PC Question about the upcoming outfit system

Hit that dislike button again!


I did, but only because I want to be accommodating; I agree with the post. Also:

I will add dye to my armor and clothes some times, but don't care too much. And they already have mods like the Paperboy Hat mod - why couldn't the outfits have mods which change their appearance? They could give them away in RNG loot boxes that you can buy for only $2.99 for a 3-pack!

 
Personally, I think they should just have dye slots in the equipment screen instead of on each piece of gear.Ā  It's a time saver that has zero impact on the game.Ā  Want a black helmet?Ā  Find black dye, put it next to the helmet slot and anything you wear on your head gets painted black.

Great, now this is stuck in my head:



 
Speaking of ingame attire... why isn't there chainmail armor like those shark suits?

Let me see a zambie scratch or bite me through this baby :)

Easy, since they can bite through steel.

Until you find some Unobtainium you will never be safe.

EDIT: Oops, didn't see theFlu already mentioned this. But at least I posted a solution.

The full set buffs seem to be planned as very strong.

I see very bad things upcoming.

Every single player you will see in this game out of their base will wear the same fight and loot set. Optional sometimes when you are forced to, a radiation suit. Never see a other clothestyle again.

Mining will need the minerset, crafting the crafterset and so on.

Why should i wear anything else than the fight and loot set out there? I think this is in theory allready worse than classic leather weak but fast, iron strong but slow system.

Forced changing outfits sounds very horrorfull for me. The complete concept they have shown sounds horrible at all, its a best in slot mechanic.

No more diversity, everyone has always any clothset on their body, sounds awfull.

Nobody is forcing you to change outfits. Ā If you want to min max your game playing, that is the choice you are making.

I love how people make the choice to min max gaming, how they make the choice to switch out outfits just to get a small bonus; then complain that they are being ā€œforcedā€ to do the thing they choose to.

 
I am not too excited about the set bonuses and as of what I have seen I do not like the looks of it.

I would prefer something simple, less armor, more crafting armor protects less and occasional random bonuses for found clothing pieces.

Make crafting clothes and armor easy & cheap to learn. Don’t bother with levels for armor or make better armor cost far more resources and time to craft. Also accept that the clothing is going to clip on the model. Happens in nearly every game.

Seems like too much time is being spent on a change few are excited about.

They haven't gotten to it yet so other than concept drawings very little time has been spent.

Maybe that is still "too much" though...? ;)

Speaking of too much time spent....I think all this conjecture and worry about something that Madmole has only given general conceptual information about is what there is too much of. Most people heard that 8 clothing slots are being reduced to 4 and stopped listening at that point as their blood pressure overwhelmed them.Ā  We really need to wait and see how it plays and since the feature won't be coming in A20 it may very well be a year out still-- if it ends up being implemented at all.

Worrying only makes you suffer twice.

Just going on it appears nobody likes the suggested change so why change it?

If you have a tool that works for a task better, why useĀ a tool that isn't the bestĀ for thatĀ taskĀ to do the task? I guess you could always keep nailing planks together using a rock instead of a hammer, but why?

Edit: You also need to take into consideration that most likely, as they do currently with magazines, any balancing that TFP does for the various perks will be based on having the full outfit, also very likely of the best quality possible, that benefits that perk including the full set bonuses. That in and of itselfĀ means that not using the gear if you have it will greatly hamper the player's capability in using those perks effectively.

How can you say nobody likes it?Ā  I haven't even formed an opinion since it is not implemented yet.
Read the comments about it

Hello Outfits. PleaseĀ let me introduce you to LBD.Ā 
Ā 

It’s their game and they design it to be what they want and not necessarily what popular opinion dictates.Ā 
Adding a LBD would be epic attire to wear during a horde night. LBD, football helmet and sneakers. Total runway fashion zombie killing attire.

oops can’t do that with what has been proposed regarding clothing & sets.

 
Edit: You also need to take into consideration that most likely [conjecture pulled from thin air], also very likely [more conjecture]. That in and of itselfĀ means that [conclusion drawn from conjecture].


Welp. I'm convinced that this thing that doesn't exist is horrible, based on this indisputable new information.

Completely unrelated: I wonder if doctors even need these any more?

Outfits in general isn't a bad idea.Ā  Set bonuses are coolĀ and many other games out there have implemented similar systems that are fun (i.e. Diablo 2).Ā  Too early to form a bad opinion on it.

The clothing system currently is not that very deep so I think its nice they want to improve it.Ā  *shrugs*

And how exactly are they basing the Stun Baton's balance again? Oh ya, with both the charge rate and repulsor magazines having been found. I'm used to dismissive @%$#ry from the moderators, but it's new coming from you.
