yeah but woulldnt the wind kinda thin out the oil makeing it easyier to see?
Try applying a dark coat of grease on the windshield of your car, and see if you can look forwrad through that.
Having the ENGOIL hit and spraying it all over my windshield instantly is getting frustrating.
I agree that it is frustrating. But in a game where life isn't much of a strong motive and death is nothing to fear, there's gotta be some alternative motive to make the damage mean something.
The hampering of visibility creates a strong motive for people to realize that the damage to the oil cans is something you can't just laught at - you have to go back home.

Think about it. Why are people frustrated at the oil streaks in the first place?
Because, they don't think the damage is serious, and they want to fight as if nothing happened. Just keep an eye on the oil guage as if it was an ammo counter, and when it runs low, rtb.
The oil streaks makes sure that people see engine oil damage as something serious.
In other words, you're supposed to be frustrated about it. It's probably exactly what HTC had in mind, besides the eye-candy factor. There's no reason for them to change it.
Maybe add a one or two variety of oil stain patterns (as this is merely adding a new alpha texture file), but the streaks themselves, are here to stay. And I like it that way.
