Color complaint

November 1, 2012 9:07:49 PM from Elemental ForumsElemental Forums

Is it just me or is it difficult to tell the difference between the blue of Resoln and Pariden on the map? I know you can click on a unit and if shows which faction it is aligned with. The towns are diffcult to distinquish unless you are directly next to them to click on. Is there a way to change one of these colors to something different?

Lighter Blue is Pariden the good guys/gals.  Darker Blue is Resoln the bad guys.  But if there's only one it is harder to discern by color alone. 

 

I wish there was a slightly larger palette of pre-determined colors than be at the mercy of sliders.  Anyhow, agree with you on the blues.

It's not just you.  There have been several reports about this.  I had a game bordering both, and just could not tell which border was which nation.

Hopefully the devs will notice the reports, and either change one color completely, or just make them more clearly different.

I also think Tarth and the wild lands look the same

And the reward for most racist sounding title goes too...

 

Nope. It's still "A Few Niggling Issues."

Resolin screamed 'purple'....but Magnar screwed that up....so yes, now I would say that if Resolin had a slightly darker blue, it would be more distinguishable compared to Pariden.

As for Tarth, I care very little as I'll never play them....but if others are having problems with them and wildlands, it wouldn't hurt to makes them a slightly lighter green, would it?
