  • Character Customization
  •  

    In Ace of Spades I have often found that having all the player look the same causes many problems. First of all, its boring. I would like to have my own identity, and for everyone else to have their own identity, so that players can interact with each other easier. Second, its frustrating. If I keep getting killed by the same camper I want revenge. But often times I can't find him. I have no way of telling who's who unless I kill him. Thirdly, its unfair. The Blues cannot camouflage. I can see them coming a mile away. They have a serious disadvantage. I have found that its usually the Blues that sit in tunnels and dig into the land, and I think this may be why. So I was thinking we should have the option to customize our character outside of the servers.

    Head: Brodie Helmet, Stahlhelm Helmet, Bandanna, Hair

    Face:Gas mask, Sunglasses, Eyebrows, Eyes, Facial Hair,

    Body: Backpack, Cartridge belt, canteen, First Aid Kit, Gas mask, E- Tool, Belt Ammo (wrapped around neck), Radio

    I think the creator might have to give the soldiers more pixels but I ultimately think it would be a cool feature. Let me know what you think.

    I don't really see the need.
    And the camouflage thing is a load of crumbs. The main thing that gives people away is their face, not their uniform. Both look equally grey in the fog, both equally dark in caves at a distance and both equally bright on the surface.
    If you really think neon green camouflages well against a earthy green you may have a problem with your sight.

    Cerebulon is right.

    And on top of that, this is a game that evokes a WW1-like ambiance, with dozens of near-identical grunts locked in trench warfare. As far as context goes, having a uniform standard for the player-character makes sense.

    OMG WE CAN HAVE LIKE FUNNY HATS LIKE TF2 LOL XD

    I agree with the "Standard Issue Equipment" statement above. The only thing we really need for more individuality is if people would STOP BEING DEUCE. Just pick a name.

    It would be neat if each team had non-customizable, but slightly unique looks.

    IE the greens have brodie helmets while the blues have stahlhelms. Backpacks would be neat just because it'd help the generic soldier look.

    I'd personally like to see gasmasks but I see how that could be a problem.

    At least faces should be different.

    But otherwise I agree. There should be customisation to some point, but not like in Minecraft.

    I think admin on server creation should be able to chose the colours for his team.

    Be it red, pink, yellow, green, blue.

    Why? Your team members names show up upon mouse over. That's all you need.

    I agree. It would make the game more enjoyable, because you wouldn't be locked with only two colors.
