http://na.leagueoflegends.com/news/new-color-palettes-available-colorblind-players we need these kind of support from the company. My friend is red/green color blind and it's so painful to watch him place a CC at the expansion. It literally takes him 10 seconds due to the indistinguishable red/green pallets. | ||

edit: btw, for those who are really bothered by this condition, you can always try playing around with the hue and/or digital vibration settings. | ||

My uncle, father, and brother all have experience dealing with colorblindness (uncle lost out on pilot school because he's colorblind, slightly, in one eye iirc), and while I'm not colorblind (thankfully), my condolences to anyone who fights it daily. Blizzard should add color-blind functionality, but I'm not sure how that would affect the competitive aspect of play. ![]() | ||

I was going to say that. In the meantime colourblind folks you'll have to get a friend to sit next to you and help you out on that one =( Blizzard should add color-blind functionality, but I'm not sure how that would affect the competitive aspect of play. ![]() If a feature was implemented maybe tournaments could accept doctor's notes for colour blindness and allow you to use the setting. Or tournament maps themselves could be edited. | ||

Talk to an official admin of the game and make a topic of the response that you gain. Im sick of seeing poststhat demoralis a company for an issue they arnt aware of. | ||

The nukee only sees the same tiny dot from BW. Nukes in SC2 do 300 (+200 vs structures) damage. In Brood War they did 750 damage. | ||

Nice thread! :D Thank god you are not on my server lol. I suffer from some mystifying technical issue that means I don't get the "Nuclear launch detected" warning, AND the colourblindness handicap ![]() | ||

If they change it to purple, won't this make problems for people with color blindness in the pink-bieber spectrum? | ||

If they change it to purple, won't this make problems for people with color blindness in the pink-bieber spectrum? The ideal solution is a "color blindness' toggle that changes the color scheme throughout the whole game to reduce the effects for red/green color blindness, similar to what league of legends has done. Someone else mentioned placing cc/nexus, and I imagine there are other situations that could be adjusted as well. Personally, I think issues like this should be considered bugs in the game. Imagine if there was heavy graphics artifacting for people with amd processors. Blizzard would quickly move to fix the problem, and people with color blindness had even less to do with the bug then people owning amd processors. | ||
