      It's funny, but I had to surrender on a 1v1 neroxis snow map because my eyes said no.

        @sheikah Yes, blue is high-frequency, more energy, there are solutions for all operating systems to reduce blue light when you are about to go to sleep.

            Adding to this thread, I also think that it's really hard to see mex locations on snowy mapgens.

            I have to strain my eyes a lot more than other map types to see the mex spots and over time have noticed on multiple occasions that I, or someone I'm in a call with, miss a mex or two on these types of maps.

                I assume you both play with bloom off?

                  @BlackYps @Jip Can we have a toggle that changes the color of the mex to something like a dull-red? Bit similar to the toggle for team colours.

                  Should help since the contrast between a red and white is significantly better than with the green/yellow we have now. If you're wanna be all fancy, could have it auto-detect on maps that use snow textures.

                  "Design is an iterative process. The required number of iterations is one more than the number you have currently done. This is true at any point in time."

                      i remember seeing this on the forums a while back but cant find it
                      anyway, snow maps are too bright. when can we expect this to be fixed?

                      Either turn your screen brightness down for snow maps or wear sunglasses.

                      I wouldn't advise too dark a shade of sunglasses though, you want the ones with a mild shade that dims the light by say, 5-10%.
