I’m sure this idea has been posted at least once before but I was unable to find it among the archives of threads to revive it so. Why not open a color pallet for commander tags? Among the ideas for a “quick” add on till the title gets more options having the ability to change the color to create visible groups on the maps would, at least in my mind seem like a benefit for WvW. Not so much for PvE but the ability to have “Blue” commander Offense team and “Red” commander Defense team and vise versa depending on what the commanders deem which color to be for at that given time would help create a more visible strategy on the maps. Course this does have the issue of having Troll commanders all going same color just to cause issues but we have that as is. After experiencing WvW play on 2 servers and talking with other players from other servers it seems to be becoming a trend at least on the more coordinated WvW servers to run tagless which isn’t an issue in fact it’s proven successful to have multiple groups running around as either guild groups or simply random groups being tagless mobs but the constant Team/map chat spams of “where is —-—— group” after just logging into WvW or being separated from your previous group is rather annoying.
It’s a travesty that GW2 grouping systems have not been upgraded to an acceptable level yet. Social grouping is a huge part of MMO’s. Yet people still can’t organize with guilds or the way they enjoy with only two ways to group in game.
This needs to be the #1 priority for features.

I would love for there to be different colors and shapes of commander tags relevant to what your server makes of them. Shape could be progression while color is offense/defense etc. I’m sure there will be great changes for this in the feature patch since that CDI was in December.
Forgive me for bringing up a half month old topic but I’m sincerely hoping that the commander tag CDI that was brought up in this thread will have a lot of the ideas imemented in this patch. Its been over 3 months since the CDI and not to mention these things have been being asked since the game started as you can see a thread that was brought back to the living in the WvW section. Btw, did the second part of that CDI for commander tags mentioned on the last post that was supposed to be about “progression” ever get opened? I would love to take a look at it.
