I don't get why they do this for video games I can understand people putting a red cross on things that don't have medical supplies in them, but for games it doesn't make sense

There was a single line item in the patch notes that they changed it because of the Geneva Convention.

I suspect they got a letter though. Due to how long it took them to get around to it. According to that video I linked the Red Cross are rather nice about it. They aren't all sue happy like some.

In Soviet Russia... wait, wrong meme. Long live the suitcase... dang, it also has a red cross.
So is this the first colorblind feature that CCP has implemented? |

The Red Cross can loose their trademark (depending on local laws) if they fail to enforce it. |

Sending a letter is enforcing it. If the letter doesn't work I am sure they would take legal action.

The trade mark they have is a green cross and a green leaf, totally different and not protected by international agreements like the Geneva Convention. So nothing to worry about.
The Red Cross usage is more than just a trade mark issue.

This 150 percent. I play Prison Architect too and they sent them a letter because an ambulance shows up in the game with a red cross on it..... I am really unsure how a red cross in a video game could confuse anyone in real life or somehow make the cross less important when used in war time... But hey it's something to do... right?? |

Wait...
So the people who said certain parts of the Genvea Conventions should also apply to EvE were right all along? Who'd have thought..
They say Alpha clones are only for trying stuff. I say it's just the Hard Mode.

Red cross have been getting pissy about it when it comes to video games. Funnily TF2 and Valve haven't been affected but that's because they have more money than god. |

I have ceased donations to the Red Cross, forever. If this is what they're spending the money on then I'd rather give it to someone what won't waste it. |

My module lists used to be pretty colorful because of that red cross. Now I feel like a colorblind. Remembering once seeing an evil organization called "Bloody Cross" in somebody's cyberpunk setting. Maybe it shares the same symbol. |

You can still make your symbol of a corporation the red cross on a white background. What will CCP gona do about that?

I heard about a similar story to this regarding another video game.
I understand the real world implications but I dont understand how it could have any bearing what so ever on a module for a spaceship in a spaceship game.
Could we get picky, what is the exact colour of red that is theirs? Could you not adjust the values of the colour slightly, make it sort of brownish red or pinkish red..... how silly could that really get? |
