Summary: Pressing F7 or F8 in the garage toggles between different visual modes for the game, including wireframe, a weird green mode, a blue mode ... dunno what the rest are. If you leave it on a different mode, it stays like that ingame

Steps to Reproduce:
  • go to garage

  • press F7 or F8 to toggle to another visual mode or whatever its called

  • join a game

  • profit?
Frequency: 100%
Severity: 2
Additional Notes:
Might just be a developer option that was left on by mistake. Will upload a video soon

EDIT: There's a mode where is very basic graphics, and it would be very useful to keep this

System Specs:
not really relevant


EDIT:
Vid is unlisted atm

No doubt this is some kind of graphics diagnostic function that won't make the open beta. Interesting to see! Kinda funny to see the Scout silhouette reparing. Looks like a robot having a sit on a stool in the middle of a fight. :lol:

haha, yep, I wanted to see what extent this is usable in terms of playing the game. As far as I can tell ... none whatsoever. If you use wireframe mode (video uploading), you get massive frame rate drops. Also there is no UI ...

And another vid with wireframe ... massive frame rate drops XD


Main concern is that if people mistakenly press it and have no clue what they're doing ...
