As I understand it... the secondary color comes out more when you have more CEPs... This is normal (im guessing) --->

Correct me if Im wrong, but his secondary colors seem to override his primary. And that would mean that he/she rocks ;p

Well, not if you were NC. Too much yellow, would stick out like a sore thumb. Might as well place a neon sign over your head and paint a bullseye on your chest;)

as far as i know, thats correct
personally i think the yellow is quite cool, it means a commander will have to be leet to avoid being picked off all the time, it is abit "neon sign"-like, but meh at night it wont make alot of difference.

All three Factions make you a big, glowing target at high rank. Terrans end up bright red, Vanu end up intensely homo teal (;)), and NC are, as you pointed out, bright yellow. So when the enemy is fighting high ranked players, they'll know it at a glance.

I think this system is awesome and it really challenges the higher ranked players, especially when it is darker fighting conditions. Camo is very useful but experienced players will have to do without!

I am officially beginning my campaign to call the Vanu secondary color turquoise. Turquiose is a blue-green color and that is exactly what the Vanu secondary color is.
If you remeber, Smokejumper called it tealish. Not teal.
"Confirmation of the above: Vanu colors are purple and a tealish-green. As Vanu gain in rank, their armor gets more of that tealish color. It actually looks pretty amazing. Very sea-shellish colors."
I think you Vanu haters are pretty feminine yourselves for recognising that there is a color teal. No self respecting male would recognise such a color. The next thing you are going to tell me is the name of the shade of yellow on the NC uniforms. :P~
Once again to reiterate: turquiose or blue-green, not teal. My campaign has begun!!!

I don't really know what teal is except for faint images of the color teal from Starcraft and that's about it...

Nope, its BEP's not CEP's that change your color. CEP's make your armor look more spiffy with more pologon addons.

my god another "war of the colours", its like a bad TV re-run isnt it?.... well you boys do play nice, y'hear,
lol always wanted to do the that... sorta like you yankz trying to impersonate aussie accents and saying "g'day", :ROFL: jeeze thats funny
your right, it looks turquoise to me. But i still call it teal cuz turquoise has to many sylables for me. lol
So i wonder what a VS stealth suit would look like at high ranks? Where would the teal go? Just over the helmet and the raised armor, or would it cover the whole suit?

Teal is a cool color, so the Vanu can not be teal.
This is Teal

He was inferring that becoming bright yellow (gold as a dev said somewhere) was a disability and he was hoping that wasn't the case.
I think...

Val tends to make very little sense most of the time so just disregard what he says.

Well, if ya want to be camo'ed up..then shouldnt ya invest in some of those nifty stealth certs? Thats how I look at it anyway.. Its not like your being visible is gonna put you at any more of a disadvantage than your enemies..they will be all colorful too.

Well 1-I'd say it is teal or very close to teal. Look at that shirt above and the color of writing in my sig, both teal and both look like the VS armor.
More importantly item #2 it doesn't matter what it's called non-VS will always keep using their 10year old "homo" or "gay" color insult. :rolleyes:
