no, dear God no MLP stuff, Warhammer is supposed to be dark (aside from the Orks) MLP would just screw that up so.... so bad
Imagine it, the sun rising over a war torn field, the forces of chaos standing triumphant.. when suddenly on the horizon.. dozens of astartes stand shoulder to shoulder, the lively light blue of their armor in stark contrast to the bright pink of their shoulder pads. The ancient terran pegasi ornaments their crests and banners. FOR FRIENDSHIP! the captain yells AND HAPPINESS! they respond, and charge. Well i am going to go chug some bleach now.
Agreed on that, since Warhammer 40k is based on misery, anger, darkness, war, etc. It would simply be wrong both lore wise and gameplay wise to have MLP in game.
They really let the Wolves to have fangs and epic beards... btw we should start a new poll with "Should the devs ban that 2 fool who voted no on customization?"
There are many ways to get around that issue, most games only have detail at close range, and characters further way from you lack details, if you have ever taken an in game recording and played it back, move the camera away from you, you see that there is are a few detail radius's that are around your character that decline as you get further away.. Having customization option does not put too much pressure on GPU's, it's the level of detail you have around you that would matter... what I mean is, if you have 200 players next you that were fully customized, it would pull about the same GPU utilization as 200 who were not customized...
