The maximum is lower than it used to be. I've been away from the game for a bit and when I went to mess around in the costume creator, I found that setting it to max gives me a little less than what I used to get, and a lot less for baggy shirts. No more huge baggy sweatshirts, I guess. This is on female characters; I haven't tried huge or male.
It's not a huge thing, but why take away options?
Hey, people of the RP forum!
I've been poking at an idea for an SG. For those of you who've run one, what advice would you give to someone who wants to get one started?
I've got a discord set up and the SG created, thought about what sort of community I want the group to be, structure, sg lore, etc.
What are some unexpected issues that might come up?
How much in the way of story arcs/hooks should I have already set up and ready to go until the group really gets going?
Robotic Arm 3 is missing the Spectrum pattern under chest. Also, could we get spectrum options for robotic arms? Maybe with a techy-looking bit at the shoulder?
I mostly RP in game (not as much lately because I like niche SGs and they're hard to find) but occasionally in discord. In-game is just so much more immersive especially with a well-designed base.
I'm really really not a fan of gated costume pieces, even if it's something easy for lowbies. Getting rid of that was a great decision by HC. I remember grinding for Vanguard pieces back on live and it's not a good direction to go in.
This is amazing news; it's great to see the game going official.
If we have questions about the new user agreements, is this the best thread to ask them in?
I was confused at first about the red name=defeated thing. I guess that's how characters show as defeated in the revamped team UI?
I've kept using the old style because it makes it easier to read names, so hopefully any changes that get made would apply to both.
I've had a couple characters like that and I'm curious what other people use. I've always thought some people still spoke French as a holdover. I haven't thought of any specifics - my current character is a bit of a grammar nut and it'd be nice to know what she might've heard.
Are you thinking of this as a long-term thing? It might be hard to stretch it out much unless the characters in it are sort of semi-NPCs who mostly support other's stories.
I do have a character who spent a bit of time in the Zig and I'd want her to have some contacts from that.
Just to clarify for any new players, there are no server-specific naming rules, and you're absolutely allowed to use numbers or anything not barred by the code of conduct.
