THE LOOK. Faces, helmets, and customization

Many of my big concerns gameplay- and story-wise have been addressed several times by many people, so I will not address them in detail, but merely express my agreement with their sentiments. INSTEAD, I WILL SPEAK OF FANCIES. I think you fine fellows at Bungie did a marvelous job in the art department, and the characters look beautiful. So why do I see them so little? Around the tower, I can sort of see people's faces, but running around in third person is no way to get a good feel of what another player has designed their character to look like. So here is my proposition: in the inspection mode in-game (and here on the app), give players an option to remove the helmets of themselves and other players to see what they look like. The good folk on the art team worked hard to make those models, Bungie, why not show them off? Also, the more customization you offer, the better this will be. I know that since this is an FPS/MMO that aesthetics aren't the highest priority, but you've gone out of your way to make a beautiful world, and I would love to see your players celebrate it through extreme personalization and the ability to show their characters off more. Some more ideas for customization might be scars, freckles, piercings, new markings, etc. A vendor in the tower for such cosmetic changes would be appreciated as well. If part of the reason the story is so sparse is that you wish the players to populate the world with their own stories, added customization options and the ability to actually [i] see[/i] that customization is important. If you would like us to "become legend," give us the tools to do that. Let the players make their legends playing the game, and then let the audience of their tales tie a [i] face[/i] to that legend. [b] Edit[/b] Some more additions to the above from myself and the other wonderful commenters here: - facial hair - Tower cosmetic vendors (barber, tattoo/mark artisan, exo modification center, etc.) - helmet-off cutscene option - cosmetic battle damage based off of in-game achievements (Battle Damage He-Man!)

  • I'm pleased there are a few post regarding this on here! Like everyone says, once you get into the game there are certain aspects of your character that you wish you could re-do as no one wants to start over if they've poured hours into the game. I use and Exo and all I would like to do is re-colour his face, I was happy with it in the beginning but when you see it in the game I'm not that keen anymore. Surely just allowing us to edit our characters at the login screen would be a start :-)
