i cant see s**t on nighttime maps

[melodicmizery]

maybe its just me because im color blind and us colorblind people havea  harder time seeing at night but i crash at least 12 times on night time maps. it makes me furious. i even tried turning my brightness to full and thats not helping. is it just me or did anyone else have issues?

[omnx-supak]

To be honest man, I've played this a while ago but I don't remember having issues finding my way at night. 

[rolltideroll157]

Had absolutely zero issues with any of the nighttime maps. They were just as clear as the daytime ones really.

I had trouble with this. I think it's to do with being in a sunlit room and the glare it causes on the screen. Tried shutting the curtains and it seems to help ?

I'm also having trouble seeing in nighttime maps. Especially once you activate your Rush (or an enemy/ teammate does).

 

The times I crashed into a rock that I didn't see because of this are countless to say the least.....

The game was made by a bunch of a f*cking hacks formerly at Evolution Studios, so what's to be expected. I can't see sh*t either when it's dark and have run into too many rocks while driving on night time tracks too.

Oh great im anemic so this will be fun. I barely see in the dark as it is.

You played those Driveclub heavy rain nighttime events too, huh?

 

 

Yeah, they sure favor style over playability often.

Boo. Those guys are talented. Loved their work in DriveClub. Evolution created a potential answer to Forza Horizon and it would have come to fruition if Layden hadn't shuttered them.

I remember my first-time reaction to that was, 'They expect me to race a hypercar through this in 30fps?!'

@Eraezr Don't get me wrong, I'm a huge Motorstorm and Driveclub fan and wish we were still getting sequels to those, but truth be said, Evo's work has become increasingly flawed over time.

 

And it's only getting worse since they joined Codemasters and EA.

I feel like I can't count Onrush as a fair test to their calibre as Codemasters did not allow the team to complete their game. I was watching the developers' social media closely, and it's as if CM used the negotiation money Sony gave to absorb the devs for the company's own gain. Which is a small wonder why Rushdie and the others left the studio shortly, going over to Avalanche.

@Eraezr I know very little about that stuff, but at the time I believe they said they made the game they wanted, as they wanted (OnRush).

 

And Rushy still points to it as one of his favorite games:

 

I'm more into simcades, but I actually enjoyed OnRush. It's simply something I would never play for very long.

 

Have you tried Dirt 5 and Grid Legends? Now those are truly disappointing. I literally fall asleep playing those games. LITERALLY!

Nah, I'm a little reluctant to touch rally-focused games for the time being after V Rally 4 (different studio and style I know) so the stigma might sit there for the next two years until I'm ready. Won't be playing Grid Legends since Project Cars 3 won out of backlog acquisition priority for my simcade fix, so that's that.

I don't think I've ever gone out of my way to complain about lighting in a game before, but to concur with others who've had similar issues... the lighting for the night levels is ass ?, I lost track of the amount of times I obliviously smashed into a rock shrouded in darkness ?

[Ninjise]

I never had much issues with night levels in Onrush, sure was rather annoying at times but mostly were fine, Driveclub however is a completely different matter, doesn't matter how good your eyesight is, some tracks are simply impossible to see what the hell is going with all the rain and darkness in front of you.

[tony_snake_24]

In one of the desertic maps at night, there was a giant rock in the middle of a certain part that you just couldn't see at all. Crashed into that one quite a few times.

[ConAir]

No, it's not you. I also crash a lot more on night maps where it sometimes is hard to see the difference between the road, sky or rocks. Maybe I should change the brightness settings a bit, because I mostly play at daytime.

[ResiGamer_28]

It's designed that way, hence the blizzards. You have to think fast. 

[EqualityEarth]

I have died more times in this game than I have blinked in my life and that is partly during the nighttime variant events.

[melodicmizery]

i honestly wish i could just turn night time off in every single game there is.
