Thank you Pilgrim for the great work you put in! It's a shame I've been so absent this year, so I'm glad you chose to stick to your guns a little longer. This way I may yet come to enjoy your leadership a bit more in the coming year when my life finally starts settling a little.
Also thank you to all of GOL for the great time and dialogue. It's always a pleasure with you lads.
It's hilarious that infinity ward actually went with this model.
What in the ever loving fuck did i just watch. Gave me a true garrys mod SFM vibe.
Squad is a ridiculously popular game. We struggle to find servers not because there aren't any but because all of them are full, some of them have cues of 10-20 people.
I'm thinking this could be a good way of getting our name out there as a group that plays tactical games. Provided, that is, we manage to grab sufficient numbers.
Something for Council to consider? Pilgrim
I agree. This reminds me of another short discussion we had on here about reintroducing the clan tags. It might help if we also jump into other servers with {GOL} mounted, especially if we perform well.
Maybe Antistasi would be a good one? It'd allow people to freely join in and leave as they see fit. Or the other similar one we've already had on the server for a while, i don't remember what it's called. Although me personally i like the challenge of supply management and scavenging that Antistasi offers.
I'll have holidays from next saturday onward until january 2, so i'll join in as often as i can to bolster our numbers.
If my new mission performs as intended it won't be very dependable on numbers and very much replayable, so it should work well for public games. But that'll be up for debate once we get around to play it.
Gotta love that DLC watermark.
I'm for #9 as a shoulder patch. I'm torn between #1 and #2 as the emblem. Looks great man.
I agree, i think it looks better just blank. The fade out on the chains is a great idea, especially on a border-less shield like yours.
As for the colors i think the second and third are the best ones. Tan is definitely a good color to stand for the ground troops.
For me personally blue is just automatically associated with either the navy or airforce, so i'd stick with that, but i guess it's up to air corps what color they'd like to represent them.
How about it?
Edit: Maybe the yellow is too much. I'll experiment with some softer colors. But then again, it'll make the patch very clearly outlined in game.
I love the last one. The only thing i can think of now is that the text floating over/beside the patch will look weird on the in game camo. I'll try to adapt mine to your standard.
Chroma Oh god, anything but that!
Edit: I guess we could make the red part green, would fit the infantry well. We'd just be italians then.
Chroma I like the white stripe, adds texture to the whole thing. I'll include that in mine as well asap.
Filth
So maybe something like this? Simplissimo, i like the idea.
So with the feedback i included:
- brighter colors
- more AAC
- less latin
- bigger font
Generally i think darker colors are aesthetically more pleasing but it makes sense in the context of an in game patch to have it be more visible. I guess we'd have to experiment with that a bit.
What bothers me personally somewhat is that crossed muskets and eagle heads are very widely used already, but i couldn't think of much else. Ideas are very welcome.
Also, it's just a bit too simple so far, but i can't put my finger on it.
I got some positive feedback on the original thread so i made two rough drafts. Very simple design for now - red for the ground troops (and the many casualties *wink*), blue for the aircorps and a broken chain for liberation. I used the Swiss shield template since i had it on hand, but this can easily be changed.
What do you like/dislike? What would you like included? What should be changed? Inspire me ladies and gentlemen.
