So I have been thinking. WHY is our armor so F***ing shiny. In the Army, shiny things were called "bullet magnets."
I don't get this CCP. The shiny stuff may be all good if you are on the parade field, but in the thick of it, IT IS NO GOOD.
Can we have some alternate, BPO styled, paint schemes for our dropsuits (i.e., buy it once for like 1500-2500 ISK/ 15-20 AUR)? Or at the very least make the basic colors in a matte finish. I get it with some of the AUR fits that people may want the bling factor in there, but all of the time, NO THANKS.
Personally I would love to see it as an option on the fitting menu where you were able to assign purchased (having them in both ISK and AUR versions would be the ONLY way to go) paint schemes to particular fittings, and that you would be able to change them. You do have the single box at the top of the fitting screen, why not use it to have a paint scheme swath that can be changed out or edited. Maybe even this could be used to instigate some player made camo styles in a contest of sorts.
Now, in EVE, I get why this isn't an issue, and why no one has thought of it since camouflage is not a necessity. But on the ground, camp is a must. Ask anyone who has served time n the field. It is a game changer and a life saver. Hell I would like it too, just for the fact that corps could have assigned colors and schemes, that way when you see the glow of the suits, you know who you are fighting in faction battles and the such.
Here is to hoping some kind of CAMO in future builds. |

WOW, it took a sarcastic comment to get the discussion going. Sweet! I'll keep that in mind for next time.
As for the importance, or potentiality of it, I wonder when Ewar is implemented that it will become an item.
@ Patches : Just because that was the way in previous games, doesn't mean that is the way it should be. As for calling me CRAZY to think such a thing, well that should be the least of your worries. I think that there should be some aesthetic options available on both currency fronts, what is the problem with that??? |
