Hello, my fellow forumites :)

 

I'm starting this topic because I would like to know your opinion about character customization in multiplayer.

 

It's been said that you could not create your character's face or choose a voice, like you would with your Inquisitor from the solo campaign, only that you can craft armor that will have various appearances, depending on the materials you use.

 

Nevertheless, I noticed that the press also talked about skins that you could loot so my question is : can we still change our characters' physical appearance in other ways than simply make them wear a new armor to avoid having clones running around in a dungeon ? Or are they armor/weapons skins with a cool texture and maybe a glowing effect and all that stuff ?

 

What do you think ?

 

What would you like ?

I believe there's a way to change the color of your armor and that there are different two-handed weapons, staffs, shields, etc, though their look isn't purely based around cosmetics.

The weapons can have rune slots, in addition to other slots for customization:

Given that runes have traditionally given weapons a specific glowy effect in the past, it stands to reason that this will continue. I suspect that the pommel and haft slots will also change the visuals on the weapons.

This was actually the one thing I loved about Bound by Flame. Instead of getting armor in 8 pieces (hands, forearms, shoulders...) we get a few 'big' pieces and customize the rest via crafting. Weapons are just as awesome, custom hilts, hand guards, skull attachments. I am so glad Bioware is using this system for DAI.

As long as I am able to "cripple" myself with over-specialized modifications, I'm in.  For example, Critical chance +99% at the expense of everything else.  I don't care if it isn't mathematically optimal, thats what I want!

"Haft"?

To my understanding, they're fixed characters, much like Companions; and we may be able to alter their looks as such (i.e, Solas below) - maybe add/switch a hood/helmet & things like that, but that seems pretty much about it. Facial features, skin, hairstyles/color, etc - I think it's unlikely...

Archaic word for "handle". Often used with respect to weaponry in fantasy fiction.

Ah, I see. I thought it was a major typo or something.

Well if we're going to get technical, there are lots of terms to use though some will have regional variations...

I'm wondering if there are male/female versions of every class or if they are sex locked?

Pretty sure they said the classes are gender locked. The Reaver will always be female, the Keeper will always be female, the Legionnaire will always be male, etc.

I'm still wondering what they meant by "character skins" ... Guess we'll learn more in the coming weeks/months. ^_^

Probably the best combination of two words ever.

 

Classes are confirmed to be sex locked..... sex locked.

Unless you're Japanese.

So our online characters are going to be random in looks?

Nope.  Quite the opposite.

oh well very like ME3 multiplayer then with a few improvments, this will be alright if they have a good variety of classes (and keep adding to them)

For the first time, I'm experiencing this feeling you get when someone associates something with a penis in a thread you made.

Teehee.  Peen block.  

 

As for cosmetic changes, I believe it will just be wardrobe and weapons.  Character inside the clothes stays the same.

I'm going to be happy if they make cosmetic changes based on skins. 

Like the Legionnaire with no helmet, possibly some different armor; even if it's just dyes/colors like ME3 MP.

 

If they do that as the bare minimum, I'll be happy. But if they got on a finer level like with the "Skin Color" and added options like "Jewelry" or "Tattoos" that'd make me squee in joy.

The armor can be upgraded and that so it is likely the appearance can change that way, just not things like hair, or facial features
