subscription hats

Post by jaguar »

It will be good if subscription hats will have the same bonus as normal ingame hat.
Because I use in game crafted hat and when now I use hat that I received from subscription - it gives nothing.
For example it could be q10 and give the same bonus as q10 hat in game. This will not affect anything and not gave any benefit.
But we will stop loosing bonus that we getting from in game hats.

There'd need to be a special slot for them or some such, in that case.

This is also interesting Idea :) Replace design of any hat by subscription hat, yes it will definitely will be best solution.

But I thinked about spruce cape for example :)
For newbies it is quite useful but new hats is awesome and we use them instead :)
And then we loose this bonus that spruce cape give to newbies.

I agree that cosmetic slots for items would be ideal.

Not sure I like that you could cover up what you're wearing by paying money.

but nobody is gona buy ur cosmetic stuff if it means not using gear that gives stats

I dont think anyone can complain about hiding what you are wearing, as its a much lesser evil than what you guys ended up doing with salem shop:

best clothing for certain slots only available by real money purchase, clothing actually mattered in combat. not pay to win but pay for extra power.

To true. Only hat I've found worth wearing so far is sprucecap, I'd even wear a merchant's cap since it looks better but it doesn't give any stats so I don't wear it. This is a hardcore game, majority of people will definitely not be walking around in cosmetic items that do nothing if they could be wearing ugly things that give better stats. Only current option I see right now is cosmetic slots. Perhaps only let paying subscribers only have access to cosmetic slots?

May be yes, but we also should not loose bonuses from normal hats.

a way to make cosmetic items not get in the way of combat and such is allow people to turn off seeing other people's cosmetic views, or make it so it's only cosmetic for the wearer. that way at least the player can wear their sub-hats
