this is kinda interesting thread.
about 2 years ago, i was doing an op with the corp. my ceo said warp to me and beware of the light from the sun. I laughed when he said that, as i thought he was been funny but GOD. I was surprised about the amount of light from that sun. I litterally had to look away instantly and change direction of the camera. I remember after warping away my eyes itched for a while.
i havent warped to the sun in ages but i could imagine that with all the buff to space since then, its probably tough to be near the sun. we actually made a joke about it for a while.
so in some way i do agree with the opening post.

This is the RPG backstory for the upcoming cloak nerf. Tinfoil, anyone?

What I want to know, is how are your monitors configured such that it can blind you with brightness? Are you playing the game in a pitch black room?

Regarding ships being darker, I think a while ago, it was discussed that the further you were from high-sec the darker things became... so, 0.0 is... darker.

Carebears live in the light... awhhhh, all the better to see them by.

It's just the light itself that has been modified I believe, not the flare, so the sun itself should look the same.


sounds like a good solution... brighter balls of light or glare behind ships wouldnt' be fun at all but making the light have more effect on what it hits is a great idea

.... im not sure the balance was very good to begin with.. things seem to really glow intensely in the nasa pictures but maybe they do that for viewer benefit too.

My only problem is that at 30AU we shouldn't see more than a dot for many of these stars.

Blinded by the light
Warped out like a douche
Another carebear fears the light...

Tells me I got what it takes
Just give her some money with a double down
And she'll pay me right back, just have faith.

CCP turned up the Solar brightness in order to ferret-out the remaining WoD vampire coders.
Plus, they have put subliminal 3D messages in all Suns.
Things like "Pay subs", "Buy CCP new Cars"
Simple stuff.
In Highec, the subliminal messages are "Move to Nullsec"
So yeah, lights are up, messages are in, let the fun begin Blink
