When someone selects a legend just before the game starts there's a bright flash of light before it shows their animation.This flash is strong enough that it actually hurts my eyes somehow, along with the loudness of the selection I end up minimising the whole thing until the game starts.I'm using a gaming monitor and have tried multiple settings, only a grey and washed out setting does the trick, but then the game itself looks like burnt toast.Is there any way to just reduce that flash to a significantly darker, greyer hue? I'm not photosensitive but it's still strong, maybe it could even give some a seizure.

I've noticed occasionally that people like to spam the character select and this causes the flash to happen every time, I actually have to look away even though I don't have any particular problem with flashing lights.Still thinking about anyone with epilepsy this is a huge issue as is could quite easily cause an attack.Doesn't happen very often but when someone does it it's pretty unpleasant.

Thank you for your feedback on this, @AtroxWake

Seizure causing character flash fix it. Character selection you can spam reclicking on a character and cause a Seizure I almost had one a few times

This issue is actually pretty serious that it should be patched instantly, it's been brought to light many times but respawn or should i say reyawn, (cause all they do is rub there eyes and yawn) doesn't do anything. EA knows the numbers and money this game brought in right off the bat and should be riding reyawns * to fix bugs and pump the content out but nothing, absolutely nothing is being done. All reyawns dev team is just chasing each other around the office with light sabers playing star wars!

A quiet Character selection Screen would be appreciated, It only interupts people trying to talk in the Next state and it keeps Taxi Drivers awake.

You can now mute squad members at the Legend selection screen. Are you referring to a no sound at all option?

That flash needs to go, I have seen many 8yo edgelords spam select characters to make that flash constant which is super annoying and hard on my already weak eyes

We've let the team about this and they're aware of the feedback. We don't have any updates around this right now though.
