Okay yes im one of those people that want a color change mainly because i chose the wrong blue and i have like 5 sets of 5* armor and all these other things that i love alot.. but sadly were still not allowed to change color... i mean whats wrong with changeing color? its not like im changeing my name.

hey ide be willing to pay cr or ce for color change. ide pay 750ce for this (seems fair).

i just want to change my color because i feel i shouldnt have to stick with it for rest of life!!

So yeah support this thread put in ideas ce cr amounts you would pay blah blah blah..

Also can we have guild mail please.. do you know any online game that doesnt have an guild or team mailing system?? cuz i dont except for this one...

Again please support.

And OOO please incorperate!!

Colour change and guild mail?

Colour change
I like the idea of being able to change your character colour, but I have never agreed to the idea of energy costs, as I am assuming we'll be talking pay-per-change. 750 CE for one change? I'll shoot that down with a Dragunov. I'm more into the idea of paying a big sum for an infinite opportunity to changing colours, but that's mainly because I would find myself in the position of wanting to change colours often to match different costumes, I don't know about you guys. Maybe one of both, but then again.

Guild mail
Has also been suggested many times over, and is a genuinly good idea that I, and other Guild Masters and Officers, think should be implemented. +1

Prices

Prices on Color: Indeed price is a matter as for OOO it always is and will be, but i think we can find a leway between being able to change multiple times by paying alot and for people like me who just want it once and would like a lower price but i do understand where your coming from.

Guild mail: ya im one of those guildleaders thats put up alot of posts about it but try not to put up to much as to anoy people.

Thanks for the feedback.

Any more thoughts???

here

1. When will this ridiculously easily implementable feature be done already?!
2. Not everybody think such a thing would be fair to cost Energy or a fortune. There are way enough things you must spend CE on already. And even if you absolutely must sqeeze out more CE/money from the players, then at least do not act as if such a trivial thing should be a luxury.
3. Not only should there be an option to change color, but as it should match your current looks and style - thats the purpose isn't it?, the variable color should be an equipment option. For example it should have an own slot on your character panel. If it can be saved with Loadout, that would be an even more correct solution.

SUPPORTED...

Since it is cosmetic

It's not crucial to gameplay, so it should cost CE. Not a lot, maybe 100 at first, then it increases the more you do it. The limit should be no more than 1000 though.

i think charging CE that high

i think charging CE that high is ok considering you should only have to change your color once...

"Style is not free, style is expensive"

If after I've spent serious amounts of resources on getting a 5* gear, to not ruin its looks with a completely out of theme color (like green Vog Cub, etc...) is so too much to ask then yes go ahead and make me bankrupt for it... Not to mention chances are good you won't stick with only one gear - even as costume only - for years or so, so color change shouldn't be regarded as a one (or few) time(s) only act. It should be about accessible variety.

@"Since it is cosmetic"
You talk as if some gameplay crucial things like getting high tier gear wouldn't cost you CE (keep in mind that CE and crs are interchangeable, so don't bring up you can get them for loads of crowns).

Either way, one thing is unarguable: those who are drowning in crowns will happily vote for costly features, while those of us for whom CE is still precious will not like it at all, especially for a cosmetic feature. There is nothing more to that.

Well...

i think that paying for the color change is a horrible idea, i mean, like some said, "if i want to change the color one time, but then i buy a new costume and want to change the color another time?" it would be a waste of energy, especially if you are broke.
So i think the color change should be free.

But about the mail thing, i'm neural and don't care much about it.

PASTA POWER!!!!

I approve of changing

I approve of changing colors.

I disapprove of constantly changing willy-nilly.

I say either make the cost somewhat expensive (I'd be willing to pay 1000ce, maybe) or impose a time limit, for example you are only allowed to change colors once every 30 days or more.

Noob armors should just be

Noob armors should just be buyable from merchants. Changing eye color is kinda iffey, seems "personal". The noob armor itself is just like clothing.

Supported, but...

Why would you make the color change so high? It's not like they have an effect on your weapon or armor stats, it just fixes outfits and even the third colors of Accessories, other than the Prismatic series.
If I were to price it, put it no higher than 50 CE.

500 CE and it's a deal! 750 also sounds fair, but Keelan's 50!?!??!?!?! Woo you're looking for a bunch of color changes, aren't ye?!
@Orangeo I have to agree with you on that one, but that's why the suggestion is making it expensive! 750 CE is around 45k CR, which means one Sealed Sword.... now that you think of it, it does sound kind of cheap....

The price is to discourage

The price is to discourage people from swapping colors every single day. 1000CE may sound steep, but first of all, accessories are 750, and second of all you shouldn't need to change color more than once.

sigh

Could you tell me what is so sinful about changing color that there is any bad to it if you do it many times?
Or is changing the color of name you are so afraid of? That's fine, leave the color of the name as it is, we never cared about that anyway. All we want is a color matching our equip and style...
On the other hand, if you really think changing looks in game should be a luxury, then go ahead and tax changing equipment as well! 1 or (oh thats just too cheap) 10 CE per any change of any equipment slot you have. Excellent idea isn't it?
( back to color change )
And lets not forget that the correct way to do it would be either having a seperate equipment slot for color, or having it integrated into Loadout in any other way at least.
