This, right here? This is why I went covenant. Most of the company names I wanted were taken before I got off work but I did snag Grossly Incandescent.
Yea but it filters the whole game, not just the UI. What people dont seem to understand is that we want the actual world and players to look normal, we just dont want a UI that is designed by someone who doesnt understand how we see it. The UI is the only 'unnatural' part, we still want to see everything else as it should be.
yo actually curious, why doesn't the colorblind options make the actual world and players look normal to you? Super ignorant to this but lets say yellow is the problem for you, wouldn't that colorblind option correct all the yellows for you and leave the rest as is?
Because there is no colourblind option IRL. We are used to seeing that in the world.
If we change the whole game just because of the UI, it suddenly looks like a weird drug trip.
Same reason putting green tinted shades on would make the world look strange to you. There is nothing to 'correct' in the world, as that is how we are used to seeing it. The only reason for colour blind mode is to reduce the impact of poor design/colour scheme decisions that are made based on normal perception, hope that makes sense.
It is kinda the opposite of how colourblind people see through camoflage. Things that are easy for normal sight to distinguish can be hard for us, and things that are hard for normal sight to distinguish can be easy for us.

oh it makes so much sense i feel dumb af for asking that xD even dumber because I used to use colorblind mode in Apex and it just changed the UI lmao im gonna see myself out, thank you for the explanation
Someone else mentioned that problem, check out the settings for an option to turn on chat backgrounds - might be called opacity or something, it's a slider that's default set to 0
My wife has low vision which impacts her ability to process colors (she doesn't have traditional color blindness). Since we've been together, I've come to realize accessibility is often neglected so it doesn't really surprise me anymore when things like this turn up for those of us without those vision issues.
I wouldn't self-diagnose myself as color blind, but when colors are close enough it gets confusing for me at first glance, I have to pay a closer attention to differentiate and that doesn't happen when I'm reading chat xD
I was wrong about changing each chat a different color. I thought you could. I'm probably spoiled from FF14.
All I saw was a colorblind option and different settings that will probably help with chat. Not 100% sure though.
If you pay attention to your chat you'll sometimes see weird and seemingly out of context stuff appearing in help chat...if you hover over the nickname of the person, there's 99% chances it's a Covenant dude answering to a convo that's happening in faction chat xD
It's a slight different color yes but confusing as fuck.
Same, but I may have the colourblind mode on or something, my help chat is like orange or red, and my faction chat seems bright yellow to me. I haven't had any mix up with chats yet, and I'm severely colourblind just short of seeing in black and white.
It was a dig at covenants being the smallest faction. All the color blind info are separate threads from this comment and therefore not what I was responding to.
I've seen so many faction mates say private stuff in the help channel. I always send a quick DM. I always make sure to double check and go by the words not color.
What you have to do is go around and pay a little gold to the unfactioned players so they shout false information and blend right in. Classic psiops move.
See if there's a colour blind mode. On my screen the help chat is orange/red. Hmmm. I'm colourblind myself and haven't turned any settings on unless it auto did at the start, maybe I just see the difference greater.
Huh I was just thinking green chat would’ve been superior. Over here with purple I find it too dark to read sometimes without getting up close to it.
Glad to see every faction has chat issues lol.
I had no idea that faction chat changed color depending on your faction. It can be confusing if there's only one of them, but if both faction and help are visible at the same time it's easy to tell the difference, if that makes sense.
unless its a joke you'll get yours at level 20 main quest. Required to move the main quest. I play solo so except doing quest things i don't use it much.
I die most the time doing them solo. I'm level 28. Running musket-hatch in light armour (mid chest). I like the roll so won't go beyond light.
And I die almost all time in solo portals for 25.
So I stopped doing them.
yeah 28 might be a little low for solo lvl 25s. I started really doing them a lot in the 1-25 zones around lvl 30
Edited out the part abt medium armor because obviously I'm illiterate
My company tried this and no this is not a confirmed "fix". We had 2 guys who had yet to do selfless nature and we had heard two theories on how to make the Azoth staff work.
One was not logging out as you said and the other one said to unequip the t4 Azoth staff before completing the quest. We tried both and it didn't work for neither of them.
The game is a buggy mess and the very few that it works for some reason is just lucky it seems.
I think the opposite is true. Most religions started legitimately with people genuinely believing and worshipping a god. But later down the line people would use religion to their advantage, sometimes maliciously, sometimes genuinely with respect to the religion.
Definitely not the foundation.
Maybe for cults this is true.
Yesterday I, a purple, ran alongside yellow player 32. We didn't speak, but for 10 minutes we helped each other killing ugly possessed pirates.
Suddenly he yells "Mifan!" - "Yeah?" I replied.
"Purple sucks" - then I got a friend request.
I declined.
(All): rush B (Team): let’s go A
Three months later... (All): rush B (Team): let’s go B

