It is a difficult position to get the game out and have to make a performance degrading patch, but some things cannot be helped.
BUT I hope once CoD is released 1C can do a more detailed analysis and change the effects instead of applying crude patch.

WWII flight sims are about things exploding at 400 mph. At certain geometries you can have things whip past so fast that they're only in view for one frame. This is a known problem with flight sims, but because the flightsim market is so small, and the epileptic population is so small, they rarely interact.

A single flash does not cause PSE (otherwise flash photo would be banned)
Small flashing lights do not cause PSE (otherwise you would never see a blinking clock)

The only item that has by far the greatest chance for PSE, and that is the propeller.

So, yes, what was this test that seemed to cause so many to have PSE??

Everyone in here should go have an EEG. I bet there's quite a few in here where the tech. would say "All we're getting is a flat line."
