Instead of having it as this tiny thing on the side of the screen, just put it in the center. You don’t have to change the size, but keep it so that it can’t be moved. Maybe have it flash obnoxious neon colors until they hit ready. Of course, it can still be hidden by the HotM and PvP menus. Yeah, some people will still not hit ready when ready, but it’ll probably increase “ready matches” (matches where everyone hits ready) to at least 50% from what it is now: like, 2%. Doesn’t seem like an incredibly difficult change to interface layout.
If you’re going to keep focusing on releasing outfits over armor skins (though the carapace sets are nice), can there please at least be a way to finish these armor sets?
Just throw them into random karma vendors or give us a PvP reward track — and if it’s a point of exclusivity for people who unlocked these before the wardrobe system, can you please remove them so they can’t be seen by anyone who doesn’t have them?
As someone who likes mixing and matching old armor skins more than covering it all with a new outfit, it’s frustrating looking through everything in the wardrobe only to realize that somethings that look just right are available, just not to you, and may or may not ever will be. Who knows; but you can’t have it. (… is what almost a year of waiting has shown me.)
There’s nothing wrong with the Chef’s Outfit except for some sort of textural defect on the middle of the back near the waist. This is not as noticeable with dark colors or a backpack (stands out as a gray spot with Celestial).
The ears don’t clip through. The hat actually has a cord that goes under an asura’s ear to hold the hat on. It’s especially noticeable if you give each color block it’s own color and view it up close. The side toes on the shoes are even covered. This is one of the almost perfect outfits I’ve seen so far.
I agree. What I meant in my message was to say that it should be handled the same way the chef’s outfit was designed to fit the different races.
I especially like how Slyvari/Asura/Charr just clip right through the headpiece. Definitely.
Someone has to have seen these issues sometime during the design process to fit it on all races/genders, right? Did they just look at these and tell themselves, “good enough”? You did it once with the cook outfit; please figure out a way to make it look like you didn’t just release something with intentional clipping that looks passable (Asura shoes come to mind.)
Normally I wouldn’t complain about something like this … but seeing as it’s a gem item for appearances, it seems silly to not fix an issue of its appearance. Other than that, it’s a great look.
Is there any reason why the Personal Merchant Express and Personal Trader Express summon NPCs that everyone can see but only one person can use, while the Personal Bank Access Express just privately opens the bank panel? Is it much harder to make it so that we aren’t introducing a little more grief into the game, however minor?
(The code was probably to just remove the “use flag” or whatever function is normally on the consumable version, which would explain why the bank access and hair stylist don’t summon NPCs, but it couldn’t possibly take that much time to define personal versions to just to open a merchant/trading post panel, right?)
This is one of the almost perfect outfits I’ve seen so far.
