Odd Costume Designs

[steriaca]

Well, i was pondering on odd costume designs.

Would it be possable to create The Damsel's costume, or when I have a Computer of my own AND Champions Online, I would have to do something like a stopgap messer?

Basicly, the costume looks like this...an oldfashion white dress, with puffed sleaves and a skirt which reaches to just above the anckles, pancake makeup, and a wig full of ringlet curls. Oh, and a combat parasol.

Oh, and anyone else hopeing to be able to create odd costume designs.

And I don't mean the nacked speedster named "The Streek" eather.

He'd probably be better than the briefs-clad German CoH hero my friend created, Wunderpants!

I'm hoping that things like billowing cloaks with absurd collars (á la Doctor Strange and the Vision will be a possibility. The CoH designer is nice, but far too many of the options don't look either heroic or "comic-booky" to my old eyes.

[Enforcer84]

yeah, It'd be nice if they let us start out with capes too.

[Haerandir]

I suspect they will. A big part of the reason CoH didn't start with capes was just the time crunch, I believe. I vaguely recall that they actually had made a start on programming them, and just ran out of time before the launch date. So they decided to just leave 'em out instead of trying to launch the game with the most important costume piece looking like crap. It's been a few years, though, and my memory ain't what it used to be...

That made me laugh.

[Pattern Ghost]

Yeah, I remember the capes being put in later because they weren't perfect for launch. They didn't want shoddy-looking capes. And as far as it goes, I think they have the best capes of any game I've played, hands down.

So, hoping they have capes at launch.

As for the other options, seems like they're going to have a much larger selection for Champions Online. One of the characters played by the Game Informer people had a machine gun pop out of a port on its shoulder, which is pretty cool.

Forget capes. Give me a hoop dress and puffie shoulders.

Ah, the joys of RPing a charater who's costume of choice is a late 19th centery Southern Bell dress with heavy pancake makeup on her face.

[Log-Man]

I want stilts.

In CoH, my latest is a mohawk sporting female alien with orange skin. Not sure what you mean by odd though

City of X, allowed the puff sleeves only with shirts. I am hoping too for much more flexibility. I would like to create costumes from Magic Girls, School Girls to something like Witch Hunter Robin.

[BobGreenwade]

Trenchcoat and wide-brimmed fedora for me.

Or Wings and the ability to fly.

[Blue]

They've specifically said that flexibility on movement powers is in the works. So I imagine they're saying the SFX for your flight will be your option--so Wings, Hoverchair, lotus-position, Superman "one arm raised", jet assisted take off, etc, would seem to be the kind of things I'd picture.

The cool thing about this project is that now that they've made a "standard" for a superheroic game and then sold it, they have to try and beat it

[James Gillen]

I want something like my current avatar.

[Kaeto]

Wonder if they will have custom insignia?
