have to agree, id like to see it go away as well. i was starting to think it was a bug and supposed to go away like the persistent meowing that replaced the alarm at one part. i think its there to emulate water on the lens? i tried shaking it off at one point even

bububut... you cant turn off reality!

 

Does BF3 actually even support outside mods to things like textures, tessellation, and stuff?

Doubt anything significant has been released but it'd be nice to have something to look forward to.

Can't imagine many graphical overhauls anytime soon but some minor tweaks to add to optimization would be nice.

That isn't reality. Its actually fairly dumb, considering we are seeing out of our virtual soldiers eyes. Meaning its a person, and tell me, do you walk around seeing lens flare and spots all day?

 

its water on teh visor thing or whatever they got over their eyes

Look at your avatar, whats on his face?

 

I doubt BF3 will support mods, but if Dice/EA treats BF3 like BF:BC2, we should see several major patches to fix in-game issues.

it only happens sometimes especially in the bazaar map when you go into the alleyway/tunnel

it does fade away after awhile for me...IMHO doesn't bother me

 

We have visor on our faces all the time. :/

Mad cataracts.

 

But now I'm thinking, if you look at your teammates in SP, do they even have some sort of eye protection on? So maybe you're the only one wearing tactical goggles/visors.

 

You cant turn it off, its the "artistic style" of the game.

Here is a HD video I recorded of the awesome Dirt-In-Your-Eye-Action! and dont forget to check out the 10 alien UFO's flying around above the battlefield either!

They should make a patch that has an option to take off your goggles (remove the effect) and put them back on at user discretion. Side effect of not having them on is temporarily blindness (blurry vision) if something blows up near you and debris gets thrown into your face.

No, but you can clean your glasses...

 

I really hope they give us a way to turn it off. I just closed the campaign because i can't take it anymore. I think though, that's its Much much worse in the SP, i hardly noticed it in the MP.

Your seeing through glasses. Soldiers don't just go out into war without safety glasses you know.

This.

We all wear safety glasses in combat to keep our eyes safe.

 

Maybe an action to clean the visor that's as long as reloading, just a thought.

Yeah but in the movies they leave them on their helmets all the time, and then they have problems when the flashbangs go off.

Safety glasses scratch super easily. Perhaps, for realism's sake ofc, after 15 minutes, or a few dives into the sand, you can't see at all.

To be fair, I imagine there isn't much time to wipe them clean when you are getting shot at.
