Camos arenāt a terrible idea but it needs to be done with great care. Back in planetside 2 we had something like a āleopard camo debacleā where people would run around with some kind of leopard/cheetah-esque camo whichwould make peopleās reaction times against you actually increase because it changed the colour of your armour to a non-faction colour (the same if the skin was bought on any faction), which was often the primary method of quickly identifying targets in that game.
Here itās similar, I and a lot of others have gotten used to spotting camo/uniforms as the doritos arenāt reliably visible. If two factions have similar camo (Iām not an expert on ww2 uniforns but I still get caught out by the white helmets of both soviets and germans at moscow) it could lead to some similar problem.
Back when Lone Fighters wasnāt murdered (well⦠put to sleep would be a better word I guess) there were times when the uniforms had similar colors or they were simply too far away and⦠well letās just say the bullets were not as friendly as they shouldāve been lol
i keep watching videos of people shooting their own teammatesā¦
which in LF itās a massacre
dunno what everyonse is about cosmetics uniforms.
there arenāt many choises ( outside for the krauts in terms of options ).
even if you would buy a skin that somewhat helps you to council your squad, enemy or friendly bots still shoot at you from miles. therefore you are not going to have much advantage. plus, i think it would help to make the battlefield a bit more different.
regardins weapons skins, i would also love them as long they are historical accurate.
but as i said, i donāt think customization itās going to be a priority up until a year maybe.
Its good to see that other people are like minded.
I actually just made a post not that long ago discussing just that.
I think it would be a perfect way of giving DF some sustainable Income. That way they could find a way to fix Silver orders for F2P players. Iāve said it before and Iāll say it again, I will pay to ensure F2P can stay F2P. Just give me the things I want to pay for.
That being said, if they make Premium Weapons purchasable, they need to Limit the amount you can buy to the amount the squad comes with, and only 1 Purchase per account so that way it doesnāt unbalance the game in some crazy way.
I think this would be different, as it would remain your Nations (or allied Factions) Camo patterns. Which are very distinct with some small exceptions in Tunisia and Berlin. I do not see this being a problem TBH. As well, you either have a Triangle above your head or not. SO just shoot anything without that (though in Tunisia, itās murder at time because everyone uses Sand colour).
Oh absolutely, I am sure there are more Ausf. (enter letter here) they can make up and use.
Colorblind should be mandatory in any FPS or game period where color matters for IFF.
I advocated (Along with many others) on another game, and good on the Devās they actually brought in a few experts to help them because (and many people donāt know this) that there are variations of colorblindness.
Yeah i remember playing lone fighters and constantly being kicked for friendly fire because i ether shoot at what i think is the enemy or get killed trying to determine.
