Halloween update causes nausea | Forums

[joeshmo1205]

Dear Ubisoft,

Sorry about formatting, I never post on forums.

I'm a player who suffers from motion sickness that is rarely caused by videogames.
However, the new Halloween event that started today has screen effects that cause me headaches and nausea after 1 match.

The effect I'm talking about is the pulsating purple flashing on the edges of the screen (causes for I'm not yet sure of) as well as the stuttering of character models in the loading screen to imitate film reels.
These would be fine, however there is no way to turn either of these off, ESPECIALLY the purple flashing during gameplay.


Please can you add the ability to turn off screen effects such as the purple flashing, as there is currently nothing in the options menu that allows this.

Thanks

It seems to be a pattern with fh events I had to stop playing during the light saber event for the same reason.

Thank you all for the feedback on this, we really appreciate it! Bringing this up to the team now.

I was in my discord and mostly everyone was getting a headache/feeling sick.

I think a hotfix for this would be to just make the purple effect static similar to when you are in critical health. It still serves the game mechanic that way and shouldn't be that hard to hotfix (not like I would know lmao).

Like, I know there is a seizure warning and all when booting the game up, but this effect seems to cross some majorly high threshold that kinda makes me alarmed.


Seriously though, send this code to the CIA because I think you found an alternative to water torture for interrogation. Congrats on that I guess? LMAO

Aye, I agree.

Im light sensitive, if only slightly(clouded days are dope, on light grey days sunglasses are non-optional and on sunny/bright days its either "black sunglasses" and aspirin or a migraine), but Ive yet to experience an update to any other game that requires me to:

1; Fiddle with the games gamma/light settings.
2; Wear "Black sunglasses".
3; Take painkillers.

I actually really like the aesthetics of this Halloween update, truly;
I just wish they werent making me f*cking hurl every two minutes!!


Im not even saying turn it off...
Im just saying, give the individual player a possibillity to turn it off..; I really hate having to jump through a thousand hoops just to play my favorite game...

Thanks for listening, peace out!
