It's pretty much worthless in this game though since there are no scoped weapons. It's just to give it a filmed, shot through camera effect or a realistic sniper scope effect.

Ok, so that doesn't explain the blood sometimes looking like the melted down T1000 then.heh Chromatic aberration is the effect you get when looking through a lens and light bounces the colors incorrectly, you'll see red, yellow, blue and such around objects in the shape of the object but offset. If you played The Division most people disabled this. It's a post-process effect it will add extra load to both your CPU and GPU. It's hard to differentiate between on/off and comes down to your particular preferences. This is a solution for Logitech users because Logitech USB headphones don't seem to have any speaker configuration option other than 7.1 they can't change their device to 5.Originally posted by SMiThaYe:Chromatic Aberration adds HDR, bloom and depending on the title colour tints which all adds up to the older film look. Turns out that Virtual Audio Cable basically creates a stereo sound device that you can route to the Logitech headphones Dead Island sees that stereo sound device and then outputs in stereo. People have mentioned using Virtual Audio Cable (not a free program) as a solution and I finally looked into that. For me, if I restart the game enough, the audio might work correctly one time out of twenty so you might change Audio.scr and then get lucky and not have the problem after starting the game but then have the issue show up the next time you start the game.

I've seen others mention that modifying the Audio.scr file doesn't seem to work 100% for them either. I've tried the fixes involved with modifying the Audio.scr file and that doesn't seem to be a solid solution. I've been following discussion on the Steam community and I'm about 100% confident that the only resolution for the 7.1 distorted audio problem is to set the audio device to 5.1 or lower.
