If I'm being honest I don't see too much of a difference, I just hope they keep purple and teal as the empire's main colors.

Everyone is telling that the Vanu is no longer purple!
They are now green and black!

Of course the empire color is still purple, but there is no longer purple on the Vanu units, all green and black!

When you use camo, only the green is left.

Now the game is officially RGB, most colorblind people are happy with that, I still cannot see the vanu in the dark. And they only get out in the dark!

Green? What green? Your drivers must be messed up if you see green on VS infantry without camo.

Well, maybe there are only people that use one of the green camos in that server. I saw one like that when I played. And one had almost 1:1 nc camo.

Honestly, I think green should have been the original Vanu color anyways. RGB makes sense. Green is more popular, its more distinct from blue than the current purple, and I think it would provide a most generally appealing asthetic. The secondary color can remain purple and the logo and remain the same.

Re: Vanu aesthetics buff incoming (colour and camo)


didn´t t-ray state that we would get the original infantry models in the shop, a long time ago? is this still in the pipeline, or has it been canceled?

if the devs decide to throw the old models into the shop, i really hope, they will ONLY give them the original color shemes! but in all the possible variations that represented the ps1 battlerank colors. hey, they could even sell every different battlerank colorsheme seperately to make more money. i am sure, a lot of outfits would be proud to wear the original heroic color patterns! i totally loved to play as an almost golden scattermax or rexo cr5. camo is for sissies!

If the models are updated to current standards I'd definitely chuck money their way And I'm saying that as someone who has never played PS1. I can only go by the screenshots online and the Vanu look way better in the original game than they do in PS2.

Yea i fully agree, PS1 Vanu were the true Vanu.. T-ray has screwed up the models and made the ps2 VS looks like a bunch of spandex monkeys.. I dont believe at all the he supports Vanu, probably NC or TR and has sabotaged us

This whole VS update was a bunch of bollox to be honest.. They said they will change up the models and then they didnt change anything, no scale armour like original VS.. Only a small colour co-ordination which still makes VS characters look like crap :/

@Tramell Isac, YOU HAVE NOT FAILED VANU, YOU FAILED YOURSELF !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: Vanu aesthetics buff incoming (colour and camo)


I prefer the PS1 vanu (and NC) player models too. I think it has to do with the fact the player models suffer greatly when they stripped the intended look all infantry units (composite armor without the the black armor plating, see old screenshots) in order to sell them in the cashshop just to have another thing to sell by the release date. I'm still surprised that they have not added unique body armor to their shop by now.

Also, the lack of orange visors is depressing.

Re: Vanu aesthetics buff incoming (colour and camo)


To avoid being TK'd, some time ago I had removed all my camo except on vehicles and Infiltrator.

The Infiltrator had a nice tan/green/gray suit that blended well in every setting.
The update made my camo more noticeable than the default wall-gray suit. They took out the gray from the camo and replaced it's faded, hard to notice pastels with with super saturated cartoon colors that jump off the screen at you.

So now I just don't use infantry camo, since the default uniform is superior to anything else available.

I really like Esamir because it is just like Hoth, everyone in white!

But this is a problem, I was in andavi (forgot the name, the west bio lab), a light assault landed in the middle of 3 maxes, 4 engineers, placed c4 and flew away without any retaliation besides mine, got a 6 kills with 2 c4, 3 maxes!
After that all weapon became hot, it was a hell of a tk environment!
After the third tk, I changed my camouflage to alpha squad, no longer got tk.
Now I am wondering, inside a zerg I think it is better to stay with your team color than with camouflage, the enemy got plenty of targets anyway, but I do think they will fire in the most colorful one first, so I will keep using camouflage.
