You do have a slider, it's called the brightness control on your television.

  • Why should I have to dim my tv and make the picture quality worse every time I want to play this one game when no other games, including previous bungie games, have given me trouble? I'm not even sure that would help since I don't run my tv in "torch mode" like they do in stores to attract eyeballs. It is calibrated for accuracy and is not running at full brightness. The HUD is annoying, and given the option I would make it more transparent even if I was on a LCD tv. Aside from transparency, the hud should just be hidden when not in combat. Why do I need to see that my super is ready when I'm farming mats and haven't fired a shot in 10 minutes? After I started noticing burn-in, and before I quit, I would start wasting supers as soon as I got them to keep that yellow bar from being displayed constantly.

  • So you don't get burn in's obviously.

  • My question was essentially "Why should I have to dim my tv to prevent burn in?" "So you don't get burn in" is not an answer. Destiny is a product that Bungie presumably wants me to continue to spend time and money on. Without burn-in mitigation on THEIR end, I ain't playin or payin for shit. And judging by this thread, I'm not alone.

  • Dude are you serious or what? Bungie didn't make the tv you bought, they made the game. Anyone who knows anything about these sets knows bright colors, too much going on, too many pixels on the screen has the potential to cause a burn in effect if your brightness is too high.

  • Then why don't I have this problem with any other game?? Before this tv I had an older and crappier plasma where I played hundreds of hours of Halo, Call of Duty, Skryim, etc and never had burn in. The hud in this game is excessively bright and excessively opaque. You have no idea what causes burn in. The only thing that causes burn in is bright, STATIC, images. "too much going on" - this is the opposite of what causes burn in. A tv showing pure static (aka lots of stuff going on) will never have burn in. In fact some people use static to fix burn in. "too many pixels on the screen" - gibberish. Resolution has nothing to do with burn in Like I said before, my brightness is not too high. There is no reason a game that I played 2 hrs a day or less should burn in, when other games I played 3-4 hrs a day did no damage whatsoever. Why are you arguing against this? Does it hurt you to have the option to make the HUD transparent? Or to turn off the HUD when not in combat? If you don't want to use it, don't.
