Make team colors more visible

(1/4) > >>

Maximum:
So far the only way to tell if a ship is friendly or not is to mark them, especially since balloon paint was added.

As it stands the color to differentiate ships is so washed out and tiny compared to the rest of the ship, Im hitting the wrong person or not shooting when the enemy is right there. There's no colorblind mode or anything that I can find that would help aside from altering the textures themselves, but that brings up other problems.

Its not fun being yelled at by strangers to shoot a guy I thought was a friendly for the past minute, and being chastised because I literally can't tell the difference between red and blue teams in this game.

Bind MAP to Q. And use map often to be tacticaly aware of your ships surrounding no matter what class you are. That way you will know and be more aware of where your ally is. Team colours never were visible, it is suppoused to be vague to a degree. But we may as well.

Ah, helpful point: the compass at the top of the screen has different symbols for friend and foe.

I still have map on m.. and use it all the time.. as engi - so I agree with this... It is a pretty effective way to know if someone is or isn't an enemy very quickly.. - Just being aware of where your ally is will help a lot to..


That said I am for "more" team colors.. (like in the lobby pick from a list).. As.. why not?... If picking the same color is an issue.. (and it shouldn't need to be.. haha..) Just make each team have its own list to chose from...

I think the reason they don't is partly do to how the UI works .. like CP maps and the bars would all need updated to match it.. and system put in to check it.. all for a very minor thing..

Arturo Sanchez:
better idea...

teammates are auto spotted but with a different indicator.

seeing as spotting is just lines that make a corner.

have 4 lines of the sides.

voila.
