In overall yes, I agree (add pull maybe ?), but if we follow your "darker than chat rule", then I'd also lighten the chat too as otherwise join message may come up a bit too dark.We can also change BattlEye color to #006400 (dark green) and then we have #E739B1 free and we can use it like a _ has joined as spectator. The point is to change BattlEye colour to any free good-looking and get its colour for joining spectator.

Team chat also kind of looks similar to charlie chat.
I like this idea, although for my proposal I'm (for now at least) going to suggest some sort of medium cyan color.In overall yes, I agree (add pull maybe ?), but if we follow your "darker than chat rule", then I'd also lighten the chat too as otherwise join message may come up a bit too dark.We can also change BattlEye color to #006400 (dark green) and then we have #E739B1 free and we can use it like a _ has joined as spectator.

Original:I can't agree with changing Teamchat color. Yellow is the most visible color for human eye. While I play cw I want to see teamchat commands without any troubles. Let's say it that differences between Alpha/Bravo/Charlie/Delta Chat aren't visible in game. I think that bigger revolution is needed like:Anti-cheat/BattleEye

[machina] Haha! I'll blow you by my LAW!(of course yellow looks like it looks on white, but maps aren't full lighted in reality)
[Bonecrusher] And I'll slice you by my knife :P
[Curt] Who cares while my team wins?
[Falcon] No more ;D
(TEAM)[Eskhata] Okay, let's focus and let they die!

- I tried to make the speaking text slightly more distinguishable, but not much different. Made all of them slightly darker. Made blue less green, and green less blue.
- Spectator chat color changed to match the purple/pink look.
- Team chat color changed to avoid looking like the charlie too much. I tried to make it not look like bravo too much. It is difficult to tell if this is appropiate for in-game when trying to view it on the forum (since the blue background :P).
- Anti-cheat color changed due to spectator taking its color.
Thoughts and comments?
I should probably look at the other text colors and see if changing them should be considered. For the shades: chat = very-light, join team = medium
We can probably get one or two more easily distinguishable shades for each of the 6 color groupings: dark, and very-dark. These could be used for all the other text colors. I want to have 'related' text be near the same color if possible. E.g. Connection Problem could be similar to in color _ has been kicked from console. because they both have to do with not being in-game anymore. Maybe. Was just a thought; there might be something more appropriate.

Sure, that would work even better. The colors of the names could in that case be the same as the join game text colors. I don't know if it would be possible to get it done before the next release though, but I might do it if I have time after I've fixed a few bugs.I like the look. I agree the name color should be the same as the join game text color.
As for the colors of other console messages, I think some of the less interesting/important ones (time left, requesting game, etc.) should be more "grayish".I want to make note that if they are all grayed too much, they may look too similar to one another.
