thats the joke. At first we were like "the colors are too bright, they need to be darker and more gritty" and now its the opposite can't please everyone. I think the colors are fine. I have more trouble distinguishing units when all healthbars are on. Then I really can't tell who is who. | ||

We need to have the non playing spectators hooked on their first viewing, and if they can differentiate the two sides clearly, it would be much more interesting for them to actually quickly grasp that one side is on the verge of winning. Agreed. A lot of spectators might not even know Starcraft in depth. Look at all the Korean girls that follow pro league. When they go to a live match, do you really think all those girls really recognize all the different units? Of course not. What those girls do recognize are the colors and if they see one side coming out of a battle with the right colors, it gives them a reason to cheer. | ||

Look at the RED zerg. its fricken red! /// Please blizzard make at least the colors like they were. The "color" really needs to be changed. especially on the zerg side of things. ahem. the creep color. Umm, you need to have an SC1 comparison with beige and yellow. Sorry, this is apples to oranges. Like I said, daytime lighting is fine, it's only the nighttime lighting that makes it difficult. | ||

The blades don't glow team colors if you turn down graphics settings. Easy to verify. Try it out I see. Blizzard should fix this. | ||

Blizzard definitely needs to fix this if SC2 wants to be a success as a spectator esport. | ||

Maybe they could add an option for brightskins and make you chose a colour for your enemy. Just being able to switch enemy colour to red kinda sucks for people like me who have red/green colour weakness, you notice stuff so late on minimap TT... | ||

Another thing bothering me is the size of the lifebars. I like to play with lifebars always on, but sometimes you just can't see nothing besides a bazilion lifebars vs lifebars fight, and this is annoying. | ||

Daytime lighting is not fine for some zerg vs zerg battles on creep. It is often difficult to separate zerg units and their owners sometimes for creep battles, depending on the starting color of each zerg army. | ||
