Description
Each faction will have a different glow. Guess which one is Ion faction, Kinetic and Hi-tech faction.
hang on, so your adding sub-fractions based on weaponry?
next thing you'll be re-naming it Homeworld 2 zero hour...
as much as i love the mod i think thats a bad idea
Have you played the mod that you don't know about it? That's a pretty old thing in REARM. I'm not sure when it was officially released, something was in 0.0.3 I think.
Anyway, you can totally ignore it, it's just a thing you can activate in a menu, or not. The normal gameplay is absolutely intact, nothing changes at all if you don't want it.
And yes, it's actually comming from the C&C Generals, look, I've even said that: Forums.relicnews.com
The balance is a real pain as I've found out with my own subfactions. I wish you all the luck with it in future! As for the colors, I like them.
I'm not looking forward to it. Also in my case it may be a little tricky, because I use the weapon based faction system. Some factions just don't have certain weapons.
ive played the mod and love the mod, just not too sure...
As I said before, you can ignore it, so where's the problem.
I like the idea, there is a great potential in subfactions, if done well ;)
Right now it's not ballanced anyhow, so it's pretty unfair I guess, but when all the ships will be ready, I'll make it more equal for all factions.
Why does this matter so much? I think its a cool idea. I wouldn't mind have a orange or green insides on my ships! Subfactions sounds like a good idea to me. Give it sometime.
OMG YOU DARED TO CHANGE SOMETHING! GOD WILL SMITE YOU!
Come on boys & girls, it's a MOD, it's sopoused to CHANGE the game.
Besides, you can ignore it and disable factions:

I really like the way Pouk is handeling this, it gives you a lot of flexibility as to how you want to play the game. I think this is something that really defines REARM, you just have a great number of options, meaning there's something in it for everyone.
And I really don't get the resistance to change. There's a lot you can accomplish in ways of making a unique mod with very small changes. And differenciated colors really isn't a game-altering modification but adds a nice touch.
I like this, everyone likes to customize there faction if not then who cares.
