything. If you don't want em don't enable em. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
