I wish we could have more players in one game, that way u can team with quite a few more buds if u dont wanna vs them. Plus we could get more colors which would be cool. But i think we might need bigger serves in game for that to run without lag.

3v3 and 4v4 maps would be pretty awesome.

It's about how many people are on the server at once not how many are in the same game at once (I think). From what I've heard, the current WI Server can hold around 2000 people. So I don't think we need to worry about the server getting laggy due to too many players (I wish we did have to worry about that).

Change pink to like a blackish color, otherwise this is pretty awesome

purple looks a lot like blue. It'd be quite confusing, the rest looks fine including pink. Black would be a cool color

Blackish could end up looking like neutral.

Maybe Scott could update M.exe to allow setting neutral's intelligence to human, and update the game server to allow the changes. That maybe could be done without major work to the game (since neutral is already an AI color) and at least allow 5 players per game.

I tried unpacking a map and modifying it to set neutral's intelligence to human, but it didn't work (probably because the server is only programmed to allow four human colors).

If only...

I mean, just think at the opportunities and the potential of this game thanks to advances in technology. If only Scott had more time and more people to help him in programming this game and such...

also, maybe for some missions, you could be the FR "Yellow, and some one else could be Orange to show they are FR also for missions, people could use purple to be Acme also, like in a mission, you play as Blue and uncontrollable Acme soldiers are purple or the other way around, your choice
