120091-since-we-are-getting-a-lot-of-new-cool-costumes-in-drop-4-please-give-us-more-costume-pages

== Content ==
			
Carbine, while im totally excited for new costumes. I have 8 already and my entire bank is full of Costume items.
New cool costumes coming from the vendors and new armors and stuff in the future.
 
6 pages is no where near enough.
 
I could use 20+ pages, tbh.
 
We need more costume pages.
 
You have a fantastic system right now, I ask for something to make it even better. More preset costume pages so we can actually use all the cool costume items.	
----
			Yup, been asking for this for a while. Six was too few before drop 4, and it will definitely be too few after drop 4!	
----
			Oh pretty please!!

Yes please :) !
 
Dear Santa, we've been nice, we swear, please make it happen !

			More important than costumes themselves, is the new system coming. According to mr Donatelli it will be a system that unlocks skins for armor & weapons, so we can empty our bags / bank from all the costume items! Cant wait for this!!!

Hopefully, once that system (which I'm guessing will be a copy from Guild Wars 2 system*) is implemented, they'll have plenty of reasons to increase the number. I'm hoping for around 20ish slots.
Now, let me put my cynical hat on...there we go...I think a more realistic number for them is to add either 2 or 4 extra slots. Why so few? Because arbitrary restrictions! That's why. Plus, they'll make the extra slots cost a ridicolous ammount of renown, glory, or elder gems to unlock. Mostly because I feel Carbine has no idea on how to price stuff.
 
On the other hand: that revamped custome system sounds extremely good. Oops! Looks like my cynical hat fell off. I'm happy again!
 
*And for the MMO reinventers: no, copying systems that are great in other game is no way bad. Stop saying that. It just makes you look silly!

Talk about copy paste from Guild Wars 2.

You know, NCSoft gets a lot of bad press. I don't care about the reasons, whether they're true or not.
 
Maybe... Maybe they also do positive things, such as sending an email from one of their suit to a suit at Carbine saying something along the lines of "hey, there is this system in GW2, why don't you copy it, here's the email of the dev responsible of it so you get in touch with him/her". I wouldn't be surprised there is a position at NCSoft, like some guy who has this task to coordinate teams and systems over their several MMOs.

And that's bad...why?
Makes no sense to re-invent the wheel when a sister company has a working system, then you take over that system.
----
			I would really love more slots, I worked hard to get the full R12 set and Aggregor set and a few others and I'm already out of slots. Sadly I remember a live stream with one of the guy who deals with this and him saying they wont be adding more. Hopefully this has changed since then...

I thought he was going to copy Diablo 3.  All the weapons and armor you get, the skins get saved and you can make anything look like anything you ever owned.
 
I never played Guild Wars, is that the same system?

			I'm not sure if they plan to get rid of the NPC requirement or not, they combined the costumes & dyes NPC with appearance/body modifying as well. I get the feeling they're phasing the costume/dye system out from NPCs eventually.

3. Dissociate costuming from the NPC, as "inventory abuse" will no longer be an issue. At the very least, dissociate the visibility of armor pieces from the NPC.

Guild Wars 2 did it the way they did (reskinning models you are wearing, rather than having real costume tabs like we do) because they have a cash shop and they know that the number 1 thing that sells in it are cosmetic related items. So of course they made it require an item from the cash shop that is consumed.
 
Wildstar, on the other hand, has no need for that. There's no cash shop to milk and we already have the fundamentals of making the whole thing work without an NPC or any other currency more than gold (as evidenced on how it was back in those Betas that didn't need an NPC). So yeah, they should keep the costume pages as they are. Just improve upon it by making us select the skins rather than 'equipping' a piece of gear.

			If the PTR is any indication, character aesthetic recustomization is going to cost only in-game gold, so that's pretty okay. I saw the prices and they were hilariously high, though. I hope Carbine doesn't decide to up costume prices to 'compensate' for the fact that we won't have to waste inventory space anymore.

I will be really god damned upset if they remove preset costumes.
 
That is literally one of the best ideas they've come up with and it allows people to swap costumes in a flash and have a lot of fun creating and designing a lot of fashion ideas and appearances that they can collect mix up and swap on the fly.
 
DO NOT FOR THE LOVE OF GOD REMOVE PRESET COSTUMES, CARBINE.
It is literally one of the best damn things ever made in character fashion and vanity apperanece, EVER.
 
Its absolutely fantastic to be able to click a few buttons and walla different costume!
DO NOT CHANGE THIS, IT IS AMAZINGLY AWESOME AND I WILL BE DAMNED IF YOU RUIN IT.

You're getting really upset over nothing, so calm down a touch. There's absolutely no indication Carbine would do this.
----

At the same time, its preemptive intent, and positive feedback at the sametime.
If good ideas aren't praised they may seem under appreciated.
 
So here's a bit of a positive version
 
Premade costumes are a fantastic idea and I really absolutely love them and they're fantastic.
Probably one of the best character vanity ideas since dyes became common place.

There are also gear sets and weapons we wish to keep as trophies, not necessarily wear them as costumes. I just realized about the manequin limitation of... one ?
 
So is it a technical limitation of some sort or is it the same guy that invented the proto-pervs that is preventing us to have more manequins else he/she'd whine his bag space economy is ruined ?

The reason to not allow us more than one mannequin was stated to be a data storage issue. I believe Carbine uses kangaroos or something.
 
Also, in some other thread about the matter a dev said they were working on a revamping of the costume system, were looks are 'unlocked' and you can switch between those looks instead of needing to equip an item. That will probably allow them to add a crapton of costume slots, since they won't have to store everything about the slotted item. Or that's my uneducated guess.

Bumping this.
 
I am up to 10 total custom costumes, not including my soldier, highway man, Strain, Exile arkship outfits, Now that there's all these new costumes.
We are desperately in need of more preset costume pages.
 
That's all you need to right now do Carbine is just give us a few more pages and let us get 10 or even 20 pages. Make them Renown, make them Elder Gems, make some prestiege, it doens't really matter we just need to get more pages.
Make them free for all I care.
And this is not just about bankspace either, this is about having all the options we want as part of a game that has fantastic fashion.
Not taking up Bankspace isn't as big of an issue as not being able to use whichever costume you want where ever you go.
I have to leave 4 costumes behind, and pick 6. I want everyone to be able to take all their costumes wherever they go.
 
6 pages is NOT enough, period.

			+1 Need more costume slots <3 Alot of fashion pressure on Luminai, gotta stay fabulous.
