Colour in Planetside 2 Camo discussion.


Although there will be much said about this already on the forum, I must say I'm warming to all this colour customisation.

I cant wait to see what camo's the outfits will wear. Forget the silly ones. The folks that will make this game epic (the outfits/leaders/lone wolves) will all carry their own unique colour and look.

This for me is a massive gain to the game and I can wait for it!

As the outfit become better known, and the game takes shape I can see folks really uniting on empires. Then every now and again we will see the crazy person coloured in orange craziness.

Go for it I say!

Cant wait!

I can't wait to do a black Magrider with purple and teal highlights. You don't have a monopoly and black anymore, TR imperialist pigs!

Seeing a column of 50 tanks in uniform outfit paint jobs is going to be pretty awesome. As long as there is still some identifying colors (which TB's video indicates there still will be, with the red stripe staying on the zebra loverator), I think it will be cool. It's not like you won't be able to use IFF to tell who is your ally or enemy. If you occasionally can't tell if that common pool enemy vehicle is NC or TR, no big deal. Shoot em and let the kill spam sort it out.

The more extreme colorations could end up making individuals (or even entire outfits) the targets of enemy players who dislike the more exotic paint jobs. It could end up being somewhat darwinistic.

I think it would be cool if outfit leaders could unlock special aesthetics based on how many points their outfit has collected.

I can see some of the camo's being popular because they will be so useful too. Obviously some good camo will help break up your frame and could keep you alive longer. Especially if its night and its difficult to see in the first place, I know I'll be investing in some blue urban camo or flat black night camo.

I said it before and will say it again.
Give me a Liquid Mercury skinned Magrider with teal & purple neon underlighting and you can take my money.
At least until the Crystal and Onyx coated variant is released.

So you want something like silver mirror(thinking in terms of sunglasses)? That would be cool.

Different camo patterns and colors are very cool addition to the game. Also I would like a possibility to mix a color scheme with a particular pattern. I believe this would add more diversity...i.e. I actually like the "bacon" camo pattern however I would like to mix it with some desert color scheme if playing on main continent (forgot it's name).

I'm more interested in the possibility of uniform color/shade customization than camo. Like maybe make my shoulders black, grey, or red and a few possible shades of each color.

Maybe that would be too taxing.

I bet ya that the reason they took out hacking, is so we can have a wider range of camouflage and it's based on what the vehicle outline looks like in order to spot enemies.

but surely whatever camo you have could do a quick colour swap purple/red/blue for a stolen vehicle?

I see that as an easy implementation. But im not a game designer lol, so it could be hard to do.
