I know it would require coding but I think the shear amount of feedback the devs would get from this would be MORE than worth it.

The one thing I would have to say is that Free accounts would not... could not count. VIP and Premium only for many reasons.

But /signed so very much. Please Zwill pass this idea on.

I know I presented it as fact but its still my opinion. But I was trying to explain the design standpoint to those that were asking for clean versions and complaining that by not having clean versions the set was limited in its versatility.

I too hope for a clean version of the mask and pants. And we may get them because the devs are cool like that. It is however unlikely in my opinion.

I would say that they aren't. In fact I would say that they expected people to ask for that which is why Dink said in the first post that they would NOT be making them.

I'll reiterate since nobody read my last post about this.

We will NOT get clean versions of the Post-Apocalyptic pack parts in the Post-Apocalyptic pack because they would NOT fit into the theme of Post-Apocalyptic. The idea behind all the costume packs is to enable the players to make more characters in that vein. If you start to add stuff that is not in that theme you loose focus on what you were trying to accomplish in the first place. The packs must be limited in some fashion.

So if you want to use X,Y, and Z costume parts for something else ask for it in the forum of a new pack or an individual costume pack.

This is partly the comuintys fault. You asked us if we would want revamped old costume parts or new ones. We told you OMG NO DON"T TOUCH THE OLD ONES!

This resulted in the "Keep moving Forward" Mantra we hear from you guys when ever we ask for costume parts we already have. So now that we have clairafyed that what it is we want is in point of fact not in the game, steps can be taken to make it happen.

That is a very feminine gas mask GG, I don't know how you can't see that.

You do realize that if they did add clean versions, people would complain about it?

By not having clean versions this pack is focused on the post-apocalyptic setting. If you add clean versions then what is it? The post-apocalyptic with a working dry-cleaners pack?

People would say that "I've been waiting for X# of years for clean football pads and now their in the post-apocalyptic pack! I don't want to buy that!" Or people would say that having so many sport based parts and having dirty and clean versions that the pack lacks direction and is a blatant money grab at two different target groups.

No, they can't offer this pack with clean versions. If you people want a sport pack ask for it, Ask them to use the same things that are in this pack with a cleaner texture. But realize that these packs have to be focused on one sub-set of one general idea. When you break out of that sub-set and add thing that are out of place people get mad. (see the animal tail in the mutant pack).

Yep like Splaterhousehouse for example. Cursed Vodoo hockey mask wearing, chainsaw wielding, sports jock on a mission to rescue his girlfriend.

AKA SuperHERO.

At once oh great master of the tangents!

So.... you drink that German beer yet?


EDIT:
You know theirs this other side to the game called City of Villains...

[s]Not to derail this thread but could you give some examples?[/s]

To avoid derailing this thread could you give some examples in the "All things Art" Thread?

Yes! We need Chainsaws for claws then I can finally make another tribute to my favorite fighting game Resurrection:Rise 2!

ATO2's are NOT ready. Coruptor, Dom, and Controller all need work.

Yes! And there are some that are naturally quite! Namly titan weapons, I have my game sounds set at 20% And I have iTunes running in the background playing music. I can always hear my attack sounds on everything but my TW character. My BS/SD I can hear over ACDC I can hear my DP/Traps over Guns and Roses I can hear my Bot/FF over Five Finger Death Punch.

I can NOT hear Titan Weapons over the sounds of Shiny Toy Guns. (Or any of the other above mentioned bands.) The only way I can hear the CRUNCH of my TW character is if I just have the game sounds on. Which is very upseting when I see my character swinging around this massive hammer and hear nothing of the impact.

Yea maybe if confront was replaced with a power that spawned a ROFLOLCOPTOR or one that built a cottage around yourself I would take that.

But another attack? I end up dropping one to two attacks at 50 due to high recharge anyway. And I almost always have enough attacks as I level.

I wouldn't want another attack on my scrapers aside from being a balancing nightmare and a lot of work to do it would just be unnecessary.

Right so its at least 10 years old. Going Rogue was a big update for it, but still...

I can only imagine how bad some of the tools must be by now. Maybe they just need to bludgeon the code monkeys harder?


EDIT: Do we know how mutch of it was made by Criptic? I mean yes its their engine but that doesn't mean that parts of it weren't outsourced.

Why? Why not just have attacks? Why do you need a taunt power?

Yes and I'll do the same on my SOA, Scraper, Coruptor, and MM.

No. But I have done some work on mods for Morrowind, Oblivion, Fallout 3, Fallout NV, Skyrim....

Yea, I'm one of those people ya got me. And I get that things can take many hours of work but what I said was based off of a lot of the things they said over the years. About how its easier to make a new zone than to re-make an old one and how slowly we get new mission maps for things like paper/radio missions. Really does sound like map editing is harder than it should be.

Still at then end of the day, I know NOTHING. And you can quote me on that.




(I may still argue my point tho, see sig.)

Mutter.. Grumble... Darn POS, backward, OpenGL, out of date, Cryptic engine.

To be fair I was only thinking about making the statue it self. Which appear to use the same model as the costume parts with a rock/granite texture applied. IT may also be baked into one piece. That much should be easy. I totally forgot about issues that might crop up placing it in the world-space, although if its that much of an issue it tells me that you guys need better dev tools. Maybe some sonic ones, eh?
