sorry i don't know where to post this. i'm a blind player using a screen reader both on the computer and also on the phone. i'm having some real trouble. on the computer i can't seem to start courses but i can on the phone. i also can't seem to buy ammo for my guns on either pc or phone. on the pc i've tried using IE, edge and crome. no luck on anything. could something be done to make this game more accessible?

many thanks :).

Bump. I know this may be an effort without much financial reward for Ched, but this is well worth doing.

I'm with a faction of players, and we'd like to invite you to join our faction. We're the Hounds of Justice. We're supportive, but not overly demanding. Also, we have a few programmers who would probably help you interface with the game in some ways.

hi all.

thanks for the offers. the annoying thing is that a few years ago i used to play this game and i could play it so i don't know quite what has changed but evidently something as. like i say if a developer could look into this then that would indeed be great.

So ture this game is easy for me but yeah it take while to get it... They need more devlopment like a story line or a comic book video storyline

You are completely off topic. This thread is about site accessibility.


Edit: for the record, in case anyone was concerned, four (254727) is oddly opposed to blind players

Every said these days has such things.
Torn is badly programmed then. There was a video of how to make sites for blinds as well and if you dont do it immediately then you are a bad programmer (according to Reddit).
I can look for that subreddit again. There were some simple HTML codes that made it accessible for blind players.
Either Torn has some outdated code or is badly programmed by accident or on purpose.

i can't seem to start courses but i can on the phone.
My guess is then that Torn has outdated code.

"then don't say nothing" = something

Also it's a good suggestion to open a bug report about this. The bug reports get a substantial amount of attention from the staff and Ched... way more than suggestions. And I believe this to be a fairly serious issue.. which warrants way more attention than it's getting now.
