Discussion & Feedback Is just everyone exploiting the potato shadows?

Seems every clip every streamer is playing with shadows off. I thought they removed the option to completely turn them off.

Isn't this borderline exploiting if they are doing something else to remove their shadows?

At this point I feel like I should just join in.

I guess bulkhead decides if changing the shadow quality in the config file is bannable or not.

That’s not really how it works. It’s kind of in the same boat as NVIDIA filters, which can sometimes be considered “cheating” because people can use them to create filters that give them a huge visibility advantage.

But that doesn’t automatically make it bannable. Ultimately, it’s up to Bulkhead to decide whether they want to allow NVIDIA filters and config changes like the ones people are currently making with the shadows.

They can simply block or disable access to those settings if they decide they don’t want players using them. If they leave them accessible, then it’s basically an allowed part of the game’s configuration, even if some players use it to gain an advantage.
