Why not blue?

[Mirza Wolfie]

Has anyone noticed that sven co-op is all blue related, blue hud, blue lambda symbol, blue text etc, but why are the arms orange? Why aren't they blue to just fit with the...co-opness I guess?

It's bothered me just a little bit but I'm curious if anyone else has noticed and if it's bothered them.

You can always download a blue-hands mod :D

Probably because it all is still based on Half-Life which has an orange H.E.V suit. But to be honest I don't think that it was really a concern for anyone. The blue theme was just there to distinguish it from the original game and other mods so you know you are playing Sven Coop.

I mean the They Hunger mod originally had a red HUD because...blood? Who knows xD

Also if somebody doesn't like blue arms where would that leave him? Same situation, different color ^^

It would be better if the arms would fit to the color you set in the multiplayer options. These arms already exist somewhere so it is possible.

Understandable, I just think blue would fit better, yes the game is set in half life but you aren't gordon freeman, you're a...random...unit I guess? if the team does decide to change the arms up in some way, I'd love if they added color support, just so players can use their model colors to pick a color and stick with it..kinda upsetting that it's not like that right now.

It'd be cool if we could swap HUDs, I'd love to use the opposing force one. Green is a gud color
