Anyone else having trouble distinguishing the flags?

[Wetwings]

I find it really hard to see the difference between the Warden and the Colonial flags on foxholes etc. Especially at night when you cant see the colour difference. The logo's look really similar to each other and I have to really focus on deciding what is a friendly building and what's not.

Does anyone else have trouble with this?

Do you think this should be fixed, like with different shaped flags or something else?

[Sir Clavius]

Yeah, i have same problems..

You, me, and just about everyone else.
I hope it is a feature, not a bug.
That the developers intend for us to have to squint to tell the sides apart.

I would personally like to get the first person view that the developers spent so many resources to develop, then censored us from seeing. They put a LOT of detail in the models that are either really hard or even impossible to distinguish at the distance we see them.

If the overhead view must persist, I would like to see aircraft warning markers on the roofs of buildings and vehicles, letting us in our drone view see who owns what clearly.

Yeah, it's sometimes hard to see which flag it belongs to. I would like to see improved visiblity with flags.

They have different colours already, dark green for Colonials and dak blue for Wardens. The problem is they are very close in colour and at night you can't see the difference.

Unless you are red/green colorblind.

Me, I'd suggest making the banner shapes different, triangular for one faction, rectangular for the other.

Or change the emblems, circle for one, square for the other.

Red/Green is not a good choice for about six percent of males, who are color blind to those hues.
That works out to about seven million American guys. Quite a sizeable chunk of the gaming demographic.

I too have to agree that sometimes it can be hard to distinquish which flag the object belongs to especially at night. Brighter colors might help with this, or different shaped flags for different factions as suggested by someone else. Red and Green would be like Christmas colors though lol.

But then you just look at the shape, Triangl or Rectangular. If that fails, hopefully people can make out if its a Circle or Square. Like I said, Plz do all three. No need to exclude anyone.

+1 with flag problems

GOD YES!

FLAGS NEED A MAJOR OVERHAUL

[Dio]

in fact, everyone tweet at @foxholegame about this please
let's get the Heraldry less ambiguous

[Venryx]

Yes please! I've learned to be better at distinguishing them now, but it was a real pain earlier on. And even now, I have to focus on the flag to see whose it is. (especially at night)

A triangle vs rectangle shape for the flags would be easiest, but even just having the images show up larger on the flag would help a lot.
