What is up with Omicron? (Terminid)

[Sokaku]

This planet is just weird. It lists no modifiers but it is covered in a weak fog where even on the radar nothing shows up. Not bug ping dots or the red aura for nests. Visibility at daytime is manageable, but at night it is a royal mess since stuff isn't showing up on the map. Does anyone else have issues with the foggy map on this planet? This wasn't anything like spores, unless it is a bug in joining a game as/after a spore spewer is taken out?

These planets are why some people quit the game.
Its not acceptable to have this thick fog in an FPS.

I like the fog and other interesting modifiers. People make the game boring by complaining about stuff like meteors and sandstorms and then you have nothing but the same boring planets all the time.

Thankyou for the clown award for not being able to see Fog from a perspective outside of your own.

I noticed you have 654 hours played.. in a game of 3 months old.
Its fair to say you dont do much else.

i really dont like when the satellite map is hidden.
i avoid those, it just makes the missions irritating.

the 3rd person view fog is... not great but tolerable.
not a fan but it does add difficulty.
versus bots it becomes an absolute nightmare because bots shoot through it.

fog is absolute ass on any planets, and it's there 90% of the time, it's just not fun when it on constantly, and the enemy just ignores it

Though doesn't that normally show up as a modifier on the planet? (Like Fog, acid rain) At least for me Omicron doesn't show as having any modifiers, or are there temporary modifiers that show up somewhere else on the planet or mission screen?? Come to think of it I haven't noticed anything like restricted stratagems or longer call in times etc. that have been mentioned. The only other oddity I have seen when joining some missions is that certain enhancements cannot be selected. (no one else on the team has them selected but they are disabled for some reason)

I suspect I am missing something either specific to the mission or such.

One other pet peeve on the map when it shows the green missions that friends are in, it shows regardless of what difficulty you have selected so no way of knowing what level of mission they are playing. (Also have gotten green icons for games that I have no friends playing in) Not to mention when you do join a game and the host selects a mission, there is no info about what mission is actually selected. The map / mission selection info could use some detail / love.

Edit: Ah, Ok when hosting a mission these operation modifiers show up, but I don't see any indication of modifiers for mssions in progress or when a host is selecting missions. Joining games is going in blind... :(

Fog sucks
Especially on bots missions. Does anyone have a tip on the settings completely disabling it?

Increase brightness of the screen in game options.
It doesn't disable it, but makes it see through for some reason, at least a little bit.
