AGREED!

Minimum sufficient jackets, classic trench coat, double-breasted trench, double-breasted peacoat, normal peacoat, overcoat, biker jacket, and bomber jacket.

Now that I've diverted to Yugioh, once again, I think it would be nice to see very large, asymmetrical objects attached to arms. This doesn't just have to JUST be duel disks (Though I'm sure that specifically wouldn't be there, copyright and all that) but there's also other comic book examples of this, though the only one to come to mind is Grim Reaper.

No! Planes for Hands, Snakes for fingers. Must have snakes on a plane!

I think we've got this covered.

Quadruped cat models with highly textured and fully animated blue fur, please! *trills*

I did a search for this and didn't get anything, but if it's been brought up already, then this is a +1: High collars and full cloaks, a la Doctor Strange. UE4 should be able to handle both unless clipping is really that big of a bugbear--which it may be, I guess.

Also, PLEASE make hair and furr look like hair and furr, not like weird plastic applique as they do in Champions and DCUO, Hair looked more realistic in CoH which was made way before those games. It doesn't have to move, just look like hair.

Thanks!!!

The SIMS 4 addressed problem this nicely. Pick a hairstyle you like, then put the hat on with no clipping through of hair.

Ohhh.. you're most likely talking about using some kind of variant of the [url=http://wiki.unity3d.com/index.php?title=DepthMask]Debth Mask shader[/url]. Unity3D can do it, i think. Not Sure about Unreal. :/

Googled and found this:

Hmm... Doesnt look like they are using any kind of Depth shader approach. :/

But I bet if they wanted, they could have used a Vertex Pained approach. Have an invisible Collision Mesh attached to each hat, that would be used to detect where it collides / Overlaps / touches the hair mesh, and vertex pain it the hair meshes Verts. Have a Hair Shader that would read the painted verts and make its Alpha transparent.

Another thing, they might try placing an extra bone with each hairstyle, where the hats would best be mounted / placed. So, Even if you have a regular baseball cap, if can still fit on a hairstyle like:
[img]http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-8a0MtiH4wUg/TfB5KC_VNWI/AAAAAAABT4U/2TZPigOy4pI/s1600/w-570h-428-1832800.jpg[/img]

This is all in theory. I havent tried any of this yet.

Caveats?
Hmm... If the Verts on the Hair Mesh are too far apart, and depending on the Hats Collision / Cutout* mesh, very small transparent areas might be present on the Hair where it meets the hat, as a result. :{

I like this idea, sometimes you just want neat swooshy spike or bangs off this hairstyle and a beanie, or in my case usually bandanas and goggles, or some kind of spandex analogue super microfiber.

I'd like to request draconic body parts and skin styles. Frankly, what I really want is the ability to turn into a dragon, but that's less likely to go through - instead, scales, digitigrade legs, clawed hands, wings, tail, all that good stuff.

However, there's one thing I'd like to point out that's a bit odd. Might not work for the super-hero genre in general, but I like it and would use it. See, due to the way wings work, you need a forward pointed chest, to support the wing musculature. that's if we're being realistic about it - this gives a much larger emphasis to the chest than the shoulders: [url=http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-OQmK_Kk0C_c/UERylBxfEhI/AAAAAAAAABw/zTUpr_i3MH8/s1600/skyrim_dragon.jpg]here's a good example of what I mean.[/url] [url=http://41.media.tumblr.com/4f28ec3ec1b2920e19420873c8bea0a1/tumblr_nfk4hm4qzY1rpv933o9_1280.png]And another; you can see the curve of her chest and stomach.[/url]

I know that the whole chest request is unlikely to get fulfilled, but I figured I should make it anyways. Normal chest + wings = me irked. I don't begrudge others the stylistic choice, but it bugs me when I see it, and would like the option otherwise.

I also recognize the wing membranes in those two images are kinda stupid, but I figure I'll make one big complaint at a time.

I had, in fact, managed to completely miss that update O_O

I do. I'm hoping for different color patterns and the like, but the scale textures themselves look solid.

a minigun, a bazooka and a rocket launcher, also I want the ability to surf on a missle

While you're at it, I want to be able to ride an atomic bomb like a horse. Slim Pickens,"Dr. Strangelove" etc etc.

