Chaos Mark Aesthetic. Let us choose where it renders on character.

  1. Chaos Marks. @NoahWard @Oveur



    With the current placement of the Chaos Mark(right shoulder) we're suggesting we dont want to ever make any revenue off of Chaos players right shoulder because the Chaos Marks overwrite our chosen appearance item. Is that wise?

    Not only is it not wise it's a bit unfair and a bit deceptive. See when we roll a new Chaos character as a new player we buy up right shoulder appearance items off of the store. Then when we can afford our first Chaos Mark we find out AFTER buying shoulder appearance items that the Mark overwrites our right shoulder appearance.

    Its also hurting sales as much as the issue with Jump Packs. We're never going to make any revenue off of Jump Packs because Wargear Fuel items force the appearance of our Jump Pack instead of letting players decide. Not only does this take away the players choice of appearance items it also pretty much rules out the sales of any future Jump Pack designs.

    I'd propose we come up with an alternate location(s) for the Chaos Mark under the premise that the Mark must appear somewhere on our character.

    I'd propose that players should be able to choose one of four locations where the Mark shows.

    1. Top/center of the back pack or on one of the engines of the jump pack
    2. Right Shoulder
    3. Left Shoulder
    4. Center of Torso

    Allowing us to choose which location our Chaos Mark is located opens up all 4 locations for other appearance items for purchase off of the store. So we choose where we want the Mark then the other 3 locations are opened up for items we can purchase off of the store.

    Honestly I'd just like a toggle option to turn it off perhaps, that way my Word Bearer can be lore-accurate without also being super underpowered. It isn't like other players ever even look at that marks (as evidence by how many Sorcs try to heal my Khorne Berzerker) so it doesn't create a tactical disadvantage

    Chaos player icons for allies should have some sort of colored border if you are wearing a mark, then add OP's idea about moving + Viktor idea about not showing and we get a nice combo

    It only overwrites 4 out of the 7 options.

    Unfortunately the ones it does not overwrite are the mutated-looking ones

    Wish we would have the option to turn off god specific taunts as well.

    I'd rather they actually just had the god-specific taunts ADD to the subfaction-specific ones. I definitely want to run around yelling IRON WITHIN, IRON WITHOUT in the Slaanesh voice.

    Alpha Legion's Dragon head shoulder is also immune to the Mark change at least.

    Also in general here, it's not like knowing the enemies mark is that big of a deal I find.
    I don't really care if my enemy is a MoT, MoS etc I'm still just gonna shoot at them anyway, it's not crucial information imo.

    The only time it's handy is obviously when playing Sorc so you know who's a MoK, but tbh it only takes a split second to notice the large glowing Khorne emblem when trying so it's not like you're wasting a lot of time.

    Or as OP suggested we simply move the Mark to a different section of the body so it doesn't overwrite the customization we've paid for.

    Yo!! Devs!!!
    If you can manage to dislodge your mouths from the LSM's family jewels for a second.
    Could you just make cosmetic shoulder pads overwrite the mark like some already do so I can use my golden iron warrior skull and FINALLY get some symmetry on my character!!:CSMFamiliar:
