- When you go through the character creator, is there anything that you find confusing or unclear and could be improved?
- Did you all notice the "tucking" options, that you can randomize the whole character (and each group), and toggle the clothes off?
- Now we have only facial tattoos... would body tattoos be something you would be interested in (and then how interested), even though you cannot see them in the portrait?
- A few people have asked for normal glasses... would that be something you would be interested in?
- Did anyone have problems with the body modifications, and if so, what did you have problems with?
- Are there any small usability issues that bothering you in the character creator?
- Do you think players in general would be in favor of allowing bloodline changes, or are there just a few souls that are unhappy with their heritage?
- Any more suggestions? (other than "hey, we want more racial clothing" and "hey, we want no clothing restrictions").
(I've been looking at the character creator for so long that it makes perfect sense to me  , but it would be great to get some input from you guys... and these are just questions, not promises that everything you suggest will be done  )
- The photo thingy, or rather the preview. It needs two things, first of all anti-aliasing on the preview and second more preview sizes. ( http://piclair.com/data/tjmxx.jpg ). Choosing hair-colors for some of the hairstyles is wonky since only one of the two color palettes are used (some, not all). Either make both matter or remove the useless one.
- Yes. Tucking options took a while and could be a few pixels larger but it does not matter at all so...
- No reason until you do something useful with the full body avatars. Mostly concerned what can actually be seen in chat windows etc.
- Does not make sense, if we can put in brain implants and do genetic manipulation I'm fairly sure that bad eyesight has been taken care of many many years ago. Please, don't add. Wouldn't stand seeing everyone wearing hipster glasses, the pilot sunglasses are bad enough since they are very un-eve.
- Could use a better selection system tbh, having 100 piercings (or how many we have) in that small selection window is annoying. Same with the hairstyles but to a lesser extent.
- The panel selection thingy is a bit inconsistent at times and difficult to "manouver" with it scrolling around oddly at times. Don't know how to describte it really...
- God no. Why? The only ones I've seen whine about bloodline change are the vherikor (or whatever they are called) and perhearps they could use some tuning but no reason to do blood line changes. Small vocal minority...
- More hairstyles and stuff we used to have in the old one. And no I'm not just saying that for hurfdurf, I think it could be exactly what CC needs to be really good instead of just "newer but worse than the old one". Most female hairstyles are meh and only a handfull are even remotely good looking.
Just my .02Gé¼ and finally, the models themselfs look weak and are often far away from the vision I and many others have of what eve design and looks should be. Reading in an interview that they are the exact models used in WoD with "some features disabled" was kinda sad. I love EVEs original art direction and now it's kinda plastic tbh. |
