Airsoft Gear: ACU, Tan, or OD camo color?

I am going to be purchasing a MOLLE vest + pouches, and was wondering on which color/pattern is best:

ACU

Tan

Olive Drab (OD)

What are your opinions, and why?

Also, which is worst, if you cannot say which is best?

I wanted MULTICAM, but WAY TOO EXPENSIVE! and it is only available on plate carriers; i want a light mesh vest.

Update:

I play in Southern California, so there are elements of desert AND woodland environment everywhere. 'Lotta urban, as well.

I do, though, play in a desert type area, with dry brush. So, would ACU or tan do better?

I guess OD isn't too great, w/o deciduous forests haha

    What's most important is where you'll be playing, since tan won't blend nearly as well as OD in a forest setting, and vise versa with a desert setting. It also depends on what other camo you will be wearing, since it's better to match so you'll blend better.

    I'd use tan since I play in there desert, but I' not sure where you play.

    I don't care much for ACU.

    -edit

    I might try some MARPAT (Marine Pattern) BDU's if I were you, they are more for forest-esque environments, but they have a lot of browns and tans that also make it suitable for desert. I use them when I play, and I live in AZ so I know a thing or two about the desert lol.

    All three can be used. I would say the priority would be ACU Tan OD green If you search yahoo images for US soldiers in Iraq you will see all three combinations being used. Also, what do you think looks best?

    I love my multicam (when I wear it). ACU does well in a urban mountainous environment. I find it obnoxious in the forest. It ALL depends on where you play most.
