Colorblind support needed please

I would like to thank everyone here, especially all the guys that have been keeping this post relevant in the wishlist.
I really hope a change can be achieved, and I think it may come sooner or later. Thanks again to all of you who used the opportunity given by the recent survey to ask for colorblind mode instead of whatever else you may have had in mind. You guys are almost as cool as this guy

JUST ADD IT ALREADY DEVS NAME ONE OTHER THREAD WITH MORE THAN 9 PAGES AND NO SURVIVOR VS KILLER ARGUING

@TheLegendDyl4n1 said:
JUST ADD IT ALREADY DEVS NAME ONE OTHER THREAD WITH MORE THAN 9 PAGES AND NO SURVIVOR VS KILLER ARGUINGThat is really not an argument for your case. So what if there's one thread in which Killers and Survivors don't argue, that's nothing you can base your argumentation on.
There's a thread on the Steam Forums with well over 4000 comments. It does have arguments in it, but ignoring those, it's still vastly bigger than this thread here, yet what the thread asked for wasn't implemented so far.
The same couple of guys bumping the thread (which isn't allowed by the way) to artificially inflate its comment count and keep it from going under in other threads, isn't exactly the best way to get attention for a cause either.
If you want to change something, you need to gather more people for your cause and make the devs see that it is a big demand by numerous people and not just by a group of people inflating it to bigger proportions.

It doesn't have 9 page it as 8 and their is atleast 3 pages worth of bump (wich is against the forum rules)
Will I agree that a color blind mode should be implemted, you should understand at that point that the dev don't care despite the little effort that is needed to implement it.
There is not enought demand for it and it isn't 6 user continuously bumping a thread that is going to make them think otherwise.

@DocOctober @Dragonredking I said the same thing and even told them how they could help get this implemented, but they don't seem interested in getting it implemented, based on their hateful responses to me.

im sorry i made a simple mistake and clicked 9 and not 8 its a small diffrence and the point is still the same this is something that is supported by both sides and no one argues about it which was my point and it may not be in high demand because everyone is not colorblind but the fact still remains that some are and all the great games out thier contain color blind support for those who are unfortunate

You will always get some people to rail on this it is a "wishlist" We also continue to take every opportunity to make it known we want this including asking people from this thread to ask for it in the what would you change section of the latest survey. We will continue to keep this alive no matter how much it seems to bother a few irrelevant people.

i just made a friend on xbox who said he had a red key and when i died and spectated him it was a green one so i asked him why he said it was red when its green and he said he is a little colorblind and that he cant tell sometimes if items are green or red he gets them confused so if this was added it could be put into the game where he can change the color of red things to like a bright yellow so like red items, add-ons, generators, hooks appeared yellow and he could tell the difference between green things a red things. this is just on color blind situation there are many more diffrent types of colorblindness

Yes, that's how colorblindness works. Many colors look the same. It all depends on the shade of color.TheLegendDyl4n1 said:i just made a friend on xbox who said he had a red key and when i died and spectated him it was a green one so i asked him why he said it was red when its green and he said he is a little colorblind and that he cant tell sometimes if items are green or red he gets them confused so if this was added it could be put into the game where he can change the color of red things to like a bright yellow so like red items, add-ons, generators, hooks appeared yellow and he could tell the difference between green things a red things. this is just on color blind situation there are many more diffrent types of colorblindness
For instance....
Red and brown
Yellow and lime green
Purple and blue
Pink and red
Now some colors look very different depending on the background and lighting but it mostly comes down to the shade of color

Which is better than going by colours. Not all Items are unique in their Rarity and can be distinguished solely by that.TheLegendDyl4n1 said:@DocOctober said:

No. People who don't suffer from colour-blindness usually don't think of it as they have not experienced it, hence there aren't more of them here.

You ask for something to be fixed that only affects a rather small minority. The devs have an exhausting list of things that need fixing or improving which are much more important than the issue of colourblindness, especially if there are workarounds available like nvidia freestyle to help you guys out in the meantime.TheLegendDyl4n1 said:@DocOctober said:

The game is advancing loads, just not in the departments you'd like it to, sucks, but you've got to deal with it. Colourblind-support is very low on their list of priorities.1 -

First of all some of us are playing in console, so there aren't any workarounds. And most importantly, we're not asking for a complete recoding of the game, instead asking for really simple stuff like this:
* gen auras were a different color before the Clown/Kate patch, a whiteish (or whatever) aura that was visible on most maps without too much trouble for us. Why did they have to turn gen auras dark red in the first place?? So it is harder to spot survivors with BBQ?? Wouldn't doubt it. Simple solution: revert gen aura color and make survivors auras the same color. It's obvious this is a simple change because they already have different colors coded for auras, like the ones displayed when using Bond or while being hooked, the one when you stalk with Myers, the one when the killer is near the hook/kindred, the one from Alert, Object of obsession, etc.
* hook aura colors: same as above, dark red. Why is it so simple to have blue hook auras (or whatever the color is) during the events, and not as a permanent option?? They even switch the color from blue to red once you've hooked someone there, in the middle of the game!! Does this require a huge amount of resources?? Obviously it does not. Give us the option to choose hook aura colors! I'm not asking them to recode the Red forest or Haddonfield map colors, just the option to choose the auras.
* Dying and hooked teammates: Dark red. It's difficult enough to heal/save them knowing where they are. Just turn them pink, or green, or white, or blue, because we colorblind survivors DON'T know where they are hooked or crawling.
With the truckloads of money the studio is getting from cosmetics, I would expect that making their game more accessible to roughly 10% of male population translates into potentially 10% MORE MONEY for them. So this is not only a simple QOL improvement for US. It's also a business decision that will potentially improve THEIR QORL, quality of real life.
Thanks for reading, and excuse me if grammar is not perfect. English is my second language.

Even seemingly simple fixes take time to implement and again, it's a minority that is affected. It's just not a priority for them. They aware of it, but that's pretty much it for the moment.

it doesnt matter if its a small amount of people. every good game that has lasted for more than 2 years with a growing population of players have added colorblind support . we dont need people like you here saying that its not a priority, saying color-blind support is not needed right now is like saying support for people who cant hear is not needed. if we ignored the small amounts of people with disabilities then what are we then? so either get on board or leave the discussion because no one needs your negativity especially the color-blind people who have been asking for support since day 1. if they can add new content every 3 months along with outfits of clothing that they get a bunch of money from then they can easily add support options in the settings for this. they need to fix the game before constantly adding new content to the game that breaks the game even more. literally every survivor perk that came out with adam needed to be fixed.

Ignore the ones trying to belittle this and keep trying to get more people involved.

By the same criteria, only an insignificant minority (rough guess) enjoy playing as Freddy, so why is he even in the game? Or why would they be working on buffs for him? Even if he had the same fanbase as the other killers, it's only 1/13th of a priority (it does show), but at least they're working on it.
