I want to marry this costume pack and have its babies.

If the costume pack dropped at approximately the same time as a space zone that featured Monsters From The Id, I would be reduced to such drooling levels of fanboyism that I'd be unable to criticize anything done by Paragon Studios for at least a month.
Oh and I LOL'ed thoracic birthing. :-p
A sudden thought, if the jet packs will animation/have effects during flight, can they also have effects with Super Jump? Just got the Zero G Pack from a Kings Row mayhem and it's jump effect would be great for many characters, power-suited scientists who are too heavy to fly for example.
I am the Blaster, I have filled the role of Tank, Controller and Defender
Sometimes all at once.
Union EU player! Pip pip, tally ho, top hats and tea etc etc
Love it!
Q: How possible would it be to make all jetpacks in the game as costume pieces?
Ignoring anyone is a mistake. You might miss something viral to your cause.

I absolutely agree. Last I know of, Clockwork01 said they'd look into it, but I don't know what the results were on that and whether it'll have jump effects or not.|

(I know I'd love to have them... even just some way to buy/create the Zero G pack would be great)

The development team and this community deserved better than this from NC Soft. Best wishes on your search.

Please go back to the old technology for this. Not only are these just ugly, they're such a blindingly obvious contrast to the rest of the game. Don't be ashamed of the old style of faces. We love them! At least, I do. The new faces since Steampunk? Ugh. |
These new non-normal-mapped male faces look great. Don't apologize for not getting time for normal mapping! Normal mapping on clothes is OK, normal mapping on faces make them look like molded plastic. I don't have any animated, life-sized Barbie doll characters so they don't fit.

While I am entirely on the side of the fence that has not liked the normal-mapped faces thus far (although, I have not given the Imperial Dynasty one much of a looksee. I'll have to do that), and I agree that they have looked out of place and plasticy/shiny...
This does not mean that the artists won't figure out a way to do them better and make them work very well.
So, I may be against any faces that look like the Steampunk ones, but I'm not entirely against the process... I just hope that they either manage to make them fit into the game's looks better or back off of them if the artists determine that it's not going well.
I just don't feel comfortable blindly dismissing normal-mapping, since I don't honestly know that it can't be done right.

Well those "audio" auras could be interpreted visually - i.e. radio waves or signal emitters from antennas (or head, fists, torsos, eyes, etc.)