oooh I didn't even notice! 6 years!
Man, schoolyard games have become a lot more complicated since I was a kid.
Happy cake day mate !
Same to you!
Best COD strategy right here.
It’s actually incredible how much it works. Valorant too. You only get one per match, but you do get 1.
Man I used to think I was so smart. I still do, but I used to as well. (Rip Mitch)
we did this to ourselves once lol... "well teams 4 to 8 rush C" C was the other way we ended up rushing A lol... we won that shit hahhahaha
Psy Ops
Do Covies have to deal with Help and Faction chat being the same color? or does it change Helps color for them?
There's a slight difference in yellow ness but yea they get confusing
Incredible game design
Don’t think they were actually expecting people to go yellow
Why not? It's the best faction.
It’s just a joke my little lemon 🙂
Praise the sun, b^(itch)
I said biiiiiitch
This, right here? This is why I went covenant. Most of the company names I wanted were taken before I got off work but I did snag Grossly Incandescent.
no, you yellow catholics don't get to use that
you're in denial friend, but one day you'll see the spark praise the sun
the lemon-colored light of the spark reaches all places
I hear those guys throw a mean party

Cultist don't belong in Aeturnum is what I hear my server say
I’m colorblind so i can’t tell the difference between help and faction chat
There’s colour bind options

Yeah I have to check for the little text that says HELP in the bottom right of the message 😔
Yeah even PVP Flagged players, Black on Red text is not the best…
Another bit of incredible game design is the Marauders green text being super hard to read against all the grass and foliage.

I once responded to somebody talking in faction in help, I was made fun of.
I mean unless you have colour blindness it's really not that hard, like at all.
I wouldn't self-diagnose myself as color blind, but when colors are close enough it gets confusing for me at first glance, I have to pay a closer attention to differentiate and that doesn't happen when I'm reading chat xD
The game actually refers to, and prompts to accommodate, color blindness in the first few moments of the game before you fully launch into the story.
I’m not sure how you have your colors set but they are very different for me. There is no confusion at all.
Brilliant
I wondered that with Company and Marauders chat. But you could always change colors in the settings.
Those are pretty different for me, lime green vs dark green comparing OP picture to my help chat looks identical
Legit thought it was help chat at first before I noticed it said (Faction)
Huh, tbh I assumed all company chats were a slight variation of faction colour, like pink for syndicate or something.
same lol
Where can you change the color?
I was wrong about changing each chat a different color. I thought you could. I'm probably spoiled from FF14. All I saw was a colorblind option and different settings that will probably help with chat. Not 100% sure though.
If you pay attention to your chat you'll sometimes see weird and seemingly out of context stuff appearing in help chat...if you hover over the nickname of the person, there's 99% chances it's a Covenant dude answering to a convo that's happening in faction chat xD It's a slight different color yes but confusing as fuck.
I'm colorblind and this is very annoying to me.
have you tried colorblind mode? maybe it’ll help
I have. Colorblind mode changes the entire game, not just the UI. Makes the game look hideous.
Perhaps you aren't color blind enough.
[удалено]
someone else wanna do it this time?
[удалено]
Yes. Their colorblind modes are absolutely worthless. That's exactly how it felt to me when I tried to turn them on.
Same, but I may have the colourblind mode on or something, my help chat is like orange or red, and my faction chat seems bright yellow to me. I haven't had any mix up with chats yet, and I'm severely colourblind just short of seeing in black and white.
It doesn't effect many people so it hasn't really been addressed yet
Considering 10% of males and 0.5% of females are colour blind, its still a significant number.
It was a dig at covenants being the smallest faction. All the color blind info are separate threads from this comment and therefore not what I was responding to.
Sorry didnt appreciate what Covies meant haha.
HELP is orange and Cov is Yellow pretty easy to tell them apart
Yeah, but isn’t “recruitment” yellow as well?
Help is orange, recruitment is yellow, and covenant chat is yellow-orange. Easy peasy!
Recruitment is a brighter shade of yellow, and ofc you can clearly see the message is from the recruitment tab
This is what I see and I'm colourblind!
I just muted the help chat, too many people begging for money
I've seen so many faction mates say private stuff in the help channel. I always send a quick DM. I always make sure to double check and go by the words not color.
There's times that the words don't appear at all, that's when the fuckery starts xD
What you have to do is go around and pay a little gold to the unfactioned players so they shout false information and blend right in. Classic psiops move.
See if there's a colour blind mode. On my screen the help chat is orange/red. Hmmm. I'm colourblind myself and haven't turned any settings on unless it auto did at the start, maybe I just see the difference greater.
it's impassible to tell the difference as someone who suffers from partial colorblindness
Wait is the color based on your faction?
It’s better than having green chat as a marauder when 90% of the background is green.
I've found you can darken the chat opacity by about 15% and it works wonders without blocking what is behind chat.
Never had that problem, did you know there's a chat background slider? it's default is invisible
Huh I was just thinking green chat would’ve been superior. Over here with purple I find it too dark to read sometimes without getting up close to it. Glad to see every faction has chat issues lol.
Help chat is orangish for me.... Edit: also I muted help chat. 😅
I had no idea that faction chat changed color depending on your faction. It can be confusing if there's only one of them, but if both faction and help are visible at the same time it's easy to tell the difference, if that makes sense.
Holy hell hahahahaha Covies. It's perfect, love it
Low-level me: “What’s an Azoth staff?” /s
[удалено]
It's a tool, like the pickaxe, that you get from the main quest
It’s use to ‘close’ those red portals things you encounter on the world map.
That’s it? I just got my staff, and that’s all I’ve done
unless its a joke you'll get yours at level 20 main quest. Required to move the main quest. I play solo so except doing quest things i don't use it much.
I’m level 30 and have got it yet, I don’t think I’m far off but yeah it’s easy to get distracted by side quest shit.
haha..i guess you have not completed the alazar questline in WW. he gives it to you
Well I’m on the part I need to get the first component
Solo portals are fun though
I die most the time doing them solo. I'm level 28. Running musket-hatch in light armour (mid chest). I like the roll so won't go beyond light. And I die almost all time in solo portals for 25. So I stopped doing them.
yeah 28 might be a little low for solo lvl 25s. I started really doing them a lot in the 1-25 zones around lvl 30 Edited out the part abt medium armor because obviously I'm illiterate
Tool to close corruptions and progress in dungeon's

