I'll use it, just because you kinda have to, since the default is like unreadable black on black.
Story Arcs I created:
Every Rose: (#17702) Villainous vs Legacy Chain. Forget Arachnos, join the CoT!
Cosplay Madness!: (#3643) Neutral vs Custom Foes. Heroes at a pop culture convention!
Kiss Hello Goodbye: (#156389) Heroic vs Custom Foes. Film Noir/Hardboiled detective adventure!
*Shrug*
Personally I won't ever use it.
I wasn't aware this was coming, hopefully it won't produce the myriad of easter egg colors I'm seeing in my head...
I'm still getting used to the new Help/Helper colors as it is. That purple can make it hard to read sometimes so I can only imagine the abuse.
Wait a sec...
Doesn't this entirely negate the reason they added the color coding to helper/help? Figured that was to make it easily recognizable from afar, won't really be useful if every player now has a different 'set' of colors floating above them.

Ummmm, that feature isn't new... it is unlocked with the 80-something month Veteran Reward on Live. I just ran an ITF with a dude who's title was black.
[Edit] 84 Months, to be exact. http://wiki.cohtitan.com/wiki/Vetera..._Month_Rewards [/Edit]
I didn't even consider that this might be a vet reward. I felt it was a cooler feature when everyone had it, now it's just some random power I have to choose as I make my way to those awesome Tier 9 costumes. What reward being offered in that Tier would you pick after Colorized Titles?

Actually I'll probably purchase enough points to get to Tier 9 the first month Freedom goes live.

Yup this has been in since the 84 month veteran reward went live and can be changed at any time using the /title_change command.

Actually when the Devs introduced that as part of that Vet award it wasn't even officially confirmed until a few people stumbled over it like you did and started asking "what the heck is that?" here in the forums.|

It took like a week or so after -after- that Vet award went live before the Devs finally verified it was actually meant to be part of that Vet award and not just some feature that got released to the live build by accident.

When you consider the weirdly "side-door" way they handled this it almost (almost, mind you) seems like this was an unintentional leak of a new feature and instead of yanking it back out they just decided to "pretend" it was always supposed to be part of that Vet award.|

I know this idea is highly unlikely, but frankly I'd almost rather believe that semi-silly explanation of events than to think the Devs just plain -forgot- to mention a significant part of a Vet award in the patch notes and left it so that'd we'd have to stumble upon it on our own.

Has happened before.

I don't ever use Titles but I do display badge names. I never Select A New Title at the trainer, the only time I see that screen is when I accidently click that option. Well on Beta I did just that. The screenshot on the left is from live, the screenshot on the right is from beta.
So soon we will have the ability to pick a color to display our origin specific titles with. Seems like we'll have a more robust color selection for titles then we do in the costume creator.
Who plans on putting this new upgrade to use? I can't think of any use for it except to change the color of my title so it compliments the colors of my costume.
