WOOT!! Best part is we won't be crashing after every second fight this year

Wow, I was actually expecting to hear that the scion tight issue was working as intended. Fixing it was a bold move.

sapphiechu

Another free emote? What is going on? Have Cryptic lost their minds? Who'dathunkit???

But seriously (NEVER!), thanks for more goodies and stuff! Always excited to read the release notes on Thursday morning!

For real tho. At this point, I don't mind if you can't fix Personal Mags getting disabled by enemy crowd control. It's nearing a YEAR since promised said device.

Do you really want another salty comic to get it goin?

ealford1985

Guessing widows peak is still....not?

disposableheroes

so basically you worked a few hours on updating some costume pieces an a emote?

ealford1985

Is that all you read?

Just stop talking about it

themightyzenith

But it's a huge subject.

ealford1985

But how do the shrinkers feel? Sounds like overcompensation

originalbaxter

They still haven't fixed the bug that moves all my characters around depending on which one I played last and makes it a real PitA to find the one I'm looking for.

ealford1985

@originalbaxter not a bug but a wonderful quality of life....do you feel it? Do you feel that quality?

I think it's safe to say that everyone wants another one of those... so you just delayed the PMs even further o3o get to drawin'​​

I noticed in the post on the invasion, that the large upright horns, cause i can't remember what they were called isn't in the vender, would it be elsewhere? Thought it was suppose to be in the first week as shown on the page with the sleeveless jackets?

I like the new hair pack, but sadly nothing seems hat friendly

Hat friendly basically means 'painted on', most existing hairs aren't very hat friendly either.

spinnytop

We need a Hat Hair pack. Or a Hair Hat pack.​​

There's not a lot you can do with zero thickness hair. Anything else inherently clips.

I would love a hat hair pack but I'm not sure how much interest there'd be beyond myself

ealford1985

Be such a tedious set to make

flyingfinn

Isn't a sleeveless jacket just a glorified vest?

That's how I just described it, I said they got a Sleeveless Jacket (usually called a vest) in the event store

chaosdrgnz43

Yes. But this looks somewhat different from the existing Vest biker cause "premium quality content"!

flyingfinn

But making current jackets we have, sleeveles, would make them sleeveles jackets.....With half sleeves and full sleeves included, ofcourse.

Some cool Hat Hairs that would show hair from where the hats stop would be great but I can see some problems with a Hat Hair costume pack as not all the bottoms of hats start at the same level on the head and are not the same width on the head. Maybe the devs could consider giving a custom hairstyle that works with each new hat that comes out and at the same time work on custom hairs for hats that exist already, little by little.

spinnytop

The Hat Hair pack idea was already abandoned. We're talking about the Hair Hat pack now. Hats positioned higher, and made bigger, so they can sit on top of hair. It'd be similar to a Fallout mod I made where I just resized a bunch of hats and helmets and flagged them to show hair, so they could be used with hair. Worked out pretty good, sure they could do something similar here. Sure it might be tedious, but the majority of dev work is.​​

Quite a lot, I imagine. It's something I've heard in a lot of peoples' wish lists

thebluelink

Reporting in from the void to also agree that being able to pair hats with more hair styles would be a pretty neat addition, especially if done through some minor resizes and repositioning.
I can only assume that a 'hat slider' (similar in function to the tail/wings sliders) would be difficult to implement - although, not like I know the first thing about the engine myself - but I'd love to just make a tiny character and just be a giant, 'sentient' hat~.

morigosa

So I know the lighting change was supposed to be an improvement - but at least for me, it takes MC from "This looks weird and not really that good" to "This literally makes my eyes hurt from looking at it for more than a few minutes". I'm not sure why it does that, but it's quite unpleasant.

Could we get something like the Noir event's device to turn the lighting effect off, please?
