Please Help Us Players Who Are Colourblind! (Suggestions)
Hello Devs, I hope you take the time to seriously read this. I'm a player like many others who suffer from one or more colourblindness. Myself, I have protanomaly AND deutranomaly, meaning anything falling under the green and red spectrums my vision gets horrible mixed up, and this does include brown, one of the most common colours in over half your maps. It's so bad that I can't see Survivors more often than not in two of these maps, Yamaoka Estate and some of the Coldwind Farm maps (Rotten Fields and The Thompson House).
The following are some suggestions I have that might resolve this issue for myself and for those who are colourblind, Devs:
1) Colourblind mode - I know this can be easily exploited by people without colourblindness to view things more easily without perks like Survivors' blood trails, but most modern games have this feature in them at this point.
2) Map Blacklisting - Something that I first experience in World of Warcraft years ago, I think back during Cataclysm when they added it not sure, but it allowed for people to avoid maps they didn't find favourable or outright did not enjoy.
3) Nerf The Corn Fields - People have been joking and making memes of this for a while, but by thinning out the corn just a little bit might go a long way for those of us who are colourblind with discerning colours when in the corn fields.
I hope that those in the community will contribute to this thread in hopes of finding more possible solutions, refinements for solutions stated, and that the Devs will look at this and take it into serious consideration. The community is dwindling as is for one reason or another so by not alienating the colourblind fans, they might be able to have more people stay or better yet more join. Let's try to make this game more inclusive so that all can enjoy it!
PS: I will be adding suggestions and rephrasing suggestions as this thread progresses.

Yeah, they really should add this but they haven't because they're afraid people will abuse it; however letting as many players actually play their game as they can is way more important than worrying about color correction abuse. People will abuse anything no matter how innocent the intent is so I don't know why they don't just go through with it.

Exactly my point. More players = more money for them. I don't know why they don't do it.

I always see this, colourblind people having issues with corn. I'm colourblind too and I feel like I might as well just give up if I get rotten fields. There has to be something to it.
It does seem unfair. Nerf the corn already.

That could also work too actually, weirdly enough. Adding this to the suggestions section.

I apologize for this but bumping the thread. I'm not giving up this time until I get some kind of acknowledgement from the devs or forum mods.
