What is with the Tideborn class while it seems very interesting i have one hang up about it...the skin color option is not great. When attempting to make a character i noticed the skin color option only worked on the body and not the face....WTF?

is this a glitch or are they going to change this? Cause i think its really useless to have the customization option if it wont apply to all the body parts...im sorry if this is the wrong place to place this.

    I think you need to have customizations on (in game. system settings/UI). I have no problem changing my skin color. (i'm greenish).

    It's a bug that only occurs if you are using ATI or Intel graphic cards. nVidia cards don't have that problem. Search through the tech support section. You'll find one GM basically saying just deal with it and another mentioning that they are working to fix it, but there are no estimates on ETAs or if it can be fixed.

    it will never be fixed... they promised a fix for the WF with bushy tail, but lo and behold, over a year later and no fix (they have same issue, but in reverse. changing skin color only affects face and tail color)

    that happens when u **** with the ini files... you are NOT able to change tail color

    EDIT: all the problems with our graphics cards with tideborn, including lag and black screening, is completely the devs fault

    Yes and no.

    The game should run ok on all up to date graphics cards, but if someone is using a 5 year old card then they cant expect it to work as good.

    Note: The last game I played had a hell of a lot of trouble with ATI and Intel cards specially laptop ones and they took a while to get the patch right without causing more problems than they solved