I want a high tech hoverdisk, a steampunk hover disk and a dieselpunk hoverdisk

Sashes and cummerbunds, especially swashbucklin' pirate sashes.

I'd like an ingame program that works like Microsoft Paint to let me make custom chest emblems including the ability to paste from my clipboard so I can use photographs.

While this last would be nice, unfortunately there are some nations that restrict the public display of a certain symbol that used to be a perfectly respectable good-luck symbol, until a certain political party decided to use it. Apparently it hasn't lost that taint yet. Anyway, without a way to ensure no one would be able to use that symbol, there would be a risk of a player in Germany seeing it, complaining, and getting the game banned there. There may be other symbols with similar issues, but that is the one I know about.

There has been some discussion of a system of player-generated costume pieces, but the consensus seems to be that any such pieces would have to be reviewed by MWM staff, at the very least.

I want a braid that looks good! Go to CO, look at their braided hair style. That does not look good! Go play Street Fighter. See Cammie! There's a nice braided hair style (two in her case, but you get the point!)

Bare minimum, a vetting process would be required.

I'm not even talking about someone (specifically) here in these forums pulling a stunt like this. It's just that I KNOW what happens when you give people unlimited customization options. As sure as day follows night ... you get the ... picture.

It's the same reason they will never allow a completely freeform costume designer as people will immediately clone Superman. CoH already had sertain combos review-banned for coming too close.
Same for custom sign phrases, at least in public areas.
Ahh well.

While they may never allow players to upload graphics content directly I still think the fact that they allowed for any kind of "player submitted designs" for costume items during the Kickstarter offers hope that they'll eventually establish a formalized submission/vetting process for these kinds of things.

I suspect once the game launches they'll be able to offer deals like the third-party custom character artists do: For a certain reasonable price they could help players come up with new customized items that'll be periodically incorporated into updates to the game's baseline. Doing it this way the Devs could easily control player submissions and restrict the number they accept/implement to reasonable limits given the extra time and effort involved.

TheMightyPaladin wrote:

Actually the custom design system I suggested could work if custom designs had a waiting period for approval. Anything offensive could be rejected. If people know that their design can be rejected, most wont even try stuff that they know will be rejected.
Honestly I wanted to make a Hispanic Toon with an image of Our Lady of Guadalupe.

If the Devs take the time to vet any submissions then that would be a de facto "waiting period". The whole point is that the Devs would have final say in what goes into the game regardless of how long it takes them to judge suitability.

But the real issue is that it probably wouldn't be as simple as submitting a pic via something like MS Paint that could directly be uploaded into the game. Player submissions would likely have to follow exact rules as far as formatting, resolution, texture maps, etc. While it's obvious that at least some artistically skilled players could satisfy those requirements it would likely be far easier for the Devs to simply take player "ideas/suggestions" and charge a fee for the unavoidable time and effort it will take to fully translate these things into the proper formats/structures that would fit into the game.

Not saying I don't like your idea in general - just saying it's not as trivial as you imply even if the Devs didn't have to worry about offensive material. Case in point: Why do you think the Devs only allowed for a max of 25 Fashionista pledge awards and charged $150 for chest icons (Iconic) during the Kickstarter? It's because they knew that each one was going to take some serious time and effort to work into the game. Same will be true if they allow for player submissions after launch.

How about colors and effects for projectiles like arrows? That way you can have arrows made of fire/ice/light/darkness/whatever.

JayBezz wrote:

You mean the costume piece? Like arrows in the quiver that you're holding being able to be colored or made of light particles?
Or are you talking about the FX of the cast?

The FX of the projectile as its being cast, although having the effects available for arrows in a quiver would be cool, too.

I guess it might have been better suited to [url=http://cityoftitans.com/forum/weapon-types]the weapon types thread[/url]. It just seemed like a general aesthetics suggestion that I wanted to get in writing before I forgot. Sorry!

Multi-layered costumes. (Jackets, straps/holsters, tights/shirts underneath) is a must.

Also, trench coats that actually look like trench coats, and not like a jacket with a cape sewed onto the back. You know, simulated clothes!

Capes and cloaks! Long, dragging capes. Also, capes that can be draped around the shoulders. (or on a single shoulder! player's choice!)

