Costumes

[Amalah]

Well on that score I don't know what the truth is. I'm not a huge expert on anything technical and some players are saying one thing and the rest say another. I will just trust that SE knows what the truth is, and that they will know what to do.

If there are not any limitations I hope that they will add some of the wonderful ideas I have seen posted around this forum.

If there are limitations then deep down I hope they will be shed so this game can progress. I've seen that chart floating around which shows only a small percentage still use the PS2. Should this game be allowed to stagnate forever to support a platform most people have left behind? Or should it be allowed to reach it's full potential?

If it is able to grow, if they release fresh new content and improve upon what is there it might have more chance of grabbing new players and shouting "Look at me I'm still here!" I'm not speaking for my idea when I say that of course, after all it's a small idea which wouldn't really have any impact on gameplay. But I am speaking for some of the other ideas that have been posted, some of them are really fabulous.

This game doesn't have to be forgotten by future MMO fans.

Nah that's just a fan site poll not an official one. It uses percentage based results meaning only fifty could have answered it and you'd never know.

They can't add any new items as long as the PS2 is there.

Sorry Amalah. lol

no items need to be added, the second equip screen would use the same items you use now as armor, the only difference is the game would be told to display items in equip menu 2 first and over items in equip menu 1, but then when it comes to anything battle related the game would be told to use all items from equip menu 1

I would definitely love a feature like this. But I don't think it should be restricted to gear you could wear etc. That would take 80% of the fun out of being able to wear a costume.

well it would not be ;p they could add new gear that has no DEF or stats, and it would be purely visual.

Hmm... I guess I'd use such a function if there were one, then again, seeing the actual equipment on a person is one of the things I like about the game. The idea of seeing a nice set of armor or something and then realizing they're -really- wearing the dime-a-dozen DD body piece of choice for the era is kind of disappointing for some reason.

Something to keep people from changing appearence and losing my target as Whm would be awesome though.

Looking at the last part of the poll, which is a multiple choice question around 500 people answered. Which is not a bad cross section of the community.

You're right though, an official poll would definately hold more weight. There has been a fair amount of noise about this issue, so I'm sure SE would find it in their best interest to investigate the matter.

After all it would cost them nothing to hold a poll, and could easily result in the games popularity increasing amongst players who have thought the game too dated.

But I guess this is off topic, it's time to go back to discussing ideas we would love to see added to the game.

to my knowledge, DAT swapping is not against the Terms of Service. because of that, i swapped out my pink Aurore set on my Tarutaru so that he looks like he's charging into battle as a Legend of Zelda cosplayer :-P

[Varchesis]

KingofGeeks, where can I make that sig?

Just macro in your run-around set, and hit another macro when you actually attack something.

It means you can still have your movement speed gear etc, and run around in your "pretty" clothes.

I don't wear what I fight in when running around Jeuno or Sandy.

But hey, not flaming your idea.
