All the other faction content colors look great and clearly represent the faction.
Clan Ghost Bear has icey colors and a fractured pattern like cracked ice.
Clan Jade Falcon has its colors fully represented.
Clan Smoke Jaguar has a jaguar pattern in their colors.
Clan wolf has a tiger stripped pattern with brown, green and silver....

Like why? Clan wolf is represented by reds in the logo and its colors are silver, green, and brown...That makes sense. Also the Tiger strip pattern perfectly fits a WOLF!

I think they need to redo that entire theme. Honestly I am tempted to go one of the other clans for the faction content just because of colors and patterns on wolf. They look horrible.

Dude seriously, all the other **** wrong with this game and you're nitpicking the color scheme for the faction colors...........

I really have nothing to say here.

[Dirgez]

Sounds like first-world problems...

Looked up a few examples. None had the pattern but lets skip that and look at just the colors. Most of them did have browns and greens. But the whole mech was painted that color. This one looks like 5 different mech color styles trying to fight over a place on the mech.

And it looks ******* horrible in my opinion. Why not use Alpha Galaxy Clan Wolf-In-Exile. Reds and browns go good together and better represent the damn colors of the logo.

Hell they could have just made up their own color scheme if they wanted too.

I like the colour selection but I do wish the skin they went with was the one on the IFR advertising artwork.

I'm not sure I agree with you, OP.

I feel that the no-nonsense brown and green camo really suits the whole professional soldier thing that clans have going.

Let's not forget you can swap the colours too. If you don't like the dull-brown then you could always change them.

Although it's hard to top Smoke Jaguar's rosette pattern the Clan Wolf scheme comes in a close second. At least for me.

Honestly, though, I think I would need to see each pattern on my 'mechs in a variety of different colours before I could judge properly which ones I like and which ones I don't.

because theyre not wolf in exile yet?

[Brody319]

Alright I guess if I am the only one who thinks the pattern and colors are ugly, I'll just pick a different clan for the faction content.

[Angel of Annihilation]

I don't necessarily like the colors but the pattern is pretty good. For example, I honestly think that pattern will look awesome in the black and red the 13th Wolf Guards like to use.

[Alek Ituin]

Wait a second, did they release the Clan faction packs yet?

Never mind, move along, these aren't the droids you're looking for... >_>

To be fair, none of the 'mechs should have much camo. The non-invasion basic camo is the closest to actual clan patterns you might see on the battlefield. They were minimalist, and clan wolf's "color" is mostly grey - as in unpainted.

I think the faction content was not intended to be used in the way it's set up by default. That sounds weird, but look at each piece in its own right. With the brown replaced with silver, and the green replaced with brown or black, it'd look fairly wolfy, actually.


So while the camo pattern itself gives you "wolf pelt", the colors it gives you are clan wolf's most common parade colors. Becase they're giving you both, they slapped them together, but they don't really go together. Pretend the Mad Dog is painted silver and black and look at the colors seperately, and it doesn't look so bad. That, and the pattern makes a lot more sense in a wolf sense. More than pimped-up-civic-paint falcons, that's for sure.

Welp. There's my paint job sorted for CW right there.

[Willard Phule]

Well, OP, you see....this is actually the second try at the Clan Wolf logo.

When they first put it out, the forums went crazy with complaints about how the logo was overpowered. So, in typical PGI fashion, they let Paul re-draw it with his Nerf Bat.

What you see now is the result.

[Myke Pantera]

I think it's second best after the clan ghost bear camo. I kind of like the wooden grain. Reminds me of electronic guitars with a nice flame maple top, preferably sunburst.
