Green has more positive connotations. All systems green ect. while yellow is more of a warning color.

All though I do ask that strong base primary colors are used for every thing. There are players (my self included) that have a lot of trouble distinguishing between the lighter spectrum's thanks to various forms of color blindness. For fully monochromatics a arrow or triangle pointed up or down would help out a ton. It would also help to reinforce the data being presented for those with full spectrum vision.

Wow.. been a while since i have stood on this particular soap box.

Green ftw. Nice and straight forward.

I choose..... Yellow! Just coz I think It suits an Optimal level color. While I think Green is lower/lighter color for Optimal and is more suited to lower things.

I.E
Red for Very Hard
Orange for Moderately Hard
Yellow for Normal/Optimal/Medium
Green for Moderately Easy
Blue for Very Easy

A colour-code seen in many other MMO's to label the difficulty and thus 'optimal rank' of an enemy. He has a very good point with this me thinks.

Greetings.

We wanted to get your opinions about whether you feel green or yellow would be best for when your level is the optimal level.

Lemme know!

I think green is universally accepted as a color that indicates things are optimal. Certainly more so than yellow would be, at least.

well Green.. all system go go go

"Optimal" is associated most strongly with green, in my opinion.

[Dreadnought]

yeah id think yellow should be the first step surpassing optimal.
i vote green for optimal.

[Rynithon]

My vote would be for Green being optimal. Just like signal lights, green is go, yellow warning, red is stop.

Also -

I think the system as laid out in the "UI Adjsutments" is a little too unintuitive.

In my opinion, the UI should be more simple and easier to understand, using as little colors as possible to convey necessary information:

RED - player is below optimal rank, AND player is not the optimal class

YELLOW - player is below optimal rank, OR player is not the optimal class

GREEN- player is optimal rank or above, AND player is the optimal class


Don't need purple at all.
