So fed up of the Uniform problems. Fix this!

Greetings,

any feedback on whether the long standing problems with our crew uniforms are finally being addressed with Season Eight?

I'm sure you all know which I'm speaking of but just in case:

Colour shades looking different across body slots (on the same person) and / or different crew.

So many options not available from one crewmember to the next because apparently, a piece of cloth worn by one species can't possibly fit another one in the future, even when they are all on your crew and ought to be standardized.

The first four Bridge Officers usually having options none of the rest will have so then you have to either leave it that way or try to change them to whatever you (try) to standardize for the rest.

Finally, being unable to edit "special" characters, sometimes not in even the slightest (such as the Breen BO). Why? I can understand them not taking off their helmet but if they're going to serve aboard my vessel they'll bloody well wear the colours I have set.

This is long overdue and really ruins immersion and causes unnecessary frustration.

Cheers.

    Another thing that needs to be fixed is a glitch with the color customizing of the KDF Liberated Borg Engineer's outfit: Adjusting the color of the pants will cause one of the colors you picked for the torso to synchronize with the pants. Then when you try and change it back, it changes the pants to the color you're trying to get for the torso.

    What?

    Oh yeah, and what about the lighter colors on the pallet + white for fleet emblems - has that been fixed yet, or are they still auto-changing to florescent teal?

    Don't forget the various glitches with the KDF tailor since Season 5. :rolleyes:



    Also, personally, I would like them to get rid of that visual toolbar and bring back the undo button.

    Bump. +1 to any 'fix this broken thing' requests about anything.

    No. Your fun makes everyone else's fun wrong by default.

    Thanks for the replies (even the rather dubious one). :P

    Cheers.

    Agreed, it would be nice to be able to standardize my ship's crew in uniforms. But probably won't happen.

    Fixing tailor issues is near the top of my wishlist, as well.

    To be fair, the devs seem to be slowly chipping away at the list.

    To anyone who wants to report a specific issue with as much detail as possible, I highly recommend the Havelock's Tailor and Costume Issues thread. It attempts to catalogue as many issues as possible, with as much detail as possible, and has received some dev attention.
    You're right. The work here is very important.

    Meow, have you also seen the TNG television series uniforms (standard, not early TNG) female arms clipping at the shoulder-torso border? Specially left arm. It just looks so bad, I always wear the early TNG ones instead. The DS9 TV ones got updated so nicely, also the Nemesis ones. Why not the normal TNG ones? :(

    If one color choice is effecting another use the dice button on both top and bottom, yeah it will mean resetting some clothing parts, but it will break the color connections.

    Not just the uniform problems, but do the devs care about our boffs at all, whatsoever anymore? Feels like soon, all our ship power bar slots, with the faces that are supposed to be our boffs in them, is gonna be replaced by only our own captain images, in there place, soon here, it truly feels like.

    And am STILL waiting on the ability to customize special boffs, such as the embassy rommies in those puke green uniforms, that look like they were hit with an Elachi bad fashion statement ray, along with the abduction beams. I mean still, BLEACH....

    ...Sci Borg, Reman FE Boff, Embassy Rommy Boffs... heck at the rate of it, the danged Jemmy and Breen Boffs to. Isn't it high time our Boffs and crew, were paid some danged well respect, once again?!

    And DEFINITELY fix the KDF STF Honor Guard problem! I DON'T care for having gone through 'all' the elite stf optional runs, to then not use the VERY uniform, I grinded out for, in cooperation with fleetmates that took their own time to help me out! This one iota along, feels like a slap in the face, to me, AND my fleet, with the dang nabbit uniform glitch! I can't even delete the Honor Guard uniform now, to reset it all even. It's just a dead uniform slot. call me, irrate on this one here, bar none, to say nothing of the rest imparted above!

    End of Line. :mad:
