Thread: Character appearance

  1. #11

    Voice and skin colour changeable would be nice, since those in creation screen do not always represent those ingame (e.g. you can make "wrong choices" with best intend here).

    For roleplaying and variety, there should be more skin tones available anyway (e.g. make those all available independant of "race"). This would also give a huge variety in facial expression/class/skin combinations. All without meddling with models, classes or races.

    As a GM once stated, changing any of the appearance features is likely to "mess up a character" completely (I tried to get blue eyes on my Stygian character).
    • Remove daily rewards and the raid finder;
    • remove membership bonuses;
    • disable PVE XP for daily challenges;
    • remove WBs forever on Crom;
    • slow down the AA gain;
    • lower the PVP XP gain or remove the streak system;
    • remove AoE looting;
    • add the missing mobs back to Khesh., F. of the Dead, and Eigl. Mount.;
    • fix the 250+ms ping;
    • take the key away from Saddur;
    • revert T3, T3.5 (10.21.15), T4 (10.21.15), and GGG changes;
    • remove energy and add skills (like taunt) back.

    Why can't they let the customers decide, what is "messed up" or not?

    I can not guess of a TECHNICAL reason to disallow skin tone changes (or are they using limited color palettes, each different for model????).

    And no one is asking for purple or bright red skin permanent, just the natural ones should do.

    Pretty sure someone from FC said at one point that adding complete character recustomization would be extremely work-intensive due to technical reasons specific to AoC, and so is unlikely to happen.

    Can we then get official statement from FC?

    Probably because they would need a new interface programmed for it and those who programmed the original char creation are not in the company anymore.

    Still this argument is invalid when it comes to skin color. Already items in game changing it and they just need a new vendor or add them to the markings ones. We are talking about 4 different colors per 4 races here...e.g. 16 new items in total. Extremely work intensive?

    What might be a problem is their database structure, because i can imagine problems appearing like with beards, when obviously the possible beard types are limited.

    Still....just imagine a hidden door in the sukhs of Khemi...a sign saying "magic potions and enhancements". Then inside a copy of Tarishas shop and a magician making a living of altering the looks of rich foreigners, spies, criminals and noble stygians alike Or a witch hut deep in purple lotus swamp or the laceish haunted woods...

    Currently, character re-customization is not something we plan to make available right now as it's very intensive to get this set up.

    Should our plans change and we offer character re-customization, we'll update our playerbase. Thanks for bringing this up again, it's an intriguing idea certainly!

    Is way easier to create something from scratch than changing something already created. At least about programming.

    Some times you just have to start over.
    I'd sign up for AoC2.
