My eye's actually ache. No hyperbole.
Just played a mission with a flame psyker, a lightning psyker, and a flamer zealot.

My eye's! I now have a head ache and my eyes feel like I've been staring into the sun. No hyperbole, really, my eye's actually ache.

Not something that has ever happened playing a PC game before.

What ever you've done to psykers please hotfix it!

I'm just going to leave any games with one in until somethings changed with them. I seriously think this may pose a health risk. No hyperbole.

Also, I couldn't see what was going on half the time, so it's seriously obstructive to gameplay. Though the health issue, yes, really, is obviously a bigger concern.

You can play another game or just not play with surge staff.

They are working on it.

They acknowledged day 1 of the change that it was bad because a lot of people got headaches or motion sickness from the change so it will be either reverted or changed.

Well... you missed out on Vermintide 1 - the head sway was so severe that people were vomiting on their keyboards.

Dont forget in VT2 we had to make a mod to get rid of it for about 3 1/2 years before they added an option to turn it off.

I played vermintide 1 and 2, the unpleasant head bob isn't even vaguely comparable to this, at least not for me. I did use the mod in 2 to remove some of the head bob, but just as I found it annoying, not as I came away from a missions with blurred eyesight and sore eyes.

I might give that a go, thanks.

I play on low settings. If you are using FSR 2.0 you have rights to sue the Fatshark. It's that horrible.

Oh I agree with you.

Just saying they kind of have a history of this nonsense.
At least they are looking at it since it was immediately an issue for many people.

I've played a few missions with a surge staff psyker since the changes, and it's very unpleasant. A surge, plus the flame one, and a flamer zealot, in one of the darker maps, was on a whole nother level.

Hopefully they make it a priority. I'm not putting myself through that again!

I don't know I guess you just lack those special eyes.

Feels like I'll lack them altogether if I go through that again.
