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?

For people that don't know, when someone is colour blind it doesn't mean that everything he's looking at is blurry, it means that person that is colour blinded can't perceive differences between some of the colours.
Also it's going to be an option in the game, Color-blind Mode isn't going to be on all the time, it will be optional in case someone is colour blineded :)

it's prolly going to be an option you can turn on and off. And colorblind mode wouldn't make it blurry, it would just Change some of the colors that cb ppl can't see

That's good. I personally am not affected by color-blindness, but it's very decent of them to do that.
