Modern Warfare 3 Gets Color-blind Mode

4.5
For Call of Duty fans who suffer from color blindness, Sledgehammer Games is developing a Color Blind Assist option to be included in Modern Warfare 3. Sledgehammer VP and COO Michael Condrey addressed the following:

Research suggests that as much as 6% of the general population suffers from Color Blindness, or more accurately Color Vision Deficiency. Men (9-12%) are 20x more likely to be afflicted than women (0.25-1%). Those numbers vary depending on which source you quote, but we estimate that nearly a million gamers are playing Call of Duty every day with this issue. I am happy to report that we are working on a Color Blind Assist option for Modern Warfare 3.

Although this announcement might be overlooked by gamers, it is lenient for those who suffer from the color defects that might exclude them from enjoying Modern Warfare 3 as much as those who do not suffer from it. It’s pretty nice of them to feature this option, isn’t it?

I only used it to make my tv go crazy in BO but does this mean a possible 3D option as well?

Also, well done IW for doing something nice.
