Actually, it it was off in the distance, or nestled into a rocky outcropping, in this picture:



...then it would indeed be harder to see. Especially in low-light conditions in a fast moving reaver. But if it's the default purple, it would stick out like a sore thumb.

Any camo effect breaks down when you get up close to an object because you mind can interprete the striaght lines and edges.

Again, I don't see how I'm being unreasonable here. While the OPs concerns about "stigmatizing payers" seems rediculous to me, the idea that people will interprete effective camo as an unfair paid advantage seems like an absolutely realistic concern.

And the fact that so many seem to be adament that this small compromise be withheld from free users makes me a little dubious about some of you and whether you really are against p2w models.
