worse because it is not unlocked if you paint your stripe you cant paint it back!!

Not the case.

If you have changed your stripe color, the original yellow 'swatch' still shows underneath the current color, and is selectable.

I can change back to the original colour like that on the camo screen but it wont save it back that way when I exit. Dunno if everyone has this problem but i cant paint mine back using this method.

Thought about it, and I would like to be able to apply the founder's camo with its specific colors to any mech I pilot. They are all a founder's mech :-)

Not a founder so I can't really say "I should get my founders colors unlocked!". But I can see where y'all are coming from, so I most certainly agree.

Also, if they did this with hero 'mechs, I would actually see them as a better deal rather than overpriced, assuming I didn't have the colors unlocked. Bonus if I could swap out the colors on the pattern.(But not swap out the actual pattern itself, since that is what makes them "special".)

Just tested again when i got home on the 3 founders i changed the yellow colour off of. If i go to the camo spec screen for example on my founders hunchback it lists the primary colour as obsidian black which is what i changed it to as the primary colour. If i change it using the yellow swatch underneath the current one the primary colour changes from saying obsidian black to saying nothing leaving the field blank and nothing changes visually on the preview mech. Then when i hit save if i go back into the camo spec screen it will still be listed as obsidian black like i had no effect at all.
Please unlock the colours for founders so that we can get back to the original scheme if I'd known it was a one way street i wouldnt have changed it to begin with.

+1 For Founder colors.

make that +2.

for all those worried about the founder's not ebing different enough. This wouldn't change how the founder's mechs look, just open up some extra colors for those who shelled out money early.

The difference in buying a founders (or Hero) mech and buying paint should be obvious. One is for stomping across the battlefield, the other is for painting mechs.
So the next time you buy a mech (Hero or Founder) please do not try to try rubbing said mech against your other mechs, paint does not reproduce or transfer successfully in that manner.

[Edustaja]

At least the yellow should be unlocked so you can get back to the original paint job you bought.
White and blue would be nice extras but not as crucial.

What's wrong with allowing the colours but not the skin to change on Founders Mechs. Hell, I'd be happy if I could at least choose which one og the three coulors I could alter. The same would be great with Hero Mechs. With 12 vs 12, greater Hud altering Ewar, Community Warfare and a steady supply of hero mechs coming it would be nice to be able to tell friend from foe visually.
