Confused.......how does being able to manually select your team color not possible when you have color blind mode on?

?_?

Color blind mode colors overriding your preferences/options.


But with color blind mode you cant change your color to yellow but without you can? How does that make any sense.

Well, because color blind mode just changes your color to blue - orange?

Actually I see no reason to use color blind mode from now, because we can manually set colors to blue-orange.

I'm actually glad it stayed that way, i mainly used team colors since WoL for the mini map and for the green/red instead of blue/red. On lots of dark map seeing a blue spot of an ennemy dropping was pretty hard, and even the default red wasnt vivid enough (although we havent had red color themed maps in a while).
URGENCY EDIT : holy **** its only for yourself, the opponents color does change on the mini map, looks like im gonna have to stick with red default for ennemies (-_-')

Now as a random player what i really want is being able to have custom color per race i can't predict which one i'm gonna play and i like my teal protoss but i also wanna play black terran

Um, you sure what about you're talking?

We're talking about YOUR OWN color on minimap, which is always green. Enemy color on minimap varies from his color, and all players will have it red by default, because noticing those GIANT RED PIXELS, going towards your base is easiest, than catching for dark blue pixels on dark map. I already said about that in 1st post and seems you even didn't read it.

URGENCY EDIT : holy **** its only for yourself, the opponents color does change on the mini map, looks like im gonna have to stick with red default for ennemies (-_-')

So don't change it? We're all hyped mainly for ability to set YOUR color. You finally may have one of 17 different colors, instead of three (blue / red / green).

Now as a random player what i really want is being able to have custom color per race i can't predict which one i'm gonna play and i like my teal protoss but i also wanna play black terran

No problem here. It remembers your last window in options so you can easily change it on start of your game.

Great everyone wants to tweak their options at the start of each game...

I think you're the one who missunderstood btw, i was clearly talking about the mini map and saying if i want my opponent to be white for example, it will appear white on the mini map instead of red while my color will be green regardless.
What i wanted was for him to be whatever color i want but STILL red on the mini map which isnt the case anymore.

And yes ive read the entire post beforehand, calm yourself.

This is great, I've been quickly tired of always playing blue/red vs red/blue.
Will there be an option which pick random colours for both players like on BW ?

Reverse of Blizzard bug with always being green, but for enemy? Well, I'll vote for that. But if they didn't manage to change our green color since wol, I don't think we will be able to have it on enemy player, at least untill starcraft 3.

Actually what you may have now:

YOU
- any color in game
- always green on minimap

ENEMY
- any color in game
- any color on minimap

So it's just better to set enemy to Default red and keep it forever, there is nothing bad with it. That new color change option is mainly good for YOU, and probably for allies, since I'm tired of seeing them yellow. In Dawn of War 2 my allies were teal always, in DoW1 they were blue (and in some other RTS games also)

Well there are other awesome colors on Zergs. Light Green zergs are like lime zergs, also violet / purple zergs are awesome, also brown / orange / dark grey colors make them look like Feral Zergs, i.e. without team color and with just brown "wild" colors.

Btw I love orange zergs with color intensity at 1, gives some nostalgic feelings about first missions from HOTS, which were actually good.

On protoss all colors look meh, except maybe their original colors: brown / golden, blue / teal. Also Dark Green turns Protoss into Tal'Darims from WOL, I loved that color, it was something between green and teal.

Oh please, I would LOVE this option, when I was a kid I would actually leave games until I got the color I wanted (usually Red or Green), and having the "roll the dice" option with colors would bring quite a few memories back.
