Katanas do not go on the back.
ALWAYS the left hip, to be drawn by the right hand. If DB with katana blades, then they are still both on the left hip.

There is apparently an issue with the anchor point on the back. You can see the issues when using one of the temporary jetpacks on Huge characters. The jetpack seems to melt into the back of the character.|

Jetpacks: Yes we DO have jet packs but only temp ones, for some reason one of the most basic of 'super hero' travel items is ignored as a costume option for natural or tech origin heroes. Why is that? Its not like we dont see npcs with them all the time so why cant we have it? Even the jump packs would be good for a costume option for super jump. Instead we get rocket boots and tech wings. Weapons on Back Ever wonder where the heck your DB, Mace, axe or katana hero puts their weapons? Even if it dosent show them actually pulling the weapon off i would love it if they just showed the weapons on the back. Backpacks Odd we dont have these either. Military bags, schoolbags, ect. Just seems odd. It just seems odd that these items were never added to the game as options for costuming. Looking over the costume request thread i can seem more than a few posts asking for these things. What i want to know is why after this many years of the game being online havent these been put in? NPCs have them, is there some reason PCs dont get them? Id settle for the ones thay have at least! |
They know we want it, and I'm pretty sure they want to give it to us. They just need to figure out how to do it without breaking something else.
New story arcs coming soon (ARC IDs will be aded when I finish the arc):
So, you want to join the Hellions? (level 1-14 Villainous arc)
Sparks & Steel (level 5-20 Heroic arc)
and
So you want to join the Skulls? (level 1-14 Villainous arc)
It's not a matter of having the models for them...it's a matter of having them look good. If you pay attention to the temp jetpacks, they only look good if your toon is regular sized. Create a new toon, and set all sliders to minimum, to make the smallest toon possible. Then, use a jetpack. You'll notice that it's not connected to the toon, but rather hovers off their back. Now, do the same with a Huge toon, and you'll notice the jetpack is embedded in their back.
The reason NPCs can have it is because they're all one size. With all the different sizes we can be, the reason we don't have them right now is because there's no attach point back there to put them on. It's a limitation that's being worked on...but Jay's only one person. Now that he has an assistant, it may come soon, hopefully...but there's no way of telling.
