Upcoming Booster Speculation

PvP only Accolade booster please.
Account-wide, all the +HP, +END, Geas, Megalomaniac/etc Accolades that only open up in PvP zones or Arena.

I'd definitely pay $5 for that.

Cowboy/Western Pack por favor! Dual Pistols wants it!

I still want some jetpack costume pieces, dammit. Not everyone wants to wear wings or rocketboots.

QR: Its getting to be that time, so I want a Halloween pack. And no, I dont think the Magic pack is it.

New Wolf heads, and retrofitted Council Vampyre costume parts would be nice. Many new wolf heads. Scary wolf heads. Yes. We need them. However the last thing i want to see is a Furry Pack. And before anyone starts, no I dont consider a scary-looking werewolf to be a "furry."

So I guess we'll know what the goods are next week, huh? Argh, I can't wait that long! I must know now!

*Glances at todays date*

*Crosses fingers*

Yes, even if they do not give us a date, telling us what it is, and some pics would be great.

I hate to want more all of a sudden, but GR was a bit anemic in the costume dept. Seeing such great NPC costumes (holsters for Maelstrom) was even more annoying.

I think we'll see a lot of what's been requested, really. Noble Savage's All Things Art: threads hit on costumes specifically at one stage and I saw a number of things canvassed that he particularly liked. What I saw he liked were:

Civilian/day ware clothes: Most notably what a lot of citizen NPC's wear.

Animal/alien-like parts: A particularly savvy forum poster Photoshopped many existing features onto faces to demonstrate how this could be done and his response was that the Art Department really liked this. The user also posted pictures of cowboy, tech armor, and magic costumes that were asymmetrical. These were asked to be forwarded by PM to Noble Savage.

Anime and giant robots? Apparently he really likes those and would somehow like to squeeze giant mecha in there. Go figure....

As many NPC costume parts as possible: He definitely said as many NPC parts from Going Rogue as they could would be ported over for player use (nothing was said about power animations and the like, but I guess it's possible) and that older parts such as Hellion and Skull jackets and other NPC groups would become available too.

I am expecting something of a costume explosion soon, and I'd fully back it. Releasing the NPC stuff to players would dramatically increase our options and allow those who want to theme themselves as a player version of an NPC group would finally be able to do so. In addition, it'd tide people over for a significant amount of times for 'regular' outfits whilst newer things can be concentrated on by the art team.

I think the only other options that he was looking at were those to do with holsters, back items and so on. It's been a sticking point for a while, but I think we might finally see some movement.


S.

Well we should find out today, being the end of august and all. . .

Whatever it is I hope it has a pie emote

Well.. I HOPE it's a Halloween booster set. I'd like to see one for major holidays but my favorite is Halloween. Would love to see new ghost, zombie, vampire, werewolf, skeleton, etc. bits and effects. Pumpkin attacks like the Firbolg have, juggling jackolanterns emote, pumpkin costume pieces (that follow the same set of options you have in the skull costume pieces), etc.

Dare to dream!

I've got all my bets on it being a furry pack. Hopefully it's good enough that we don't see future costume part threads clogged with requests for badger tails and frog legs and whatever else.

My own wish, though it will never come to pass, is for a high-resolution pack to fix all the ugly-*** low resolution faces, costume parts, and weapons.
