At current it seems like this system will either leave a lot of options out for a lot of hulls even within lore lines or just introduce a number of skins exponentially greater than the number of ships if not both. The reaction of the community to this is going to stimulate a lot of conversation. I won't be the one making the choices about where to go with the feature from here, though. My job is to enable whatever's needed. :) At the least it would be nice to purchase skins by corporation rather than for each individual hull. So rather than a Nugh Rokh skin you simply get the Nugh license that can then be applied to all T1 Caldari ships. T2 ships may require more individual licenses as they are already specialised to a single corporation, so getting the rights to change their colour would be understandably more difficult. |

I look forward to the threadnaught following that announcement. Mr Epeen  What's bad is how many of us would go 'Take our money goddamit' for a universal 'Any skin, any ship' license..... To never ever have to worry again....

On further thought and possibly changing my mind from what I said earlier. Skins for racial lines. As mentioned by another poster.... 'X skin for X Race.' With possible Cap & Subcap splits. So Gallente Quafe/Khanid Amarr etc.
I'd be fine with a restriction based on QA also as long as it was a clear note that 'Skin not yet finished QA process, preview in fitting window only' So that right now I might only have 3 or 4 ships it works on but over time that unlocks further.
At that point the current prices of $20ish probably work pretty well.
However I would not be afraid of releasing temporary skins in game. If I can pay cash/Aur for the permanent skins or LP/Isk in game for temporary skins, that's even more ideal as it allows people to get it any way they want, but ensures that the in game sources will never end up too devalued.
Also Kill Mails need to show the skinned ship, and list it as an 'object' so Kill Mails still show off blingy skins.
But yea. TLDR 1 license = entire racial line. Temporary skins in game that match permanent aur skins are fine. Kill mails must show skins. |
