Yay for gunslinger! But er...Steampunk is the same price as before, and German Shepard came out two weeks ago.

Am I right to assume that female characters who use the Gunslinger costume pieces, and log out on a street corner, get a new day job badge?

If not, maybe these costume pieces are not QUITE communicating as intended.

Gunslinger costume parts look interesting, I'll probably pick those up.

I'm glad to see Dual Pistols on sale for the Preems. That was a smart decision to make when releasing the Gunslinger costume set.

Male Gunslinger/Female Bordello Employee costume set? Thanks!

My feelings exactly. I was hoping for more Tallulah Black and less Mollie Johnson.

Can the gunslinger male jacket be used with robot arms ?

LOVE these. Even the bad girl pieces. VERY comic book.

Ok, theres a terrible problem with the 'Gunslinger' Preset for females- its missing the belt, which leaves the modle just standing there in her panties.

Also, again, its really terrible that I have to hunt through the costume creator just to figure out what pieces are included in thiese sets. I can almost understand not having a specific screenshot for each item, but not even giving a list of whats included is unforgivable. (and its not like we havent told you this before, either)

Did they leave the pre-tinting in? seriously?

... hmm... nice costume set.... too bad all my toons who can use it have scorpion shield and i cannot edit their costumes in the tailor....

I like the outfits,but the bodies just don't fit it. Too heroic and not rugged old west feel to them.

Stop this pretinting ****. Get someone who knows how to work with textures and tell them to work on it while they sip coffee. It's not a day-long project.

The male gunslinger belt looks weird just floating ontop of the coat :/ wish theyed make more parts for monsterous legs :| I'd love that

I cannot believe that after many, many pages of player complaints regarding this costume set, including the pre-tinting, for sure, the lack of belt with holsters, too, but especially the questionable nature of the female costume pieces, that literally none of players' concerns were addressed. The Devs like to say they are listening to us, but it is becoming more and more apparent that they are not.
Those female costume pieces do not embody gunslinger. They suggest saloon girl, at best, old west prostitute at worst. It's shameful.
For a set that had so much potential ... well, I find it sad.
IMHO, of course.

Think I'm gonna pass on this one..

Passing.

If I wanted a ******, I'd ask for a ****** costume set. What's next, the "Environmental catastrophe" set with the males/huge in full environmental costumes and the females in a bikini? Maybe "Space suit" with the males/huge in full astronaut regalia and the females in a shiny silver bikini? (Oh, wait, maybe we'll get a "space corset.")

Of course, they basically admitted these get done so far out that no feedback in beta really leads to any changes.

F$%*&ng sold.

Though I do hope I can use those chaps et. al. on the female model.

Pretty much no interest in the gun slinger costumer pack or whatever it is. My fave part of the game is the costume creation. The theme of this pack didn't interest me but for $5 I figured I would look at it. After seeing how you can't color is as much as I would like and some tint issues...no thanks.

The pre-tint thing has rendered the Ascension stuff all but useless on many toons (for me). Also the CoT set...you can't match all pieces...the kilt is a different tint than the chest and legs stuff. Also the Halloween pack....the fish/mer boots and gloves are completely useless for me due to their different tint. They don't work on the few toons I have that could use them.

I really hope this issue is resolved in the near future. It seems I am starting to say no more and more to these pieces. Sad but true.
