Bungie PLEASE the colourblind options seriously need expanded upon

While I’m glad they’re in the game in the first place, they really [b]need[/b] to be expanded upon to include weapon reticles. As someone who is especially weak to reds I find it [b]very[/b] difficult when 90% of the weapon reticles are RED. gambit invader? they're basically invisible with the RED plastered all over my screen and around them. the same goes for Highlighted targets with wish-ender or truesight it’s essentially just a legendary bow that takes up an exotic slot for us who are weak to red as it’s almost impossible to make out the “highlights” most of the time.

  • Good luck been asking for stuff like this from destiny 1. Sick of not being able to snip properly because the scoped reticle blends in go what I'm aiming at.

  • I am red-green color blind and I have two thoughts on this: 1) Radar was really the only issue I had without colorblind mode on. I wish I could make [b]just the radar [/b]more opaque so the red wouldn't be such of an issue. 2) The background colors of certain items and weapons look [b][i]terribly ugly[/i][/b] when colorblind mode is on. Green weapons become brown. I've played other games where colorblind mode not only helps me with the reds and greens but actually makes the colors [i]look better[/i]. Not the case in Destiny 2.

  • I know there isn't much help now in gamw but a little life hack may be to put a tiny piece of tack over your red dot reticle on your screen.

    • I find myself moving the reticule to a lighter part of the screen just to check that I really have a red dot there. Mars is the worst place for me and the raids.

    • Agreed. Thank you for posting this. I only see black / white / grey. Shades. Makes some things (raids especially) difficult without an explanation and folks understanding what I see vs what they see.

    • I can't see the circle I need to call out in the Leviathan raid's gauntlet section regardless of my colorblind filter, and I've tried all the in-game options. I literally have to just figure it out based on brightness.

      • As someone who doesn't have a problem, but still prefers protanotopia (or whatever it's called) just for the radar brightness change I'm with you. Hip fire color choice is nice but why doesn't it change for ADS as well. Also.. The intensity of the color or shade & size should be customizable to some extent imo.

          [b]Since i cant edit my post due to moderator or admin already editing it I will put this here [/b] @O Witchena O could you please update the post for me? _________________________________________________________________________________ Edit: To Avoid Confusion I am refering to your weapons reticle when you [b]aim down sights[/b] [b][i]NOT[/i][/b] the crosshair in the middle of your screen at all times. Also the other people in this thread bring up very valid points about other accessibility features needing tweaking __________________________________________________________________________________ While I’m glad they’re in the game in the first place, they really [b]need[/b] to be expanded upon to include weapon reticles. As someone who is especially weak to reds (Protanopia) I find it [b]very[/b] difficult when 90% of the weapon reticles are RED, it is very easy to lose track of where your aiming and causes [b]unnecessary[/b] frustration. Gambit invader? well I better go hide because they're basically invisible with the RED plastered all over my screen and the RED smoke like effect around them, Maybe it highlights the invader for normal colour vision people but for Protans like me you're just giving them a free kill as they're [i]impossible[/i] to spot. The same goes for Highlighted targets with wish-ender or truesight it’s essentially just a legendary bow that takes up an exotic slot for us who are weak to red as it’s almost [i]impossible[/i] to make out the “highlights” most of the time. Customisable reticles/highlights would absolutely aleviate a lot of the [b]unnecessary[/b] headache/Frustration of being a colourblind Destiny 2 player I imagine these are very easy adjustments to make and it would mean the world for us to not to be at a complete disadvantage due to our genes :)

          • They need to add fully customizable crosshairs and coming from a red green color blind person try the protampia color bland filter. It changed up a lot of reds and helps with most thing except that red cross raid when on a target

              Along with your a Light Warnings. I have an Adopted brother with Epilepsy and he's made it clear he can't play the game. And when I asked why, he said Light Warnings ARE NOT BEING GIVEN. That or he's right when he says other Fantasy Games know how to use Certian shades so as NOT to set off people. He LEGIT can't play because of health reasons. And your guys Warnings are crappy. Just BEING HONEST. Color Blind Setting, Light Warnings, Contrasting Issues ect ect The Accessibility Functions need an upgrade.

              • I remember when d1 first came out it didn’t even have a colorblind mode... the one we do have is junk it helps a little bit but I still struggle a lot with blue / purple red / green.... Back when I played cod in the mid 2000’s it was perfect, not sure why bungie can’t come up with a good system...

                • I have 70 Leviathan clears and only one in the Void at Calus. I just can't see well enough in there to make out the symbols in time to do my job. I also have problems making out the edges of ledges in places like the Ascendant plane and the Whisper Mission. I'm of two minds about things like this. I'd like to be able to tweak settings so that I could see better, but I also believe that the good of the many outweighs the good of the few. I can't honestly set a high priority on this kind of thing. That's just my opinion. I'd much prefer they put their time into making sure that they succeed when it comes to implementing sunsetting and other changes in a way that improves the game.

                • They added the ability to change crosshair colors almost a year ago on Xbox. So I would assume this is also on all other platforms. I made mine bright green so that I don't have a dark red reticle on a dark background.

                  • I totally agree. The colour blind options need a lot of work. Like 8% of all males that have some colour blind issues, I too am slightly colour blind in faint pinks and green colours. Light pink reticles (i.e. Whisper) on red dominant planets is a major PITA and easy to lose in the background. Secondly, things like Running the Gauntlet and having pale green or pink colours for which symbol is lit up is also a PITA.
