Does turning off Motion Blur give an advantage?

Do you realise that for some people updating their pc just isn't at the top of their priority list of their budjets?

So, let me get this straight...you're telling me that my 13 FPS is an ADVANTAGE? Believe me, I'd much rather have the blur.bazoulle said:
No. The LISTED system requirements are pretty lax. But as countless people on this forum have pointed out, the game is not running acceptably for many who have systems above (some well above) the listed requirements.Wk~ said:

I have mine set on D3D, why? Because I was having unplayably low fps on some maps. So when I searched the forums, the OFFICIAL SOLUTION (http://www.redorchestragame.com/forum/showthread.php?t=2924) was to turn from D3D 9 to D3D. So there, its the devs responsibility to ensure that those that do not have the best pc in the world can play without a unfair advantage or disadvantage. I'm sure this will be one of the top priority bug fixes in the upcomming patch.
*EDIT* When shot at I get no visual effect at all (nope not even darkening of screen). Just the whistle of the bullet going by me.

Hrm, now that I think about it it is actually a DISadvantage to have blur off.
Why? You might ask. Well, becuase it makes it alot harder to know when you are under fire
. Knowing when you are under fire is often key to survival. If you dont know you are being supressed then you are likely to do something stupid like stand up and get shot in the face.
Natural selection at its finest.

You know when your under fire because your screen flashes black.

I've got blur turned off, simply because my fps will usually fall down into the single digits everytime it kicks in.

Screen darkening sucks, seriously. I was forced to use it in the mod.
The first few times it seems better but pretty soon you realize it's absolutely terrible.

Agreed. You can still kind of aim in the general direction through blur (especially now that blur affects your GUN too), but darkening just makes everything hard to see.

People are acting like this is cheating. I have no choice, and to be honest, I'd rather have the immersive factor of the motion blur, the better graphics, the lack of lag, more than 10 fps under stressful situations etc... But what I would really like is to move out of my parents home (cash money)...

it's not that people with poor frame rates are the problem, it's the people who have the game running fine but use the option to "cheat"
when they use it they get like 40-60 FPS + no blur= bad mojo

It's not cheating if it's a standard variable that can be set by the client. It may well be an exploit and some server admins and players would find it objectionable but unless the devs declare a client-side variable a "cheat" and disable it for on-line gaming you'll have to live w/it by either enforcing the ruleset at your server or forcing it via server-side scripting (if that's possible in this game).
Remember...cheating is doing something to modify code that should not be modified and only the devs can decide if it's a "cheat" or not. If it's a variable that they allow to be client-side AND can be modified by the player in-game it's not a cheat. Exploit? perhaps...but not a "cheat".

Heinz said:it's probably possible, like when people used to disable the weather effects in MOH/Spearhead. sadly, people will always sneak whatever pathetic, sad little advantages they can get away with.
as for you (and me), just enjoy the game with all the effects and have a good time.
what do u mean its "probably" possible? just set ur game to d3d and ur good to go.
i did it for a while, my game lagged a lot less. but i cudnt stand being cheap, and not being slwoed down by nades. its complete bull***** im telling u.
no mater what happaned to me i could run around full speed and look around and stuff.
it sucks that there is a way to get around the motion blurr, and i think the devs need to implement it into direct 3d. RIGHT NOW.

It definitly does add an advantage. This I know from playing with ot of for the past week do to a graphics glitch i encountered while playing with it on. Luckly now that is fixed and i can play with it on.

I think when you are being surpressed, your accuracy should suffer greatly. this way, no graphics setting could diminish the value of surpression fire.
I mean, if someones firing at you, you'd have to be a pretty calm person to keep your hand steady and shoot back with precision.
