Infested: Rough for the Color Blind

Hey there. I just ran a great set of Infested maps with an excellent tank. He is color blind and therefore can't differentiate between pink and green when it comes to the statue colors. Any chance you can change up the colors to even the playing field for all, please? These were literally the only thing making him die! "Colour (color) blindness (colour vision deficiency, or CVD) affects approximately 1 in 12 men (8%) and 1 in 200 women in the world," according to colourblindawareness.org. That's probably a lot of AL players.

Also, it would be nice if the safety pools would always float over pet pools and player skill effects. Thanks!

+1 I am color blind too and I tend to follow a mage if I have one in the run

Even if you're not colorblind, the pink and yellow color differences are very hard to notice.

Another problem is that they often appear below one another and you would just have to guess where it is.

An idea (no clue if possible or not) would be to shift from color to shape. Different shape pools.

Brilliant positively brilliant!

I agree - I'm not colorblind but on my device the colours appear as:

Statues: Blue, Pink, Pink
Pools: Blue, Pink, Yellow

Suffice to say if the rogue statue is blue I survive... If not I die whilst trying to work out which of the pinks is a yellow or because I've picked the wrong one (even when it looks like one IS more yellowy, I seem to be wrong) :-S

Can't rely on following the rogues because based on death toll there appear to be many many other players suffering the same issue.

Shapes - genius idea kudos :)

Fix it please.

If your not color blind, then you can feel the pain of colorblindess by running this map.

I'm not colorblind but I have a hard time telling the colors as well. For those circles, I try to do what I saw others doing - run as far away as possible. It seems to work most of the time haha.

I don't have the problems with the pools...I guess +1 to change it 4 others

Bump

Next update these should be easier to read. Statue / safe zone colors should match exactly and safe zones have class markers.
