After writing <a href="http://www.unknownworlds.com/ns2/forums/index.php?showtopic=117150&st=0#entry1914536" target="_blank">this thread </a>i notice that it would help a lot, if the commander of a team has a diffrent chat color for his own team, maybe some brighter and bigger font then default players.

    I like this one, just a different colour would be nice, no need to change the size. I believe NS1 did this.

    Awesome choice in colors and awesome original idea.

    When does a commander have time to type chat messages? I suppose if the comm doesn't own a mic (seriously though, it's 2012).

    I like the idea, just make sure the commander's voice chat icon is also a unique color.

    I wish they change color on commanders "voice chat".
    On public maybe 3-4 players can talk at the sametime and i dont know who is who!
    Maybe <!--coloro:#00FF00--><span style="color:#00FF00"><!--/coloro-->Green<!--colorc--></span><!--/colorc-->? And all the other marines should be <!--coloro:#4169E1--><span style="color:#4169E1"><!--/coloro-->blue<!--colorc--></span><!--/colorc-->?

    Sorry for my bad english.. im just a swedish viking.

    +1 to commander differentiation.

    Empires has this and it is very helpful, the teams are red and blue, and their commanders get a lighter shade.

    So light green/light blue might be good.
