So in most strategy type games that I have played similar to Halo Wars, there has been the option to choose the color of your team. The original Halo Wars had a variety of colors, only problem was you couldn’t choose what color you were if you were playing match with friends or just a private match in general.
I was a big fan of the private matches, playing solo or with friends so not really having the option to choose your color really bugged me. It just gets repetitive playing as green or purple constantly when you know there are a lot more color options. I’ve done coding for basic games in the past and so I know for a fact that it would be extremely easy to implement the option to choose your color in custom games (private matches).
Anyway hopefully 343 or whoever add it to the Halo Wars 2 it really wouldn’t be hard to put it in there, let me know what you guys think.
That would be a good feature. I really don’t know why this wasn’t in HW1 and it certainly should be in 2.
I would love to this this implemented into the game. It is overall easy to add and it is a neat, but small feature everyone will love to have. I’m hoping everyone would to choose their own choice of colors.
so simple yet its a must for any rts game, i say we should get it
i’d also perhaps think an ‘army painter’ like in dawn of war would be cool, where you can customise the look of your army through colours, emblems and decals to give every player a unique appearance
Sounds good but too Bad we have that stupid Red v Blue in multiplayer…

they could do a first come first serve system in MM, give us like 6 shades of red and blue to chose from, and then have the 1,2 or 3 players chose from those 6 colors.
Ya, bright blue brutes aren’t too intimidating. The banished’s color should always be red but half the time I’m forced to be blue, and they don’t look that cool anymore. And maybe a black color would be awesome.
I honestly don’t understand why this isn’ta thing. It isn’t super complex to do and shows the players some love.
Woah woah woah… A 343i game that doesn’t ship with the basic features of the genre? I would have never thought this would happen!
But seriously though, the last RTS game that I played that didn’t have a colour option was the orginal StarCraft (not counting Halo Wars 1). It’s become a basic standard for any RTS game, with many going above and beyond in terms of customization (like Dawn of War letting you create your own colour scheme). This should definitely be implemented.
Love this idea, it better then hoping to get that one colour you really wanted in Halo Wars 1
