I decided to test that theory by opening up the normal starting creator and making a couple different characters. Like I said it's ridiculous. f:spew

And I remember Attack on Titan, though I fell behind the updates a long time ago. I keep meaning to reread it but it hasn't happened yet... f:strive

I luv it myself. Your font color is kinda impossible to read though. Is the background on your screen a very dark brown and your font a very dark blue?

It is a game with lots of unrealistic stuff. No need whatsoever to QQ about OPTIONS. If you do not like how that looks, do not make your own character to look like that. Do not be the "omg I do not like looking at THAT" type that kills everyone else's fun. b:bye

I think it's funny.

I never said realistic, I said proportional... as in if your person is has huge arms and torso they can't have stick then legs... We're all humanoid races (unless in tiger/fox form), so I would think that some sort of shape expectation shouldn't be that outlandish.

i don't remember saying that you said 'realistic'

actually, i'm pretty sure that's what i said

b:sweat

I want to play around with this !!! Does that mean you can make a female character that's actually flat or does it only go one way aka being balloony >:?
The mystic's teeny tiny feet are cute~ but the legs probabily not so much.... *can't see them*

Yep. The sliders go both ways. b:chuckle

Yay ! *happy little sways*
For proportional liking people.... make your characters proportional :x I don't see why people who want to have different proportions shouldn't be able to since this was implemented apparentily.

I laugh at you all... you talk about this game as though it in it self is realistic. Why would they need this to be realistic when it is pure fantasy? In real life, there is stick thin, 600lbs fat people... people that look like goblins and hobbits....yet the things about this game that we don't do in real life are things like....turn into tigers, pandas, a fox.....I'm pretty sure that none of you can turn invisible....you surely don't cast spells that actually work. So again I ask....why does a character need to look real in a fake/fantasy game just to make you feel better about yourself? They clearly feel that it is funny and that is all that matters.

We lived in fear of the INI and were disgraced to live in these cages we called titans.

Fixed that for you.
Also, SnK is one of the worst mangas/animes one could possibly like and watch.
b:avoid

I'm really glad I've created my characters long ago. I don't need to panic trying to find proper (healthy?) proportions for them.
As in having fun creating abomina... I mean outworldly creatures, it's not my hobby. I must say that those who wanted to turn their barbs into feligar master/Yansheng/Kashu/Rankar/Kimsa, they now can!

Ah well, if it can amuse some at least... b:laugh

That said, between this and the face-related .ini editing, we sure have a ton of options for character customization now.

Was thinking about the new slider scales thing and realized something, something that might be of great tactical use.

1. One of the reasons why body scaling was bannable to begin with was the possibility of making string-thin proportions (that even the thinnest proportions on the new sliding scaler still do not allow and rightfully so) that would pose as quite an advantage in PvP scenarios due to the target box when mouse-clicking (even though, yes, you can just tab around - but even that is not always 100% fast enough). Obviously there is no advantage in PvE, as computer mobs do not mouse click targets.

2. Now, if utilized correctly; You could have a Barbarian (or any other meatshield type) with the biggest proportions and a Cleric (or any other support type) with the smallest proportions. If such a duo worked well enough together, they could in essence become the greatest of Cata-material. The support class might be untouchable to mouse click targeting, and the tank would be unstoppable. Of course, this would mean their actually having to move slower than they might want, but the tradeoff would be to become a Catabeast! b:shocked

In essence, if a faction could gain enough of the right classes, TW's might look like ~40 Catabeasts. Each would be gigantic and might hide not only support types, but also DD's. Others might simply pose as decoys or Assassin safe points to go back to for whatever reason. Sure, you should always avoid being inside AOE target zones, but this is just a base idea toward something that would need tweaking. Some combination of how TW is usually conducted and some form of Catabeasts will likely become the new "look" of TW's and possibly NW's.

Two problems here.

1: Barbs in tiger/panda form have a set model unaffected by customization changes. This is in addition to the... issues that composition would have against a more balanced enemy in TW.

WTB KoS venos that have a sizeshift size that's even smaller than orange fox because of character-model influence
^was the first thing I thought of when I saw the thing about character models, haha x3 the joke being that forms don't change.

2: Character size doesn't actually matter for targeting purposes. There is a specific area that, regardless of a player's size, can be clicked to select a player. This is why people on a Boa are so hard to target properly. Where we see and want to click isn't the actual location you'd target to select them. Without being on a mount, however, even the maximum possible size wouldn't be enough to throw someone off from where to click. There are issues unrelated to targeting someone, mind you, but the ability to target a player who had odd proportions was not an issue at all.

It would only really be a psychological thing if someone was having difficulty, yea.
