The lighting now looks incredibly washed out.

The lighting changes are very bad. Every map looks incredibly washed out. Like a white dusty filter over everything. Looks like Nuketown on COD or something, or nuke town on modded rust. It feels like I'm in a map editor with lighting disabled. It's awful.

I can't stand to play the game anymore with it looking this bad and washed out. It was one of the best looking games ever and now is an eyesore.

BTW, there is a fake, AI-generated comparison screenshot going around about how good it looks. PMO.

    Notice the brown/white look to the grass? How it looks like nuketown on modded rust on min settings.  It's insane.

    Compared to lighting from last week:

    Was the most beautiful game ever.

  • These lighting changes should be optional. I am not going to play the game any more in this state.  Every map has this ultra washed-out, dust-covered look now. 

    If it's going to look this bad, it should run at 800fps. Effectively we have a game with no lighting now.

    I am 100% onboard with this. I thought this was one of the most beautiful game, but now after the update the game is shockingly lacks depth and lighting. The indirect lighting and just the atmosphere of the game has gone. Alley ways and between buildings of new Sobek city is incrediblly dull and lacks lighting. 

     bridges lost all its vibe and beautiful lighting and somehow the bridge coloumn looks so dull and low res where as before the patch it was completely beautiful. I was so scared to try other maps. Such a nightmare and shame that EA listens to bunch of streamers complaining about everything, sure they could lower the world's brightness but they ruined entire games lighting and graphics. I hate to play the game now. I hope they fix this issue or at least give us a toggle to revert back the changes to lighting, I prefer the game the way it was despite its brightness issue. That i could fix with settings.

    Thanks

    the lighting in the campaign is even worse. especialy the firestation. you go outside its blinding..you go inside its black

  • Agreed, Playing the game since beta on PS5 Pro, I never thought slightly high brightness when exiting the buildings would cause EA and Battlefield studios or who ever that was encharge to destroy the entire lighting of the game which was very realistic and beautiful. Please Dice patch this as soon as possible. The games looks like a cheap free to play game now. I'm not touching it until they revert the lighting or at least give us an option.
