    Will there be a color picker for our player color?
    As in a nice rainbow palette with a slider for brightness/saturation?

    You can have PA units in any color, as long as it's gray. :lol:

    They said something about 2 colors. Not sure if you can pick 2 colors your own or if you pick from a set of 2 colors.

    In the livestream where they showed off the Delta commander for the first time, there were different colored Deltas. You might get to pick colors, but that would be more of a retail feature than an alpha feature. It's just cosmetic.

    Colours need to be easily distinguishable, colour picker could just cause issues.

    I believe that the colors differentiations are team colors.

    The problem comes if the vanilla colors are awful.
    A color picker would help players choose MORE distinguished colors.
    Especially considering that some players like to play with a more muted color palette, while others want a more vibrant easy-to-distinguish palette.

    A color picker allows people to choose what they want their army to look like.
    A pastel bright red, or a military dark green.

    the matte palette should, theoretically, make it very easy to use a colour wheel or otherwise to select your unit colours.

    i also believe there were 2 different ones!
