Spiders on the new map triggering arachnophobia

same, no way im playing the new maps so likely wont be playing till we get a new map in 3 seasons, seriously arachnophobia is very common i don't get why they thought adding this to the game was  good idea 

like many people, i suffer with arachnophobia and i can't play the new map, people say "just avoid them" but thats impossible in this sort of game, you can't control where the area falls or how your team will move or where fights will push you you're forced to interact with the whole map, and its not a case of "just don't shoot the pods" because again you cant control every other player on the map. 

the solutions to this are removal of the spiders, would be nice but maybe impractical or lets us toggle an option to make them something else, grounded a game by obsidian allows you to make spider grey blobs while it wont fix all the issues it will help many of us feel ok playing the game, and arachnophobia isn't some small reaction or fright it can be pure fear and a terror. 

As an arachnophob I tried toughing it out, don't shoot them, avoid areas where they are but I cannot. 

Thier in the streams I watch, the videos I watch, even on the main splash screen! You cannot avoid them

At the start of the season people would shoot the spiders all the time because it's the new toy. Then they stopped because of the noise it made.

Now people are doing it again to make rotating harder.

I play pubs, if I tell them "don't shoot the eggs pls" they will either do it by accident or on purpose. And even if they listen you can't tell your teammates "don't use this mechanic to conveintly get some ammo and attachments", "don't shoot those eggs to distract them or to cut them off while rotating" it's frustrating and limiting.

I have to reiterate you cannot avoid them. They are between almost every POI. Far too many times I've rotated to that underground lab near the porwler pit and the spiders would already be triggered and walking around.

I'm tired of being on edge, constantly looking over my back hoping a stray shot or grenade doesn't trigger them.

Please just add a setting model swap the spiders with nessies, make the eggs beachballs. It's one of the most common phobias, I'm one of the vocal few this probably effects much more people. Something needs to be done

I really wish there was a arachnophobia mode in the game ☹️

Bumping this up because I haven't heard a single thing about this even being addressed. I literally haven't played the game or watched any content on the game since the update because of the spiders and it's a problem. Like EA could at least leave a reply to this thread and acknowledge the problem so I don't keep my hopes up for an update that doesn't seem to even be on their radar ffs
