Looking at what they have planned for “the company” is exciting for a lot of players I’m sure. But I know I won’t be the only long time BF player who doesn’t want to see crazy skins, uniforms, hairstyles, or whatever else we may be able to customize.
My one request would be to have the option to turn OFF these customizations so that I can have a more “vanilla” or “authentic” experience.
Anyone else feel like this would be a nice addition if it isn’t already on the books?
OP probably means to have an option not to see the customization for the other characters, besides himself.
That’d actually be a nice feature, however, if they do customization to monetize the game, then perhaps you will not be seeing this option in game - the other player’s cool customization item might give you an idea in your head to purchase the battlepack next time you will boot up a game.
I meant during actual gameplay. You can see examples of this in world of tanks where you have the option to turn off any skins that aren’t historical. When you choose that option you will see anyone with a non-historical skin as having whatever the default skin is. But if it was a historical camouflage it will still show up.
It would be a small but noticeable change for ppl who want more “band of brothers” instead of “inglorious ¯_(ツ)_/¯”.
I’m sorry but this is way too much colour, like this is making war look pretty. I get that the consoles are able to display such lovely bright colours but this is touché, as if I was watching a Disney kids film. Just my opinion.
Good players that turn off seeing customizations will have an unfair advantage over those that don’t by being able to more easily recognize what class someone on the enemy team is, as each class has always had its own unique default appearance.
If someone wants to play as someone who is completely out of place then we should have the option to not have to see them that way, I agree with this thread, there should be a visual realism filter. It wouldn’t be hard at all to implement i imagine.
This is exactly what I was thinking. Perhaps you could also personally mark certain skins you don’t want to see, because I can stand certain things but I don’t ever want to see people running around with bright face paint or prosthetic limbs in a WWII game
