Character Gender by Class
« on: November 10, 2014, 09:23:49 pm »
One of my favorite things about Guns of Icarus Online is the Aesthetics. The game is simply beautiful. Combat is graceful. The world is sublime.

The character cosmetics, albeit limited, enthralls me.

My favorite Pilot dress happens to be War Room (male), my favorite Engineer dress happens to be The Tinkerer (male), and my favorite Gunner dress happens to be Lost Soldier (female).
It's quite a hassle switching my gender every time I switch to gunner. I'd like cosmetic gender to be locked to each class.

I might be asking Muse too much, and I don't want to increase their workload with a irrelevant request. So I want you guy's opinion.

Do you guys sympathize with my annoyance? Do you guys think this is big enough of an issue to request a change?

Thank you for reading.  :)

I definitely would have looked into it if I was still there. I totally want that.

Good idea. Lets get hair color for each class as well.

I don't have much of an opinion about the gender thing seeing as I play with all female characters but I do agree with Spud and the other thing I would like to see is that all the outfits (within each gender) would be exchangeable between the classes.

+1 it'd be great if all options could be saved per class.  I've wanted the hair color one for quite a while, though I'd prefer dyeable hair, and that'd solve it for me.

I definitely would have looked into it if I was still there. I totally want that.

Quesooooooooo go back to work for them!  ;)

Take it a step further, I want the cosmetic loadout to be locked to the A B C presets too!

I would much rather have cosmetic presets than tool presets.

oooooh yes.  I have at least eight outfits between the three classes now that I'm rotating, and that's not including headgear swapping around - that's just base costume.  would love presets.

EDIT: and with steam workshop around the corner, I'll have more options...I'm gonna need more presets XD

I'll email muse about this.

Seems like it's a popular idea.
