Do you play in ultrabrite 3X or 5X?

5x capable but I leave it in normal mode because something has to have a sense of normalcy in my life.

I had catarac surgery a year ago,both eyes,was legally blind before the operation. I had great eyesite after for about 2 months then lost all close vision.
So I saw the eye Dr. again and was told I needed reading glasses,I told him I used the computer alot and he adjusted the focal lenght so I could see my monitor properly.Saddly this didnt solve the reading problem,so I have 2 pairs of glasses,1 for computer,the other for reading.

The only other thing to do is get a 42 to 60 in.LCD monitor...

if ya cant see that then ur blind......

This is why I think the 'new' water is crap. I've been in the SEA racing and some of the maps still have beautiful blue water that you can see objects against.

Generally, the last 2 updates ( the major update, and the one right after to fix the first one -- and didn't completly) left us with some visual difference in terms of distance viewing. Prior to coming into icon range, cons are harder to spot. Alot harder. They have to be much close than they used to, to register.

Also, a bit harder against the new terrain (which I like, for the most part) and definitely harder against the new water, which IMO, stinks, if for no other reason than it's so drab and dreay lookin.

Also, they seem to have increased a haze affect which really irritates my eyes when trying to squint into the distance. During twilight hours (in the game) it feels like flying in a light fog sometimes. Not fun.

Been doing that for years, helps a little but for some reason I have to zoom back out usually. The zoom feature makes my aim even worse, as if that could be possible.
