Increase the Amount of Glamour Plates and Glamour Dresser Slots

People just don't realize how much ressources they would need to fix that, and just throwing devs at it won't help much. And it wouldn't be resolved even in one expansion's timeline.

We as the players / consumers are not responsible for their problems to make things happen, we have 2025, everything is technically possible.

They either find a solution and improve the game or they will lose more and more players over time.

If the coding is really such a mess, they should abandon this game and make a new MMO with a better engine and more future proof systems.

but we cant have more plates the code wont let us. The code is here it looks scary its coming this way.

Thank god someone talking about spaghetti code with an ounce of sense, thank you.

I get that people are tired of hearing about spaghetti code, but complaining about water being wet for years will not suddenly make water not wet.

Should SE try and do it anyway ? Probably yeah, they're clearly not putting enough funds into the game as is. But that's a long term trial, and even if they come up with a good enough fix to the code, they would then have to go over the reste of the whole game to make sure it doesn't break at any moment.

This stuff is clearly counterintuitive for an average player, but server stuff is just dark magic. Remember that back in Heavensward, a single error made the whole data center crash because players were fishing at a specific spot in the Hinterlands.

Anyone with an "onze" of technical knowledge know it's BS.

A checklist of items the player has or has not to enable the glamour to work could be as small as 1 single bit (1 or 0) to mark the item as owned or not. When you receive an item, the server could just mark it with an 1. (that's basically what wow does with transmog). The code excuse is just that, an excuse. You don't need to store any personal values on an item the server just need to know if you are allowed or not allowed to use its appearance.

I can't argue that we don't need more glam dresser space, and I'll use it if they give it to us, but I do think simply expanding the dresser is a band-aid on the problem. There has to be a better way to register and store items for glam. Even if it consumes the item, I don't care about that.

[Reimmi]

I'd rather they focus on removing the glam dresser and giving us a collection tab already

And no, don't blame the code. They're in charge of the 2nd biggest mmo we should expect more from it.

I don't particularly care about having more glamour space, but 20 plates is way too small. You can have like 100 saved armor sets, glam plates should be the same.

At the very least, there should be one glamour plate for each job, including crafting and gathering.
