darbar colors
« on: July 10, 2016, 06:28:01 PM »
When nothing is going on in your country and you look on the map to see this:



You might be inclined to switch countries to get in on the action.  Trouble is though, that fight may be completely lopsided and you have no way of knowing until you make the six hour commitment. 


What I wish is for the darbar colors to match the clipboard enemy colors.  That would help me make a more informed decision.

 To every man upon this earth, death cometh soon or late.
 And how can man die better, than facing fearful odds.
 For the ashes of his fathers and the temples of his Gods."

Don't forget the ability to change their color separately.  Example: Nit Country Blue/Dar Orange, Bish Country White/Dar Red.  :aok

  The way the radar and dar bar works now is my team=green, not my team=red.  If you had the colors correspond to team colors, it would help two teams gang up on the third team.  That's a pretty serious downside. 

   Besides, sometimes you get all three teams fighting at the same base.  It's pretty funny watching a red icon shooting at another red icon.

Perhaps even a checkable option for those that really don't mind seeing nme dar lumped into one?

I normally ask on 200 to see which side is lopsided so when I switch over I'm fighting the horde....this would save a step.

I'm blind in one eye and can't see out of the other one.  :D
