Personalised Free Company Emblems... ew

[ellohwell]

You guys must really like ugly things that impinge upon the artistic integrity of the game.

And yes this thread is speculation, but be that as it may, it is also just a suggestion of how not to implement something in the worst possible way.

What's so bad about bringing attention to something that could possibly end up being a negative feature. Having linkshell-like icons on gear just ends up ruining ALL gear.

SE put a lot of effort into maintaining a certain quality of gear, if they implement Free Company emblems in such a way as to ruin all that effort they put into the gear, then they should reconsider implementing Free Company Emblems in that specific way, and consider implementing them in a different way.

Honestly.

Not reading this whole thread...

But a solution? Toggle on/off switch! More menu buttons to press ftmfw!

I find a jump feature and optimal ranking system for gear to impinge upon the integrity of the game.

Honestly. You're talking nonsense.

Perhaps you should make a thread about phantoms and fears.

Just what are the dangers of highlanders clad in star spangled subligar in your "artistic integrity"?

Or the Gladiator clad in pink? Or the Roegadyn in a swimsuit? It must be hard to even log in with such terrors lying in wait before you.

Okay, so I dont want to have to projectile vomit every time I walk down Uldah, so if SE are serious about implementing customised emblems to place on armour and weapons, I hope they dont make fashion victims of us all.

There are ways to implement this tastefully (like restricting the emblems to metal buckle-like embelishments), but if the Linkshell icons are anything to go by, I'm not looking forward to this!

Im usually all for freedom, but just please dont make it an eyesore.

I personally want to it be flashy but not over the top. I want to be able to clearly see what player company you belong to by looking at what you are wearing. Though the one aspect of it that I do hope is over the top is the customization of the crest or emblem. I want two to three times more options than what we have when making a LS emblem and more variety in color. A Red/Blue/Yellow slider would be optimal imho. That is one thing from FFXI I think that should make its way over here. I loved seeing so many LS with a different color pearl etc, hardly ever was there 2 that was the exact same color.

Lol you are too lazy to make up your own arguments so you bring in some irrelevant comment about some irrelevant argument which isnt even tangentially related to this topic. lol.

I think its kind of ironic you say im the troll when clearly you have become (and always were) the very thing you hate most; a troll with nothing to add to discussion besides some feeble quips that are supposed to be relevant.

I think it should just be a metal buckle like thing and you can create an elaborate crest and then pick between metal types, from gold down to bronze and all inbetween.

This way we dont have to look at lime green symbols on everyones gear. gross.

Or hopefully give me a toggle, at least, so I dont have to look at such heinous eyesores.

Anyone who would care to compare our post histories would come to a very different conclusion. Sorry kid, but you aren't on an high enough intellectual level to argue with me (or most people here.)

Maybe when you're older.

One who appeals to their self-inflated credentials and age to win an argument is merely someone who cannot do so on principle. Saying "im right, you're wrong, im old, you're young" just makes you look like a villian from a Roald Dahl story rather than someone who has a lot to offer in terms of discussion points, and clearly you didn't learn enough life-lessons as a child, nor any other lessons by the looks of things.

If you disagree that ugly things are ugly, do explain as to why.

I'm not hating on the game for not wanting Free Company Emblems, I am merely saying that SE should be careful that they don't implement them in a way which uglifies the rest of their game which they worked so hard to beautify.

If you like ugly things (which is apparently the indefensible position you have taken upon yourself to defend), then could you elaborate on the reasons why you like ugly things, because I'm mystified, to be honest.

I feel bad for ell, having to put up with the massive influx of worthless posts that pollute these forums. People don't just want to say yes or no to something that was proposed to be implemented into a game - no - they have to go off in non-credible, ignorantly idiotic rants about why it should or not. It's like watching C-SPAN for God's sake.
