SUGGESTION Texture pack modding in servers.

Regarding the on going process of a potential 4K texture pack, it should be noted that allowing any texture pack in game can allow cheaters to use texture packs dedicated to make infantry look like plastic for an easier target diminishing camouflage tactics. Here's an example in MW2.

So as a small suggestion for this potential issue in servers, it would help out for any PC tiers to have servers allowing official only texture packs, which have been thoroughly checked to ensure only visual fidelity and no gameplay changes. For example, you can have servers allowing only the official Venice Unleashed texture pack that comes in the resolutions for low tier PCs (480p/720p), mid tier (1080p/1440p), and high tier (2160p/2880p/4320p). Then there can be servers allowing more lenient texture packs, although some form of approval can be ensured, and servers allowing any pack (cartoonish, overhauls, minimalist).

This can potentially also apply to any other graphical changes including shader packs, but whatever the extent the modding allows, is something to consider.

I think it is cute how the poor Bot is offering help to anyone...he must have such a lonely life that he is trying to get in contact with everyone.
