  • Different cammo schemes for ships...

There has been alot of people that have asked for a painting tool to change the color on their ships. I understand why you guys (the NF devs team) can't do this, however here is another way to let players change their color scheme... They just can't customize it though.

Instead of letting everyone color their ships to their fancy, just make a few different cammo schemes per each ship and let players earn them by lvling their BO...

Example: Get the basic cammo scheme for the New Orleans at lvl 46 (when you first have the option of choosing that ship if you didn't go Portland route) then have a second cammo scheme at lvl 50, a 3rd cammo scheme at 54 and so on like this to earn different cammo schemes. However let there be a small fee per cammo scheme. 1st cammo scheme costs nothing, 2nd cammo scheme costs 4K credits, 3rd cammo scheme costs 8K and so on... This will allow people to have different colors on their ships yet it shouldn't cause a whole lot of braodband either...

I dont mean to be a pest about this post, however I have found another website
showing mutiple cammo schemes for U.S. warships during WW2... If this game was
to add this suggestion, here are some schemes they could use, as well as the ones
that have already been posted....

NO I didn't mean any purple/red/yellow kinds of cammo schemes... Instead the devs team could do just a little research and see the kinda of cammo schemes per nation per ship class...

Here is a link that shows two different cammo schemes on the fletcher class www.modelshipbuilding.com/350fletcher.html

Another from this website showing a cammo scheme on the baltimore class www.modelshipbuilding.com/700pittsburgh.htm....

Some different cammo schemes for the Alaska class BCs http://www.modelwarships.com/index1.html...

Cammo for the Portland

However there were some ships that had green schemes as in these Japanese CVs.

And because of the Japanese pride of the day the Kaga even had a "target" spot on the flight deck for our dive bombers at Midway...

So exgreg, it might be awkward but there were some funky color schemes... Why would you make your CV stand out with a big red/orange dot on the bow? Heck spotters probably could have seen this in horrible weather... As far as the green on the CVs, it was to help shield enemy spotters to kow if planes were on deck or not, as you see in the picture... Green ship and green planes, it goes pretty good with each other. But why not make blue planes, since this is the color of the ocean and sky with a blue ship, since this is the color of the ocean? I dont know it, just makes sence to me though....

Now just by looking at color schemes like this you can have multiple scemes.... Black/Grey/White can be in jagged line form or on a wavey like form or fading form, as the Guam has in the game.

What he is saying isnt really an "upperhand" feature, its just a thing do be different or just somthing else to keep people occupied. The color schemes could be different shapes of black, grey and white or there could be some outrageous schemes like red, white and blue or rainbow. You get the picture.

Well, what color cammo exactly? Green ships don't tend to blend in with the ocean to well, if you mean like the bismark, I guess it would be a good idea
