You can change your own color to teal in every game.

Is it me or the color scheme resets every restart of the game? I mean, I want the allies with red, neutral yellow, but everytime I restart the game that changes..

yes when you restart it will restart but if you're still in game and queue up for more games the setting is remembered. it doesnt take much, you'll notice it immediately every time you restart. unless you're restarting after every game it shouldnt be that big of an issue.

I'd love to play Orange Terran all the time.

Make it happen Blizzard!

There's no reason why they can't allow you to set "allied colours" so when you use that option instead of Teal it uses your colour.

i doubt they will add it, especially if for 99% of enemies ur always Red and they are always teal as most people i know make that every game to see enemie easier on map.

So to implement it just for you to see it, maybe they will but then u would have to ask that in bnet forum aint here

It would be cool for them to add this option, even though it's not really necessary. It's basically picking our own colors.

I personally wouldn't use it because it's easiest to see enemy as red on the minimap (ugh brown), and I don't mind what color I am too much. Green is my favorite color though ^_^

most old schoolers would say "if it ain't broke don't fix it", but i have to agree it would be cool to set your own allied and enemy colors. it'd look great in 2v2 3v3 4v4 too!

Btw i think shift-tab once changes minimap colors, shift-tab a second time is what changes building colors if im not mistaken. Or did the first one also change your opponents building colors to red as well? Bah i forget, i always do it twice without thinking.

Some people don't like teal.

Adding the option to change colours is not going to make any negative affect on the game if it's client side (as is teal/red now). It's a pure QOL change that would only make things better.

honestly this should've been in the game ages ago and i have no idea why they haven't implemented it yet.
Probably the only RTS I know where colors are present but you can't pick a color.

Not a big deal, but would be nice to have it. I'm surprised this question never came up at blizzard when planning on what features to add to remastered.
I don't believe you.
