Clothing Perks

Few of us were talking about how we feel that the outfits need to have some type of level requirement and associated perk to go along with that level of armor, clothes, etc.

Ie... Increased Accuracy, Health, Magazine size, etc.

Granted the EGO ratings adjust some of these perks, but it would be great to have the outfits really standout. Legendary, End Game, etc. Call it what you want.

Thoughts?

I think they should implement this onto Weapons and Shields, instead of outfits.

It would be nice if the outfits had special skill perks instead of being just cosmetic.

i enjoy using the outfits for cosmetic purposes. stats are pointless to increase. i use my costumes to tell me which loadout is what.

I think you should use the suggestion forum. I also think that tying stats to clothing is an awful idea.

I think its a tried and true staple of most games, but I personally like the focus on weapons and perks.

If they add it, cool; if they don't, no big deal

Though stats would be neat, physical attributes for gear seem more realistic. Lighter gear slower, faster, jumps higher,... Things like this could work.

Though changing gear around is fun to mix and match. Some gear is more exclusive then others. Gifts and awards through out game so to show off its neat.

I use the different outfits to remind me load outs too. I look at clothes...

I've got to say I disagree, personally. Here's why: Adding stat boosts to clothing would make it so wearing specific types of clothing are better than others which would have people 'forced' to take certain clothes over others. When this happens you'll likely see everyone wearing the same clothes because they are simply the best ones for certain builds. IMO, let clothes be for personal expression only.

You could just do it dcuo style and allow players to lock and unlock appearance pieces, while still allowing the player to equip better armor "underneath" it

I'm glad I'm not the only one that does this.
