Personally, I think they should be changed from the overly chunky straps we have now to just a piece of tape. Also, they should be colour coded to the faction and then made visible to all players.

I think the one's on the left look better. kissablefawx

Want to become visible in Lamang with green tape?

this idea will just make everyone easy to spot on the jungle

#

and the dudes with the green armbands will be at a advantage because they will be green

#

also have you seen these armbands with NVG's on? they are bright AF with NVG on, it's like they become a beacon

#

lets leave this just as a gamefied feature to make it easier to differentiate teamates from enemies

Color coding to factions wouldnt be as universally visible as the blue is.

Honestly, the way they have it now.

#

Blue is universally easy to make out

#

And it made it as simple as armband = friendly

#

I know it takes away a bit of realism, but its a case where I personally think it makes sense from a game perspective

I like that Idea. Would be much more realistic 👍🏻

i just killed 2 dudes yesterday and almost got killed myself because my brain was like "mmh, nothing on their arms, so are they friend or foes?"

and they have been talking like "okay, you can resurrect me if you want, i got killed by a player" and i was confused af.

so... just leave the blue tapes, my brain is just getting used to it

Blue is the best/easiest colour to spot in forest/jungle - it doesn't exist in these biomes. Put red Cola bottle and blue still water bottle in the forest to see what I mean.

These bands are so thick for now because there is clipping problem, these might change in the future development.

Different colors would also let us know immediately which faction we are dealing with.

If it's milsim with profesional PMC , it makes no sense for armbands. This is not a paintball game or war in some country we know from real life where regular army (not PMC) use these.

I understand it makes no difference for you what colour you see or use but it may have for colour blind people - the most common problem for them is to distinguish red from green or blue from yellow.

They might not see red in green jungle or may not see the difference between yellow or blue armband.

I hope my message comes as kind, English isn't my first language, sorry.

# shell ledge What does it change if they both can kill same way?

How far their base is determines how quickly to expect them to get back to the AO. Or if their COPs icon changed to that faction color then you’d know this info as well. That’s one example. If you see one guy to the North with Yellow armbands and one guy to the South with red armbands you know they aren’t buddies and to hold fire and wait for them to fight it out. Thoughts?
