I couldn't have said it better. I'd be happy with simple changes too! Let the hoods ALL be able to come down, and let us play with the colours! DC the game is epic when it comes to costumes. What's so cool in that game is that as armor pieces are discovered, their appearance can be used at any time in the game, no matter what pieces are actually being worn for protection. I'm honestly tempted to go back and play that for a while just for that. The game is quite good besides! But man, my toons in that game are truly EPIC looking!!!!

I appreciate your posts, folks! It's so obvious that it stuns me that the dev's haven't done anything. I further noticed that when I have sent gear from my Republic toons to my Imp toons, the gear changes colour, texture an pattern to something cooler:P You know, it's possible to be the good guy and look cool doing it. Have you seen the Black Hole Jedi gear?? My two Knights would sooner join the Dark Side before wearing that garbage. Makes him look like a futuristic tv antenna.

Scottish Jedii can pull it off without thinking. For the rest, it's a conscious effort. Lol I know I'm right on the customization thing. I think it is a contributing factor for why more people play imperial toons. So many wussy looking republic outfits!!!

How about custom crystals, period!!! We're stuck with so little variety, that everyone wants magenta, or dark blue, or purple! The more people want to be different, the more they become the same.

We wouldn't mind all the Kiras if it was cheaper to buy customization kits for her.

Oh, my bro told me to add a few more things: A. Get rid of skirts for male consulars (if the male sith want to wear them, that's fine). Give some pant options at least!! B. Colour crystals should have a greater vairety. Purple, for instance, is Mace Wendu's (sp?) preference. Why have I only seen it with the Sith? Regardless, different shades would be SO appreciated! Just allow for shade changes!! Artificers could be kept very busy! C. Stupid headgear is such a nuissance! Consulars in particular suffer for this. It is quite unfair.

Alright, I was sent hear by the support staff to make my suggestions on character appearances: Judging by how many in-game credits folks are spending on custom armor, adaptive gear,...stripping PvE/PvP gear of the mods to put in other gear, it's obvious that we as players care a lot about how we look. Heck, we even load up our companions so that they can look cool too, and be able to fight at the same time! The point I want to make is that there is not enough customizability. 1. Luke Skywalker wore black. Why is it that only the Sith are allowed to dominate that colour? 2. I notice that some cloak hoods come down only if the "Show Head Slot" is selected. That is limiting. Not good. 3. We have the "Unify Colours" option. Why can't we have a "change colours" option. Some of the colour schemes are stupid, or the colours we want are on armor pieces that we don't like. Let's face it, looks are not critical to gameplay, but looks create a strong connection between the player and the toon, and gives us the chance to show off. I can't stand jedi rakat/black hole armor, particularly black hole. Because of that, I'm wearing commando armor, which is regrettable, and barely workable to my tastes. What I'm hoping for is an increased opportunity to personalize our toons. This is a social game after all.
