[UI] Laser Colours

Hi, i am not 100% sure if i am posting in the right place, move topic if not(sorry).

Just wondering why does BP not change the laser settings back as they where when only 3 laser kinds existed?

Example, if you have you're ship full lf3 the laser colors will be blue, instead of red that we have now, upgrade the game as if you have lf4+ or all ship is lf4 or prometheus deal blue color laser dmg, or green on x3.

This might have been suggested before, but i would really like to see this happening on DO again.


Kind Regards Attiboy14

 

Full LF3s are still blue. The colour settings have not changed at all.
There really is no need to add more colours; it'll just be one huge headache to deal with.

 

i think you are mistaking, visual is also an important part of the game, not just "gameplay" alot of users would enjoy new collours deffinitly

 

They already have blue,red, white and green and orange depending on what ammo you are using.

 

I think i get what he's trying to say, the laser color "red" on ships with either fully equipped with lf-4 or prometheus laser does look bland, if they were to change the color of the laser or atleast the laser model (like when using RSB your lasers would change to a more slimer and rigged laser with the hue of orange) i know every 5 seconds that if you have all scatter or prometheus laser equipped on your ship you will have a different kind of laser shot from your ship with the color being purple, in this case why not turn the laser color of a ship with specific laser type fully equipped into something of a different color base on their lore (if D.O has a lore, i doubt there is atleast on some missions and using your imagination) such as LF-4 being a secretly developed prototype or an upgrade to the LF-3 should have a pointed laser shape with the hue color of teal rather than blue.

The game does need an upgrade on the laser color for the new ones like the spectral lancer 3 or the scatter laser 3 considering some players find the aesthetic look of a thick red laser bland nowadays as it lacks uniqueness unlike the LF-3 which is the only laser type that changes your laser color into blue (having fat lasers with the color blue looks cooler than with a red which is very common, but that's debatable)

 

Do keep in mind, that we have A LOT of existing laser colours already. Adding more will contribute to confusion among players, especially newcomers. If you navigate to the Official Renders Thread in the Media Library, you will see merely a portion of all available laser colours and animations available.

 

full lf3
x1 blue
x2 blue
x3 green

full lf4 or any other laser
x1 red
x2 red
x3 red

full prometheus
x1 red
x2 red
x3 red

1 hit purple every 5 sec

all lasers
x4/rb white
cbo orange
x6 orange
CC ammo green
AB-L purple

i think there are enough colors

 

i want a rainbow colored laser to be honest

 

Type "iwantrainbows" while on the game's space map. You're welcome!

 

Maybe a color changing extra similar to ghostifier?


Dunno about you but I'd like some serious deep purple lasers to be fired out.


And we don't have enough colors. I've yet to see black lasers despite us having blacklight. Could be black with a white edge. Or even yellow

 

are you sure this works?

Edit: it definitely works, thanks