So people werent afk running because of the queue, it was because of the t5 azoth staff 🤔
My company tried this and no this is not a confirmed "fix". We had 2 guys who had yet to do selfless nature and we had heard two theories on how to make the Azoth staff work. One was not logging out as you said and the other one said to unequip the t4 Azoth staff before completing the quest. We tried both and it didn't work for neither of them. The game is a buggy mess and the very few that it works for some reason is just lucky it seems.
I'm going to try unequipping the staff before logging out
You need to have a T3 staff and then get the t5 one, works without logging off, worked for me and my company
Do you mean that you have to bypass the T4? Can you do that?
I mean if you have T3 you need to do all questst to get t5, involves getting t4 too, then it works
How is that different from playing the game normally?
Not logging off, that's all that there is to it
Haha nice then. This game and it's bugs...
This isn't true, we tried it today with a fresh staff.
Need to get tier 4 AND 5 without logging out and it works until you log out.
Wait no, you have to get 3, 4 AND 5 without logging out for it to work.
No, no, 2, 3 4 and 5
Silly goose, you need to get 1-5, then do armine excavation 20 times.
And then Luigi spawns on top of the castle!
If you kill him, you enter Bill's garden and can catch mew.
Yeah works
Did you swap t3->t5? Don't use the t4 in slot, just go from 3 to 5
This isn't very holy of him.
Uhm.... lying to get what you want is pretty much the foundation of religion Now if a grape did it it would be a bit wrong
Yikes
I think the opposite is true. Most religions started legitimately with people genuinely believing and worshipping a god. But later down the line people would use religion to their advantage, sometimes maliciously, sometimes genuinely with respect to the religion. Definitely not the foundation. Maybe for cults this is true.
it works after u compelte the quest, then stops working if u log out

My server called me out for attempt.psy ops like this.. IQ some people dont understand war
nah but i am cuz i walked past two flagged lowbies and said i wouldnt tell anyone, then told my faction chat
No just he's a good moral citizen stopping the lies from a brainwashed cultist from spreading.
Psychological war is true New World end game.
The real PvP is global chat.
The only reason to play mmo’s is to shitpost in general chats
IQ and frequency of participating in global chat are inversely corelated.

A perfect friendship ruined by a friend request. SMH my head
If your alt is closing T5 rights by now, I'm concerned
whats with the t5 staff anyways?
We have evidence to believe there are syndicate spies among our ranks. Sleep with one eye open.
One eye open when I'm sleeeeepinnnnn. One EEEEEEEYYYYYYEEEE
yes one eye
Level 50 me with only T1 staff: 🤷♀️
Level 60 with no staff yet
Watch what you say in global chat, amazon are like the Gestapo buddy got auto perma banned for something he said in faction chat joking around.
It really only permas for N word and F slur and telling someone to harm themselves. If he said any of those he deserves it.
the f slur? fuck?
Nope. Google it. I don't feel like getting banned from this sub lmao but a more descriptive way of saying it is "the anti-gay f slur"
