It was mineā€¦ Lol

Not really? Gaijin develops the engine, Darkflow just uses it. So those were ultimately implemented by Gaijin.

67

I donā€™t remember the exact quote, but regardless, it shows that such work is done for both games, rendering the argument that they canā€™t edit the engine moot.

then thanks for the good suggestion hope it gets implemented

Cant agree, games SHOULD NOT have options to adjust fog amount, trees amount, weather effects or particular sounds designed to be laud. If something is to laud for you - you have to lover master volume, have low fps - get a new pc, thats easy.

Things like removing everything from everywhere to see better and hear better is equal to cheating. Its fine to allow someone to adjust music or speech volume, but creating slider for each effect or gun is just wrong.

While I do somewhat agree with the fact that if people can not afford a new PC they would not be able to spend money on the otherwise F2P game, but not having the options at all is just going to make a lot of players skip the game just because of hardware requirements. It will actively hurt the gameā€™s playerbase so options like that do have to exist up to a certain point (for example, have tree render distance be the distance where 3D trees turn into 2D sprites - donā€™t stop rendering them entirely, but the setting to reduce hardware demand should still exist)
But telling people that can not play the game due to a physical or mental disorder to handicap themselves immensely just because the game does not allow them to disable stacking an in-game disorder with their existing disorder is just wrong. It has nothing to do with it being loud. It has everything to do with them already having tinnitus in real life and stacking them on top of each other can cause hearing damage, headaches, even epilepsy.

With the ammount of shouting in this game, this could equally be considered cheating.

This exactly. I donā€™t have a problem with other volumes being too loud, but the ringing is almost like getting flashbanged when using headphones.

72

i not know why anyone can disagree with this
remove tinnitus option

73

I think you mean other way around? To add it?

74

is what i meant
ā€˜remove tinnitusā€™ option
not remove ā€˜tinnitus optionā€™

75

Again, only if implemented as per my suggestion, which isnā€™t that hard tbh and someone else said thatā€™s how War Thunder does it anyway, so there isnā€™t an issue there.

In other news, the forum is currently set to Russian across the board.

Rumours are they are searching for new ways to make the soviets win more often.

I would love to have a remove tinnitus effect option. I wouldnt care if the character would go completely deaf for that time. Gaijin, please! War Thunder has that option. This sound causes physical pain for some of your players, me included. Some are getting reminders that they have constant ringing in their ears.
