    Default Character customization

    What do you think about adding more character customization for NC? Would it be beneficial to dedicate hours for it (in the far future, if ever)? Do you want to have fights that look like fashion show?
    I just want to hear your opinions.

    More character customisation would be great though I can certainly understand why it's not high on the list. I dislike themed costumes based around real life events so a big no to Santa outfits etc. While having it's silly moments, NC has always had a more mature sense of humour imo. Running around in a bunny costume just doesn't fit with the aesthetics or atmosphere of the game (even if it's a Tiger Bunneh).

    Since they have such a small team right now I'd rather they not work on player customization, but instead fix things like cop bots facing walls, randomly getting stuck in sync, many rare weapons being terrible, etc.

    Speaking of character customization, the face "model" part of character customization does absolutely nothing and should be removed.

    Having said all of that, I do miss the NC1 models/skins. The PE sunglasses, the tank white shirt with suspenders, the almost mutated looking monk skins, etc. There was word at one point of adding accessories (like sunglasses and cigarettes) to NC2, but that never happened.

    Indeed.

    It's a small team which means that each area is worked on by one or two people.
    As the work required for each area is quite specialised, having someone working on one area doesn't impact progress in other areas.
    I know nothing about lighting or models, but possibly aside from Z (who has his hands full with other stuff), no-one knows other areas of the game like I do.
    Making the team members responsible for GFX drop their work to help with my side might not help the game, assigning me to the GFX team would be pointless in the extreme.

    Signs that the team is working on something that you don't feel is important, doesn't mean work on things you do do feel are important are being slowed.

    Alright then, I take back what I said! More customization would be coool! Although, covering yourself up with PA is kinda a dower; maybe we could toggle PA visibility? Just an idea. Thanks for the reponses on development, it gives me confidence. I'm back in game everyday and just capped my dex for the first time on this server, things are getting exciting!

    Being able to customise PA's would be cool, such as colour and the ability to make the helm graphic disappear to reveal the characters face. A black or chrome looking tank pa could potentially look cool, or a spec ops looking spy pa - black with green eyes.

    I think character customisation is the least of this game's worries.

    Everything common, like Photoshop, Max, Blender, Quixel, Substance, XNormal. The Original assets are from times of Max6 and 7 and also the game tools build up on them, so thats rather a challenge itself.
