Arm, leg, and Headbands.

Simple, add these various bands of cloth that you can change the color of at any time.

could be used for - identifying survivors, identifying loners, fooling survivors, groups, clans. The list goes on.

Does not show up with the ghilli suit.

thoughts?

i think you should have to at least suicide to change the symbols, location, or color of the band.

makes it too easy for someone to infiltrate your team, or just cause enough confusion to ambush from a safe distance.

a person should have to at least conduct some reconnaissance, follow you to your base camp, memorize the coordinates, return to their camp and offload supplies, etc. basically, take all the grieving possibilities out of this addition.

In any kind of sandbox type game, you can grief with pretty much anything you do.

Its up to you to use good judgement on the information you're seeing.

This changes nothing as far as team infiltration goes and if you get ambushed you're going to be confused regardless of small bands of colors you can barely see.

actually it does change things, because your suggestion means that all they have to do is click the item, change the color and "blend" in, even if the group you're infiltrating accounts for everyone in the group before, during, and after a mission.

the seconds it takes for you to ask 'who are you,' or 'is that you xxxxxxx' means you're already dead.

im not saying it should be ridiculously difficult to change something like a piece of cloth, but it shouldn't be easy either.

in the marines, if someone wants to "blend" in with a squad or platoon, they have to mimic the placement of magazine, grenade, radio, and dump pouches. patches and insignia, as well as grooming standards, eyewear, etc. it should require some intel and pre-planning. not just click, click, wait....bang bang booom.
