No thanks. I don't want to be tracked by everyone nor do I want a million dots cluttering up my map.

Well they already didn't like the idea of changing nameplates because of stress on the servers, this is even less likely. The game would need to check every character in an area when you open the map, and cross reference it with a potential 512 members in your fc. Imagine the processing of every person in mor dhona checking their map.
Greetings, everyone!
Thanks for the suggestions. :)
In the past we commented that it would be difficult to implement settings that would allow you to change nameplate colors for certain players, but the status has changed slightly and below is a message from Hiroshi Minagawa with an update.
Awesome!
hhhhhhhh
Awwwww yes!
Thanks!
Party Leaders / FC Officers also please? At least, in chatbox.

The party leader gets a different icon beside their nameplate. I don't think there has to be anything more than that. Plus chatbox colors are based on chat channel and have nothing to do with character nameplates. Those aren't going to change. This thread and the dev response are for the names above people's heads. With that in mind, take into account that Minigawa stated FC/LS Members getting nameplate colors was difficult. Subdividing FC for Officers/Members would be even harder. Frankly if you have trouble remembering who your officers are you have too many officers.
Thanks! The idea of having different color for those in friend list can be awesome too! So you quickly difference them in crowded areas
If it's implemented, I think it should be a privilege that the FC Master decides.
