Not sure if what i saw is true, but if it is, i hope it doesnt go through. People are visible enough and making them brighter in dark area looks jarring. Also, with all the ways people can get marked, you want to take away abilities to be sneaky and help the team. People complain so much about dying too fast. I like the ttk, many friends do as well. It makes the people making stupid decisions pay and cost the team. However, I see many complain they keep dying and cant get anywhere. Making visibility of the soldier better wont change how they play, only how much more they stick out. The situation will get worse for them. It impacts me and my group from trying to sneak around or pull of some feats against some pretty bad odds. Its a detriment overall to the game, for both sides.
If what I saw was not accurate, then whatever, but I hope we dont have soldiers that basically glow in the dark. Shadows are to hide and take advantage of, not light you up like a beacon
