I honestly think that the respawn effect should be changed. It did bother me in WF1 and I don't really like it in WF2 either. The flickering is distracting imo and turning it off, just feels weird. Making the car transparent after resetting or applying an other effect which is not as distracting, would make the gameplay cleaner 🙂

Yeah I feel almost epileptic whenever resetting. In cockpit view it's very annoying.

It would be probably fine with the current flickering if transparency was just set to 70% or something

definitely don't like any of the flickering, transparency could be a decent option while it's in "ghost" mode

#

off should also be an option like in wf1, cockpit view with transparency would be a bit weird, and horrible with flickering

I agree with Spendy and I don't think we even need a respawn effect in cockpit view

I think there should still be something, to tell you when ur car becomes solid

transparent/ghost car effect would be the best alternative. absolutely

I think something like this would be dope

#

the transparent "Ghost" car would fade into the normal variant

#

actually a pretty cool transition from a ghost material

a basic concept (white = transparent ghost mode ingame)

That wouldn't tell you the status well enough in cockpit view

#

Honestly the only issue I have right now is that the contrast between the fully visible car and no car is way too radical. Just a half transparent car instead of the fully visible one would fix this.

have the wheel have its own sweep effect.

#

honestly i think it needs to be faster than this, not just active for the entire ghost duration, just let the effect play quickly as a simple transition out of ghost mode

#

say, 0.3 seconds

that is what I thought should happen

#

reset --> transparent ghost mode --> transition --> normal car

#

it can be done from any direction with any speed

#

oh! then i rescind my statement bc we had the same idea haha

hollow maple Apr 1, 2025, 11:27 AM

#

wheels, windows and other stuff should be affected as well ofc

#

I was just lazy do apply the material for those as well lol

#

fair, if it closes into the center that would be cool
