"Pink it's my new obsession, Pink it's not even a question.."

Am I the only one who thinks that the pink/purple "nation color" looks just plain horrible? I hope I can change it with some editor..

Earthling7 · September 29, 2001, 07:47

It would suit the Amazones very well

Buck Birdseed · September 29, 2001, 08:02

I think it's cute myself.

September 29, 2001, 08:20

I'm with you Wexu. I think it's disgusting

Even without an editor it should (hopefully) be easy to edit in a text file. Like in CtP).

the FRENCH r pink!!!

i think it looks funny, yet fine. i wont mind if it ships like that

shade · September 29, 2001, 09:49

I really don't see the problem.The only reason why collorcod is used is to make it possible to quickly recognise the civ,so the more different the color the better?or am I wrong??

it really hurts the eyes. i remember how pink indonesians/welsh/fiji civs in CTP2 pissed me off with their stupid little pink flags.

Yeah, I really hope there's enough colors to not pick the pink one for some nation.

Well ... at least I know what country will taste my first nuclear missile!!

shade · September 29, 2001, 10:13

My civ will be a mighty one, I will not have it associated with "cute"

I think Firaxis has made some weird choices when it comes to civ colors, the purple and cyan is plain ugly!!

I'm sure it will be possible to change them though

So now we are arguing about civ colors?!?

Well, this is a good sign that people are pretty much excited about the game (except for those waiting for an update on MP

). Since people can't pick out any real flaws in the game, they still must argue about something, right?

Well, this is trivial at best. If you don't like pink, go to the editor and do whatever you want. I don't exactly like pink, but I'm too lazy to do anything about it. Just as long as MY civ isn't pink!

shade · September 29, 2001, 10:26

nah,it isn't totally useless,it just shows that some ppl can't live with the idea that their civ could have pink flags.
(and it gives all of us a new reason to moun about something)

Hey! What's the problem with purple? I happen to like it. In fact, it's my favourite colour.

Admittedly that's an ugly shade of purple. It'd be much better if Firaxis can make it deeper.

Buck Birdseed · September 29, 2001, 13:39

Oi! There's nothing at all wrong with Pink Flag.

Fiera · September 29, 2001, 14:04

Hmm, Snapcase, so you also browse allmusic.com! That's my favourite (and the best out there, I bleieve) source for music info.

Good for you!

Dimorier Maximus · September 29, 2001, 14:51

The first thing I will do in Civ3 is be a pink civ and conquer the world.

Col Bigspear · September 29, 2001, 16:09

I will make it my Personal crusade to rid the world of the French civ. 1. Im English and 2. That pink civ has no place in the world.

Oh, the All Music Guide is by far the best reference work on the net, period. It used to be pretty crap (it's servers were absymal), but now it's both fast, accurate and totally comprehensive. It also hyperlinks exceptionally well. I do wish it'd have some sound samples (there are servers for that sort of thing to link to) and an advanced search facility, but still, it's the only place for accurate discographies on the net and it's pretty well-written too. Probably my most visited site after Poly and Google.
