So being color blind definately isn't fun. I try and try to explain to people how diffucult it is going through day to day activities with my "color deficiency" as it's called. I have monochromacy color blindness. My type is very rare, but any of you that know me, know I have the worst luck. Essentially, I see almost nothing as it is. The only color that I can see with absolutely no problems, is yellow, which has become my favorite color over the years by default. I see black and white fine too, but they aren't colors technically. Playing video games is especially difficult. Dark maps and levels within a game will make me want to punch babies. Games where multiplayer consists of one red team and one blue team(Halo), or colored objectives on the map really frustrates me. Often i get kicked out of games for team killing because I can't tell the difference. If developers could just maybe put a colorblind mode in the options like battlefield 2 had on the 360, life would be a lot easier. Make one team like a yellow, and the other team can be whatever, at least I'll be able to tell the difference. Games like Gears of War, which i play very often, really gets to me. I'm not terrible at Gears, but i could be a hell of a lot better. Too many shades of gray on the screen literally hurts my eyes on some maps, and I believe whoever designed the bullet marsh map should be curb stomped. The characters blend in to any wall, barrier, car, whatever. If someone stops moving while I'm looking for them, I'm completely lost. Below is a chart showing what normal people see on the left, and what people like me see on the right. I hope people can understand and respect my handicap. haha.
