One more useless addition to Deathball?

Agreed there.. Let Epic address it.. I don't care to have the codes screwing up my logs though.

The worst bit is that 2k4 isn't even meant to have colour codes like that... it's a hack so it screws up everything that involves strings...

I wouldn't get used to this.

Besides being annoying and screwing up some of the displays, they can be used to confuse other players, especially on pub servers.

It will be gone $\o/$

Really, where?

ET Colour is ok, because it doesnt effect the err.. messages...

whereas this hack does, and is pretty annoying to boot.

the colour hacks is proven to make unreal servers which have someone using colour go up to 70% slower. this means it effects everyone playing. gg

its people who have half a color code in their name, and the rest is random shit that constantly happens.
