You make that sound like a bad thing.

It was great for the first five minutes or so. After that, it was pretty frustrating not being able to see either your character or what you were targeting.
Theoretically, there are about 14 players in that screenshot, including me.

Fixed that for you. ^_^
Seriously, I did two LGTF's last week, and while there were times that I couldn't see a thing I still love this bug. ^_^

It's fixed on Test. Waiting for it to come to Live.

I do believe it's coming this morning.
(One of my LGTFs was run by Mr. Zombie himself. Good run!)

In fairness, I'd just come off a Citadel TF, where the bug also affects Valkyrie/Hoverbot models, so I had a bit of eyestrain already.
It does look pretty darn awesome if you're not actually trying to play through it.
Hopefully this morning's insta-patch (HAMIBUBBLEBANHAMMER?!) will include a fix for all the extra fireworks.

Thank you, devs and QA types! (Also, thanks for all the other good changes!)
Well crud.

They all laughed at me when I said I wanted to be a comedian.
But I showed them, and nobody's laughing at me now!

Now I have to rewrite "Explosions! By Michael Bay!" 
...I forgot what experience means.
yeah... fun while it lasted.
*Boomboomboomboomboom*
... Glad I got to fool around with it on my Grav controller for a little while
Anyway at all we can get a patch in this week to fix the looping animation bug for drones before the Rikti Invasion this weekend?
This was a relatively small invasion group... about 2 groups of players. It was a never-ending fountain of exploding drone bits. You couldn't see the players or rikti for the explosions.
