Colors & more
« on: May 13, 2010, 07:16:50 pm »
I edited a screenshot and i hope you can follow me.

The Colors at the Chat Console are too bright so that its really hard to see the difference between teams same goes for the death console.
the ctf-Points box could be resized because 50% of its capacity isnt needed.

As we will soon have the Account System and there will obvioulsy be sth. like ranks / or stars idk. it would be nice if there would be instead of the (2) behind the nick at the death console the rank and also under the "you killed Nick" message.

I will probably quit Soldat when something like this is going to be implemented. The colors are not necessary and if you cannot differentiate which text was written by a member of which team you should go to the doctor or get a new display.

Why should you want to see the stars in the deathconsole? Many players don't even use it anymore and it's unnecessary. Even in the F1 tab it would make things chaotic and not-nice. Imagine one of those 11yo's who has a name like "(>^O^)> (>^.^)> (>v_v)>" or something and afterwards 20.000 stars and sparkles and explosion animations in the back to show how awesome this person-thing is ... useless and distracting. It'll only show how long they spawnkilled on a zombieserver anyways.

For the current state of your suggestion I F11 this, elaborate and we may see

Go ahead, no on gives a sh*t.

I don't like the star Idea but the name color thingy made me thing.

F11,5  And don't round this up to 12 because I'm not sure if I should support this or no.

I'd like what duz has.
The stars seem rather unnecessary though.

just an place holder for that what will be made, dunno if that gonna be levels,stars,whatever. and i made the screenshot within 2 mins so its not about the currently colors in MY screen and the design , it is about the idea.
i m having no problems with my eyes and i got a huge 22" Samsung screen so that s not the problem.

Personally I hate all those levels, ranks, etc. In case of Soldat it doesn't show how good a player is, just how long he's been playing the game. And since the "how-long" counter only starts when 1.5.1 is officially released, it becomes kinda pointless. So in case of Soldat it'll be just a reason for noobs to brag about

noob: omg u noob you have lowest rank!1!!1
you: but I still own, who cares about rank?
noob: I THING YOUR CHEATING! KICK CHEATOR!
* [votekick] everyone F12s because you have low rank and you own*

-----------

As for team colors - I don't have much of a problem distinguishing different teams, but I agree that saturation should be buffed a bit. But only a tiny bit. And only saturation.
