Can't believe you took out skin colours form the game, it helped to differentiate, aside from hats, your worms from the other team, it's worms 4 level of customization again.

The thing is, you added trinkets to the game, those require new models and animations, where skin colour is just a texture, even a plain one if you want. Don't take me wrong, trinkets are cool, the game it's looking amazing, but skin colour was a feature me and my friends liked a lot in reloaded, it made your team even more unique and adds to the whole presentation, being worms a team based game. I thought it was already implemented in Revolution, are there plans to bring it back sometime in the future in a patch/dlc at least?

Another question, there is team stats right?

Personally I never liked custom worm colours - personal preference, I suppose - but they're hardly essential. It's a bauble, at the end of the day. The worm names are presented as coloured based on the teams, so multi-coloured worms aren't exactly a dire necessity.

You should also be able to customize the worm's eye color, I think it gives them more character.

Is that really what you are wishing for?

On a sidenote, this doesn't even look all that bad. But still, bad idea. Bad, baad idea!

Well, it's not really an idea, it's a feature from past/current games.

About the green worm, yes, that's kind of odd, especially if you picture it in 3D. Those kind of colours were an option on Worms: A Space Oddity but having back the, more skin like, range of colours from Reloaded would be more than enough.

I meant the color of the worms pupils, not his irises. For those of you who didn't understand that, "I meant the color of the little black dots on the worm's eyes, not the gushy white part of his eyes."

That's not the iris but the white part in the eye. The DS version of Open Warfare 2 let you change that colour according to the skin colour so that's what I thought you were talking about.

It isn't in Rev and it wasn't something we thought was worth adding.

I guess if there is the requirement for this out there then we could look into it, although it definitely won't be in for launch.

Like hats before it, worm colour is going to be one of those largely irrelevant things that fans moan about for the next decade.

Oh please, there's a lot of largely "irrelevant" things that are included anyways. Worm and team names, different themes, high graphics, and hats. They exist because they make the game more enjoyable, so I wouldn't mark customisation features such as skin colours down as irrelevant right away.
