    It means there are a lot of smart ***** that are no help at all on this thread.

    Depending on the color choices you can now customize (screw up) certain thing. They could be friendly or enemy fire. Say you tell your friend to just look for blue flashes or red flashes on their map is that going to mean friend or foe? Make the game work. Take away the customize and just make it consistent. Some things might be fun to mess with but in this area the game worked fine and didn't need to be changed.

    Its supposed to be an indicator of who is fighting there from what i've seen. So you have some sort of idea if theres friendlies or not.