Elemental-based hairstyles! Oooo yes. Living flame hair! Ice-spikes! Chipped gravel! Even grass..? (more varieties = more happiness!)

Gloves and Bracers as separate layers!

Helmets and Hoods as separate layers!

Feet/boots, Foot accessories and leg accessories as separate layers!

Alright, i'm done for now.

I want a smoke bomb animation for teleport!!!

Also: scalable weapons. As in, smaller, bigger, thinner, thicker...that sort of scaling.

Glowing Eyes of Any Color for which you don't have to wait to get, but to be able to get from the start.

To those Glowing Eyes I would like extra options, like to be able to be turned off completely or turned on constantly and one more, third option which will be special, something in between, your eyes starting to glow only when you use your powers, like if you fly up they will slowly go white (change) and start to glow, but they won't glow for example when you fight with martial arts... because this is not special power, but more like something which any human can learn if he wants to. I hope this made some kind of sense.

Loincloth for Males...

I know that Loincloths look adorably on females and very gallantly, but I believe that they can look really well on males too.

Aura Glow...

It may not glow while you are walking (not using super movement power) and any power, but when you fly up it's start to glow together with the eyes, of course I would like it to have the same options as the glowing eyes, to be able to be turned off or be turned on constantly... and the color to be as we desire... of course the default color would be great if it had the powers color....

Real Wings which can appear and disappear under the skin

I would love to see something like in some of the movies about angels... like when the Angels want to show their wings, they grow up from their back blades, and spread up, without tearing the skin or breaking the bones, but simply appearing by magical means, like a glow representing your powers color, starts at first to glow in small area and then spreads up forming the feathers little by little, detail by detail, until they are spread completely wide as few feathers drop off and fly around... you know extra detailed or at least as much as possible... for some unknown reason I would really like to see that visually... of course this thing can happen without without the need of the glow, just growing on their own and showing up...

Different Type of Tattoos

Close to Unique or Original Costumes

I am talking here for costumes which were developed in the Marvel and DC Universe, with some changes, like color, material, and stuff like that because of licence.

Really large and wide spread capes... like literally so huge that they can float all around the other... you know something like the extra wide cape of Superman... I don't mean exactly superman cape, but it's shape and it's wideness...

And that is all for now, with which I could come up.

Oh yea... I would like a really detailed movements for all kind of unattached objects from the costume... like cloaks, trench coats, I would hate to see the cloak attached to the knees or to the ankles... such attachments always ruins the feeling of the cloak and how is suppose to move... with other words Realistic Bends and movements...

You mean like this?

Different draw animations for weapons! I'd love if the pistols used by my character formed in her hands like some symbiotic creation rather than draw them from holsters (magic pistols you could say).

Then maybe pistols firing things other than ammo...maybe OMG HUGE ENERGY BEAMS from them, or able to switch them up between the big attack being OMG WTF HUGE BEAM and a smaller beam.

I want different options for big mechanical backpacks with different weaponized limbs, like a steampunk one, a dieselpunk or a magitech one. Also I want a lasso... because science....

Someone mentioned not loosing hair when putting on a hat or cap. Ideally we could choose to have the hair disappear, pull through the back like a ponytail, be pushed down (party on Garth), or maybe even change color.

Hmm.. 2 versions of the Hat would have to be modeled. With and Without the ponytail. :/

I also want an energy net for a hold

I think I might of suggested this before but half masks (cover the face up to the nose, cover half of the face) would be really nice. Gasmasks, masquerade masks, and plague doctor masks would filter into this category

An example of a half gasmask: [img]http://s28.postimg.org/k4se5fja5/gas_mask_by_yuuza_d5ukxfm.jpg[/img]

That image also shows two other things that would be nice. The ability to color certain parts of the hairstyle different colors and cyberpunk looking costume pieces would be much appreciated (Same goes for Steampunk or Biopunk). Beyond that? Standard baggy and skinny jean choices (not all heroes/villains/vigilante roll around in tights), combat boots, robes, and long hairstyles for guys (back length at the most unless you want to go crazy with it) would be really nice as well

I wanna throw dynamite at people for science!!!

OK, when hat tights show up in the game [i]anyway,[/i] we know who to blame.
