Tights = Pro Wrestling costumes or "I wear my undies on the outside"; not that I mind more patterns but more pieces should come first (IMO) and then we can add patterns to the whole shebang.

i don't mind tights, i rarely use them because for a character that is supposed to integrate into a real-ish world, they look hysterically corny, but they have their place in comics, generally in older, throw-back comics where they dont look drastically corny in context, but that is one thing i hate about longbow, non-powered people wearing tights just looks silly and would be horribly non-functional. where the heck do they even store their ammo?(yes i know some wear bandoleers, most dont) What i'd like to see is tights being treated a bit like martial arts outfits. you can use most martial arts in a comfortable set of jeans and a t-shirt, but the robes and gi's are there to visually distinguish the character right away as a martial artist. tights on enemy groups should be limited to those who are actually powered. in this respect crey gets it the most correct, gunmen and techie guys wear appropriate armor, and the powered wear tights, great progression.. we also got a lot of "tights" enemies and allies in tips missions. but for the overall game, i like the balanced approach, more tights, sure yeah, but in balance with more power armor, more martial arts garb(why the HELL dont we have a good fighting cheongsam yet?) and more beast options. there is a reason i play 2 superhero mmos and not the third, two draw from a balanced set of outfits, and one is all damn tights all the time. |

I know that's more like 4 options (Left Double Pin, Left Single Pin, Right Double Pin, Right Single Pin) The possibilities for different pin stripe options could be quite vast, as I can think of several off the top of my head. (Lightning, Flames, Circuitry, Shred, Dotted, Dashes, Tribal, & Celtic) Lastly it would be nice if we could choose to have the chest detail smaller and on one side of the chest or the other. Kinda like how Jackets have it, only upgraded with an option to be on left or right side. I played champions for a bit and I liked those options quite a bit. It was surprising how often I used them. |
I heartily second this. I'd personally love to see the option of a midline (either visible or invisible) vertically bisecting the costume, allowing different colors on each side. What would truly rock would be to put that optional midline on a slider, letting the divison of colors be moved up to, say, 90% to the left or 90% to the right.
Such a slider could also be applied to the chest detail, allowing for a player to position a chest detail atop the color scheme division line. Or not, if you like.
As I'm not a programmer and I'm just now learning the basics of 3dCG, I have no idea how feasible this would be.

I love the new pieces and the glowy tech but I'd love some new patterns as well PLUS I'd love to have existing patterns and chest symbols have an option to glow with the new tech as well.

There is a brief point in this story where one of the kidnapped kids plays an instrument like this. Season 1, Episode 16: When the Bough Breaks.
I'm not a trekkie, but have been watching TNG since they put it back on instant queue on Netflix. I'm on season 2, which is why this was fresh in my memory.
