Is that little fiqureine Mimi from robotech?


Look at the two GIANT bottles of aspirin on the left. He must need those when he reads the forums.

Aha, I was ninja'd.
Nevermind. I can now stop preparing the Invasion of Paragon Studios to mutilate whoever I encountered if there had been no wolf head Bit of a no brainer that one, really.

I'll be happy if we get a minotaur, shark, or reptile head.

What about a hybrid of all three at once?

Oh wait, that's the current wolf head on live.

Edit: Jokes aside, looking at the full sized image and trying to figure out what is going on with the costume creator.

Does development use a slightly different interface? Clearly 7 bars there in the right hand side where we have six.

Based on the length of the words corresponding to what we have on live, from top to bottom, those cc categories are:

EDIT EDIT: IGNORE THE LIST BELOW, the following poster points out that weapons would be one of those options in the list!
  • Costume Sets
  • Head
  • ???
  • ???
  • ???
  • Back Detail
  • Auras

Second Edit: I think those are multivitamins. And I too am digging the Arachnos tumbler. Looks like In n' out for lunch today...

That would kinda make sense, wouldn´t it?
Ahhhhhhhh... thanks. A weapons based character. Yup. Brain is fixed. Move along. Nothing to see here.

Take a close look at the colors tab we have on live right now. Can we expand that color tab and pick multiple catergories on live.

Because it looks like Alpha Wolf has a category choice on his interface that we don't have.




He's got some sort of drop down menu above his color palette that we don't have.

He also has two buttons in the top left corner that we don't have.

Just judging by the color of those two tabs, it appears only one can be active at a time.

Actually yes. It's for showing SG colours when you visit a tailor.

And the top left is the costume-power buttons. There'd be a third (body) if he was at a surgeon.

I don't normally repost old dev posts but in early september Noble Savage started this thread.

http://boards.cityofheroes.com/showp...&postcount=280

Titled the Informal Art Poll

In this thread Noble Savage made these two posts.

Quote:
One thing to consider is that redo-ing the menus and placement of items within them is, in itself, a significant amount of work for the Character and Tech teams. Assume that any menu work will consume 50% of the time available for any redos.

Bottom line, avoiding menu work is preferable and brings us back to Options 1 and 2.

Hey, guys. Just wanted to thank everyone for casting a vote and for helping us get a better picture of what the playerbase is thinking. Here's my takeaway from reading the 22+ pages of thoughts on the topic: Arguments on both sides were compelling to the point where a third option, perhaps involving the menu setup, seems like the best way to satisfy all parties. This is NOT a promise of future action, but it's the view I'll express on your behalf.

So yay--everyone wins. We'll make every effort to create new pieces that give you all better options in areas that might be lacking. And don't worry, Option 2 folks--nothing will be removed from the system.

If anyone would like to comment further about specific costume pieces, please don't hesitate to post in the All Things Art thread.

Cheers,
Noble Savage

A part of me thinks the wolf is only part of the teaser. I think the other teaser is a new and more robust costume editor.

one of them appears to be multi-vitamins. My dad buys the same brand and I think I recognize the bottle.

They are dropping a lot of hints on FB. It's awesome. I love the eagle head and the Wolf head. I'm going to do some cool Egyptian stuff with that no doubt.

I hope they add a few options along with the heads: a couple (2 to start) hair options designed to show the ears properly, a few hats and helmets and especially hoods (and 1 special hood that points up where the ears are). Extra options like earring'ed ears, nose rings or face markings would be great but we don't even get those for regular faces.

And can we have more collar options? Better, more pronounced, spiked collar, studded collar, bell collar, one of those loose too-big collars that anime girls wear...stuff like that

Basically, anything that'd give beast heads some extras like other head options.

well, maybe, that would be great, but considering the last packs only had so many parts, usually a max of 2 whole sets per, we already have 3 animals, more would rock,buti i'm keeping myself restrained. i have been asking for fish stuff for a while, and it would work for some of my existing characters, so if we get soemthing for the sea, im all smiles.

True, but maybe this pack will be filled to the gills!

...

My fingers like to type these things, even when I tell them not to.


(for the record, I don't think there'll be fishy things, but I don't really know! There does seem to be something fishy about this whole pack... GAH!!)
