I'm anxiously awaiting the release of the game along with the rest of you. As is the case with many others, I'm highly enamoured of the idea of designing my own ships.
One thing thats not clear though, from the screens or anything that Ive read, is whether or not Ill be able to control the color scheme of my ships, in addition to the physical structure and capabilities. From the screen, it appears as if the the individual races always seem to have the same color scheme. I dont know if this is just coincidence, based on the preferences of the screenshot poster, or a limitation to the the ship design ability. Can I play as humans with red and black ships, or am I stuck with the traditional "good guy" white and blue?
This may seem silly, or inconsequential to a lot of people, but with all the other fantastic notions on customization incorporated into the game, this would seem an odd omission. If this has been stated elsewhere, I apologize...Ive spent the last week or so going through the boards and all the dev journals, but the answer didn't jump out at me anywhere. If it isnt in, I would like to make this my first feature request for future updates
Thanks!
