a long time ago I was on the team(Ren2007 days) and used to be in contact with Fobby, either he's not around anymore, doesn't get messages,or really doesn't like me for some reason. in any event I'd like to talk with someone in charge of RenX
You want to ruin one of the most entertaining infiltration tactics ever (Right after harvie hug) just because petty worries.
I already conceded the point about tricking the enemy which is why I suggested making it so your own teammates see the alternate skins on allied hijacked vehicles this conversation brought up another good point:your team is pushing into the enemy base there are enemy vehicles and a few allied hijacked vehicles and you just arrive to the scene, if you could tell at a quick glance which of those mammies are on your team it would save you valuable time and effort if you didn't waste crucial shots on your allies' hijacked vehicles.
I'm not exactly new here I was on the team when it was still Ren2007 but that was quite a while ago, so I'm sorry if this is the wrong place for this but I wish to make a suggestion:team colored hijacked vehicles so that we can tell at a glance who owns a vehicle without having to look for the color of the name of the driver especially to curb that brief jolt of fear when I see a big yellow Mammy rolling into my nice clean Nod base much less being that mammy and getting shot at by my team. I know it can't hurt but it's wasted effort and annoying.
And there is precedence for this in the CnC games.
plus I think it'd look cool(these are examples I made on the fly so lighting and color is all wrong):

gee, Fatality, maybe they'll make exceptions for longstanding community members, or even past members of the team(who remembers when it was "Renegade 2007"
I never got an email either, in neither my in-box, nor my spam box. However, I was still able to reset my password by attempting to log in and clicking the 'forgot password' link.

I hope NOT. I hate it when game developers do that sort of crap. It's so stupid. It never even looks good; they always end up looking freakish and unnatural.
It's good. The APC and Sakura seem especially amazing, but the Flame tank strikes me as underdetailed, especially next to every other vehicle you've done.
