That is my problem in the trees and jungles i really dont know who is who :-(

is there a guide that would show me the different factions so i can study them ?

It really dosnt come down to uniform to distiguish the fractions, you should use kit geometry and animations/shape player models.

For example a PLA squad moving perpendicular to you inthe distance will look like they are crouching or hunched over, I find at least.

Try watching gameplay videos on YouTube to get a feel for the diffrent kit and player models rather than camo pattern.

I'm red/green deficient (not totally colourblind) and generally find that cammo in jungle areas is easy to spot. I fare very well indeed on maps like OGT and the ol' Mao Valley.

Where I *really* struggle is in Rise of Flight - I cannot for the life of me see a Spad 5a bolting at treetop height from 10,000 feet, the little buggers just blend into no man's land :(

Doubly worrying statement from a military man and a DEV.

Skotish when you're ready to go SL put a marker on em and check the map?
