So what? Uniform lighting is the problem, glowsticks are not the solution. Why does my reaction time have to be .01s when everyone else's is .05 and without brightskins I'd be .04 with them at .08? Acquiring your target shouldn't be as easy as looking for a neo light over their head. We might as well have a mod that puts team symbols over everyone that flash and blink and move up and down in neon lights and colors. Would that make it "more fair" for you?Bullet10k said:Some of you arguing against brightskins are missing the point. Bskins make you faster to REACT, and trace your opponent. It's not just visible or not, it's how visible they are, and how fast you can react.
WTF? Are you serious? The reason you can't see them is because 98% of their model is SEE THROUGH. If everyone was invisible, everyone would have the same visibility, 98%, and it wouldn't make any difference. Who cares how fast you acquire targets or how well you shoot? If everyone has the same level of visibility, then it could take 5 minutes for all it mattered (besides the obvious effect on gameplay at that level). I'd say anything that makes it harder to snipe from long distances is a good thing.... But once again that is not a "pro" opinion.Let me put it this way: When your opponent is invisible (the ghostly white shimmer effect is still there), what makes it so hard to trace the player? Ofcourse they're visible, you can see their white shimmers, but what makes it so hard to shoot at the player as opposed to if their not invisible? Imagine what would happen if everyone was invisible as normal, we could still see the shimmers, but we won't react, trace, or shoot as good as if they were normal. Think about it...
OMFG.... It's so you don't have to learn how to acquire targets. I suppose you would also say it should be as simple to snipe you in the head through a crack in a wall across the map as it would be to plaster you in the face with flak from 2 inches away...And the thing about "it makes things easier to learn" or "it's so people don't have to learn it" is dumb, because like I said, the purpose of bskins is totally different, it's to balance the playing field, and make you react as fast as you can. Nothing to "learn" because even if you learned to see players, you'd still react, and trace players if you used bskins.
