Size of your guy
« on: June 30, 2006, 10:02:03 am »
Well I was messing with my Gostek viewer and it hit me would'nt it be cool to make your guy look buff,skinny,overweight,and normal.because sometimes you run into someone who looks just like you.That sort of gets on my nerves lol.

p.s. dude who said my grammer looks bad is it better?

Your grammar is fine; it's just your misuse/lack of punctuation marks.

I'm sure that shirt color, pants color, hair type & color, necklace type, hat gear type and skin color are enough to distinguish soldats from one other.

And besides, soldats are small.  Who can tell who's "buff" and who's "normal?"

I agree with Eagles. It would be pretty hard to do so. And pointless. Sorry but i'd have to disagree.

I think such a minor detail will be noticable.  Even with as low graphics as soldat has to offer, such details would make the game a bit more fun.  and it doens't even have to interfer with the game play!  same PAO animations, just different looks.  As long as no extremes are reached, this would be fine.

A lot of people will tell you that the size of your guy is the most important factor. Truth be told, it's much more important that you at least know how to handle it. I mean, what if you had a huge guy, you still might have no idea how to use it effectively and you'd be all over the place! Sure if it's too small it might mean any skills would be useless, but who would let their guy get that small in the first place, right?

Overweight or skinny, the gameplay will not be affected!  that's the bottom line, and that's why it would work rather well.

Maybe they can add a Transformers style mode where five Soldats can join together and form an even larger, more powerful Soldat. :)

Your acting like your having a duel and your opponent gets a pistol and you get a spork.
Isn't that pretty much what it is? I dunno wtf a spork is, I suppose it's way weaker than the pistol since you compared that to this.

It would be cool if a fat soldat would have more momentum and thustakelonger for him to slow down in mid air but he goes faster and vice  versa for thin soldat

I suppose i'm kind of biased but anything that increases mod potential is a good idea in my book ;) I have been thinking about this idea before this thread though. did anyone see that animated gif that Vice made where mid animation a big soldat with a minigun came lumbering in? I think it wouldn't be to hard to impliment and would be very neat. Possibly a height feature too, the bulkier you are the taller, so if you are a bulky soldat you would be say a head taller than an average built soldat
