My wife has hair so long, it covers her entire back; I often joke that she’s made up of 50% hair. This joke comes pretty close to the truth when it comes to character customization though.
It’s something players see more often than the face considering 3rd person combat, if not wearing a helmet, except antlers and ear rings.
Which brings me to my next request: Hide helmet feature pleeeez. Such a fundamental feature shall not make “Fashionist” mod mandatory.
While it is realistic, not making armor vanish, and maaan…Funcom did a crazy good job making armor look good on girls, we don’t see Conan running around vanquishing foes wearing a helmet now, do we?
In the stories we do. Conan is in fact famous for his horned helm. It looks a lot like the standard heavy helmet (what was prior to current Testlive the steel helmet). If you want to be a tough conqueror who does not wear a helmet, just don’t wear a helmet. That way you can show your real toughness winning at a disadvantage.
On a similar note I’d really like to see some better face options for some of the races. For example only one Khitan face looks at all appropriate, while all the other options are just a bunch of Whitey McWhitefaces that no one would ever believe as coming from a fantasy China counterpart.
More faces, and I would like to see a version of the long hair half bald male not being “bald”… the only real long hair its the Ragnar style. More long hairs would be lovely.
Oh I remember the vote on these hairstyles. After launch perhaps having the styles that didn’t make the cut could make it in game Quite content with the sliders for the faces, however more face varieties would be good to work with. Sliders to change some body proportions would be nice, however can live without that if it causes too many headaches.
On the server i play, there’s really only 2 hairstyles that players use for the females. The rest are only so-so at best. I really want the “Short and Sweet” style from an earlier post.
So… This is a very old topic, but I have seen some more suggestion threads referencing this recently. This is the kind of content that many of us would like to see (along with bug fixes).
We need more facial presets
Possibly more sliders for belly fat
More hair styles
These should be minor projects for the art department and not at all difficult to make. I’ve done some of these on my own in Maya and free 3d modeling apps found through the internet. This is something people have asked for from the beginning of EA…
