All of your questions pretty much have one answer:
The development team is not made up of an infinite number of people. They'd LOVE to add the kind of customizing that you're suggesting but they have a limited pool of resources. So they try to make things that cover what a majority of people want.
There's an infinite number of ways to punch people or swing a sword. What's in the game is a representative subset which covers 90% of cases. You're supposed to pick something that's close enough and imagine any differences you might have. Same with bases. There's millions of different ways to design a chair but the options available are close enough to what most players are looking for to work 90% of the time.

Why can't Assault Rifle get any love ? First no color and now no new animation ! Why can't we get a choice of types of shot fx ? Not all supes with guns use bullets ! Why can't we get a choice of bullet fx or laser fx or plasma fx ? And what about a sound option for ARs ? I could live with the fx but at least give us the option for a laser/energy type weapon sound. Nothing is worse than trying to get into your sci-fi/hi-tech/ advanced toon than always having to hear BOOM BOOM BOOM going off. Or why can't say an energy blaster be able to pick a gun model instead of it coming from his body as a short term fix ? Why are we punished for wanting a base ? So since the super leader option alot of people are afraid to invite new people and have started kicking people from SGs in these troubled economic times in case they have to miss a month or 2 and live in fear of a coup of a group they have built up over the years. Smaller groups mean a lot less prestige [ and those poor souls who really want a small batman-esque type batcave/SG ] so it will take FOREVER to build anything at the current prices. The sick bay tel. addition needs a BAZILLION HPs to be able to acquire for only a small gain . Base Teleporters..... So we scrimp and save and spend all our influence to buy prestige to build a second teleporter room [ becasue for some reason teleporters can't support 4 beacons ] BUT if you have to move your base around to accomodate the new room and you have to delete your current teleport room you have to sell your teleporters because YOU CAN"T set them anywhere temporarily outside a teleport room forcing you to spend more money to build the teleporters again. WHY can't we set room specific items in other rooms,making them nonfunctional of course? That alone would allow many more options for base decorating. Why only straw and bloody medical beds ? It just goes on and on. And why still only Tech and Arcane ? There are hundreds and thousands of terrain,interiors,set pieces in the game and we only get 2 sets ? Why ? Does it really break the game if I use the Liongbow base items in my base so it doesn't look new when I go into Longbow bases in a mission ? |
