The fact of the matter is that being able to distinguish between different types of colors such as red and green can mean the difference between winning and losing. In first person combat situations, the simply is no room for mistakes in the decision making process, and being able to make quick judgment calls based on the green and red colors, which are the two colors used to indicate allies and enemies, is imperative. It seems that around 10% of all gamers experience some level of colorblindness, and unfortunately in past releases this would have greatly affected their gaming experience.

Color blind gamers have had to deal with this issue simply by coming up with workarounds for particular scenarios where the decision making process was hindered by this vision deficiency. In the next release, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, gamers can expect not to have to go through this type of trouble because developers are taking this type of handicap into account. How? One thing that is being done to cater to the needs of color blind gamers is having different color schemes available. Gamers who normally have trouble seeing shades of red and green will be able to choose different colors which they are able to see more easily.

It appears that for the time being the developers of Modern Warfare 3 are focusing more on the multiplayer gaming mode and may or may not be incorporating the color scheme options into the single player mode just yet.
