Having different colored players isn't very useful if everyone's blue on their own screen.

Sometimes while playing on discord I forget names and it would really just be nice to be able to say "yellow" and the person who is on my screen as yellow knows I'm talking about them because they're yellow on their own screen.

Not a big deal but a QoL change.

If...if...We didn't love freedom enough...We purely and simply deserved everything that happened afterward.”

For example, I play 4v4s. When things get hectic, it gets hard for me to concentrate. If someone's sniper is getting flanked and I want to remind them, but I forgot what color is who, all I can do is ping the unit and say "hey watch your sniper!"

If I could see at a glance that his unit is green, even if I forgot his name I can say "green watch your sniper!" and that's infinitely more helpful.

I agree. It would be nice to have per default always the same color for all players view. 4 colors associate to Allies and 4 colors associate to Axe (except for the case of mirror games with 8 Allied or 8 Axe).

And also an option to disable it for accessibility reason.

They broke post-games stats' colors years ago. I asked once to return how it was previously: e. g. cyan player ig showed as cyan at match stats screen. Ignored. The thing you ask never gets in the game whatsoever despite useful it or not.

Im not use to seeing my units that not in Blue. However I understand that.
As I play with friends in 4v4 and friend said "whats this yellow guy doing?"

To my PoV, yellow was my friend.

To be fair I think he maybe means that he wants the option to give teammates a unique color but give enemies a uniform red.

If that isn't what he's saying then lmao

SHOUT IT OUT!

Willy Pete: @Rosbone Ahh I missed that memo. I still think its a bad decision though. Adds frustration for players and isnt gonna make them that much money
Last Thursday, 15:46 PM

Rosbone: It is also good they left it free until after the free to play weekend. Points for that.
Last Thursday, 09:34 AM

Rosbone: But I agree, the cost to get a full decent Coh game pushing $115 US is not the best idea. Especially when it needs so much more work for casuals.
Last Thursday, 09:32 AM

Rosbone: To be fair, it was a thank you to early fans right? They said it was not free for long and it would become a pay DLC at some point.
Last Thursday, 09:30 AM

Willy Pete: Re-releasing free DLC so they can charge new players money for it. Brilliant marketing strategy

Soheil: Coh2 still broken server ?
Last Tuesday, 18:27 PM

Rosbone: Congrats to Relic. Looks like Coh3 has finally usurped Coh2 s the popular Coh. You smell terrific.

Nickbn: and again someone else replies. I mean come on guys. Give @adamírcz a chance
22 Mar 2025, 14:00 PM

Willy Pete: @Nickbn you didn't ask a question, and this is a chat box...
20 Mar 2025, 13:11 PM

Nickbn: @Rosbone it's incredibly rude to speak on someone elses behalf, especially when a question is directly adressed to them. I understand your passion for the subject at hand but I want to hear from him.
20 Mar 2025, 10:16 AM

Rosbone: @Nickbn No, I am just saying people should not be using any Relic owned forum since they have proven they ban anyone who says true things about Coh3.
18 Mar 2025, 19:01 PM

Nickbn: @Rosbone do you speak on his behalf? I didn't know. In that case keep us updated please.

Rosbone: #RelicModdedEchoChamber
16 Mar 2025, 17:54 PM

Rosbone: @Nickbn True except, the only people on the Relic Discord/Reddit/Steam are brain washed monkey zealots. They wont even understand what @adamírcz is talking about. Anyone else is banned.
16 Mar 2025, 17:54 PM

Nickbn: @adamírcz might be a better idea to voice this to relic directly than to voice it here, in a shoutbox of a nearly deade fansite #justsaying...
16 Mar 2025, 16:36 PM

webdesign-muenchen-w: @Rosbone it is sick
14 Mar 2025, 22:09 PM

aerafield: @adamírcz aren't the first two disconnects free every day?
14 Mar 2025, 19:26 PM

Rosbone: It is so unlike Relic to punish its fans and community.
14 Mar 2025, 12:07 PM

adamírcz: So, I just got a leaver penalty without even getting onto the loading screen because of the game disconnecting, bravo Relic

Rosbone: It is an indicator of the very short sighted capitalist view that plagues any company where leadership does not understand the product.
