Hello, I am curiuos as to how much and what type of customisation will be available and down to what detail? Reading a lot of the stuff prior to these forums opening you are basing several elements off the game Space Marine, which having played the game i think is a fantastic idea, however there were few chapter specific options available apart from the fixed DLC skins. This applies for all races but rather than swamp with detail i'll concentrate on Space Marines, will there be options to win/buy chapter specific items? Furs and totems for Space Wolves, braided rope and cloaks for ultramarines, robes for dark angels and so on. Also will we be able to place then where we want on the armour or will it be a fixed slot upgrade? I hope it's the first as this allows a greater level of customisation. Anyway thanks for doing the game and looking forward to seeing some of your artwork/designs soon.
There isn't much 100 % clear information yet, this very, very early on. However, last night there was a Q/A session and we got some answers on questions about what to expect or the current ideas of the Devs! Here's two examples: Q) Are there any plans for player housing? You had mentioned calling in vehicles from orbit, possibly having some form of guild ships that carried your specific vehicles with your upgrades and clan markings and whatnot, that also had guild housing on it? - A) Steven: Absolutely! Each individual will have small quarters in a ship orbiting the planet. Squads (groups of friends in real life) will have a small Hall in a ship, and Strike Forces (our version of guilds) will have an entire Strike Force Cruiser to themselves. These will be somewhat customizable as well. Q) How much can we customize, can we put skulls on your characters and trophies. A) Brent: Some of this will be tied to your stats and build, but we'll have cosmetic customization as well. Again, it's that trade off between variety and performance, so we need to test. You can read more about it here at a compilation thread which another forum user put together for us. http://forum.eternalcrusade.com/threads/mmorpg-com-dev-q-a.1163/
it would only make sense for the customization for each faction and whoever they worship to look the way in the lore but with more customization for them specifically and what they would theyd look like. LET KHORNE BLESS US WITH UNHOLY ARMOR!
I'm just hoping they don't go too overboard with customization to the point where Marines start looking like Christmas trees. I'm just afraid everyone is eventually going to look like a veteran marine, with cloaks, aquilas, ropes, skulls, emblems, ribbons, etc. plastered all over their armor. I hope they only allow a certain amount of custom 'items', within reason. I want to be immersed in this game. So, at least in my opinion, I'd like it to stay as lore friendly as they can reasonably make it.
Yes this is true but im sure they are gonnah have a leveling system for the gear and customization I doubt a noob is gonnah look like a chaos warlord
i just want my space wolve terminator with is wolf pelt and his long beard. also some tokens of slayed enemys. thats all i want
If you can't blind the enemies of the Emperor with all the swag you're wearing, if your trophies and iron halos, and chains, and cloaks, and seals can't make his machine crash from the effort to render, then why fight at all? Just kidding. Hope they don't have those horrendous "just a skull" SM chest plates from DoW2
